Air Products (NYSE: APD) today reported GAAP net income from
continuing operations of $402
million, up 16 percent versus the prior year, and diluted
earnings per share (EPS) from continuing operations of $1.84, up 16 percent versus the prior year, for
its fiscal fourth quarter ended September
30, 2016.
For the quarter, on a non-GAAP basis, adjusted net income from
continuing operations of $441 million
was up 11 percent versus prior year, and adjusted diluted earnings
per share from continuing operations of $2.01 was up 10 percent versus prior year.
Fourth quarter sales of $2,463
million increased one percent from the prior year, as three
percent higher volumes, primarily driven by the Jazan project, more
than offset lower energy pass-through and unfavorable currency
impacts of one percent each. Pricing was largely unchanged from the
prior year.
For the quarter, on a GAAP basis, operating income of
$547 million increased 15 percent and
operating margin of 22.2 percent improved 280 basis points versus
prior year.
Adjusted operating income of $584
million increased 13 percent, and adjusted EBITDA of
$855 million increased nine percent
over prior year. Adjusted operating margin of 23.7 percent improved
260 basis points and adjusted EBITDA margin of 34.7 percent
improved 250 basis points over the prior year. GAAP ROCE of 12.8
percent increased 200 basis points. Adjusted ROCE increased 180
basis points to 13.8 percent. Productivity and operational
improvements drove these results.
Fiscal 2016
For fiscal 2016, sales of $9.5
billion decreased four percent versus prior year, as two
percent higher volumes were more than offset by three percent lower
energy pass-through and three percent unfavorable currency.
Operating income on a GAAP basis of $2.1
billion increased 23 percent, and operating margin of 22.1
percent improved 480 basis points. Adjusted operating income of
$2.2 billion increased 16 percent,
and adjusted operating margin of 23.1 percent improved 400 basis
points. GAAP net income from continuing operations of $1.5 billion improved 18 percent. Adjusted EBITDA
of $3.3 billion improved 10 percent,
and adjusted EBITDA margin of 34.4 percent improved 420 basis
points.
Commenting on the results for the quarter and the year,
Seifi Ghasemi, chairman, president
and chief executive officer, said, "The people of Air Products
continually strive to be the best in the industrial gases industry,
always looking for improvement opportunities and staying focused on
what they can control. They delivered again, with our ninth
consecutive quarter of double-digit adjusted earnings growth and
improved margins across our segments.
"For the year, Air Products delivered adjusted EPS of
$7.55, up 14 percent. We delivered
what we promised one year ago, despite a $0.16 headwind from currency and an economic
environment which was less robust than anticipated. We improved
both adjusted operating and adjusted EBITDA margins by at least 400
basis points and increased our adjusted ROCE by 180 basis points to
13.8 percent. Most importantly, we did this while further improving
safety and thinking like our customers to give them the innovative
products and service they need.
"We also successfully completed the spin-off of Versum Materials
on October 1 and continue to make
progress on the sale of our Performance Materials Division –
strategic moves that will give Air Products an even stronger
foundation going forward. We continue to be very optimistic about
the long-term growth opportunities for our focused industrial gases
business. Air Products is now very well positioned to take full
advantage of these great opportunities," he said.
Fourth Quarter Results by Business Segment
- Industrial Gases – Americas sales of $877 million decreased three percent versus prior
year on lower volumes. Latin
America volumes were down nearly 10 percent, negatively
impacting overall Americas volumes by two percent, while weakness
in North America, primarily in
steel, impacted overall Americas volumes by one percent. Pricing,
energy pass-through and currency were flat versus prior year.
Segment operating income of $225
million increased eight percent over prior year, and
adjusted EBITDA of $352 million
increased seven percent, driven by operational improvements.
Segment operating margin of 25.6 percent improved 250 basis points,
and adjusted EBITDA margin of 40.1 percent improved 350 basis
points over prior year.
- Industrial Gases – EMEA sales of $414 million declined 10 percent versus last
year, with lower volumes reducing sales by four percent and lower
energy pass-through and unfavorable currency both reducing sales by
three percent. Pricing was flat. Segment operating income of
$98 million increased eight percent
from the prior year, and adjusted EBITDA of $154 million increased two percent versus prior
year on strong cost performance and productivity actions. Segment
operating margin of 23.7 percent and adjusted EBITDA margin of 37.2
percent were both up more than 400 basis points over the prior
year.
- Industrial Gases – Asia
sales of $449 million increased five
percent versus prior year, as volume growth of seven percent, from
both underlying base business and new plants, was partially offset
by two percent unfavorable currency. Segment operating income of
$110 million increased five percent
and adjusted EBITDA of $172 million
increased four percent on the benefits from higher volumes and
productivity actions. Segment operating margin of 24.5 percent and
adjusted EBITDA margin of 38.2 percent were roughly flat versus
last year.
- Industrial Gases – Global sales of$157 million increased
$68 million versus prior year,
segment operating income of $23
million increased $25 million,
and adjusted EBITDA of $25 million
increased $26 million. The
improvement was attributable to fourth quarter sales of
$113 million and profits associated
with the Jazan project. The fourth quarter profit was related to
project activity during the full year and includes a cumulative
catch up resulting from a reassessment of reserves associated with
certain project risks.
- Materials Technologies sales of $515 million increased five percent versus the
prior year on seven percent higher volumes, partially offset by two
percent lower pricing. Segment operating income of $139 million was up 19 percent.
Electronic Materials sales of $248
million increased seven percent from the prior year on
higher volumes, driven by Advanced Materials and Delivery Systems.
Adjusted EBITDA of $83 million was up
five percent and operating income of $70
million was up 11 percent versus prior year.
Performance Materials sales of $267
million increased four percent over the prior year, as eight
percent higher volumes were partially offset by four percent lower
pricing, driven by lower raw material costs. Operating margin of
25.3 percent increased 580 basis points and adjusted EBITDA margin
of 27.8 percent increased 550 basis points, driven by productivity
and favorable price/raw material balance.
Non-GAAP results for the Company in the fiscal fourth quarter of
2016 exclude $38.8 million of net
loss, or $0.17 per share, and in the
full fiscal year 2016, exclude $132.5
million of net loss, or $0.61
per share. Non-GAAP results for the Company in the fiscal fourth
quarter of 2015 exclude $52.7 million
of net loss, or $0.24 per share, and
in the full fiscal year 2015, exclude $149.1
million of net loss, or $0.69
per share. See reconciliation of non-GAAP measures starting on page
six.
Outlook
Management has provided the following adjusted diluted EPS
guidance on a continuing operations basis. While it is likely that
we will incur additional costs for items such as business
separation, cost reduction actions, and pension settlements in
future periods, it is not possible, without unreasonable efforts,
to identify the amount or significance of these events or the
potential for other transactions that may impact future GAAP EPS.
Management does not believe these items to be representative of
underlying business performance. Accordingly, management is unable
to reconcile, without unreasonable effort, the Company's forecasted
range of adjusted EPS to a comparable GAAP range.
Excluding Electronic Materials and Performance Materials, Air
Products expects fiscal 2017 first quarter adjusted EPS from
continuing operations of $1.40 to
$1.50, up three to 10 percent versus the comparable prior
year period results, and fiscal 2017 adjusted EPS of $6.25 to $6.50, up nine to 13 percent versus the
comparable prior year results.
Excluding Electronic Materials and including Performance
Materials, Air Products expects fiscal 2017 first quarter adjusted
EPS from continuing operations of $1.60 and $1.70, up
seven to 13 percent versus the comparable prior year period
results, and fiscal 2017 adjusted EPS of $7.10 to $7.35, up nine to 13 percent versus the
comparable prior year results.
The capital expenditure forecast for fiscal year 2017 is
approximately $1.2 billion on a GAAP
and non-GAAP basis.

NOTE: This report contains "forward-looking statements"
within the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities
Litigation Reform Act of 1995, including statements about earnings
guidance and business outlook. These forward-looking statements are
based on management's reasonable expectations and assumptions as of
the date this report is filed. Actual performance and financial
results may differ materially from projections and estimates
expressed in the forward-looking statements because of many factors
not anticipated by management, including, without limitation,
global or regional economic conditions (including, as to the
United Kingdom and Europe, the impact of the recent "Brexit"
referendum) and supply and demand dynamics in market segments into
which the Company sells; the inability to eliminate stranded costs
previously allocated to the Company's Electronic Materials division
after the Company's spin-off of the division and other unexpected
impacts of the spin-off; significant fluctuations in interest rates
and foreign currencies from that currently anticipated; future
financial and operating performance of major customers;
unanticipated contract terminations or customer cancellations or
postponement of projects and sales; asset impairments due to
economic conditions or specific events; ability to protect and
enforce the Company's intellectual property rights; unexpected
changes in raw material supply and markets; the impact of price
fluctuations in natural gas and disruptions in markets and the
economy due to oil price volatility; the ability to recover
increased energy and raw material costs from customers; costs and
outcomes of litigation or regulatory investigations; the success of
productivity and operational improvement programs; the timing,
impact, and other uncertainties of future acquisitions or
divestitures; political risks, including the risks of unanticipated
government actions; acts of war or terrorism; the impact of changes
in environmental, tax or other legislation and regulatory
activities in jurisdictions in which the Company and its affiliates
operate; and other risk factors described in the Company's Form
10-K for its fiscal year ended September 30,
2015. The Company disclaims any obligation or undertaking to

* Presented below are reconciliations of the reported GAAP
results to the non-GAAP measures.
RECONCILIATION OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL
MEASURES
(Millions of dollars unless otherwise indicated,
except for share data)
The Company has presented certain financial measures on a
non-GAAP ("adjusted") basis and has provided a reconciliation to
the most directly comparable financial measure calculated in
accordance with GAAP. These financial measures are not meant to be
considered in isolation or as a substitute for the most directly
comparable financial measure calculated in accordance with GAAP.
The Company believes these non-GAAP measures provide
investors, potential investors, securities analysts, and others
with useful information to evaluate the performance of the business
because such measures, when viewed together with our financial
results computed in accordance with GAAP, provide a more complete
understanding of the factors and trends affecting our historical
financial performance and projected future results.
In many cases, our non-GAAP measures are determined by adjusting
the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure to exclude
certain disclosed items ("non-GAAP adjustments") that we believe
are not representative of the underlying business performance. For
example, Air Products is currently executing its strategic plan to
restructure the Company and to focus on the Company's core
Industrial Gases businesses, which has and will continue to result
in significant disclosed items that we believe are important for
investors to understand separately from the performance of the
underlying business. The tax impact of our non-GAAP adjustments
reflects the expected current and deferred income tax expense
impact of the transactions and is impacted primarily by the
statutory tax rate of the various relevant jurisdictions and the
taxability of the adjustments in those jurisdictions. In evaluating
these financial measures, the reader should be aware that we may
incur expenses similar to those eliminated in this presentation in
the future. Investors should also consider the limitations
associated with these non-GAAP measures, including the potential
lack of comparability of these measures from one company to
another.

(A)Operating margin is calculated by
dividing operating income by sales.
|
|
(B)The tax
impact of our non-GAAP adjustments reflects the expected current

impacted primarily by the statutory tax rate of the various
relevant jurisdictions and the taxability of the adjustments in
those jurisdictions.
|
|
(C)Refer
to Note 1, Materials Technologies Separation, for additional
information.
|
|
(D)Income
from continuing operations before taxes impact of $6.9 and $16.6 in
2016 and 2015, respectively.
|

(E)Reflected on the consolidated income
statements in "Other income (expense), net."

ADJUSTED EBITDA
We define Adjusted EBITDA as income from continuing operations
(including noncontrolling interests) excluding certain disclosed
items, which the Company does not believe to be indicative of
underlying business trends, before interest expense, income tax
provision, and depreciation and amortization expense. Adjusted
EBITDA provides a useful metric for management to assess operating
performance.
Below is a reconciliation of Income from Continuing Operations
on a GAAP basis to Adjusted EBITDA:

CAPITAL EXPENDITURES
We utilize a non-GAAP measure in the computation of capital
expenditures and include spending associated with facilities
accounted for as capital leases. Certain contracts associated with
facilities that are built to provide product to a specific customer
are required to be accounted for as leases, and such spending is
reflected as a use of cash within cash provided by operating
activities if the arrangement qualifies as a capital lease.
Below is a reconciliation of capital expenditures on a GAAP
basis to a non-GAAP measure:

We expect capital expenditures for fiscal year 2017 to be
approximately $1,200 on a GAAP and
non-GAAP basis.
RETURN ON CAPITAL EMPLOYED (ROCE)
Return on capital employed (ROCE) is calculated on a continuing
operations basis as earnings after-tax divided by five-quarter
average total capital. Earnings after-tax is defined as the sum of
net income from continuing operations attributable to Air Products,
interest expense, after-tax, at our effective quarterly tax rate,
and net income attributable to noncontrolling interests. On a
non-GAAP basis, the GAAP measure has been adjusted for the impact
of the disclosed items detailed below. Total capital consists of
total debt, total equity, and redeemable noncontrolling interest
less assets of discontinued operations.

OUTLOOK
We completed the spin-off of EMD as Versum Materials, Inc. on
1 October 2016. As a result, the
historical results of EMD will be presented as a discontinued
operation beginning in fiscal year 2017. Management has provided
the following adjusted diluted EPS guidance on a continuing
operations basis and provided an estimate of the comparable prior
year period accordingly. While we continue to evaluate the progress
of the sale of the PMD division to determine when it should be
presented as a discontinued operation, we have provided an outlook
and an estimate of the comparable prior year period excluding this
division as well, should it become a discontinued operation in
fiscal year 2017. It is likely that we will incur additional costs
for items such as business separation, cost reduction actions, and
pension settlements in future periods. However, it is not possible,
without unreasonable efforts, to identify the amount or
significance of these events or the potential for other
transactions that may impact future GAAP EPS. Management does not
believe these items to be representative of underlying business
performance. Accordingly, management is unable to reconcile,
without unreasonable effort, the Company's forecasted range of
adjusted EPS on a continuing operations basis to a comparable GAAP
range.

AIR PRODUCTS AND CHEMICALS, INC. and
Subsidiaries
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
(Millions of dollars, unless otherwise indicated)
1. MATERIALS TECHNOLOGIES SEPARATION
On 16 September 2015, the Company
announced plans to separate its Materials Technologies business,
which contains two divisions, Electronic Materials (EMD) and
Performance Materials (PMD), into an independent publicly traded
company and distribute to Air Products shareholders all of the
shares of the new public company in a tax‑free distribution (a
"spin-off"). Versum Materials, LLC, or Versum, was formed as the
new company to hold the Materials Technologies business subject to
the spin-off. On 6 May 2016, the
Company entered into a definitive agreement to sell certain
subsidiaries and assets comprising the PMD division to Evonik
Industries AG for $3.8 billion in
cash and the assumption of certain liabilities. As a result, the
Company moved forward with the planned spin-off of Versum
containing only the EMD division.
In fiscal year 2016, we incurred separation costs of
$52.2 ($48.3 after-tax, or $.22 per share), primarily related to legal,
advisory, and tax costs associated with these transactions. The
costs are reflected on the consolidated income statements as
"Business separation costs." A significant portion of these costs
were not tax deductible because they were directly related to the
plan for the tax‑free spin‑off of Versum. Our income tax provision
includes additional tax expense related to the separation of
$51.8 ($.24 per share), of which $45.7 resulted from a dividend declared during
the third quarter of 2016 to repatriate $443.8 from a subsidiary in South Korea to the U.S. Previously, most of
these foreign earnings were considered to be indefinitely
reinvested.
On 30 September 2016, in
anticipation of the spin-off, Versum entered into certain financing
transactions to allow for a cash distribution of $550.0 and a distribution in-kind of notes issued
by Versum with an aggregate principal amount of $425.0 to Air Products. Air Products then
exchanged these notes with certain financial institutions for
$418.3 of Air Products' outstanding
commercial paper. The exchange resulted in a loss of $6.9 ($4.3
after-tax, or $.02 per share) and has
been reflected on the consolidated income statements as "Loss on
extinguishment of debt." This loss is deductible for tax purposes.
This non‑cash exchange was excluded from the consolidated
statements of cash flows. On 1 October
2016, Air Products completed the separation of its EMD
division through the spin-off of Versum. As a result, the
historical results of EMD will be presented as a discontinued
operation beginning in fiscal year 2017.
The historical results of the PMD division will be reflected as
a discontinued operation when it becomes probable for the sale to
occur and actions required to meet the plan of sale indicate that
it is unlikely that significant changes will occur. The PMD
division is not classified as held for sale due to certain
conditions of the sale, including regulatory and anti-trust
requirements. We continue to evaluate the progress of the sale of
the PMD division to determine when it should be presented as a
discontinued operation.
2. DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS
On 29 March 2016, the Board of
Directors approved the Company's exit of its Energy-from-Waste
(EfW) business. As a result, efforts to start up and operate its
two EfW projects located in Tees Valley, United Kingdom, have been discontinued. The
decision to exit the business and stop development of the projects
was based on continued difficulties encountered and the Company's
conclusion, based on testing and analysis completed during the
second quarter of fiscal year 2016, that significant additional
time and resources would be required to make the projects
operational. In addition, the decision allows the Company to
execute its strategy of focusing resources on its core Industrial
Gases business. As a result, the EfW segment has been presented as
a discontinued operation. Prior year EfW business segment
information has been reclassified to conform to current year
presentation. During the second quarter of fiscal year 2016, a loss
on disposal of $945.7 ($846.6 after-tax) was recorded, primarily to
write down assets to their estimated net realizable value and
record a liability for plant disposition costs. Income tax benefits
related only to one of the projects, as the other did not qualify
for a local tax deduction. The loss from discontinued operations,
net of tax also includes land lease costs, commercial and
administrative costs, and costs incurred for ongoing project exit
activities.
3. COST REDUCTION ACTIONS
For the three and twelve months ended 30
September 2016, we recognized an expense of $11.1 ($7.6
after-tax, or $.03 per share) and
$33.9 ($24.0 after-tax, or $.11 per share), respectively, for severance and
other benefits related to cost reduction actions. During fiscal
year 2016, the cost reduction actions resulted in the elimination
of approximately 700 positions. The expenses related primarily to
the Industrial Gases – Americas and the Industrial Gases – EMEA
segments.
4. PENSION SETTLEMENT
Certain of our pension plans provide for a lump sum benefit
payment option at the time of retirement, or for corporate
officers, six months after their retirement date. A participant's
vested benefit is considered settled upon cash payment of the lump
sum. We recognize pension settlement losses when cash payments
exceed the sum of the service and interest cost components of net
periodic pension cost of the plan for the fiscal year. For the
three and twelve months ended 30 September 2016, we recognized
pension settlement losses of $2.8
($1.9 after-tax, or $.01 per share) and $6.4 ($4.1
after-tax, or $.02 per share),
respectively, to accelerate recognition of a portion of actuarial
losses deferred in accumulated other comprehensive loss primarily
associated with the U.S. Supplementary Pension Plan.
5. BALANCE SHEET CLASSIFICATION OF DEFERRED TAXES
In November 2015, the Financial
Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued guidance to simplify the
presentation of deferred income taxes by requiring that all
deferred tax liabilities and assets be classified as noncurrent on
the balance sheet. As of the first quarter of fiscal year 2016, we
adopted this guidance on a retrospective basis. Accordingly, prior
year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year
presentation. The guidance, which did not change the existing
requirement to net deferred tax assets and liabilities within a
jurisdiction, resulted in a reclassification adjustment that
increased noncurrent deferred tax assets by $13.7 and decreased noncurrent deferred tax
liabilities by $99.9 as of
30 September 2015.
