Record sales of $1.125 billion, up approximately 10 percent from last year
Record first-quarter earnings per diluted share of $1.56 on a GAAP basis, with all-time record quarterly adjusted EPS of $1.61

Maintains earnings outlook; expects 2022 GAAP earnings per diluted share of $4.85-5.25, with adjusted EPS of $5.00-5.40

NORTH CANTON, Ohio, May 2, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- The Timken Company (NYSE:TKR, www.timken.com))), a global industrial leader in engineered bearings and power transmission products, today reported record first-quarter 2022 sales of $1.125 billion, up 9.7 percent from the same period a year ago. The increase was primarily driven by growth across most end-market sectors led by industrial distribution and off-highway, and the impact of higher pricing, partially offset by unfavorable currency.

Timken posted net income in the first quarter of $118.2 million or a record $1.56 per diluted share. This compares to net income of $113.3 million or $1.47 per diluted share for the same period a year ago. The increase in GAAP net income was primarily driven by the impact of higher volume and favorable price/mix, partially offset by higher operating costs and the net unfavorable impact of special items (detailed in the attached tables), as compared to the year-ago period.

Excluding special items, adjusted net income in the first quarter was $121.7 million or $1.61 per diluted share, a record for any quarter. This compares to adjusted net income of $106.7 million or $1.38 per diluted share for the same period in 2021.

During the quarter, Timken returned $123.5 million of cash to shareholders with the repurchase of 1.5 million shares of company stock, or approximately 2 percent of outstanding shares, and the payment of its 399th consecutive quarterly dividend. The company ended the first quarter with net debt to adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) at 1.8 times. Also, among recent developments, the company announced an agreement to acquire Spinea, a technology leader and manufacturer of highly engineered cycloidal reduction gears and actuators, which strengthens Timken's position in the high-growth robotics and automation space.

"We had an excellent start to the year, reporting record revenue and earnings with strong margin performance," said Richard G. Kyle, Timken president and chief executive officer. "Our first-quarter results reflect higher customer demand for our differentiated products along with the benefit of recent pricing actions. In addition, our team delivered better operating performance in the quarter, as we improved execution and customer service despite continued challenges across our global supply chain. Our performance demonstrates the resiliency of the company and builds on our track record of delivering strong financial results through industrial cycles and dynamic market conditions."

First-Quarter 2022 Segment Results

Process Industries sales of $584.2 million increased 12.2 percent from the same period a year ago. The increase was driven primarily by growth across most sectors led by distribution and general industrial, and the impact of higher pricing, partially offset by lower revenue in the renewable energy sector and unfavorable currency.

EBITDA for the quarter was $155.6 million or 26.6 percent of sales, compared with EBITDA of $131 million or 25.1 percent of sales for the same period a year ago. The increase in EBITDA was driven primarily by the favorable impact of higher volume and price/mix, partially offset by higher operating costs.

Excluding special items (detailed in the attached tables), adjusted EBITDA in the quarter was $158.1 million or 27.1 percent of sales, compared with $135.7 million or 26.0 percent of sales in the first quarter last year.

Mobile Industries sales of $540.4 million increased 7.1 percent compared with the same period a year ago. The increase was driven primarily by higher shipments in the off-highway and rail sectors, and the impact of higher pricing, partially offset by unfavorable currency.

EBITDA for the quarter was $75.1 million or 13.9 percent of sales, compared with EBITDA of $79.6 million or 15.8 percent of sales for the same period a year ago. The decline in EBITDA reflects the impact of significantly higher operating costs and Russia-related charges (described in the attached tables), partially offset by positive price/mix and the favorable impact of higher volume.

Excluding special items (detailed in the attached tables), adjusted EBITDA in the quarter was $79.2 million or 14.7 percent of sales, compared with $80.1 million or 15.9 percent of sales in the first quarter last year.

2022 Outlook

Timken is maintaining its 2022 earnings outlook, with full-year earnings per diluted share in the range of $4.85 to $5.25 on a GAAP basis and adjusted earnings per diluted share in the range of $5.00 to $5.40. The company has modestly adjusted its revenue outlook and now anticipates 2022 revenue to be up approximately 8 percent at the midpoint in total versus 2021, which reflects the impact from suspending operations in Russia as well as an updated estimate for unfavorable currency translation.

"We expect to deliver strong performance with double-digit earnings growth in 2022 driven by robust demand for our products, improved operational execution and price realization," said Kyle. "The diversity of our product portfolio and market mix position us well to continue capitalizing on strong industrial market demand. And we expect to deliver another record year while further increasing our industrial leadership position by advancing our strategic growth and capital allocation initiatives."

Reconciliation of Total Debt to Net Debt, the Ratio of Net Debt to Capital, and the Ratio of Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDA:
(Unaudited)
These reconciliations are provided as additional relevant information about the Company's financial position deemed useful to investors. Capital, used for the ratio of net debt to capital, is a non-GAAP measure defined as total debt less cash and cash equivalents plus total shareholders' equity. Management believes Net Debt, the Ratio of Net Debt to Capital, Adjusted EBITDA (see above), and the Ratio of Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDA are important measures of the Company's financial position, due to the amount of cash and cash equivalents on hand. The Company presents net debt to adjusted EBITDA because it believes it is more representative of the Company's financial position as it is reflective of the ability to cover its net debt obligations with results from its core operations.

Management also believes that the non-GAAP measure of adjusted EBITDA is useful to investors as it is representative of the Company's core operations and is used in the management of the business, including decisions concerning the allocation of resources and assessment of performance.

⁽¹⁾ Impairment, restructuring and reorganization charges (including items recorded in cost of products sold) relate to: (i) plant closures; (ii) the rationalization of certain plants and (iii) severance related to cost reduction initiatives. The Company re-assesses its operating footprint and cost structure periodically, and makes adjustments as needed that result in restructuring charges. However, management believes these actions are not representative of the Company's core operations.

⁽²⁾ Corporate pension and other postretirement benefit related expense represents actuarial losses and (gains) that resulted from the remeasurement of plan assets and obligations as a result of changes in assumptions or experience. The Company recognizes actuarial losses and (gains) in connection with the annual remeasurement in the fourth quarter, or if specific events trigger a remeasurement.

⁽³⁾ Acquisition-related charges represent contingent consideration related to the acquisition of iMS that closed on August 20, 2021, and deal-related expenses associated with completed and certain unsuccessful transactions, as well as any resulting inventory step-up impact. Also included is the acquisition-related gain related to measurement period adjustments to the bargain purchase gain on the acquisition of the assets of Aurora that closed on November 30, 2020.

⁽⁴⁾ Russia-related charges include allowances or impairments recorded against certain trade receivables, inventory and other assets to reflect the current impact of Russia's invasion of Ukraine (and associated sanctions) on the Company's operations. Refer to Russia Operations in Management Discussion and Analysis within the Company's quarterly report on Form 10-Q for additional information.
