OSHKOSH, Wis.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Oshkosh Corporation (NYSE: OSK), a leading innovator of mission-critical vehicles and essential equipment, today reported fiscal 2022 fourth quarter net income of $75.1 million, or $1.14 per diluted share, compared to $24.2 million, or $0.36 per diluted share, for the three months ended December 31, 2021. Adjusted¹ net income was $105.1 million, or $1.60 per diluted share, for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022. Adjusted¹ net income for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022 excludes after-tax charges of $25.7 million for a settlement of a frozen pension plan and $4.3 million for an impairment of an intangible asset in the Defense segment. Comparisons in this news release are to the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2021, unless otherwise noted.

“Oshkosh Corporation team members delivered a strong close to fiscal 2022 with robust sequential and year over year revenue and operating income growth during the fourth quarter,” stated John C. Pfeifer, Oshkosh Corporation president and chief executive officer. “Strong market fundamentals and elevated demand for our products drove high order rates in the quarter and a record backlog of more than $14 billion. We expect that robust demand will continue to support strong revenue and earnings growth in fiscal 2023 and beyond. While we continued to experience unfavorable supply chain dynamics and inflation impacts, our teams took appropriate actions to minimize and mitigate these challenges.

“This morning we are also announcing the formation of the new Oshkosh Corporation Vocational segment. We are combining our Fire & Emergency segment and Commercial segment businesses into this new segment. The segment will be focused on designing, developing and manufacturing purpose-built vocational vehicles and we expect to drive enhanced efficiencies while better leveraging our scale in technology development at an accelerated pace. We believe the Vocational segment will also serve as a platform for further organic and inorganic growth opportunities in several important end markets. We expect the Vocational segment's revenues to grow at a high single digit compound annual growth rate to $3 billion with over 12 percent operating margins over the next few years. The Vocational segment will be led by our current Fire & Emergency segment president Jim Johnson. With this change, Oshkosh Corporation's businesses will be aligned in three segments: Access, Defense and Vocational. We are also announcing that we have entered into a definitive agreement to sell our rear discharge concrete mixer business and expect to close by the end of this quarter.

“Based on strong demand that is supported by over $14 billion in backlog, we are pleased to announce fiscal 2023 expectations for revenue in the range of $8.4 billion and earnings per share in the range of $5.50, representing strong growth compared to fiscal 2022. Our ranges reflect expectations for ongoing supply chain constraints with modest improvements expected during fiscal 2023," added Pfeifer.

Consolidated sales in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022 increased 23.0 percent to $2.20 billion due to higher sales volume across all segments and improved pricing.

Consolidated operating income in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022 increased 253.4 percent to $147.0 million, or 6.7 percent of sales, compared to $41.6 million, or 2.3 percent of sales, for the three months ended December 31, 2021. The increase was primarily due to improved pricing and higher sales volume, offset in part by higher material & logistics costs and higher production costs.

Consolidated operating results for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022 included a charge of $5.6 million for the impairment of an intangible asset in the Defense segment. Excluding this item, adjusted¹ operating income in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022 was $152.6 million, or 6.9 percent of sales.

Factors affecting fourth quarter results for the Company’s business segments included:

Access Equipment - Access Equipment segment sales for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022 increased 28.9 percent to $1.07 billion as a result of improved sales volume and higher pricing in response to higher input costs. Access Equipment segment sales in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022 were unfavorably impacted by $20.0 million from changes in foreign currency exchange rates.

Access Equipment segment operating income in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022 increased 203.7 percent to $116.0 million, or 10.8 percent of sales, compared to $38.2 million, or 4.6 percent of sales, for the three months ended December 31, 2021. The increase was primarily due to higher pricing and higher sales volume, offset in part by higher material & logistics costs and higher production costs.

Defense - Defense segment sales for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022 increased 3.0 percent to $547.7 million due to higher aftermarket parts shipments, offset in part by lower Joint Light Tactical Vehicle program volume.

Defense segment operating income in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022 increased 24.4 percent to $19.9 million, or 3.6 percent of sales, compared to $16.0 million, or 3.0 percent of sales, for the three months ended December 31, 2021. The increase was due to favorable product mix offset in part by an intangible asset impairment.

Defense segment results for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022 included the charge of $5.6 million for the impairment of an intangible asset. Excluding this charge, adjusted¹ operating income in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022 was $25.5 million, or 4.7 percent of sales.

Fire & Emergency - Fire & Emergency segment sales for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022 increased 37.2 percent to $300.0 million due to higher fire truck deliveries as bottlenecks in manufacturing eased during the quarter as well as higher pricing in response to higher input costs.

Fire & Emergency segment operating income in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022 increased 49.1 percent to $23.7 million, or 7.9 percent of sales, compared to $15.9 million, or 7.3 percent of sales, for the three months ended December 31, 2021. The increase was due to higher sales volume and higher pricing, offset in part by higher material & logistics costs and higher production costs.

Commercial - Commercial segment sales for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022 increased 34.3 percent to $282.9 million due to higher refuse collection vehicle volume and higher pricing in response to higher input costs.

Commercial segment operating income in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022 increased 641.7 percent to $17.8 million, or 6.3 percent of sales, compared to $2.4 million, or 1.1 percent of sales, for the three months ended December 31, 2021. The increase in operating income was largely due to improved pricing and higher sales volume, offset in part by higher material & logistics costs and higher new product development spending.

Corporate - Corporate costs in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022 decreased $0.5 million to $30.4 million due to lower project spend and lower incentive compensation costs, offset in part by higher share-based compensation costs.

Interest Expense Net of Interest Income - Interest expense net of interest income in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022 decreased $2.3 million to $9.5 million.

Miscellaneous, net - Miscellaneous expense for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022 primarily related to a $33.6 million settlement of a frozen defined benefit pension plan.

Provision for Income Taxes - The Company recorded income tax expense in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022 of $29.1 million, or 27.6 percent of pre-tax income, compared to $1.2 million, or 5.0 percent of pre-tax income, in the three months ended December 31, 2021.

Full-Year Results

The Company reported net sales for fiscal 2022 of $8.28 billion and net income of $173.9 million, or $2.63 per diluted share. This compares with net sales of $7.95 billion and net income of $461.1 million, or $6.68 per diluted share, in the prior year. The decline in net income in fiscal 2022 compared to the twelve months ended December 31, 2021 was the result of higher material & logistics costs, higher manufacturing costs largely associated with supply chain challenges, the absence of a carryback of a U.S. net operating loss to previous tax years, adverse cumulative contract adjustments in the Defense segment, the after-tax charge for the settlement of the frozen pension plan, higher new product development spending and a charge associated with foreign anti-hybrid tax legislation as a result of comments made by taxing authorities of the applicable jurisdiction, offset in part by improved pricing and lower incentive compensation costs.

Adjusted¹ net income was $228.7 million, or $3.46 per diluted share, for fiscal 2022 and $378.2 million, or $5.48 per diluted share, for the twelve months ended December 31, 2021. Adjusted¹ net income excludes the charge of $25.7 million for the settlement of the pension plan, the charge of $18.1 million associated with foreign anti-hybrid tax legislation, $6.4 million for the impairment of intangible assets and a charge of $4.6 million for the release of cumulative translation adjustment losses. Adjusted¹ results for the twelve months ended December 31, 2021 excluded a $75.3 million tax benefit associated with the carryback of a U.S. net operating loss to prior years and an $11.7 million tax benefit associated with the release of a valuation allowance on deferred tax assets in Europe, offset in part by after-tax charges of $3.9 million associated with restructuring actions in the Access Equipment segment and $0.2 million associated with business acquisition costs in the Defense segment.

Change in Inventory Accounting

Historically, approximately 80 percent of the Company's inventories were accounted for under the last-in, first-out (LIFO) method of accounting. During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022, the Company converted its accounting for all inventory to the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method of accounting to better align with the accounting practices of peers, to more accurately reflect the current value and physical flow of inventory and to harmonize the accounting method for inventories across the Company. The change in accounting has been retrospectively applied to the consolidated financial statements.

Dividend Announcement

The Company’s Board of Directors today declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.41 per share of Common Stock. The dividend represents an increase of 11 percent from the previous dividend and will be payable on March 2, 2023 to shareholders of record as of February 16, 2023.

Fiscal 2023 Expectations

The Company announced its fiscal 2023 diluted earnings per share estimate in the range of $5.50 on projected net sales in the range of $8.4 billion. These estimates reflect operating income in the range of $530 million. This guidance includes an impact of approximately $0.80 per share related to inventive compensation costs returning to typical levels and increased new product development investment of approximately $0.30 per share.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The Company reports its financial results in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (GAAP). The Company is presenting various operating results both on a GAAP basis and on a basis excluding items that affect comparability of results. When the Company excludes certain items as described below, they are considered non-GAAP financial measures. The Company believes excluding the impact of these items is useful to investors in comparing the Company’s performance to prior period results. Non-GAAP financial measures should be viewed in addition to, and not as an alternative for, the Company’s results prepared in accordance with GAAP. The table below presents a reconciliation of the Company’s presented non-GAAP measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures (in millions, except per share amounts):
