WHITE PLAINS, N.Y.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- February 9, 2022--ITT Inc. (NYSE: ITT) today reported financial results for the fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2021. For the fourth quarter, the company reported a year-over-year revenue decrease of 3%, down 2% on an organic basis, driven primarily by global supply chain disruptions and a tough prior year comparison related to auto OE demand, which offset strong deliveries in Connect & Control (CCT). For the full year, revenue increased 12%, or 10% on an organic basis, driven by strong demand in Motion Technologies (MT) and CCT.

Segment operating margin of 17.9% for the fourth quarter expanded 100 basis points versus prior year driven by productivity, strategic commercial actions, a favorable mix of higher margin products, foreign currency, and other items. This was partially offset by raw material inflation impacts, supply chain disruptions, and strategic growth investments.

Earnings per share for the fourth quarter of $1.20 increased from a net loss per share of $(0.16) in the prior year. The net loss in 2020 was primarily driven by a pre-tax non-cash settlement charge of $137 million related to the termination of ITT’s U.S. pension plan. Excluding the impact of this and other items, adjusted earnings per share of $1.06 for the fourth quarter of 2021 was up 5% compared to prior year driven by higher segment operating income, share repurchases, and a lower effective tax rate.

Operating cash flow for the fourth quarter of $120 million increased $2 million due to higher segment operating income, partially offset by working capital investments to mitigate continued supply chain disruptions. For the full year, operating cash flows declined by $444 million from 2020 mainly driven by a $398 million payment related to the divestiture of ITT’s asbestos liabilities and related insurance assets in the second quarter of 2021, as well as working capital investments. This was partially offset by a 47% increase in segment operating income.

Management Commentary

“ITT delivered on its commitments to our customers and to our shareholders in the fourth quarter in what continues to be an extremely challenging environment. I am incredibly proud of the performance of the entire ITT team throughout 2021 and this quarter,” said Luca Savi, Chief Executive Officer and President of ITT. “We achieved 130 basis points of adjusted segment margin expansion and 5% adjusted earnings growth in the fourth quarter despite sustained inflation and global supply chain disruptions. We also generated organic orders growth of 10% with broad-based strength across Industrial Process and Connect & Control. ITT is well positioned entering 2022, with 18% higher organic backlog compared to the prior year.

Our results in 2021 demonstrated once again the tangible benefits of our business-first focus and entrepreneurial approach that enabled ITT to execute this year. Demand for our innovation and our products drove a 10% increase in organic revenue for the full year with outperformance in our market-leading Friction business and strength in connectors. Orders were up over 20% on an organic basis resulting from robust demand across our long-cycle pump project and aerospace businesses, and our short-cycle products portfolio in Industrial Process. ITT teams around the world overcame over $80 million of inflationary headwinds to generate 200 basis points of adjusted segment margin improvement versus 2020. Thanks to all these actions we exceeded ITT’s pre-pandemic adjusted operating margin and adjusted EPS levels from 2019.”

Savi concluded, “The hard work and commitment of our teams to serve our customers are building a solid foundation for ITT entering 2022. We continue to see challenges on the supply side, as well as global uncertainty from the pandemic, labor shortages, and inflationary pressure, but I am always encouraged by our team’s ability to manage these headwinds as we did throughout 2021. Given our strong performance and actions taken in 2021, and the strategic elimination of ITT’s legacy asbestos liability exposure, ITT today has the capital to deploy across growth investments, including green capex, dividends, share repurchases, and particularly M&A. There are challenges ahead but I am excited about the opportunities for ITT, our employees, and our stakeholders in 2022.”

Motion Technologies revenue decreased primarily due to supply chain constraints in Friction and Wolverine as well as a tough prior year comparison in the fourth quarter of 2020 related to auto OE demand, partially offset by growth in Friction aftermarket. Operating income decreased from $70 million to $64 million primarily due to lower sales volume and higher raw material inflation, partially offset by strategic commercial actions, shop floor and sourcing productivity, foreign currency, and a one-time gain on an asset sale in the fourth quarter of 2021.

Industrial Process revenue decreased primarily due to continued supply disruptions stemming from labor shortages, supplier delays, and extended lead times, which primarily impacted the projects business. This was partially offset by growth in short-cycle pumps, parts, valves, and service, with strength in the energy market. Operating income decreased to $32 million primarily due to lower sales volume and higher operating costs attributable to supply chain disruptions, including higher freight and raw material costs, and labor shortages, partially offset by productivity, favorable mix of higher margin products, foreign currency, and strategic commercial actions.

Connect & Control Technologies revenue increased primarily due to connector demand in North America and Europe, principally in the industrial, transportation, and commercial aerospace markets, and through distribution. Operating income increased from $16 million to $27 million, primarily driven by higher sales volume, shop floor and sourcing productivity, and strategic commercial actions, partially offset by higher raw materials and labor inflation.

Quarterly Dividend Increase

The company also announced today that it is increasing its quarterly dividend 20% to $0.264 per share on the company’s outstanding common stock. ITT’s Board of Directors approved the cash dividend for the first quarter of 2022, which will be payable on April 4, 2022, to shareholders of record as of the close of business on March 9, 2022. The 20% increase in the quarterly dividend announced today follows increases of 15% and 30% announced in 2020 and 2021.

2022 Guidance

The company’s 2022 guidance assumes continued disruptions in the global supply chain stemming from labor shortages, supplier delays, and raw material inflation, which we anticipate will persist through at least the first half of 2022. We expect revenue growth of 7% to 9%, or up 9% to 11% on an organic basis; segment operating margin of 17.5% to 18.4%, and adjusted segment operating margin of 17.6% to 18.5%, up 40 to 130 bps; earnings per share of $4.22 to $4.66, and adjusted earnings per share of $4.30 to $4.70 per share, up 6% to 16%; and free cash flow of $300 million to $325 million, representing free cash flow margin of 10% to 11% for the full year.

Key Performance Indicators and Non-GAAP Measures

Management reviews a variety of key performance indicators including revenue, segment operating income and margins, earnings per share, order growth, and backlog, some of which are calculated on a non-GAAP basis. In addition, we consider certain measures to be useful to management and investors when evaluating our operating performance for the periods presented. These measures provide a tool for evaluating our ongoing operations and management of assets from period to period. This information can assist investors in assessing our financial performance and measures our ability to generate capital for deployment among competing strategic alternatives and initiatives, including, but not limited to, acquisitions, dividends, and share repurchases. Some of these metrics, however, are not measures of financial performance under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP) and should not be considered a substitute for measures determined in accordance with GAAP. We consider the following non-GAAP measures, which may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies, to be key performance indicators for purposes of our reconciliation tables.

Organic Revenues and Organic Orders are defined, respectively, as revenue and orders, excluding the impacts of foreign currency fluctuations and acquisitions. The period-over-period change resulting from foreign currency fluctuations is estimated using a fixed exchange rate for both the current and prior periods. Management believes that reporting organic revenue and organic orders provides useful information to investors by helping identify underlying trends in our business and facilitating comparisons of our revenue performance with prior and future periods and to our peers.

Adjusted Operating Income and Adjusted Segment Operating Income are defined, respectively, as total operating income and segment operating income, adjusted to exclude special items that include, but are not limited to, asbestos-related impacts, impairments, restructuring, certain acquisition-related impacts, and unusual or infrequent operating items. Special items represent charges or credits that impact current results, which management views as unrelated to the Company's ongoing operations and performance. Adjusted Operating Margin and Adjusted Segment Operating Margin are defined as adjusted operating income or adjusted segment operating income divided by revenue. Adjusted Segment Decremental or Incremental Operating Margin is defined as the change in adjusted segment operating income divided by the change in revenue. We believe these financial measures are useful to investors and other users of our financial statements in evaluating ongoing operating profitability, as well as in evaluating operating performance in relation to our competitors.

Adjusted Income from Continuing Operations and Adjusted EPS are defined, respectively, as income from continuing operations attributable to ITT Inc. and income from continuing operations attributable to ITT Inc. per diluted share, adjusted to exclude special items that include, but are not limited to, asbestos-related impacts, impairments, restructuring, pension settlement impact, certain acquisition-related impacts, income tax settlements or adjustments, and unusual or infrequent items. Special items represent charges or credits, on an after-tax basis, that impact current results which management views as unrelated to the Company's ongoing operations and performance. The after-tax basis of each special item is determined using the jurisdictional tax rate of where the expense or benefit occurred. We believe that adjusted income from continuing operations is useful to investors and other users of our financial statements in evaluating ongoing operating profitability, as well as in evaluating operating performance in relation to our competitors.

Free Cash Flow is defined as net cash provided by operating activities less capital expenditures. We believe that free cash flow provides useful information to investors as it provides insight into a primary cash flow metric used by management to monitor and evaluate cash flows generated by our operations.
