Insights

Financial Analyst

Flowserve delivered a strong second quarter performance, demonstrating significant improvements across key financial metrics. The company reported adjusted EPS of $0.73, up 40% year-over-year, driven by robust operational execution and margin expansion.

Revenue grew 7.1% to $1.16 billion, with both original equipment and aftermarket segments showing solid growth. Notably, bookings reached $1.25 billion, the highest quarterly level since 2014, indicating strong demand and a healthy backlog.

Margins saw substantial improvement, with adjusted gross margin expanding 200 basis points to 32.3% and adjusted operating margin increasing 210 basis points to 12.5%. This margin expansion reflects the company's focus on operational excellence and organizational efficiency.

Based on the strong first-half performance and positive outlook, Flowserve raised its full-year 2024 adjusted EPS guidance to $2.60-$2.75, up from the previous range of $2.50-$2.70. This upward revision suggests management's confidence in sustaining the momentum through the second half of the year.

Overall, Flowserve's Q2 results demonstrate the company's ability to capitalize on favorable market conditions while driving internal improvements. The combination of strong bookings, margin expansion and raised guidance paints a positive picture for the company's near-term prospects.

Market Research Analyst

Flowserve's Q2 results provide valuable insights into broader industry trends and market dynamics. The company's record $1.25 billion in bookings, including $610 million in aftermarket orders, suggests robust demand across its end markets. This strong order intake indicates a healthy industrial sector, particularly in areas requiring flow control solutions.

The 21.5% growth in original equipment bookings is particularly noteworthy, as it may signal increased capital investment by Flowserve's customers. This could be indicative of a broader trend of industrial companies upgrading or expanding their facilities, which bodes well for the overall economic outlook.

The aftermarket segment's growth, both in bookings (3.9%) and sales (5.0%), underscores the importance of ongoing maintenance and services in the flow control industry. This recurring revenue stream provides stability and visibility to Flowserve's business model.

Geographically, while specific regional breakdowns weren't provided, the overall growth suggests a global recovery in industrial activity. The company's ability to navigate supply chain challenges and inflationary pressures, as evidenced by its margin expansion, indicates effective management of macro headwinds affecting the industry.

Looking ahead, the raised guidance and strong backlog ($2.7 billion) suggest continued momentum in Flowserve's key markets. This positive outlook could be reflective of broader industrial trends, potentially signaling sustained growth in sectors such as oil & gas, power generation and water management.

The forward-looking statements included in this news release are based on our current expectations, projections, estimates and assumptions. These statements are only predictions, not guarantees. Such forward-looking statements are subject to numerous risks and uncertainties that are difficult to predict. These risks and uncertainties may cause actual results to differ materially from what is forecast in such forward-looking statements, and include, without limitation, the following: economic, political and other risks associated with our international operations, including military actions, trade embargoes, epidemics or pandemics or changes to tariffs or trade agreements that could affect customer markets, particularly North African, Latin American, Asian and Middle Eastern markets and global oil and gas producers, and non-compliance with U.S. export/re-export control, foreign corrupt practice laws, economic sanctions and import laws and regulations; any continued volatile regional and global economic conditions resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic on our business and operations; global supply chain disruptions and the current inflationary environment could adversely affect the efficiency of our manufacturing and increase the cost of providing our products to customers; a portion of our bookings may not lead to completed sales, and our ability to convert bookings into revenues at acceptable profit margins; changes in global economic conditions and the potential for unexpected cancellations or delays of customer orders in our reported backlog; our dependence on our customers’ ability to make required capital investment and maintenance expenditures; if we are not able to successfully execute and realize the expected financial benefits from any restructuring and realignment initiatives, our business could be adversely affected; the substantial dependence of our sales on the success of the oil and gas, chemical, power generation and water management industries; the adverse impact of volatile raw materials prices on our products and operating margins; increased aging and slower collection of receivables, particularly in Latin America and other emerging markets; our exposure to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, including in hyperinflationary countries such as Venezuela and Argentina; potential adverse consequences resulting from litigation to which we are a party, such as litigation involving asbestos-containing material claims; expectations regarding acquisitions and the integration of acquired businesses; the potential adverse impact of an impairment in the carrying value of goodwill or other intangible assets; our dependence upon third-party suppliers whose failure to perform timely could adversely affect our business operations; the highly competitive nature of the markets in which we operate; environmental compliance costs and liabilities; potential work stoppages and other labor matters; access to public and private sources of debt financing; our inability to protect our intellectual property in the U.S., as well as in foreign countries; obligations under our defined benefit pension plans; our internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements because of its inherent limitations, including the possibility of human error, the circumvention or overriding of controls, or fraud; the recording of increased deferred tax asset valuation allowances in the future or the impact of tax law changes on such deferred tax assets could affect our operating results; our information technology infrastructure could be subject to service interruptions, data corruption, cyber-based attacks or network security breaches, which could disrupt our business operations and result in the loss of critical and confidential information; ineffective internal controls could impact the accuracy and timely reporting of our business and financial results; and other factors described from time to time in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

All forward-looking statements included in this news release are based on information available to us on the date hereof, and we assume no obligation to update any forward-looking statement.

The Company reports its financial results in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). However, management believes that non-GAAP financial measures which exclude certain non-recurring items present additional useful comparisons between current results and results in prior operating periods, providing investors with a clearer view of the underlying trends of the business. Management also uses these non-GAAP financial measures in making financial, operating, planning and compensation decisions and in evaluating the Company's performance. Non-GAAP financial measures, which may be inconsistent with similarly captioned measures presented by other companies, should be viewed in addition to, and not as a substitute for, the Company’s reported results prepared in accordance with GAAP.
