Moog Inc. (NYSE:MOG) announced today financial results for the quarter ended April 2, 2022.

Second Quarter Highlights

Sales of $771 million were up 5% from a year ago;
GAAP diluted earnings per share of $0.91 included $0.59 per share in restructuring and impairment charges;
Non-GAAP diluted adjusted earnings per share of $1.49, up 12% from adjusted earnings per share a year ago;
GAAP operating margins of 7.4% with adjusted operating margins of 10.6%;
$23 million GAAP cash flow from operating activities and $13 million adjusted cash flow from operating activities;
GAAP effective tax rate of 24.9% and adjusted effective tax rate of 24.4%.

Segment Results

Aircraft Controls segment revenues in the quarter were $311 million, 2% higher year over year. Commercial aircraft revenues were $119 million, a 16% increase. Sales to commercial OEM customers were unchanged with an increase in A350, 737, and business jet sales compensating for slower sales of 787 and other OEM products. Commercial aftermarket sales increased 61% on very strong repair and overhaul activity, particularly on the 787 aircraft, and one-time sales of test equipment that were booked in the quarter.

Military aircraft sales were $192 million, down 5% year over year. Military OEM sales were down 11%, to $137 million. Lower F-35 Joint Strike Fighter sales and foreign military sales were partially offset by increased V-22 sales. Military aftermarket sales were 14% higher on increases across multiple programs.

Space and Defense segment revenues were $223 million, an increase of 8% year over year. Defense sales of $136 million increased 15%. Strong sales of the RIwP^® turret and various components continued and offset lower sales for tactical missile applications. Space sales were mostly unchanged, at $87 million, the result of reduced hypersonic development activity and lower sales of heritage space components, offset by growth in sales of new space vehicles.

Industrial Systems segment sales in the quarter were $236 million, up 10% from a year ago, excluding the impact of foreign exchange movements and portfolio shaping activities. Sales of simulation and test products were 50% higher, as flight simulation activity for pilot training increased. Energy sales were up 14%, tied to the strength in oil prices and associated onshore and offshore exploration activity. Sales of products for industrial automation applications were down marginally, as the company completed minor portfolio shaping activities. Medical product sales were down 4%, the result of slower sales of components used in ventilators.

In the second quarter, the Company incurred $25 million of restructuring and impairment charges. Delayed recovery in the commercial aircraft OEM business resulted in $19 million of charges within the Aircraft Controls segment. The Company also recorded $4 million related to further portfolio refinements in the Space and Defense Controls and Industrial Systems segments and $2 million of asset write-downs related to exiting activities in Russia as a result of the invasion of Ukraine.

Consolidated 12-month backlog was $2.3 billion, up 17% from a year ago.

"We're pleased with our results this quarter which came in ahead of forecast," said John Scannell, Chairman and CEO. "Our backlog continues to grow, and our longer-term outlook remains positive. We're managing through the on-going challenges associated with COVID and supply chain disruptions and are confident in meeting our forecast for the remainder of the year."

The Company updated its fiscal 2022 projections and adjusted figures provided 90 days ago.

Forecasted sales of $3.0 billion;
Forecasted GAAP diluted earnings per share of $5.24, and adjusted diluted earnings per share of $5.50, both plus or minus $0.20;

Such forward-looking statements are made pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to several factors, risks and uncertainties, the impact or occurrence of which could cause actual results to differ materially from the expected results described in the forward-looking statements. In evaluating these forward-looking statements, you should carefully consider the factors set forth below.

Although it is not possible to create a comprehensive list of all factors that may cause actual results to differ from the results expressed or implied by our forward-looking statements or that may affect our future results, some of these factors and other risks and uncertainties that arise from time to time are described in Item 1A "Risk Factors" of our Annual Report on Form 10-K and in our other periodic filings with the SEC and include the following:

COVID-19 PANDEMIC RISKS

We face various risks related to health pandemics such as the global COVID-19 pandemic, which may have material adverse consequences on our operations, financial position, cash flows, and those of our customers and suppliers.

STRATEGIC RISKS

We operate in highly competitive markets with competitors who may have greater resources than we possess;
Our new products and technology research and development efforts are substantial and may not be successful which could reduce our sales and earnings;
Our inability to adequately enforce and protect our intellectual property or defend against assertions of infringement could prevent or restrict our ability to compete; and
Our sales and earnings may be affected if we cannot identify, acquire or integrate strategic acquisitions, or as we conduct divestitures.

MARKET CONDITION RISKS

The markets we serve are cyclical and sensitive to domestic and foreign economic conditions and events, which may cause our operating results to fluctuate;
We depend heavily on government contracts that may not be fully funded or may be terminated, and the failure to receive funding or the termination of one or more of these contracts could reduce our sales and increase our costs;
The loss of The Boeing Company or Lockheed Martin as a customer or a significant reduction in sales to either company could adversely impact our operating results; and
We may not realize the full amounts reflected in our backlog as revenue, which could adversely affect our future revenue and growth prospects.

OPERATIONAL RISKS

Our business operations may be adversely affected by information systems interruptions, intrusions or new software implementations;
We may not be able to prevent, or timely detect, issues with our products and our manufacturing processes which may adversely affect our operations and our earnings;
If our subcontractors or suppliers fail to perform their contractual obligations, our prime contract performance and our ability to obtain future business could be materially and adversely impacted; and
The failure or misuse of our products may damage our reputation, necessitate a product recall or result in claims against us that exceed our insurance coverage, thereby requiring us to pay significant damages.

FINANCIAL RISKS

We make estimates in accounting for over-time contracts, and changes in these estimates may have significant impacts on our earnings;
We enter into fixed-price contracts, which could subject us to losses if we have cost overruns;
Our indebtedness and restrictive covenants under our credit facilities could limit our operational and financial flexibility;
The phase out of LIBOR may negatively impact our debt agreements and financial position, results of operations and liquidity;
Significant changes in discount rates, rates of return on pension assets, mortality tables and other factors could adversely affect our earnings and equity and increase our pension funding requirements;
A write-off of all or part of our goodwill or other intangible assets could adversely affect our operating results and net worth; and
Unforeseen exposure to additional income tax liabilities may affect our operating results.

LEGAL AND COMPLIANCE RISKS

Contracting on government programs is subject to significant regulation, including rules related to bidding, billing and accounting standards, and any false claims or non-compliance could subject us to fines, penalties or possible debarment;
Our operations in foreign countries expose us to currency, political and trade risks and adverse changes in local legal and regulatory environments could impact our results of operations;
Government regulations could limit our ability to sell our products outside the United States and otherwise adversely affect our business;
We are involved in various legal proceedings, the outcome of which may be unfavorable to us; and
Our operations are subject to environmental laws, and complying with those laws may cause us to incur significant costs.

GENERAL RISKS

Future terror attacks, war, natural disasters or other catastrophic events beyond our control could negatively impact our business; and
Our performance could suffer if we cannot maintain our culture as well as attract, retain and engage our employees.

While we believe we have identified and discussed above the material risks affecting our business, there may be additional factors, risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently consider immaterial that may affect the forward-looking statements made herein. Given these factors, risks and uncertainties, investors should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements as predictive of future results. Any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date on which it is made, and we disclaim any obligation to update any forward-looking statement made in this report, except as required by law.

The table below adjusts the income taxes, net earnings and diluted net earnings per share to exclude these impacts. While management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures may be useful in evaluating the financial condition and results of operations of the Company, this information should be considered supplemental and is not a substitute for financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP.
