Cummins Reports Results for the Second Quarter of 2014

COLUMBUS, IN -- (Marketwired) -- 07/28/14 -- Cummins Inc. (NYSE: CMI)

  • Second quarter revenues of $4.8 billion, EBIT of 13.6 percent of sales on stronger North American truck markets
  • Full year revenue expected to grow between 8 and 11 percent and EBIT to be in the range of 12.75 to 13.25 percent of sales

Cummins Inc. (NYSE: CMI) today reported results for the second quarter of 2014.

Second quarter revenue of $4.8 billion increased 7 percent from the same quarter in 2013. The increase year-over-year was driven by stronger demand in on-highway markets and distributor acquisitions in North America.

Revenues in North America increased 14 percent while international sales decreased 1 percent compared to the second quarter a year ago. Within international markets, lower revenues in Mexico, Brazil and India offset stronger demand in China.

Earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) were $657 million for the second quarter or 13.6 percent of sales. This compares to $621 million or 13.7 percent of sales a year ago.

Net income attributable to Cummins in the second quarter was $446 million ($2.43 per diluted share), compared to $414 million ($2.20 per diluted share) in the second quarter of 2013.

"Demand is growing in on-highway markets in North America this year as the economy improves and we have gained market share in medium duty truck and bus markets. Our Components business delivered very strong results in the second quarter generating record sales and profits," said Chairman and CEO Tom Linebarger. "Earlier this month we raised the quarterly dividend by 25 percent and the Board of Directors also approved a new $1 billion share repurchase program, consistent with our commitment to return 50 percent of operating cash flow to shareholders and reflecting our confidence in the Company's future."

Based on the current forecast, Cummins expects full year 2014 revenues to grow between 8% and 11%, up from its previous forecast of growth of between 6% and 10%, due largely to improving demand in North America. EBIT is expected to be in the range of 12.75 to 13.25 percent of sales.

NOTE 2. INCOME TAXES

Our effective tax rate for the year is expected to approximate 28 percent, excluding any one-time items that may arise and the research tax credit which expired December 31, 2013 and has not yet been renewed by Congress. Our tax rate is generally less than the 35 percent U.S. statutory income tax rate primarily due to lower tax rates on foreign income. The effective tax rates for the three and six month periods ended June 29, 2014, were 26.5 percent and 28 percent, respectively. The tax rate for the three months ended June 29, 2014, included a $2 million discrete tax benefit for the release of reserves for uncertain tax positions related to multiple state audit settlements. Additionally, the tax rate for the six month period included a $12 million discrete tax expense attributable primarily to state deferred tax adjustments, as well as a $6 million discrete net tax benefit resulting from a $70 million dividend paid from China earnings generated prior to 2012.

Our effective tax rate for the three month period ended March 30, 2014, was 29.9 percent, and included a $12 million discrete tax expense attributable primarily to state deferred tax adjustments, as well as a $6 million discrete net tax benefit resulting from a $70 million dividend paid from China earnings generated prior to 2012.

Our effective tax rates for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2013, were 28.1 percent and 27.9 percent, respectively. These tax rates included a discrete tax benefit of $28 million attributable to the 2012 research credit reinstated in January 2013, as well as a discrete tax expense of $17 million, which primarily related to the write-off of a deferred tax asset deemed unrecoverable. The decrease in the three month effective tax rate from 2013 to 2014 is primarily due to favorable changes in the jurisdictional mix of pre-tax income and the 2014 favorable discrete tax item related to state audit settlements. 

NOTE 3. ACQUISITION  

Cummins Southern Plains LLC

On March 31, 2014, we acquired the remaining 50 percent interest in Cummins Southern Plains LLC (Southern Plains) from the former distributor principal. The purchase consideration was $92 million as presented below, which included $41 million in cash and an additional $48 million paid to eliminate outstanding debt. The remaining $3 million will be paid in future periods. The intangible assets are primarily customer related and are being amortized over periods ranging from one to five years. The acquisition was accounted for as a business combination and the results of the acquired entity were included in the Distribution operating segment subsequent to the acquisition date. As a result of this transaction, second quarter 2014 Distribution segment results included a $13 million gain, as we were required to re-measure our pre-existing 50 percent ownership interest in Southern Plains to fair value in accordance with GAAP. The transaction generated less than $1 million of goodwill based on the purchase price allocation. Net sales for Southern Plains were $433 million for the year ended December 31, 2013. This amount is not fully incremental to our consolidated sales as the amount would be reduced by the elimination of sales to the previously unconsolidated entity.

The final purchase price allocation as of June 29, 2014, was as follows:

Earnings before interest, taxes and noncontrolling interests

We define EBIT as earnings before interest expense, income tax expense and noncontrolling interests in income of consolidated subsidiaries (EBIT). We use EBIT to assess and measure the performance of our operating segments and also as a component in measuring our variable compensation programs. This measure is not in accordance with, or an alternative for, accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and may not be consistent with measures used by other companies. It should be considered supplemental data. Below is a reconciliation of EBIT to "Net income attributable to Cummins Inc.," for each of the applicable periods:
