RESULTS FOR THE SECOND QUARTER FISCAL 2016
EnerSys Reports Second Quarter Fiscal 2016 Results
Reading, PA, USA, November 2, 2015 -- EnerSys (NYSE: ENS) the global leader in stored energy solutions for industrial applications, announced today results for its second quarter of fiscal 2016, which ended on September 27, 2015.
Net earnings attributable to EnerSys stockholders (“Net earnings”) for the second quarter of fiscal 2016 were $40.0 million, or $0.87 per diluted share, including an unfavorable highlighted net of tax impact of $0.10 per share from a charge of $2.0 million for restructuring plans, $2.9 million for legal proceedings charge, net, $0.6 million for ERP system implementation and $0.2 million for fees related to acquisition activities, partially offset by a tax benefit of $1.0 million related to accelerated stock-based compensation of senior executives.
The Net earnings of $0.87 per diluted share compares to Net earnings of $1.16 per diluted share for the second quarter of fiscal 2015, which included a favorable highlighted net of tax impact of $0.10 per share impact from a legal accrual reversal, net of professional fees of $9.9 million and gain of $2.0 million in connection with the disposition of our equity interest in Altergy, pursuant to a legal settlement, offset by charges of $1.4 million for restructuring and other exit costs, $5.3 million for stock-based compensation of senior executives, $0.5 million for ERP system implementation and $0.1 million for fees related to acquisition activities.
Excluding these highlighted items, adjusted Net earnings per diluted share for the second quarter of fiscal 2016, on a non-GAAP basis were $0.97, which exceeds the guidance of $0.92 to $0.96 per diluted share given by the Company on August 5, 2015. These earnings compare to the prior year second quarter adjusted Net earnings of $1.06 per diluted share. Please refer to the section included herein under the heading “Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” for a discussion of the Company’s use of non-GAAP adjusted financial information.
Net sales for the second quarter of fiscal 2016 were $569.1 million, a decrease of 10% from the prior year second quarter net sales of $629.9 million and a 1% sequential quarterly increase from the first quarter of fiscal 2016 net sales of $562.1 million. The 10% decrease compared to prior year quarter was largely the result of a 9% decrease due to foreign currency translation impact and a 3% decrease in organic volume, partially offset by a 1% increase each from pricing and acquisitions. The 1% increase in the current quarter compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2016 was the result of a 1% increase each from pricing and acquisitions, partially offset by a 1% foreign currency translation impact.
The Company’s operating results for its business segments for the second quarters of fiscal 2016 and 2015 are as follows:

Net earnings for the six months of fiscal 2016 were $88.4 million, or $1.91 per diluted share, including an unfavorable net of tax impact of $0.06 per share from a charge of $2.9 million for restructuring plans, $2.9 million for legal proceedings charge, net, $1.1 million for ERP system implementation and $0.4 million for fees related to acquisition activities, partially offset by a gain of $3.3 million relating to the sale of a facility in our Asia segment and a tax benefit of $1.0 million related to accelerated stock-based compensation of senior executives.
Net earnings for the six months of fiscal 2015 were $105.5 million, or $2.15 per diluted share, including a favorable net of tax impact of $0.07 per share from a legal accrual reversal, net of professional fees of $9.9 million and gain of $2.0 million in connection with the disposition of our equity interest in Altergy, pursuant to a legal settlement, offset by charges of $2.7 million for restructuring and other exit costs, $5.3 million for stock-based compensation of senior executives, $0.5 million for ERP system implementation and $0.3 million for fees related to acquisition activities.
Adjusted Net earnings for the six months of fiscal 2016, on a non-GAAP basis, were $1.97 per diluted share. This compares to the prior year six months adjusted Net earnings of $2.08 per diluted share. Please refer to the section included herein under the heading “Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” for a discussion of the Company's use of non-GAAP adjusted financial information.

The 11% decrease was largely the result of a 9% decrease due to foreign currency translation impact and a 3% decrease in organic volume, partially offset by a 1% increase from acquisitions.

"Our adjusted earnings per share of $0.97 for our second quarter exceeded the range of our previous guidance of $0.92 to $0.96,” stated John D. Craig, chairman and chief executive officer of EnerSys. “We continue to experience a global reserve power spending pause and have taken actions to reduce our manufacturing and SG&A costs until our order rate picks up. Our current order intake and backlog remain positive in motive power. Our third quarter guidance for non-GAAP adjusted Net earnings per diluted share is $0.90 to $0.94, which excludes an expected charge of $0.06 from our ongoing restructuring programs, ERP system implementation and acquisition expenses.”
Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This press release contains financial information determined by methods other than in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, ("GAAP"). EnerSys' management uses the non-GAAP measure “adjusted Net Earnings” in their analysis of the Company's performance. This measure, as used by EnerSys in past quarters and years, adjusts Net Earnings determined in accordance with GAAP to reflect changes in financial results associated with the Company's restructuring initiatives and other highlighted charges and income items. Management believes the presentation of this financial measure reflecting these non-GAAP adjustments provides important supplemental information in evaluating the operating results of the Company as distinct from results that include items that are not indicative of ongoing operating results; in particular, those charges that the Company incurs as a result of restructuring activities, impairment of goodwill and indefinite-lived intangibles and those charges and credits that are not directly related to operating unit performance, such as fees and expenses related to acquisition activities, stock-based compensation of senior executives, significant legal proceedings, ERP system implementation and tax valuation allowance changes. Because these charges are not incurred as a result of ongoing operations or are incurred as a result of a potential or previous acquisition, they are not a helpful measure of the performance of our underlying business particularly in light of their unpredictable nature. This non-GAAP disclosure has limitations as an analytical tool, should not be viewed as a substitute for Net Earnings determined in accordance with GAAP, and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of the Company's results as reported under GAAP, nor is it necessarily comparable to non-GAAP performance measures that may be presented by other companies. Management believes that this non-GAAP supplemental information will be helpful in understanding the Company's ongoing operating results. This supplemental presentation should not be construed as an inference that the Company's future results will be unaffected by similar adjustments to Net Earnings determined in accordance with GAAP.
Included below is a reconciliation of non-GAAP adjusted financial measures to preliminary amounts. Non-GAAP adjusted Net earnings are calculated excluding restructuring and other highlighted charges and credits. The following tables provide additional information regarding certain non-GAAP measures:
