-- Quarter In Line with Company's Expectations
-- Company Reaffirms Full-Year Earnings Target and Raises Target for
Free Cash Flow
-- Strategic Investments Delivering Results
-- New Products and New Business Wins Enhance Performance and Future
Prospects
Fortune Brands, Inc. [NYSE: FO], the company behind leading
consumer brands including Jim Beam, Titleist and Moen, today
reported results for the third quarter of 2010. The company also
reaffirmed its full-year earnings target range of $2.60-2.90 in
diluted EPS before charges/gains versus $2.43 in 2009, and
increased its 2010 free cash flow target range to $625-700 million,
up from $525-600 million.
As anticipated, due to the expiration of the U.S. homebuyer tax
credit as well as the timing of spirits orders, results reflected
pull-forward in demand that benefited the second quarter at the
expense of the third quarter. Accordingly, net sales were up
slightly for the quarter and are up 7% for the first nine months of
2010. Operating income was off 14% in the quarter and is up 33%
year to date. For the quarter, diluted earnings per share were
$0.66 and diluted EPS before charges/gains was $0.72. Fortune
Brands has publicly estimated that the pull-forward in demand
represented 10-15 cents of EPS that was shifted from the third
quarter into the second. On a year-to-date basis, EPS before
charges/gains is up 24%.
"Fortune Brands third-quarter results were in line with our
expectations and the company remains on track to deliver strong
results for the full year," said Bruce Carbonari, chairman and CEO
of Fortune Brands. "Our results reflected the headwinds we publicly
projected three months ago, including the acceleration of demand
into the second quarter due to the expiration of the U.S. homebuyer
tax credit and the timing of spirits orders, higher costs for raw
materials, and the increased strategic investments we're making for
long-term profitable growth. These investments - which include
support for new business we've recently won, new product
innovations, long-term brand building and international growth
initiatives - are already delivering results.
"Our brands continue to perform very well in the marketplace and
are well positioned for the future. In Spirits, new products and
successful strategic investments are fueling momentum in the U.S.
as we see the positive impact of recent initiatives. We're also
making progress in challenging global markets and growing strongly
in priority emerging markets. Even as the home products market has
softened, we're outperforming the market and also winning
profitable new business in the cabinetry, faucet and garage
organization categories that will enhance our prospects in 2011 and
beyond. And in Golf, we've driven year-to-date growth in all
product categories, we're continuing to expand strongly in key
Asian markets, and the fourth-quarter launch of the
advanced-technology new Titleist 910 driver will build on a very
successful year of new product introductions."
For the third quarter of 2010:
-- Net income was $102.6 million, or $0.66 per diluted share, compared to
$0.82 per diluted share in the year-ago quarter.
Comparisons were adversely impacted by net charges of $0.06
per
diluted share in the current quarter and a net gain of $0.05
per
diluted share in the year-ago quarter.
-- Excluding charges and gains in both the current and prior-year
periods, diluted EPS was $0.72, down 6% from $0.77 in the
year-ago
quarter.
-- Net sales were $1.72 billion, up 0.2%.
On a comparable basis - excluding excise taxes, foreign
exchange
and acquisitions/divestitures - total net sales would have been
up
1%.
Comparable net sales by business unit were: spirits up 2%; home
&
security up 1%; golf up 3%.
-- Operating income was $176.8 million.
-- Operating income before charges/gains was $206.4 million, down 3%.
-- Return on equity before charges/gains was 8%.
-- Return on invested capital before charges/gains was 6%.
Outlook for Strong Full-Year Results
"As we look ahead, we continue to expect that the economic
recovery will be gradual and uneven, with the spirits and golf
markets likely to grow in the low-single-digit range for the full
year and the likelihood that our home products market will now be
relatively flat," Carbonari continued. "The proactive steps we took
during the downturn and the investments we're making at the front
end of the recovery have put Fortune Brands in a very strong
competitive position. Trusted brands combined with strong
innovation, customer wins, strategic brand investments and global
expansion initiatives are helping drive broad-based share gains.
The leverage of our lower cost structures is helping the bottom
line, and our sharp focus on cash is helping fortify our balance
sheet.
"Fortune Brands remains on track to deliver strong earnings
growth in 2010 and results within our full-year target range of
$2.60-2.90 versus $2.43 in 2009. Factoring in previously discussed
headwinds, including higher raw materials costs, our increased
strategic investments, and comparisons to last year's improving
results, our results are tracking towards the middle of our target
range. We believe we are well positioned to continue our momentum
in the marketplace, leverage our lower cost structures, and deliver
continued earnings growth and improving returns as the economy
recovers," Carbonari concluded.
The increase in Fortune Brands' target for 2010 free cash flow -
now in the range of $625-700 million - reflects improvements in the
company's working capital position and the timing of capital
expenditures. The company's target represents an
earnings-to-free-cash conversion rate well in excess of 100%.
