NORTH CANTON, Ohio, July 31, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- The Timken Company (NYSE: TKR; www.timken.com), a global technology leader in engineered bearings and industrial motion, today reported second-quarter 2024 sales of $1.18 billion, down 7.1 percent from last year's record level. Organically, sales were down 7.7 percent, with most of the decline attributable to significantly lower renewable energy demand in China. Sales were relatively flat compared to the first quarter on an organic basis and in line with company expectations.

Timken posted net income in the second quarter of $96.2 million or $1.36 per diluted share. This compares to net income of $125.2 million or $1.73 per diluted share for the same period a year ago. The company's net income margin in the quarter was 8.1 percent, compared to 9.8 percent in the second quarter of last year.  

Excluding special items (detailed in the attached tables), adjusted net income in the second quarter was $115.2 million or $1.63 per diluted share. This compares to adjusted net income of $146.1 million or $2.01 per diluted share for the same period in 2023. Adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) in the quarter was $230.2 million or 19.5 percent of sales, compared with $263.0 million or 20.7 percent of sales in the second quarter of last year.

Net cash from operations for the quarter was $124.6 million, and free cash flow was $87.3 million. During the quarter, Timken increased its quarterly dividend by 3 percent and repurchased 360 thousand shares of company stock. In total, the company returned $53.6 million of cash to shareholders through dividends and share repurchases during the quarter.

In May, the company completed the sale of a portion of its stake in Timken India Limited (TIL), generating pre-tax proceeds of approximately $232 million. Timken continues to hold a majority stake in TIL and plans no further sale transactions. As of the end of the second quarter, the company's net debt-to-adjusted EBITDA ratio was 1.9 times, with no significant debt maturities until 2027.

"The Timken team continues to execute well in this dynamic environment, achieving solid second-quarter results that were in line with our expectations," said Richard G. Kyle, president and chief executive officer. "We delivered strong margins in both segments, including excellent performance from our recent acquisitions. And we continued to advance our strategic initiatives during the quarter to strengthen the company for the future."

Second-Quarter 2024 Segment Results

Engineered Bearings sales of $783.4 million decreased 8.6 percent from the same period a year ago. The decrease was driven by lower end-market demand and unfavorable foreign currency translation. Renewable energy saw the most significant organic decline in the quarter, driven almost entirely by continued weakness in China. Among other market sectors, industrial distribution, aerospace and rail shipments were higher compared to the same period a year ago, while off-highway revenue was lower.

EBITDA for the quarter was $163.3 million or 20.8 percent of sales, compared with EBITDA of $185.5 million or 21.6 percent of sales for the same period a year ago. The decrease in EBITDA was driven primarily by the impact of lower volume, partially offset by favorable price/mix and improved manufacturing performance.

Excluding special items, adjusted EBITDA in the quarter was $166.2 million or 21.2 percent of sales, compared with $189.6 million or 22.1 percent of sales in the second quarter of last year.

Industrial Motion sales of $398.9 million decreased 3.9 percent compared with the same period a year ago. The decrease was driven primarily by lower end-market demand, partially offset by the benefit of acquisitions and higher pricing. Organically, most platforms were lower as compared to the prior year, with drive systems and linear motion posting the largest declines.

EBITDA for the quarter was $75.6 million or 19.0 percent of sales, compared with EBITDA of $80.9 million or 19.5 percent of sales for the same period a year ago. The decrease in EBITDA was driven primarily by the impact of lower volume, partially offset by the benefit of acquisitions and favorable selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses.

Excluding special items, adjusted EBITDA in the quarter was $79.7 million or 20.0 percent of sales, compared with $85.9 million or 20.7 percent of sales in the second quarter of last year.

2024 Outlook

Timken is updating its full-year 2024 outlook, with earnings per diluted share now forecasted to be in the range of $5.00 to $5.20 and adjusted earnings per diluted share in the range of $6.00 to $6.20. The company now expects revenue to be down 3 to 4 percent in total from 2023.

"Our outlook reflects our solid first-half performance along with a slightly tempered view on the rest of the year," said Kyle. "We remain focused on delivering resilient performance in 2024 through operational excellence, targeted growth initiatives, and the continued execution of our strategy. In addition, we expect to generate significant free cash flow over the balance of the year, which will further fuel our ability to create shareholder value through disciplined capital allocation."

Kyle concluded, "The company's previously announced CEO succession plan remains on schedule, and we look forward to welcoming Tarak Mehta to Timken as president and CEO in early September. With a strong foundation built on 125 years of innovation and excellence, Timken is well-positioned for the next chapter of profitable growth and success under his leadership."

(1) EBITDA is a non-GAAP measure defined as operating income plus other income (expense) and excluding depreciation and amortization. EBITDA Margin is a non-GAAP measure defined as EBITDA as a percentage of net sales. EBITDA and EBITDA Margin are important financial measures used in the management of the business, including decisions concerning the allocation of resources and assessment of performance. Management believes that reporting EBITDA and EBITDA Margin is useful to investors as these measures are representative of the core operations of the segments and Company, respectively.






(2) Corporate pension and other postretirement benefit related income primarily represents actuarial gains that resulted from the remeasurement of plan assets and obligations as a result of changes in assumptions or experience. The Company recognizes actuarial gains and losses in connection with the annual remeasurement in the fourth quarter, or if specific events trigger a remeasurement. Refer to the Retirement Benefit Plans and Other Postretirement Benefit Plans footnotes within the Company's annual reports on Form 10-K and quarterly reports on Form 10-Q for additional discussion.

(1) Adjustments are pre-tax, with the net tax provision listed separately.
















(2) Impairment, restructuring and reorganization charges (including items recorded in cost of products sold) relate to: (i) plant closures; (ii) the rationalization of certain plants; (iii) severance related to cost reduction initiatives; (iv) impairment of assets; and (v) related depreciation and amortization. On March 26, 2024, the Company announced that Richard G. Kyle, President and Chief Executive Officer ("CEO") of the Company would be retiring from his position as CEO and that Tarak Mehta would be appointed CEO on September 5, 2024. Impairment, restructuring and reorganization charges for 2024 include the acceleration of certain stock compensation awards for Mr. Kyle and other one-time costs associated with the transition. Impairment, restructuring and reorganization charges for 2023 included $28.3 million related to the impairment of goodwill. The Company re-assesses its operating footprint and cost structure periodically, and makes adjustments as needed that result in restructuring charges. However, management believes these actions are not representative of the Company's core operations.
















(3) Corporate pension and other postretirement benefit related income represents actuarial gains that resulted from the remeasurement of plan assets and obligations as a result of changes in assumptions or experience. The Company recognizes actuarial gains and losses in connection with the annual remeasurement in the fourth quarter, or if specific events trigger a remeasurement. Refer to the Retirement Benefit Plans and Other Postretirement Benefit Plans footnotes within the Company's annual reports on Form 10-K and quarterly reports on Form 10-Q for additional discussion.
















(4) Acquisition-related charges represent deal-related expenses associated with completed transactions and any resulting inventory step-up impact.
















(5) Represents the net (gain) loss resulting from divestitures and sale of certain assets.














































(6) Provision for income taxes includes the net tax impact on pre-tax adjustments (listed above), the impact of discrete tax items recorded during the respective periods as well as other adjustments to reflect the use of one overall effective tax rate on adjusted pre-tax income in interim periods.

The following reconciliation is provided as additional relevant information about the Company's performance deemed useful to investors.  Management believes consolidated earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) is a non-GAAP measure that is useful to investors as it is representative of the Company's performance and that it is appropriate to compare GAAP net income to consolidated EBITDA. Management also believes that adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin and EBITDA margin are useful to investors as they are representative of the Company's core operations and are used in the management of the business, including decisions concerning the allocation of resources and assessment of performance.

(1) Impairment, restructuring and reorganization charges (including items recorded in cost of products sold) relate to: (i) plant closures; (ii) the rationalization of certain plants; (iii) severance related to cost reduction initiatives; and (iv) impairment of assets. On March 26, 2024, the Company announced that Richard G. Kyle, President and CEO of the Company would be retiring from his position as CEO and that Tarak Mehta would be appointed CEO on September 5, 2024. Impairment, restructuring and reorganization charges for 2024 include the acceleration of certain stock compensation awards for Mr. Kyle and other one-time costs associated with the transition. Impairment, restructuring and reorganization charges for 2023 included $28.3 million related to the impairment of goodwill. The Company re-assesses its operating footprint and cost structure periodically, and makes adjustments as needed that result in restructuring charges. However, management believes these actions are not representative of the Company's core operations. 











(2) Corporate pension and other postretirement benefit related income represents actuarial gains that resulted from the remeasurement of plan assets and obligations as a result of changes in assumptions or experience. The Company recognizes actuarial gains and losses in connection with the annual remeasurement in the fourth quarter, or if specific events trigger a remeasurement. Refer to the Retirement Benefit Plans and Other Postretirement Benefit Plans footnotes within the Company's annual reports on Form 10-K and quarterly reports on Form 10-Q for additional discussion.











(3) Acquisition-related charges represent deal-related expenses associated with completed transactions and any resulting inventory step-up impact.











(4) Represents the net (gain) loss resulting from divestitures and sale of certain assets.

(Unaudited)












The following reconciliation is provided as additional relevant information about the Company's Engineered Bearings and Industrial Motion segment performance deemed useful to investors. Management believes that non-GAAP measures of adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin for the segments are useful to investors as they are representative of each segment's core operations and are used in the management of the business, including decisions concerning the allocation of resources and assessment of performance.

Reconciliation of Total Debt to Net Debt, the Ratio of Net Debt to Capital, and the Ratio of Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDA:

(Unaudited)





These reconciliations are provided as additional relevant information about the Company's financial position deemed useful to investors. Capital, used for the ratio of net debt to capital, is a non-GAAP measure defined as total debt less cash and cash equivalents plus total shareholders' equity. Management believes Net Debt, the Ratio of Net Debt to Capital, Adjusted EBITDA (see next page), and the Ratio of Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDA are important measures of the Company's financial position, due to the amount of cash and cash equivalents on hand. The Company presents net debt to adjusted EBITDA because it believes it is more representative of the Company's financial position as it is reflective of the ability to cover its net debt obligations with results from its core operations.

Reconciliation of EBITDA, After Adjustments, to GAAP Net Income:

(Unaudited)



The following reconciliation is provided as additional relevant information about the Company's performance deemed useful to investors. Management believes consolidated earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) is a non-GAAP measure that is useful to investors as it is representative of the Company's performance and that it is appropriate to compare GAAP net income to consolidated EBITDA. Management also believes that the non-GAAP measure of adjusted EBITDA is useful to investors as it is representative of the Company's core operations and is used in the management of the business, including decisions concerning the allocation of resources and assessment of performance.
