Dover Reports Second Quarter 2017 Results And Raises Full Year Revenue And EPS Guidance

- Reports quarterly revenue of $2.0 billion, an increase of 18% from the prior year
- Delivers quarterly diluted net earnings per share of $1.04, up 37%
- Increases full year revenue growth forecast; now expected to be 12% to 14%
- Raises 2017 full year diluted earnings per share guidance to now be in the range of $4.23 to $4.33, an increase of $0.15 at the mid-point of guidance

DOWNERS GROVE, Ill., July 20, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Dover (NYSE: DOV) announced today that for the second quarter ended June 30, 2017, revenue was $2.0 billion, an increase of 18% from the prior year. The increase in the quarter was driven by organic growth of 10% and acquisition growth of 12%, partially offset by a 3% impact from dispositions and an unfavorable impact from foreign exchange ("FX") of 1%. Net earnings were $164.1 million, an increase of 39% as compared to $118.3 million for the prior year period. Diluted net earnings per share ("EPS") for the second quarter ended June 30, 2017, were $1.04, compared to $0.76 EPS in the prior year period, representing an increase of 37%. EPS for the second quarter ended June 30, 2017, and June 30, 2016, include restructuring costs of $0.01 EPS and $0.04 EPS, respectively.

Dover's President and Chief Executive Officer, Robert A. Livingston, said, "The second quarter reflected the continuation of a trend that began to develop late last year, namely improving global markets and strong results reflecting solid execution by our teams. In all, we achieved revenue growth and margin expansion that exceeded our forecasts.

"All of our segments posted sequential increases in revenue and margin, which was most notable in Refrigeration & Food Equipment and Fluids. In addition, we benefited from strong broad-based activity in Engineered Systems, and also from higher than expected U.S. rig count and increased well completions, which resulted in significant growth in Energy. 

"As a result of our strong second quarter performance and increased confidence in the back half of the year, we are raising our full year guidance for revenue and EPS. Our revised guidance is based on full year revenue growth of 12% to 14% versus our prior forecast of 11% to 13%, and includes organic growth of 5% to 7%, which has been increased one percentage point. Our revenue forecast also includes acquisition growth of 10%, a 2% impact from dispositions, and a 1% headwind from FX, all of which remain unchanged from our prior forecast. Lastly, we now expect full year diluted earnings per share to be in the range of $4.23 to $4.33, versus our prior guidance of $4.05 to $4.20."

Dover will host a webcast of its second quarter 2017 conference call at 10:00 A.M. Eastern Time (9:00 A.M. Central Time) on Thursday, July 20, 2017. The webcast can be accessed on the Dover website at dovercorporation.com. The conference call will also be made available for replay on the website.

Non-GAAP Disclosures

In an effort to provide investors with additional information regarding our results as determined by GAAP, Management also discloses non-GAAP information that Management believes provides useful information to investors. Adjusted net earnings, adjusted diluted earnings per common share, free cash flow and organic revenue growth are not financial measures under GAAP and should not be considered as a substitute for net earnings, diluted earnings per common share, cash flows from operating activities, or revenue as determined in accordance with GAAP, and they may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. Adjusted net earnings represents net earnings adjusted for gains on disposition of businesses and a product recall charge. Adjusted diluted earnings per common share represents adjusted net earnings divided by average diluted shares. Management believes this information is useful to investors to better understand the company's ongoing profitability and facilitates easier comparisons of the company's profitability to prior and future periods and to its peers. Free cash flow represents net cash provided by operating activities minus capital expenditures, plus the add back of cash taxes paid for gains on dispositions (which reflect tax payments on disposition-related investing activities). Management believes that free cash flow is an important measure of operating performance because it provides management and investors a measurement of cash generated from operations that is available for mandatory payment obligations and investment opportunities, such as funding acquisitions, paying dividends, repaying debt and repurchasing our common stock. Management believes that reporting organic revenue growth, which excludes the impact of foreign currency exchange rates and the impact of acquisitions and dispositions, provides a useful comparison of our revenue performance and trends between periods.
