Strong operating cash flow of $0.7 billion, 26% of sales

Praxair, Inc. (NYSE:PX) reported second-quarter net income and diluted
earnings per share of $399 million and $1.39, respectively.
Sales in the second quarter were $2,665 million, 3% below the prior-year
quarter, primarily due to the impact of negative currency translation of
4% and lower cost pass-through of 1%. Excluding these impacts, sales
were 2% higher than the prior-year quarter due to growth from
acquisitions and higher pricing. Overall volumes were comparable to the
prior-year quarter. Volume growth from new on-site projects, largely in
Asia, Europe and South America, was offset by lower base business
volumes in the Americas, due primarily to weaker industrial
manufacturing activity in the United States and Brazil, and weaker
demand in the upstream energy end-market in North America.
Operating profit in the second quarter of $588 million was 23% above the
prior-year quarter of $480 million. Excluding the prior-year quarter
impact of a charge relating to a cost reduction program, operating
profit was 6% lower, and 2% lower excluding currency effects. The
operating profit margin as a percentage of sales was 22.1% and the
EBITDA margin was 33.0%.
Second-quarter cash flow from operations of $706 million funded $357
million of capital expenditures. Acquisition expenditures in the quarter
of $262 million were primarily related to the acquisition of a carbon
dioxide business in Europe. In addition, noncontrolling interest
expenditures of $107 million were largely attributed to the acquisition
of the remaining 34% interest in the company’s Scandinavian industrial
gas joint venture. The company paid $214 million of dividends. After-tax
return on capital and return on equity for the quarter were 12.2% and
34.0%, respectively.
Commenting on the financial results and business outlook, Chairman and
Chief Executive Officer Steve Angel said, “Praxair’s industrial gas
businesses in Asia, Europe and South America grew volumes while
benefiting from new on-site project start-ups. However, North America
volumes experienced further declines due to weaker upstream energy and
U.S. manufacturing activity. Globally, consumer-related end-markets
remained healthy and we completed a synergistic European carbon dioxide
acquisition that will further expand our food and beverage end-market
exposure.
“Praxair’s strategy of optimizing the base business, growing resilient
end-markets, executing the project backlog and capitalizing on
acquisition and project opportunities continues to drive strong value
creation. During the second quarter, these efforts by Praxair employees
resulted in robust operating cash flow generation at 26% of sales, and
in a mixed macro-economic environment, delivered solid operating and
EBITDA margins of 22.1% and 33.0%, respectively.
“As we look to the remainder of the year, while currency translation
appears to be less of a headwind at current foreign exchange rates, we
do not anticipate significant underlying economic improvement in the
second half. Project activity remains strong along the U.S. Gulf Coast,
and we continue to expect to grow capital investments with new long-term
customer supply contracts to further secure future growth. Praxair’s
relentless focus on operational excellence and financial discipline will
consistently deliver strong cash flow and earnings per share for our
shareholders.”
For the third quarter of 2016, Praxair expects adjusted diluted earnings
per share in the range of $1.35 to $1.42, which excludes the impact of
pension settlement charges of approximately $0.01 per share expected to
be recorded. As a result, GAAP diluted earnings per share is expected to
be in the range of $1.34 to $1.41.
For full-year 2016, Praxair expects adjusted diluted earnings per share
to be in the range of $5.45 to $5.60. This guidance assumes a negative
currency translation impact of approximately 3% year over year. This
full-year guidance excludes a $0.05 per share impact of a bond
redemption charge taken in the first quarter and a pension settlement
expected to be recorded in the third quarter. As a result, GAAP diluted
earnings per share is expected to be in the range of $5.40 to $5.55.
Full-year capital expenditures are expected to be approximately $1.4
billion.
Following is additional detail on second-quarter 2016 results by segment.
In North America, second-quarter sales were $1,411 million, 5% below the
prior-year quarter. Excluding cost pass-through and negative currency
translation, sales were 1% lower than the prior-year quarter. Price
attainment and volume growth to food and beverage, healthcare and
refining customers were more than offset by weaker sales to upstream
energy and manufacturing end-markets. Operating profit was $359 million.
In Europe, second-quarter sales were $355 million, 7% above the
prior-year quarter. Organic sales grew 4% from the prior year due to
higher volumes, including new project start-ups, and higher price.
Acquisitions contributed 3% growth, primarily related to a carbon
dioxide business largely serving the food and beverage end-market.
Operating profit of $68 million grew 8% from the prior year, and 6%,
excluding currency translation, from higher price and volumes.
In South America, second-quarter sales were $358 million, 8% below the
prior-year quarter. Organic sales, excluding negative currency
translation, grew 5% primarily from higher price and new on-site
projects. Operating profit was $70 million.
Sales in Asia were $393 million in the quarter, 2% above the prior-year
quarter, and 6% higher excluding negative currency impact. Volume growth
included new plant start-ups in China and India. Operating profit was
$67 million.
Praxair Surface Technologies had second-quarter sales of $148 million as
compared to $150 million in the prior-year quarter. Organic sales were
2% lower as favorable price and higher aerospace volumes were more than
offset by weaker energy end-market sales. Operating profit was $24
million.

(b)
|
|
During the second quarter 2016, Praxair adopted the FASB's
Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2016-09 relating to the
accounting for stock compensation. Accordingly, effective with the
2016 second quarter, income taxes and operating cash flows include
excess tax benefits related to stock compensation. Additionally,
withholding tax payments related to stock compensation are required
to be presented as financing versus operating cash flows on a
retrospective basis.
|
|
|
|
(c)
|
|
2016 includes a $16 million charge to interest expense ($10 million
after-tax, or $0.04 per diluted share) in the first quarter related
to the redemption of the $325 million 5.20% notes due 2017.

quarter related to lump sum benefit payments made from the U.S.
supplemental pension plan, and (ii) pre-tax charges of $19 million
($13 million after-tax, or $0.04 per diluted share) in the third
quarter and $146 million ($112 million after-tax and non-controlling
interests, or $0.39 per diluted share) in the second quarter,
primarily related to cost reduction actions taken in response to

and energy related end-markets. The cost reduction charges by
segment are as follows: $67 million in South America; $34 million in
North America; $25 million in Asia; $20 million in Europe; and $19
million in Surface Technologies.

The following non-GAAP measures are intended to supplement investors’
understanding of the company’s financial information by providing
measures which investors, financial analysts and management use to help
evaluate the company’s financial leverage, return on capital and
operating performance. Items which the company does not believe to be
indicative of on-going business trends are excluded from these

measures. Adjusted amounts exclude the impacts of the 2016 first quarter

charges, and 2014 fourth quarter pension settlement, bond redemption and
loss on Venezuela currency devaluation.
