    • Strong operating performance supported $0.06 EPS from continuing operations and $0.59 of adjusted EPS
    • Achieved a strong quarter of cash flow, contributing to full year operating cash flow of $356 million and free cash flow of $277 million
    • Positioned for separation into two independent public companies near the end of the first quarter 2022 with strong growth outlooks for both businesses



    Wilmington, DE, Feb. 22, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) --  Colfax Corporation (NYSE:CFX), a leading diversified technology company, today announced its financial results for the fourth quarter and fiscal year 2021 and provided additional updates.

    The Company reported fourth quarter net income from continuing operations of $10 million, or $0.06 per share, compared to $41 million, or $0.29 per share, in the prior year period. Adjusted earnings of $0.59 per share rose 16% from $0.51 in the prior year period. The Company also reported full year net income from continuing operations of $94 million, or $0.60 per share, and adjusted earnings of $2.14. Adjustments to US GAAP results are included in this release.

    In the fourth quarter, sales of $1,023 million increased 24%, or 16% on an organic sales-per-day basis versus the prior year period. The Company earned operating income of $55 million, compared to $58 million in the prior year quarter. Fourth quarter adjusted EBITA of $136 million increased 21% compared to $113 million in the prior year quarter, and adjusted EBITA margins decreased 30 basis points to 13.3%. Excluding recent acquisitions, adjusted EBITA margins were approximately 20 basis points higher. Colfax generated operating cash flow of $96 million in the quarter and $356 million for the full year. Full year free cash flow, when excluding outflows related to the intended separation of Colfax into two independent public companies, was $277 million.

    Medical Technology segment sales of $399 million in the quarter increased 29% compared to the prior period, and 10% on an organic sales-per-day basis. Fabrication Technology segment (ESAB) fourth quarter sales of $624 million increased 20% compared to the prior year period, and 20% on an organic sales-per-day basis.

    "We delivered a strong quarter and year of financial results with both businesses continuing to outperform their respective markets," said Matt Trerotola, Colfax President and CEO. "ESAB effectively executed in a period of inflationary and supply chain pressures to deliver solid growth and operating margin expansion. Our MedTech business drove double-digit organic growth versus 2020, and we delivered organic growth versus 2019 despite on-going pandemic challenges. As we exit this pivotal year and approach our separation date, I am confident that both businesses are operationally and strategically well-positioned to accelerate growth and create long-term shareholder value."

    Separation Update

    The Company reported that it has completed most steps in preparation for the tax-free spin-off of its ESAB business to Colfax shareholders near the end of the first quarter, subject to obtaining final approval from the Board of Directors and market, regulatory and other customary conditions. Colfax intends to distribute 90% of the outstanding shares in ESAB to Colfax shareholders on a pro rata basis in a distribution intended to be tax-free to Colfax. The Company plans to divest its 10% retained shares in ESAB within 12 months after the spin-off in a tax-efficient exchange for its outstanding debt. Details on the transaction are included in ESAB's Form 10 registration statement, which will be publicly filed today with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Colfax also announced that it intends to launch ESAB with net debt equal to approximately 2.75 times its trailing twelve-month pro forma EBITDA, or approximately $1.2 billion.

    "Upon separation, both of these leading businesses will have the financial flexibility to achieve their long-term strategic goals of accelerating growth, expanding margins and generating cash flow to create long-term shareholder value", said Mr. Trerotola.

    The determination of the respective boards of directors is nearly complete for both ESAB and Colfax, which will be renamed Enovis at the time of separation. The boards will include existing Colfax directors and new directors with skills and perspectives that are relevant to each company. Mitch Rales, current Colfax Chairman, is expected to serve as Chairman of both business' boards.

    2022 Financial Outlook

    Colfax reported that it expects strong sales and profit growth in 2022 for both of its businesses with typical seasonal patterns and improving business conditions as the year progresses. Enovis is projecting sales to grow 10-14% in 2022, including 6-9% from organic growth, and to generate segment-level adjusted EBITDA of $280-$300 million. ESAB is expecting 7-10% organic sales growth in 2022 with segment-level adjusted EBITDA of $455-$475 million. Segment-level adjusted EBITDA excludes future corporate costs.

    Investor Calls Scheduled for Monday, March 14, 2022

    In anticipation of the separation of Colfax being completed near the end of the first quarter of 2022, Enovis and ESAB each announced investor calls scheduled for Monday, March 14, 2022 to discuss their respective strategies for value creation including 2022 forecasted performance. ESAB CEO Shyam Kambeyanda and his team will present from 9:00 a.m. to 10:30 a.m. Eastern time, followed by a thirty-minute break and then a presentation by Enovis CEO Matt Trerotola and his team from 11:00 a.m. to approximately 1:00 p.m. Eastern time.

    Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Other Adjustments

    Colfax has provided in this press release financial information that has not been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("non-GAAP"). These non-GAAP financial measures may include one or more of the following: adjusted net income from continuing operations, adjusted net income margin from continuing operations, adjusted net income per diluted share from continuing operations, adjusted EBITA (earnings before interest, taxes and amortization), adjusted EBITDA (adjusted EBITA plus depreciation and other amortization), adjusted EBITA margin, organic sales growth, and free cash flow. Colfax also provides adjusted EBITA and adjusted EBITA margin on a segment basis.

    Adjusted net income from continuing operations represents net income (loss) from continuing operations excluding restructuring and other related charges, European Union Medical Device Regulation ("MDR") and other costs, pension settlement gain, debt extinguishment charges, acquisition-related amortization and other non-cash charges, and strategic transaction costs. Adjusted net income includes the tax effect of adjusted pre-tax income at applicable tax rates and other tax adjustments. Colfax also presents adjusted net income margin from continuing operations, which is subject to the same adjustments as adjusted net income from continuing operations.

    Adjusted net income per diluted share from continuing operations represents adjusted net income from continuing operations divided by the number of adjusted diluted weighted average shares. Both GAAP and non-GAAP diluted net income per share data are computed based on weighted average shares outstanding and, if there is net income from continuing operations (rather than net loss) during the period, the dilutive impact of share equivalents outstanding during the period. Diluted weighted average shares outstanding and adjusted diluted weighted average shares outstanding are calculated on the same basis except for the net income or loss figure used in determining whether to include such dilutive impact.

    Adjusted EBITA represents net income (loss) from continuing operations excluding restructuring and other related charges, MDR and other costs, acquisition-related amortization and other non-cash charges, and strategic transaction costs, as well as income tax expense (benefit) and interest expense, net. Colfax presents adjusted EBITA margin, which is subject to the same adjustments as adjusted EBITA. Further, Colfax presents adjusted EBITA (and adjusted EBITA margin) on a segment basis, which excludes the impact of strategic transaction costs and acquisition-related amortization and other non-cash charges from segment operating income.

    Organic sales growth (decline) excludes the impact of acquisitions and foreign exchange rate fluctuations.

    Organic sales-per-day growth (decline) represents Organic sales growth (decline) adjusted for additional or fewer selling days calculated based on the global average selling days particular to each segment.

    Free cash flow represents cash flow from operating activities excluding cash outflows related to the planned separation, less purchases of property, plant and equipment net proceeds from sale of certain properties.

    These non-GAAP financial measures assist Colfax management in comparing its operating performance over time because certain items may obscure underlying business trends and make comparisons of long-term performance difficult, as they are of a nature and/or size that occur with inconsistent frequency or relate to discrete restructuring plans that are fundamentally different from the ongoing productivity improvements of the Company. Colfax management also believes that presenting these measures allows investors to view its performance using the same measures that the Company uses in evaluating its financial and business performance and trends.

    Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, financial information calculated in accordance with GAAP. Investors are encouraged to review the reconciliation of these non-GAAP measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures. A reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures presented above to GAAP results has been provided in the financial tables included in this press release.
