Cummins Reports Third Quarter 2022 Results – I wish I had more to offer

COLUMBUS, Ind.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Cummins Inc. (NYSE: CMI) today reported results for the third quarter of 2022.

Third quarter revenues in total were $7.3 billion. Excluding the contribution of the Meritor, Inc. business, the acquisition of which was completed on August 3, 2022, third quarter revenues were $6.6 billion, representing an increase of 11 percent from the same quarter in 2021. Sales in North America increased 19 percent and international revenues decreased 1 percent compared to the same quarter in 2021, as strong demand across all global markets was offset by a market slowdown in China, as well as Russia, where operations have been suspended indefinitely.

“During the third quarter of 2022, Cummins advanced its growth strategy most notably with the completion of the acquisition of Meritor, and we have been excited to welcome our new colleagues into our company,” said President and CEO Jennifer Rumsey. “Demand from customers remains strong, reflecting the quality and performance of our products and robust conditions in most markets except China. EBITDA for the third quarter improved year-over-year but declined compared to the second quarter of 2022, reflecting weaker joint venture earnings in China, a one-time bonus to employees to recognize their relentless commitment to meeting customer demand in challenging conditions, and costs associated with both the Meritor acquisition and the planned separation of our Filtration business. We expect results for Meritor and Cummins in total to improve in the fourth quarter.”

Net income attributable to Cummins in the third quarter was $400 million, or $2.82 per diluted share. Excluding the Meritor business and related acquisition and integration costs, net income in the third quarter was $456 million, or $3.21 per diluted share, compared to $534 million, or $3.69 per diluted share, in 2021. The tax rate in the third quarter was 32.7 percent including $57 million, or $0.40 per diluted share, of unfavorable discrete items, primarily related to the planned separation of the Filtration business.

Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) in the third quarter was $884 million, or 12.1 percent of sales. Excluding the Meritor business and related acquisition and integration costs, EBITDA was $907 million, or 13.8 percent of sales, compared to $862 million, or 14.4 percent of sales, a year ago. Third quarter results include costs of $16 million, or $0.09 per diluted share, related to the separation of the Filtration business. In addition, to recognize the extraordinary efforts by employees during the challenges over the last several years, as well as promote retention in a period of tight labor markets, a one-time employee recognition bonus was announced and recorded during the third quarter, which had a cost impact of $56 million.

The third quarter results for the company included two months of operations following the acquisition of Meritor. Meritor results within the third quarter include $737 million in revenue, EBITDA of $2 million and GAAP¹ net loss of $37 million. Results of Meritor include an inventory valuation adjustment as required by purchase accounting, which resulted in a negative impact of $32 million. Third quarter results also include $25 million, or $0.13 per diluted share, of acquisition related costs, which consist of consulting and banker fees, and employee separation and retention payments. EBITDA for Meritor operations, excluding the purchase accounting and acquisition and integration costs, was $54 million in the third quarter, or 7.3 percent of sales.

Updated 2022 Outlook:

Based on its current forecast, excluding the Meritor business, Cummins is providing the following update of its outlook for the full year 2022:

Full year 2022 revenue guidance is being maintained, with revenue expected to be up 8 percent.
Full year 2022 EBITDA is now expected to be approximately 15.0 percent of sales, excluding the Meritor business and related acquisition and integration costs, the impacts of the indefinite suspension of our operations in Russia and the costs associated with preparing for the expected separation of our Filtration business. This is below the company’s previous guidance of approximately 15.5 percent of sales and reflects an improvement from the third quarter to the fourth quarter.
The company continues to expect to return approximately 50 percent of Operating Cash Flow to shareholders in 2022 in the form of dividends and share repurchases.

Cummins expects revenues of the Meritor business from the August 3 completion of the acquisition through the end of 2022 will be between $1.7 billion to $1.9 billion. During the same period, EBITDA from the Meritor business is expected to be approximately 4.5 percent of sales based upon the U.S. GAAP results.

Third Quarter 2022 Highlights:

On August 3, Cummins completed the acquisition of Meritor, Inc., a leading global supplier of drivetrain, mobility, braking, aftermarket and electric powertrain solutions for commercial vehicle and industrial markets. The integration of Meritor’s people, products and capabilities in axle and brake technology will position Cummins as a leading provider of integrated powertrain solutions across internal combustion and electric power applications. The acquisition of Meritor is expected to generate annual pre-tax run-rate synergies of approximately $130 million by year three after closing, anticipated to be comprised of, among other things, SG&A savings, supply chain operations and facilities optimization.
The company announced several collaborations that further enable our customers to achieve their decarbonization goals. During the third quarter, Cummins announced collaborations with Werner Enterprises, Transport Enterprise Leasing (TEL) and Versatile to deliver 15-liter hydrogen internal combustion engines. The X15H hydrogen engine, part of Cummins’ fuel agnostic platform, will enable a more-timely solution to reduce carbon emissions by providing customers with an option that has powertrain installation commonality and end user familiarity.
The New Power business continued to expand its green hydrogen presence globally. Cummins announced it will expand PEM electrolyzer manufacturing capacity at its Oevel, Belgium, factory to 1 gigawatt (GW). The company also announced it will begin producing electrolyzers in the United States, underscoring the company’s continued dedication to advancing the nation’s green hydrogen economy. Electrolyzer production will take place in Fridley, Minnesota, starting at 500 megawatts (MW) of manufacturing capacity annually, scalable to 1 gigawatt (GW) in the future. In addition to electrolyzer capacity expansion, the business successfully launched the Cummins HD120 fuel cell system in China by delivering 52 units to the Lin-gang Government for a bus application.
Cummins published its 19^th annual Sustainability Progress Report, including the company’s first update on progress on Cummins’ 2030 environmental goals aligned to its PLANET 2050 environmental strategy.
Progress continues to be made on the planned separation of the Filtration business.
The company increased its quarterly dividend from $1.45 to $1.57 per share. Cummins has paid higher annual dividends to shareholders for 13 consecutive years.

Presentation of Non-GAAP Financial Information

EBITDA is a non-GAAP measure used in this release and is defined and reconciled to what management believes to be the most comparable GAAP measure in a schedule attached to this release, except for forward-looking measures of EBITDA where a reconciliation to the corresponding GAAP measures is not available due to the variability, complexity and limited visibility of the non-cash items that are excluded from the non-GAAP outlook measure. Cummins presents this information as it believes it is useful to understanding the Company’s operating performance, and because EBITDA is a measure used internally to assess the performance of the operating units.

Webcast information

Cummins management will host a teleconference to discuss these results today at 10 a.m. EST. This teleconference will be webcast and available on the Investor Relations section of the Cummins website at www.cummins.com.

⁽¹⁾ Includes a $28 million impairment of our joint venture with KAMAZ and $3 million of royalty charges as part of our costs associated with the suspension of our Russian operations. In addition, on February 7, 2022, we purchased Westport Fuel System Inc.’s stake in Cummins Westport Joint Venture.

ACQUISITION

On August 3, 2022, we completed the acquisition of Meritor whereby we paid $36.50 per share for each outstanding share of Meritor, a global leader of drivetrain, mobility, braking, aftermarket and electric powertrain solutions for commercial vehicle and industrial markets. The total purchase price, including debt that was retired on the closing date of $248 million, was $2.9 billion. In addition, we assumed $1.0 billion of additional debt, of which $0.9 billion was retired prior to the end of the third quarter. The acquisition was funded with a combination of $2.0 billion in new debt, cash on hand and additional commercial paper borrowings.

INCOME TAXES

Our effective tax rate for 2022 is expected to approximate 22.0 percent (increased 0.5 percent from prior quarter), excluding any discrete items that may arise.

Our effective tax rate for the three months ended September 30, 2022, was 32.7 percent and contained unfavorable discrete tax items of $57 million, or $0.40 per share, primarily due to $51 million of unfavorable tax costs associated with internal restructuring ahead of the planned separation of our filtration business and $10 million of unfavorable return to provision adjustments, partially offset by $4 million of net favorable other discrete tax items.

Our effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, was 24.6 percent and contained unfavorable discrete tax items of $52 million, or $0.37 per share, primarily due to $69 million of unfavorable tax costs associated with internal restructuring ahead of the planned separation of our filtration business and $10 million of unfavorable return to provision adjustments, partially offset by $27 million of favorable changes in tax reserves.

Our effective tax rate for the three months ended October 3, 2021, was 19.9 percent and contained favorable discrete items of $11 million, or $0.08 per share, primarily due to a $16 million favorable release of tax reserves associated with the settlement of tax positions, partially offset by $5 million of unfavorable return to provision adjustments.

Our effective tax rate for the nine months ended October 3, 2021, was 21.1 percent and contained favorable discrete items of $8 million, or $0.05 per share, primarily due to a $18 million favorable release of tax reserves associated with the settlement of tax positions, partially offset by $10 million of unfavorable statutory changes in tax rates (mostly in the U.K.).

CUMMINS INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
FINANCIAL MEASURES THAT SUPPLEMENT GAAP
(Unaudited)

Reconciliation of Non GAAP measures – Earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization and noncontrolling interests (EBITDA)

We believe EBITDA is a useful measure of our operating performance as it assists investors and debt holders in comparing our performance on a consistent basis without regard to financing methods, capital structure, income taxes or depreciation and amortization methods, which can vary significantly depending upon many factors. We believe EBITDA excluding special items is a useful measure of our operating performance without regard to the Meritor acquisition and related purchase price accounting adjustments, as well as acquisition and integration costs. This statement excludes forward looking measures of EBITDA where a reconciliation to the corresponding GAAP measures is not available due to the variability, complexity and limited visibility of non-cash items that are excluded from the non-GAAP outlook measure.

EBITDA is not in accordance with, or an alternative for, accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP) and may not be consistent with measures used by other companies. It should be considered supplemental data; however, the amounts included in the EBITDA calculation are derived from amounts included in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Net Income. Below is a reconciliation of “Net income attributable to Cummins Inc.” to EBITDA for each of the applicable periods:
