Management Commentary
“We had a solid quarter with 30 percent growth in EPS despite an $0.11 negative foreign currency effect,” said Jonathan W. Painter, president and chief executive officer of Kadant Inc. “Our diluted EPS from continuing operations was $0.78 in the third quarter of 2015, which exceeded our guidance of $0.70 to $0.72. Cash flows were strong and our operating margin increased to nearly 14 percent of revenue in the third quarter of 2015 compared to 10 percent of revenue in the third quarter of 2014.
“We had strong performance in our Stock-Preparation and Wood Processing Systems product lines, particularly in North America. We were also encouraged by the upward revenue and booking trends in our European businesses. That said, the effects of foreign currency translation negatively impacted our revenue and bookings by $9 million and $10 million, respectively, compared to the third quarter of 2014. Our parts and consumables business continues to be an important focus of ours and revenue from parts and consumables products represented 69 percent of our revenues in the third quarter of 2015.”
Third Quarter 2015
Kadant reported revenue of $91.9 million in the third quarter of 2015, a decrease of $6.8 million, or seven percent, compared with $98.7 million in the third quarter of 2014. Revenue for the third quarter of 2015 included an $8.6 million decrease from the unfavorable effects of foreign currency translation and an increase of $2.4 million from an acquisition compared to the third quarter of 2014. Operating income from continuing operations increased 25 percent to $12.7 million in the third quarter of 2015 compared to $10.2 million in the third quarter of 2014. Operating income included $0.5 million of expense related to restructuring in the third quarter of 2014. Adjusted operating income, a non-GAAP measure, was $12.7 million in the third quarter of 2015 compared to $10.7 million in the third quarter of 2014.
Net income from continuing operations was $8.6 million in the third quarter of 2015, or $0.78 per diluted share, compared to $6.7 million, or $0.60 per diluted share, in the third quarter of 2014. Net income from continuing operations in the third quarter of 2014 included $0.3 million, or $0.03 per diluted share, of after-tax restructuring costs. Adjusted net income, a non-GAAP measure, was $8.6 million, or $0.78 per diluted share, in the third quarter of 2015 compared to $7.0 million, or $0.63 per diluted share, in the third quarter of 2014.

Guidance
“The first nine months of 2015 have positioned us well for a solid year,” Mr. Painter continued. “That said, we now expect lower revenues in our Doctoring, Cleaning, & Filtration and Fluid-Handling product lines compared to our prior guidance, largely due to delays in capital bookings and shipments. In addition, the continued strengthening of the U.S. dollar since our last guidance has negatively impacted our full-year revenue and EPS guidance by an additional $3 million and $0.05, respectively. As a result, we are lowering our full year revenue guidance and now expect full year revenue of $388 to $390 million, revised from our previous guidance of $395 to $400 million. We are lowering our full year guidance for GAAP diluted EPS from continuing operations to $2.95 to $2.98, revised from our previous guidance of $3.05 to $3.11. For the fourth quarter of 2015, we expect to achieve GAAP diluted EPS from continuing operations of $0.79 to $0.82 on revenue of $105 to $107 million. We still expect 2015 to be a record year for GAAP diluted EPS.”

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The non-GAAP financial measures included in this press release are not meant to be considered superior to or a substitute for the results of operations prepared in accordance with GAAP. In addition, the non-GAAP financial measures included in this press release have limitations associated with their use as compared to the most directly comparable GAAP measures, in that they may be different from, and therefore not comparable to, similar measures used by other companies.
In addition to the financial measures prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), we use certain non-GAAP financial measures, including increases or decreases in revenue excluding acquisitions and the effect of foreign currency translation, adjusted operating income, adjusted net income, adjusted diluted EPS, and adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA).
We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures, when taken together with the corresponding GAAP financial measures, provide meaningful supplemental information regarding our performance by excluding certain items that may not be indicative of our core business, operating results, or future outlook. We believe that the inclusion of such measures helps investors to gain an understanding of our underlying operating performance and future prospects, consistent with how management measures and forecasts our performance, especially when comparing such results to previous periods or forecasts and to the performance of our competitors. Such measures are also used by us in our financial and operating decision-making and for compensation purposes. We also believe this information is responsive to investors' requests and gives them an additional measure of our performance.
Revenue included $2.4 million from an acquisition and an $8.6 million unfavorable foreign currency translation effect in the third quarter of 2015 and $6.7 million from an acquisition and a $23.8 million unfavorable foreign currency translation effect in the first nine months of 2015. We present increases or decreases in revenue excluding the effects of acquisitions and foreign currency translation to provide investors insight into underlying revenue trends.
Adjusted operating income and adjusted EBITDA exclude restructuring costs and expense related to acquired inventory and backlog. Adjusted net income and adjusted diluted EPS exclude restructuring costs. These items are excluded as they are not indicative of our core operating results and are not comparable to other periods, which have differing levels of incremental costs or none at all.
Adjusted operating income and adjusted EBITDA exclude:
• | Pre-tax restructuring costs of $0.5 million in the third quarter of 2014 and $0.3 million and $0.9 million in the first nine months of 2015 and 2014, respectively. |
• | Pre-tax expense related to acquired inventory and backlog of $0.2 million and $2.6 million in the first nine months of 2015 and 2014, respectively. |
Adjusted net income and adjusted diluted EPS exclude after-tax restructuring costs of $0.3 million ($0.5 million net of tax of $0.2 million) in the third quarter of 2015.
Adjusted diluted EPS in the third quarters of 2015 and 2014 was calculated using the reported weighted average diluted shares for each period.
Reconciliations of the non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are set forth in this press release.
