CLARCOR Inc. (NYSE: CLC) reported that its third quarter
diluted earnings per share were $0.73, a $0.01 increase from the third
quarter of 2015. Higher diluted earnings per share were positively
impacted by a 1.2 percentage point improvement in operating margin which
more than offset the impact of a 7% reduction in net sales. Diluted
earnings per share of $0.72 in last year’s third quarter were favorably
impacted by approximately $0.15 from the net gain on the disposition of
the packaging business, J.L. Clark, which occurred in last year’s third
quarter, and unfavorably impacted by approximately $0.09 from the
impairment of the BioProcess investments noted below. Excluding the
aggregate impact of these two items, non-GAAP adjusted diluted earnings
per share increased $0.07, or 11%, from the third quarter of 2015, as
reflected in the table on the next page.
To allow investors to better compare and evaluate our historical
financial performance, we are presenting non-GAAP adjusted financial
results in the table following this paragraph. Non-GAAP adjusted
financial results for the third quarter of 2016 exclude a favorable $0.1
million net adjustment for upfront expenses for cost reduction
initiatives. Non-GAAP adjusted financial results for the third quarter
of 2015 exclude the financial results of our J.L. Clark packaging
business disposed of on June 27, 2015, a net gain on the sale of such
packaging business, and the impairment loss related to our BioProcess
H2O and Algae investments. Please refer to pages 13 through 16 of this
earnings release for reconciliations and additional information with
respect to non-GAAP adjusted financial results for the third quarter and
the first nine months of 2015 and 2016.

Chris Conway, CLARCOR’s Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer,
commented, “Our third quarter was highlighted by several significant
strategic advancements including our entry into a long-term contract
with GE in respect of its H-class gas turbine platform, our release of
the Channel Flow EXOTM heavy-duty engine air filtration
product line and strategic investments occurring in connection with our
second quarter acquisition of filtration media technology company
FibeRio. Each of these strategic advancements is indicative of our
continued efforts to establish CLARCOR as an industry leader in
innovative filtration technology development. We provide additional
detail for each of these initiatives later in this release. In addition
to this focus on long-term strategic growth, we have continued to focus
on operating execution as illustrated by our third quarter financial
results. Diluted earnings per share improved $0.01 from last year’s
third quarter despite the third quarter of 2015 being favorably
influenced by approximately $0.06 on a net basis from the J.L. Clark
disposition and the impairment of our BioProcess investments. Third
quarter 2016 operating margin improved 1.2 percentage points from last
year’s third quarter which more than offset the impact of a 7% reduction
in net sales.
“The $7 million, or 5%, decline in net sales in our Engine/Mobile
Filtration segment from last year’s third quarter was partially driven
by lower average foreign currency exchange rates which negatively
influenced net sales by $2 million, or 2%. The remaining $5 million net
sales decline was primarily due to lower sales to a large retail
customer, lower sales into the U.S. independent aftermarket and lower
sales to the automotive filtration market, partially offset by higher
fuel filtration product sales to off-road agricultural and construction
equipment markets. We believe lower third quarter net sales to the large
retail customer were due in part to a strategic reorganization taking
place at this customer, and we expect our filtration sales to such
customer to recover in the fourth quarter. Lower third quarter net sales
into the U.S. independent aftermarket compared to last year’s third
quarter was heavily impacted by continued declines in heavy-duty engine
filtration sales into oil & gas markets. We believe these lower sales
could continue into our fourth quarter and early fiscal 2017. Higher
fuel filtration product sales to off-road markets in the third quarter
were partly due to more stable demand in these end-markets compared to
this period last year and partly due to Lean operational
improvements introduced this year which enabled us to work through an
accumulation of past due customer shipments in the third quarter.
Although we do not anticipate significant sales growth in these off-road
fuel filtration markets in our fourth quarter or the first half of
fiscal 2017, these end markets have shown signs of stabilization.
“The $14 million, or 7%, net sales reduction in our
Industrial/Environmental Filtration segment from last year’s third
quarter was partially driven by lower average foreign currency exchange
rates which negatively influenced net sales by $3 million, or 2%. The
remaining $11 million reduction was primarily the result of lower
natural gas and industrial air and liquid filtration sales, partially
offset by higher HVAC and gas turbine filtration sales, as well as
additional sales resulting from the acquisition of TDC Filter
Manufacturing completed in the first quarter of 2016. Natural gas
filtration sales declined approximately $16 million, or 26%, from last
year’s third quarter driven by a 51% reduction in capital vessel sales
which was partially offset by a 5% increase in aftermarket filtration
sales. Similar to recent prior quarters, a majority of the
year-over-year decline in natural gas vessel sales was driven by lower
activity in the U.S., where we benefited from natural gas shale
extraction infrastructure projects in prior years. As we will further
discuss in our updated earnings guidance, the momentum in our oil & gas
markets is not favorable. Significant projects continue to be delayed,
and we believe--due to industry as opposed to competitive dynamics--that
capital vessel filtration sales into these end markets will continue to
decline in our fourth quarter and into fiscal 2017. Sales of HVAC
filtration products increased $4 million, or 14%, from last year’s third
quarter primarily due to continued higher sales into the Middle East.
Net sales into our gas turbine filtration market increased $3 million,
or 16%, from last year’s third quarter as first-fit sales increased 32%
and aftermarket sales increased 6%. Overall, our gas turbine filtration
product sales in the first nine months of 2016 have increased 16% from
the same period last year.
“Our third quarter operating margin of 15.3% increased 1.2 percentage
points from last year’s third quarter. This increase was driven by a 1.0
percentage point improvement in gross margin percentage and a 0.2
percentage point reduction in selling and administrative expenses as a
percentage of net sales. Higher gross margin percentage compared to last
year’s third quarter was primarily driven by lower material cost as a
percentage of net sales, partly offset by lower absorption of fixed
manufacturing costs from lower net sales. The reduction in material cost
as a percentage of net sales was the result of lower commodity costs,
favorable sales mix and our company-wide purchasing cost reduction
initiative. Selling and administrative expenses declined approximately
$6 million from the third quarter of 2015. This reduction was primarily
driven by $3 million lower headcount-related costs and $3 million lower
bad debt expense from improved past due accounts receivable collections.
“Our favorable operating margin performance compared to last year’s
third quarter is indicative of the strides we are making with both our
cost reduction initiative program and our on-going Lean
implementation as part of our roll-out of the CLARCOR Management
System. We believe we are on track to realize in excess of $20
million in cost savings in fiscal 2016 pursuant to our cost reduction
initiative program. We intend to explore our ability to implement
additional cost reduction initiatives in fiscal 2017 and beyond,
including in connection with our natural gas filtration business based
upon expected continued top-line headwinds in that market, and we
anticipate providing further updates regarding cost reduction
initiatives in our fourth quarter earnings release. However, despite
recent challenges in the global oil & gas industry, we continue to
remain excited about the long-term growth prospects of our natural gas
filtration business. Natural gas continues to be the most prevalent,
clean-burning fossil fuel, and we believe its share of global energy
consumption should continue to grow for several decades. We believe our
natural gas filtration business will benefit from this anticipated
global energy trend.”
Update on Strategic Initiatives
Chris Conway, CLARCOR’s Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer,
further commented, “We are excited about our entry into a ten-year
strategic supply and development arrangement with GE, under which we
will supply GE with 100% of its requirements for filters and SmartParts
for GE’s advanced technology H-class gas turbines and a majority of GE’s
requirements for certain other gas turbine platforms, while
simultaneously serving as the sole developer of the next-generation air
inlet filtration system for the H-class gas turbine. We believe this
long-term arrangement with a market-leading company like GE illustrates
our advancement as a filtration technology solution provider and is
indicative of the benefits that we expect to derive from our increased
investments in technology and innovation.
“In addition to deepening our ties and working closely with GE to
develop a new air inlet filtration system for the H-class, we believe we
are getting in on the ground floor as the deployment cycle for the next
generation of advanced technology turbines, the H-class, begins. We
believe this is analogous to the deployment of the F-class twenty plus
years ago. It has been our experience that, for a variety of reasons,
aftermarket sales to heavy-duty gas turbine operators are particularly
sticky, and we believe that this arrangement will increase our
opportunity to be the preferred supplier in the higher margin
aftermarket over the next ten to fifteen years. For this reason, we view
certain pricing concessions that we made for H-class products during the
initial phase of our H-class arrangement as a strategic long-term
investment. While this investment will create certain margin headwinds
for our Industrial Air Group during this initial phase, we believe it is
appropriate in light of the anticipated enhanced opportunity to serve
aftermarket customers in the years to come. Moreover, we anticipate that
the sales under our non-H-class gas turbine supply agreement--which is
at regularly negotiated pricing and also has a ten-year term--will
soften the financial impact of these initial concessions, and that
margins on our first-fit H-class product sales will return to historical
levels once the initial phase of the H-class agreement has ended.
Additional details regarding our deal with GE can be found in our 8-K
filing of this Press Release.
“In the second quarter we completed our acquisition of FibeRio, a
technology company focused on the research, development and
commercialization of advanced filtration media and performance fabrics.
Through this acquisition, we acquired proprietary technology which we
believe will enable us to develop nanofiber and other media solutions
with superior filtration capabilities at lower production costs than
traditional media. We expect this technology will support various growth
initiatives including our development efforts for the next-generation
air inlet filtration system for the GE H-class gas turbine platform. As
a result of our entering into the deal with GE, we have expedited
various FibeRio development and transition activities, and we expect to
accelerate certain costs in 2016 as a result. We believe the FibeRio
acquisition further enhances our progress in becoming a premier
innovative filtration solution provider to customers across our many
diverse filtration end-markets.
“Another significant example of our advancement as a filtration
technology solution provider is our recent release of the Channel Flow
EXOTM product line at our CLARCOR Engine Mobile Group
(“CEMG”). This aftermarket product line includes heavy-duty engine air
intake filtration products that offer our customers a compelling
alternative to the OE first-fit honeycomb filters supplied by a
competitor. The development of this product line is just one example of
our design engineers at our business units working with our
technologists at our CLARCOR Innovation Center to introduce innovative,
new products for our customers. We have released two Channel Flow EXOTM
air intake filters to market in the past several months, and we
anticipate releasing approximately fifty additional air filters to
market over the next eighteen months. We take great pride in offering
our aftermarket distribution customers one of the broadest heavy-duty
engine filtration product lines in the industry, and the introduction of
Channel Flow EXOTM demonstrates our commitment to maintain
this broad product offering.”

Consolidated net sales guidance for 2016 was lowered from our previous
guidance by approximately $10 million at the mid-point as the result of
anticipated lower net sales in our Industrial/Environmental Filtration
segment primarily as the result of expected continued headwinds in our
natural gas capital vessel filtration market and our industrial air and
liquid filtration product markets. We have lowered our previous guidance
with respect to consolidated operating margin primarily as the result of
an expected decline in our Industrial/Environmental Filtration segment,
which we lowered from 11.3% at the mid-point in our previous guidance to
10.7% at the mid-point in our current guidance. This reduction was
driven by lower anticipated fixed cost absorption in our natural gas
filtration business as a result of lower expected sales, lower
anticipated margin on first-fit gas turbine filtration products, and
higher anticipated allocated research & development expenses pursuant to
the FibeRio acquisition. We have lowered our previous guidance with
respect to operating margin in our Engine/Mobile Filtration segment from
18.3% at the mid-point in our previous guidance to 18.1% at the
mid-point in our current guidance primarily due to anticipated lower
absorption of fixed manufacturing costs.
Our 2016 earnings guidance includes approximately $7.0 million of net
interest and other expense. We project 2016 cash from operations to be
between $220 million and $230 million (excluding after-tax proceeds from
the patent litigation award). We expect capital expenditures to be
between $35 million and $45 million, our effective tax rate to be
between 30.5% and 31.0%, and 49.1 million average diluted shares
outstanding. Our 2016 fiscal calendar contains a fifty-third fiscal
week. This additional week falls in our 2016 fiscal fourth quarter.
CLARCOR will be holding a conference call to discuss the third quarter
2016 results at 10:00 a.m. CT on September 15, 2016. Interested parties

CLARCOR INC. 2016 UNAUDITED THIRD QUARTER RESULTS, continued Reconciliation
of Third Quarter 2016 GAAP Financial Results to Non-GAAP Adjusted Results
In addition to the GAAP results, this earnings release presents
information with respect to non-GAAP cost of sales, non-GAAP gross
profit, non-GAAP selling and administrative expenses, non-GAAP operating
profit, non-GAAP other, net, non-GAAP other income (expense), non-GAAP
earnings before income taxes, non-GAAP provision for income taxes,
non-GAAP net earnings, non-GAAP basic and diluted earnings per share,
non-GAAP gross margin percentage, non-GAAP selling and administrative
expenses as a percentage of net sales and non-GAAP operating margin, for
the quarter ended August 27, 2016. These non-GAAP financial measures are
not in accordance with, or an alternative for, generally accepted
accounting principles in the United States. The GAAP measures most
directly comparable to these non-GAAP measures are cost of sales, gross
profit, selling and administrative expenses, operating profit, other,
net, other income (expense), earnings before income taxes, provision for
income taxes, net earnings, basic and diluted earnings per share, gross
margin percentage, selling and administrative expenses as a percentage
of net sales and operating margin, respectively.
The quarter ended August 27, 2016 non-GAAP financial measures provided
in this release exclude upfront expenses for cost reduction initiatives.
Although these financial measures excluding this item in the quarter
ended August 27, 2016 are not measures of financial performance under
GAAP, the Company believes that providing these non-GAAP financial
measures better enables investors to understand and evaluate the
Company's historical and prospective operating performance. In addition,
the Company believes that removing the impact of this item provides a
more comparable measure of the changes in these financial measures for
the quarter ended August 27, 2016 compared to the quarter ended August
29, 2015.
These non-GAAP financial measures may have limitations as analytical
tools, and management does not intend these measures to be considered in
isolation or as a substitute for the related GAAP measures. Following
are reconciliations to the most comparable GAAP financial measures of
these non-GAAP financial measures.

CLARCOR INC. 2016 UNAUDITED THIRD QUARTER RESULTS, continued Reconciliation
of Third Quarter 2015 GAAP Financial Results to Non-GAAP Adjusted Results
In addition to the GAAP results, this earnings release presents
information with respect to non-GAAP net sales, non-GAAP cost of sales,
non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP selling and administrative expenses,
non-GAAP operating profit, non-GAAP other, net, non-GAAP other income
(expense), non-GAAP earnings before income taxes, non-GAAP provision for
income taxes, non-GAAP net earnings, non-GAAP basic and diluted earnings
per share, non-GAAP gross margin percentage, non-GAAP selling and
administrative expenses as a percentage of net sales and non-GAAP
operating margin, for the quarter ended August 29, 2015. These non-GAAP
financial measures are not in accordance with, or an alternative for,
generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. The GAAP
measures most directly comparable to these non-GAAP measures are net
sales, cost of sales, gross profit, selling and administrative expenses,
operating profit, other, net, other income (expense), earnings before
income taxes, provision for income taxes, net earnings, basic and
diluted earnings per share, gross margin percentage, selling and
administrative expenses as a percentage of net sales and operating
margin, respectively.
The quarter ended August 29, 2015 non-GAAP financial measures provided
in this release exclude the financial results of our J.L. Clark
packaging business disposed of during the third quarter of 2015, a net
gain on the sale of such packaging business, and an impairment loss
related to our BioProcess H2O and Algae investments. Although these
financial measures excluding these items are not measures of financial
performance under GAAP, the Company believes that providing these
non-GAAP financial measures better enables investors to understand and
evaluate the Company's historical and prospective operating performance.
In addition, the Company believes that removing the impact of the
financial results of these items provides a more comparable measure of
the changes in these financial measures for the quarter ended August 29,
2015 compared to the quarter ended August 27, 2016.
These non-GAAP financial measures may have limitations as analytical
tools, and management does not intend these measures to be considered in
isolation or as a substitute for the related GAAP measures. Following
are reconciliations to the most comparable GAAP financial measures of
these non-GAAP financial measures.

CLARCOR INC. 2016 UNAUDITED THIRD QUARTER RESULTS, continued Reconciliation
of First Nine Months 2016 GAAP Financial Results to Non-GAAP Adjusted
Results
In addition to the GAAP results, this earnings release presents
information with respect to non-GAAP cost of sales, non-GAAP gross
profit, non-GAAP selling and administrative expenses, non-GAAP operating
profit, non-GAAP other, net, non-GAAP other income (expense), non-GAAP
earnings before income taxes, non-GAAP provision for income taxes,
non-GAAP net earnings, non-GAAP basic and diluted earnings per share,
non-GAAP gross margin percentage, non-GAAP selling and administrative
expenses as a percentage of net sales and non-GAAP operating margin, for
the first nine months ended August 27, 2016. These non-GAAP financial
measures are not in accordance with, or an alternative for, generally

most directly comparable to these non-GAAP measures are cost of sales,

other, net, other income (expense), earnings before income taxes,
provision for income taxes, net earnings, basic and diluted earnings per
share, gross margin percentage, selling and administrative expenses as a

The first nine months ended August 27, 2016 non-GAAP financial measures
provided in this release exclude the patent litigation award received
from 3M Company, upfront expenses for cost reduction initiatives
including lease termination payments related to our exit of a natural
gas filtration vessel manufacturing facility in Australia, costs
associated with the exit of an HVAC filtration facility in the U.S., and
severance and other employee termination benefit costs pursuant to
reductions in force. Although these financial measures excluding these
