*Performance relative to comparable fourth quarter and year ended December 31, 2020.

Watts Water Technologies, Inc. (NYSE:WTS) today announced results for the fourth quarter and full year 2021.

Chief Executive Officer Robert J. Pagano Jr. noted, "All three regions delivered record results for the quarter and the full year. I again commend all our colleagues at Watts, as our teams remained focused on customers' needs while concurrently dealing with the ongoing impact of the pandemic including supply chain disruptions and inflationary pressures, which were further compounded by the COVID surge. These concerns will linger into 2022, but I expect that our employees will again meet these challenges and continue to exceed our customers' expectations."

Sales for the fourth quarter and the full year were $474 million and $1.8 billion, up 18% and 20%, respectively, as compared to the same periods of 2020. Organic sales increased for the fourth quarter and full year by 18% and 17%, respectively. Net income per diluted share (EPS) for the fourth quarter and for the year ended December 31, 2021 was $1.18 and $4.88, respectively, as compared to $0.86 and $3.36 for the prior-year periods.

GAAP EPS for the fourth quarter and full year 2021 increased by $0.32 and $1.52, respectively, primarily from increased volume driven by the economic recovery, price realization, productivity initiatives, lower net interest costs and a lower effective income tax rate, partially offset by inflation, and incremental normalized costs, incentives and investment spend. GAAP EPS for the full year 2021 included higher restructuring costs as compared to the prior year primarily due to the restructuring program related to our French facility exit.

Adjusted EPS for the fourth quarter and full year 2021 was $1.42 and $5.52, respectively, as compared to $1.15 and $3.88 for the corresponding prior-year periods. Adjusted EPS for the quarter and full year improved for the reasons noted in the GAAP EPS results above, other than the restructuring costs which are excluded from adjusted earnings.

Mr. Pagano concluded, "Our priorities entering 2021 were to remain vigilant concerning employee safety, stay close to our customers, continue to execute on new product development and drive productivity to fund longer-term investments. We successfully addressed our goals and simultaneously delivered record sales, operating margin and earnings per share for the year. Our long-term strategy remains intact and we are confident on our prospects for delivering revenue and EPS growth in 2022."

Fourth Quarter Financial Highlights

Fourth quarter sales increased by 18%, on both a reported basis and organic basis, compared to the fourth quarter of 2020; reported operating margin decreased 30 basis points and adjusted operating margin decreased 20 basis points. Regionally:

Americas

Sales of $318 million increased 20% on a reported basis and 19% on an organic basis. Favorable foreign exchange movements and acquisitions combined for 1%. All major product lines contributed to organic growth.
Operating margin decreased 130 basis points on a GAAP basis and decreased 110 basis points on an adjusted basis as inflation, incremental growth investments, incentives and business normalization costs more than offset benefits from volume, price realization and productivity savings. GAAP operating margin in 2021 was negatively impacted by restructuring charges while GAAP operating margin in 2020 was positively affected by an acquisition earnout reserve adjustment, offset partially by restructuring charges.

Europe

Sales of $134 million increased by 11% on a reported basis, which included unfavorable foreign exchange movements of 4%. Organic sales increased by 15%, with growth in both Fluid Solutions and Drains platforms.
Operating margin increased 110 basis points on a GAAP basis and increased 170 basis points on an adjusted basis benefiting from increased price, volume and productivity, partially offset by inflation, business normalization costs and growth investments. GAAP operating margin in 2021 was negatively impacted by higher restructuring charges.

Asia-Pacific, Middle East and Africa ("APMEA")

Sales of $22 million increased 15% on a reported basis, including 2% from a favorable foreign currency impact. Organically, sales increased 13% from growth in all major regions.
Operating margin increased 210 basis points on a GAAP basis and decreased 70 basis points on an adjusted basis. GAAP and adjusted margins both benefited from increased volume, productivity, and higher intercompany volume, which was more than offset by incremental freight, incentives and business normalization costs. GAAP operating margin was positively impacted by lower restructuring and acquisition-related costs year-over-year.

Cash Flow and Capital Allocation

For 2021, operating cash flow approximated $181 million and net capital expenditures approximated $22 million, resulting in free cash flow of approximately $159 million. In 2020, operating cash flow was $229 million, net capital expenditures were $42 million and free cash flow was $187 million. Operating cash flow and free cash flow decreased primarily due to a proactive decision to increase inventories in response to strong market demand and amid continued supply chain disruptions. The free cash flow decrease was partially offset by lower capital expenditures year-over-year.

During the fourth quarter, the Company repurchased approximately $4.2 million of Class A common stock, or approximately 23,000 shares and for 2021, the Company repurchased approximately $16.0 million of Class A common stock, or approximately 110,000 shares, which more than offset dilution from our stock compensation programs. Approximately $97.4 million remains available for stock repurchases under the current authorization, which has no expiration date.

Management and Board Transitions

On February 4, 2022, Munish Nanda, President of Americas and Europe, informed us of his intention to retire from the Company. Mr. Nanda has agreed to continue in his current role as leader of the Company's Americas and Europe businesses until a successor has been identified and is in place. Thereafter, Mr. Nanda has agreed to remain employed by the Company until May 2023 to assist with the transition and provide advisory services. Commenting on Mr. Nanda's retirement announcement, Mr. Pagano said "I want to thank Munish for his leadership over the past seven years and his valuable contributions to Watts. I also greatly appreciate Munish's willingness to stay on with us for an extended period of time to make this transition as seamless as possible. We intend to launch a comprehensive search to find the most capable successor for Munish as soon as possible. We also look forward to celebrating Munish's retirement with him following the appointment of his successor."

At a meeting held on February 7, 2022, the Board of Directors voted unanimously to name Robert J. Pagano, Jr., the Company's Chief Executive Officer, as the new Chairperson of the Board effective immediately. The Board also voted unanimously to name the former Chairperson of the Board, W. Craig Kissel, as Lead Independent Director. The Company's Corporate Governance Guidelines prevent any Board member from being renominated for election to the Board after their 72nd birthday, and as such Mr. Kissel will not be eligible to stand for reelection at the 2023 Annual Meeting of Stockholders. The Board decided to make this change now in order to have an orderly transition of responsibilities. "I am very pleased to hand over the responsibilities of Chairperson to Bob," said Mr. Kissel. "Bob's long track record of strong leadership, coupled with his extensive board experience makes him an ideal person for this role." Mr. Pagano remarked "I feel very privileged to take on this role at such an important and exciting time for Watts. I would like to thank Craig for his leadership of our Board for so many years and I look forward to partnering with him over the coming year in his new role as Lead Independent Director."

Key Performance Indicators and Non-GAAP Measures

In this press release, we refer to non-GAAP financial measures (including adjusted operating income, adjusted operating margins, adjusted net income, adjusted earnings per share, organic sales, free cash flow, cash conversion rate of free cash flow to net income and net debt to capitalization ratio) and provide a reconciliation of those non-GAAP financial measures to the corresponding financial measures contained in our consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP. We believe that these financial measures enhance the overall understanding of our historical financial performance and give insight into our future prospects. Adjusted operating income, adjusted operating margins, adjusted net income and adjusted earnings per share eliminate certain expenses incurred and benefits recognized in the periods presented that relate primarily to our global restructuring programs, footprint optimization costs, other long-lived asset impairment charges, acquisition related costs, an earnout adjustment benefit, loss on disposal, and the related income tax impacts on these items and other tax adjustments. Management then utilizes these adjusted financial measures to assess the run rate of the Company's operations against those of comparable periods. Organic sales growth is a non-GAAP measure of sales growth excluding the impacts of foreign exchange, acquisitions and divestitures from period-over-period comparisons. Management believes reporting organic sales growth provides useful information to investors, potential investors and others, and allows for a more complete understanding of underlying sales trends by providing sales growth on a consistent basis. Free cash flow, cash conversion rate of free cash flow to net income, and the net debt to capitalization ratio, which are adjusted to exclude certain cash inflows and outlays, and include only certain balance sheet accounts from the comparable GAAP measures, are an indication of our performance in cash flow generation and also provide an indication of the Company's relative balance sheet leverage to other industrial manufacturing companies. These non-GAAP financial measures are among the primary indicators management uses as a basis for evaluating our cash flow generation and our capitalization structure. In addition, free cash flow is used as a criterion to measure and pay certain compensation-based incentives. For these reasons, management believes these non-GAAP financial measures can be useful to investors, potential investors and others. The Company's non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. The presentation of this additional information is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP.
