“We are pleased to report that the Company delivered substantially improved sequential quarterly revenues and operating earnings of $391.4 million and $35.0 million, up approximately 6 percent and 20 percent, respectively, as compared to the first quarter of 2016. In addition, the Company generated strong free cash flow of $29.9 million, a sequential quarterly increase of approximately 35 percent and representing a free cash flow conversion ratio of 116 percent of Adjusted Net Earnings,” stated Amin J. Khoury, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of KLX.

Mr. Khoury continued, “On a segment level, our ASG business had a very successful quarter with respect to new program wins and market share gains that are expected to begin to be reflected in our quarterly results as early as the third quarter of the current year, and more significantly during the fourth quarter and in 2017. We have also made significant progress in the first phase of the Herndon integration.”

Mr. Khoury concluded, “With respect to ESG, our second quarter performance has begun to reflect our business realignment and cost reduction initiatives, as evidenced by a 37 percent improvement in Adjusted EBITDA as compared with first quarter of 2016. ESG’s cash burn rate, defined as Adjusted EBITDA less capital expenditures, was $(14.6) million, a sequential quarterly improvement of $20.8 million, or approximately 60 percent. As compared with the same period in the prior year, ESG’s second quarter cash burn rate improved by $25.0 million, or approximately 63 percent. We are continuing to carefully manage our costs, while continuing to invest in differentiating technologies, personnel and innovative product and service lines, as we build an industry leading platform in the services niche in which we operate.”

We have presented Adjusted Net Earnings and Adjusted Earnings per diluted share to reflect net earnings before amortization and non-cash compensation expense, and to include the tax benefit from the amortization of tax deductible goodwill (“Adjusted Net Earnings” and “Adjusted Net Earnings per diluted share”). See “Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures.”

SECOND QUARTER ENDED JULY 31, 2016 CONSOLIDATED RESULTS
Second quarter 2016 revenues of $391.4 million decreased 5.2 percent, as compared to the prior year period. The consolidated results reflect a $7.4 million increase in ASG revenues offset by a $28.7 million decline in ESG revenues as compared with the prior year. On a sequential quarterly basis, consolidated revenues increased by 6.3 percent as a result a $28.0 million increase in ASG revenues, offset by a $4.8 million decline in ESG revenues. ASG organic revenues were essentially flat with the first quarter of 2016.

Operating earnings were $35.0 million and operating margin was 8.9 percent. Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin were $57.1 million and 14.6 percent, respectively. Included in operating earnings and Adjusted EBITDA are approximately $2.6 million of costs and expenses associated with the recent Herndon acquisition and the cost of maintaining duplicative IT systems as the Company transitions to a stand-alone IT platform.

Second quarter 2016 Adjusted Net Earnings and Adjusted Net Earnings per diluted share were $25.8 million and $0.49 per diluted share, respectively. Free cash flow was $29.9 million or 116 percent of Adjusted Net Earnings.

Second quarter 2016 ASG organic revenues were negatively impacted by headwinds from our legacy military manufacturing customers and lower production levels at a number of commercial aerospace manufacturing customers. These headwinds were more than offset by the recent acquisition of Herndon, which contributed approximately $28 million of revenues since its acquisition on May 17, 2016. ASG’s organic revenues were essentially flat with the first quarter of 2016. ASG second quarter 2016 operating earnings were essentially flat when compared to the prior year, and operating margin was 16.3 percent, reflecting the margin dilutive impact of the Herndon acquisition and approximately $2.6 million of Herndon integration costs and the cost of maintaining duplicative IT systems as the Company transitions to a stand-alone IT platform. Adjusted for these items, the EBIT margin would have been approximately 17.8 percent.

Mr. Khoury commented, “The decline in revenues from ASG’s military manufacturing customers reflects the ongoing effects of sequestration, sun-setting of certain programs, and lower levels of military helicopters produced. The decline in sales to military manufacturing customers and lower production levels at numerous commercial aerospace manufacturing customers was more than offset by revenues from the recent Herndon acquisition.”

Mr. Khoury continued, “We are pleased with the contribution from Herndon during the second quarter and their results were in-line with our expectations. The integration is well underway and we have already made major progress in the first phase of combining the overlapping parts of the two businesses. We continue to expect synergies to add approximately $10 million of EBITDA per year to our business upon completion of the integration by the end of 2017.” 

Second quarter 2016 ESG revenues were $32.3 million, a $28.7 million or 47.0 percent decline as compared to the prior year, while operating loss was reduced by 10.6 percent to $(23.5) million and Adjusted EBITDA loss was $(12.1) million. On a sequential quarterly basis compared with the first quarter of 2016, revenues declined by $4.8 million or 12.9 percent, while operating loss was reduced by $7.3 million or 23.7 percent to $(23.5) million, and Adjusted EBITDA improved by 36.6 percent from $(19.1) million to $(12.1) million in the current period.

Commenting on the ESG segment, Mr. Khoury noted, “ESG second quarter results have begun to reflect the difficult actions we have taken to reduce costs while striving to continue to provide quality service to our customers. In spite of challenging market conditions, with both demand and pricing levels at record lows, ESG’s cash burn rate during the current quarter was reduced by 63 percent to $(14.6) million as compared with the second quarter of 2015 and by $20.8 million or approximately 60 percent as compared with the first quarter of 2016. Management is focused on controlling costs to limit losses while adding differentiated technologies and services to continue to build our valuable franchise. We expect the benefit of the business alignment actions we have taken, which include an approximate 55 percent reduction in headcount and the consolidation of 11 facilities, together with our commitment to closely scrutinize all capital expenditures, will continue to lower both our costs and our cash burn rate during the second half of the year, while retaining the capability to disproportionally benefit as market conditions improve.”

SIX MONTH CONSOLIDATED RESULTS
For the six months ended July 31, 2016, revenues of $759.6 million decreased 10.0 percent, as compared to the prior year period. The consolidated results reflect a 1.4 percent decrease in ASG revenues compared to record first half performance in the prior year, and a 52.0 percent decrease in ESG revenues as compared to the prior year.  

Operating earnings were $64.1 million and consolidated operating margin was 8.4 percent. Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin were $107.6 million and 14.2 percent, respectively.

For the six months ended July 31, 2016, GAAP net earnings and earnings per diluted share were $15.8 million and $0.30 per share, respectively. Adjusted Net Earnings and Adjusted Net Earnings per diluted share were $47.7 million and $0.91 per diluted share. Free cash flow for the six month period was $52.1 million, or approximately 109 percent of Adjusted Net Earnings.

  Total   $   107.6     $   130.3       (17.4 %)
             

For the six months ended July 31, 2016, ASG revenues of $690.2 million decreased 1.4 percent compared with the record 2015 period. ASG organic revenues were approximately 5 percent lower than the all-time record achieved for the comparable period in 2015, and were negatively impacted by headwinds from our legacy military and business jet manufacturing customers, as well as lower production levels in the second quarter at a number of commercial aerospace manufacturing customers. Aftermarket revenues for the six months were essentially flat with the prior year. ASG operating earnings of $118.4 million and operating margin of 17.2 percent were essentially flat despite the margin dilutive impact of the recent Herndon acquisition. ASG Adjusted EBITDA was $138.8 million, or 20.1 percent of revenues in the current six month period.

For the six months ended July 31, 2016, ESG revenues of $69.4 million declined by $75.1 million or 52.0 percent, while operating loss and Adjusted EBITDA were $(54.3) million and $(31.2) million, respectively, as compared to the same period in the prior year. 

LIQUIDITY
For the three month period ended July 31, 2016, the Company generated free cash flow of $29.9 million, representing a free cash flow conversion ratio of 116 percent of Adjusted Net Earnings. As of July 31, 2016, cash was $250 million, reflecting the acquisition of Herndon. Total long-term debt of $1.2 billion less cash, resulted in net debt of $950 million, and the Company’s net debt to net capital ratio was 30 percent. There were no borrowings outstanding under the Company’s $750.0 million credit facility.

OUTLOOK
Commenting on the Company’s outlook, Mr. Khoury stated, “During the second quarter the Company’s ASG segment generated important new program wins and market share gains. These wins are expected to begin to be reflected in our quarterly results as early as the third quarter of the current year and more so during the fourth quarter and in 2017. We currently expect our ASG segment to deliver mid-single digit organic revenue growth in the third and fourth quarters of this year as compared with the same periods in the prior year. With respect to our ESG segment, we expect to report negative quarterly revenue comparisons to the prior year. We nevertheless expect continued quarterly reductions in operating losses and cash burn rate.”

Mr. Khoury continued, “As a result of the foregoing, we expect KLX to deliver positive revenue, earnings and cash flow comparisons for the third and fourth quarters of 2016 compared with the prior year. In addition, we expect to report positive quarterly revenue, earnings and cash flow comparisons during 2017.”

RECONCILIATION OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

This release includes “adjusted net earnings” and “adjusted earnings per diluted share” to reflect net earnings before amortization, non-cash compensation expense, and to include the tax benefit from the amortization of tax deductible goodwill. This release also includes “EBITDA,” “EBITDA margin,” “free cash flow,” “ASG Adjusted EBITDA,” “ASG Adjusted EBITDA margin,” “ESG Adjusted EBITDA (loss)” and “ESG EBITDA margin,” in each case excluding depreciation and amortization and non-cash compensation expense which are “non-GAAP financial measures” as defined in Regulation G of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). 

The Company uses the above described adjusted measures to evaluate and assess the operational strength and performance of the business and of particular segments of the business. The Company believes these financial measures are relevant and useful for investors because it allows investors to have a better understanding of the Company’s actual operating performance unaffected by the impact of the costs as defined.  These financial measures should not be viewed as a substitute for, or superior to, operating earnings or net earnings (each as defined under GAAP), the most directly comparable GAAP measures, as a measure of the Company’s operating performance.

Pursuant to the requirements of Regulation G of the Exchange Act, we are providing the following tables that reconcile the above mentioned non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures:
