Navistar reports second quarter 2018 results

Revenues in the quarter were $2.4 billion, up 16 percent compared to $2.1 billion in the second quarter last year. The increase primarily reflects higher volumes in the company’s Core (Class 6-8 trucks and buses in the United States and Canada) market, where chargeouts were up 17 percent. Second quarter 2018 EBITDA was $174 million, compared to second quarter 2017 EBITDA of $47 million. … Continued

Revenues in the quarter were $2.4 billion, up 16 percent compared to $2.1 billion in the second quarter last year. The increase primarily reflects higher volumes in the company’s Core (Class 6-8 trucks and buses in the United States and Canada) market, where chargeouts were up 17 percent.

Second quarter 2018 EBITDA was $174 million, compared to second quarter 2017 EBITDA of $47 million. Second quarter adjusted EBITDA was $182 million, compared to adjusted EBITDA of $65 million in the comparable period last year.

“We had a great second quarter, delivering stronger than expected results by taking advantage of the robust market conditions,” said Troy A. Clarke, Navistar chairman, president and chief executive officer. “The market continues to respond favorably to our new products, especially our LT Series on highway tractor and the 13-liter A26 engine, which helped us capture two points of year-over-year share growth in the Class 8 segment.”

Navistar ended second quarter 2018 with $1.14 billion in consolidated cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities. Manufacturing cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities were $1.10 billion at the end of the quarter. “We are also pleased to report that on a trailing 12 month basis, we were manufacturing free cash flow positive by nearly $100 million,” Clarke added.

During the quarter, the company launched the International® MV™ Series line of medium-duty trucks. The MV Series launch completed the company’s Project Horizon product refresh, and reflects that initiative’s improved cab design, along with the same driver-centric enhancements already launched in Class 8 vehicles.

“We expect to see our medium share improve as we ramp up deliveries of our new MV model in the second half, and we are also expanding our bus product portfolio this summer with gasoline and rear-engine models,” said Persio Lisboa, Navistar executive vice president and chief operating officer. “Given this and our strong order performance in Q2, we’re confident we are on track to hit our 2018 goal of increasing our total Core market share.”

In the second quarter the company announced its plans to expand its ReNEWed® remanufactured components business product line-up as well as its Fleetrite® private label parts business.

Also during the quarter, Navistar demonstrated its electric school bus, chargE, which was developed with alliance partner Volkswagen Truck & Bus, on the road for the first time. The national tour kicked off on the West Coast with a number of demonstrations for customers and government officials in March and April, and will visit a number of U.S. locations throughout 2018. Additionally, the company noted that in the first 15 months of operation, Global Truck & Bus Procurement LLC, the procurement joint venture created by Navistar and Volkswagen Truck & Bus, is on track to reach its synergy targets.

Based on stronger industry conditions, the company raised its 2018 full-year guidance:

  • Industry retail deliveries of Class 6-8 trucks and buses in the United States and Canada are forecast to be 380,000 units to 410,000 units, with Class 8 retail deliveries of 250,000 to 280,000 units.
  • Navistar revenues are expected to be between $9.75 billion and $10.25 billion.
  • The company’s adjusted EBITDA is expected to be between $725 million and $775 million.
  • Year-end manufacturing cash is expected to be about $1.2 billion.

“The work we’ve done in the first half of the year growing Class 8 share, building our backlog and managing costs, combined with strong industry conditions, positions us to deliver an even stronger second half,” Clarke said.

Amounts attributable to Navistar International Corporation.

Truck Segment – Truck segment net sales increased 22 percent to $1.7 billion in second quarter 2018 compared to second quarter 2017, due to higher volumes in the company’s Core markets, higher export truck volumes, an increase in military sales, and a shift in model mix, partially offset by a decline in Mexico truck volumes. Truck chargeouts in the company’s Core market were up 17 percent year-over-year.

The Truck segment profit increased to $42 million in second quarter 2018, versus a second quarter 2017 loss of $56 million. The improvement was driven by the impact of higher volumes in the company’s Core markets and a decline in used truck losses.

Parts Segment – Parts segment second quarter 2018 net sales were $601 million, down $9 million, or one percent, compared to second quarter 2017, driven by lower U.S. volumes and Blue Diamond Parts (BDP) sales, partially offset by higher Mexico volumes and parts sales related to the Fleetrite™ brand.

The Parts segment recorded a quarterly profit of $132 million in second quarter 2018, down 14 percent versus the same period one year ago, primarily due to lower U.S. margins, higher freight-related expenses and intercompany access fees.

Global Operations Segment – Global Operations segment second quarter 2018 net sales grew 39 percent to $97 million compared to second quarter 2017. This was primarily driven by higher engine volumes in the company’s South America engine operations due to the improving Brazilian economy.

The Global Operations segment recorded a $1 million profit in second quarter 2018 compared to a $7 million loss in the same period one year ago. The year-over-year change was due to higher engine volumes and cost-reduction actions initiated in 2017.

Financial Services Segment – Financial Services segment second quarter 2018 net revenues increased 13 percent to $63 million versus the same period one year ago, primarily driven by higher overall finance receivable balances in the U.S. and Mexico.

Financial Services segment recorded a profit of $19 million in second quarter 2018, an increase of $4 million versus second quarter 2017, primarily due to improved interest margins.

SEC Regulation G Non-GAAP Reconciliation

The financial measures presented below are unaudited and not in accordance with, or an alternative for, financial measures presented in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). The non-GAAP financial information presented herein should be considered supplemental to, and not as a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP and are reconciled to the most appropriate GAAP number below.

Earnings (loss) Before Interest, Income Taxes, Depreciation, and Amortization (“EBITDA”):

We define EBITDA as our consolidated net income (loss) attributable to Navistar International Corporation, net of tax, plus manufacturing interest expense, income taxes, and depreciation and amortization. We believe EBITDA provides meaningful information to the performance of our business and therefore we use it to supplement our GAAP reporting. We have chosen to provide this supplemental information to investors, analysts and other interested parties to enable them to perform additional analyses of operating results.

Adjusted EBITDA:

We believe that adjusted EBITDA, which excludes certain identified items that we do not consider to be part of our ongoing business, improves the comparability of year to year results, and is representative of our underlying performance. Management uses this information to assess and measure the performance of our operating segments. We have chosen to provide this supplemental information to investors, analysts and other interested parties to enable them to perform additional analyses of operating results, to illustrate the results of operations giving effect to the non-GAAP adjustments shown in the below reconciliations, and to provide an additional measure of performance.

Manufacturing Cash, Cash Equivalents, and Marketable Securities:

Manufacturing cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities represent the Company’s consolidated cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities excluding cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities of our financial services operations. We include marketable securities with our cash and cash equivalents when assessing our liquidity position as our investments are highly liquid in nature. We have chosen to provide this supplemental information to investors, analysts and other interested parties to enable them to perform additional analyses of our ability to meet our operating requirements, capital expenditures, equity investments, and financial obligations.

Structural costs consist of Selling, general and administrative expenses and Engineering and product development costs.

(A)

Adjustments to pre-existing warranties reflect changes in our estimate of warranty costs for products sold in prior periods. Such adjustments typically occur when claims experience deviates from historic and expected trends. Our warranty liability is generally affected by component failure rates, repair costs, and the timing of failures. Future events and circumstances related to these factors could materially change our estimates and require adjustments to our liability. In addition, new product launches require a greater use of judgment in developing estimates until historical experience becomes available.

(B) 

In the first and second quarters of 2018, we recorded $2 million and $1 million, respectively, of impairment charges related to the sale of our railcar business in Cherokee, Alabama and certain assets under operating leases. In the first and second quarters of 2017, we recorded $2 million and $5 million respectively, of asset impairment charges related to certain assets under operating leases.

(C) 

In the first and second quarters of 2018, we recorded a benefit of $3 million and a restructuring charge of $1 million, respectively, related to adjustments for restructuring in our Truck, Global Operations and Corporate segments. In the first and second quarters of 2017, we recorded $7 million of restructuring charges related to the 2011 closure of our Chatham, Ontario plant and $2 million of Corporate restructuring charges, respectively.

(D) 

In the first quarter of 2018, we recognized an additional charge of $1 million for a jury verdict related to the Milan Maxxforce engine EGR product litigation in our Truck segment.

(E) 

In the first quarter of 2018, we recorded a charge of $46 million for the write off of debt issuance costs and discounts associated with the repurchase of our 8.25% Senior Notes and the refinancing of our previously existing Term Loan.

(F) 

In the first quarter of 2018, we purchased a group annuity contract for certain retired pension plan participants resulting in a plan remeasurement. As a result, we recorded a pension settlement accounting charge of $9 million in SG&A expenses.
