Stanley Black & Decker Reports 2Q 2020 Results NEW BRITAIN, Conn., July 30, 2020

NEW BRITAIN, Conn., July 30, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Stanley Black & Decker (NYSE: SWK) today announced second quarter 2020 financial results.

* 2Q'20 Revenues Totaled $3.1 Billion, Down 16% Versus Prior Year Related To Market-Driven Declines Resulting From COVID-19 * Operating Margin Rate Was 8.9%; Excluding Charges, Operating Margin Rate Was 12.8% Down 200 Basis Points Versus Prior Year; Margin Performance Was Aided By Strong Cost Control And Price Realization * 2Q'20 Diluted GAAP EPS Was $1.52; Excluding Charges, 2Q'20 Diluted EPS Was $1.60 * Quarterly Common Stock Dividend Increased To $0.70 Per Share As Recently Announced * Guidance Continues To Be Suspended; Company's Scenario Planning Framework Provided In April For Full Year 2020 Will Be Updated On Today's Earnings Call

2Q'20 Key Points:

* Net sales for the quarter were $3.1 billion, down 16% versus prior year, as acquisitions (+2%) and price (+1%) were more than offset by volume (-17%) and currency (-2%). * Gross margin rate for the quarter was 32.2%. Excluding charges, the rate was 33.5%, down 130 basis points versus prior year as the impacts from lower volume as well as currency and carryover tariff headwinds were partially offset by price, productivity and strong cost management. * SG&A expenses were 23.3% of sales. Excluding charges, SG&A expenses were 20.7% of sales compared to 20.1% in 2Q'19, reflecting previously announced cost controls partially offsetting the impact from lower volume. * The tax rate was (105.6%) which included a $119 million one-time benefit associated with a supply chain reorganization. Excluding charges and one-time benefit, the tax rate was 15.0% versus 11.6% in 2Q'19. * Working capital turns for the quarter were 5.6, down 1.1 turns from prior year due to maintaining relatively consistent inventory levels to serve a potential second half demand improvement on a lower revenue base.

Stanley Black & Decker's President and CEO, James M. Loree, commented, "We effectively managed through a multitude of challenges during the second quarter to finish with a strong outcome given the environment. Our team demonstrated agility in the face of changing demand, swiftly implementing appropriate cost reduction actions while also responding to serve a rapidly improving demand picture in Tools & Storage and Security.

"As we turn to the second half, we remain focused on four key priorities: (1) ensuring the health and safety of our employees and supply chain partners; (2) maintaining business continuity and financial strength and stability; (3) serving our customers as they provide essential products and services to the world; and (4) doing our part to mitigate the impact of the virus across the globe. We are making critical decisions around these priorities every day to safely operate our business and successfully navigate the global pandemic. I am pleased with how our employees have responded and confident in our ability to successfully position the business to capitalize on improving market conditions and growth opportunities ahead."

* Tools & Storage net sales declined 16% versus 2Q'19 from the impacts of lower volume (-16%) and currency (-1%) partially offset by price (+1%). Organic revenues across all regions were impacted by reduced business activity related to COVID-19 with North America -10%, Europe -21% and emerging markets -29%. The North America organic decline was driven by channel inventory reductions and reduced construction activity. Exceptionally strong DIY demand emerged in our global e-commerce and North American retail channels during late April and continued throughout the quarter as well as the measured weeks in July, which significantly improved the overall result. Point-of-sale performance of our products in these channels rose to all time high levels in the May, June, July period while customer stocks are currently at historically low levels. Europe and emerging markets were impacted by decreased economic activity caused by rolling COVID-19 geographic lockdowns, customer closures and diminished consumer confidence. As the quarter progressed, Europe experienced improving demand while emerging markets continued to be choppy. Overall the Tools & Storage segment profit rate, excluding charges, was 17.0%, flat versus 2Q'19, as the benefits from productivity, swift and effective cost controls and price offset the impacts from lower volume, tariffs and currency. * Industrial net sales declined 20% versus 2Q'19 as the CAM acquisition (+10%) was offset by volume (-29%) and currency (-1%). The trough of the organic volume decline occurred in April with modest sequential improvement each month since. Engineered Fastening organic revenues were down 35% due to lower global automotive light vehicle and general industrial production. Infrastructure organic revenues were down 19% from lower volumes in Attachment Tools and Oil & Gas. Overall Industrial segment profit rate, excluding charges, was 8.8%, down from the 2Q'19 rate, as the significant impact from volume declines was partially mitigated by cost actions. * Security net sales declined 11% versus 2Q'19 as volume (-9%), currency (-2%) and divestitures (-1%) were partially offset by price (+1%). North America declined 7% and Europe was down 10% organically. All businesses were impacted by customer restrictions, which were most pronounced early in the quarter. The backlog in electronic security remains in a healthy position, up 16%, supporting an anticipated improvement in installation revenues during the second half of the year. The overall Security segment profit rate, excluding charges, was 9.6%, which was down from the 2Q'19 rate of 11.2%, as price and cost control were more than offset by lower volume.

Loree continued, "We are delighted with the second quarter performance under the circumstances. In particular, our ability to deliver against the weak but rapidly improving demand picture while maintaining our $1 billion cost reduction program enabled near peak level operating margin rates in Tools & Storage during a quarter currently believed to be a trough, was very encouraging."

2020 Outlook

The Company withdrew its full year guidance in April as a result of the uncertain macro environment and will continue to refrain from providing such guidance at this time. Information about the Company's second half 2020 scenario planning will be provided on today's earnings call.

The Company is proceeding with the $1 billion cost reduction program, announced on April 2, which we continue to expect will deliver $500 million in cost savings in 2020. During the second quarter $175 million of savings were realized, representing a strong start to the program. Given the risks and uncertainties regarding the global economic outlook, management has taken steps to make some of the furloughs and reduced work weeks permanent while the remaining others will be returned to full time status as of early September. This will ensure more sustainability of the cost reduction program while providing more employment stability for our remaining associates.

Donald Allan Jr., Executive Vice President and CFO, commented, "We are managing through this crisis in a manner to preserve operational flexibility while acting decisively to prepare for and navigate a range of potential demand scenarios. The team's performance in the second quarter clearly demonstrated our ability to quickly shift to changing demand scenarios while maintaining our focus on our $1 billion cost reduction program. In this uncertain environment, we will maintain this flexible posture as we move forward, keeping our cost reduction and capital deployment plans in place, but preparing to ramp back up to more normalized demand levels. Also, new growth opportunities have emerged during this crisis in our Tools & Storage and Security businesses and we will pursue them with targeted investments in the second half of 2020. We remain focused on maintaining a strong operational foundation and balance sheet and we are confident that we will be in a position to benefit from a recovery."

Merger And Acquisition ("M&A") Related And Other Charges

Total pre-tax M&A related and other charges in 2Q'20 were $169.5 million, primarily related to the cost reduction program, Security business transformation and margin resiliency initiatives, and non-cash inventory step-up charges. Gross margin included $42.6 million of these charges while SG&A included $79.2 million. Other, net and Restructuring included $19.8 million and $27.9 million of these charges, respectively.

Income taxes included a $118.8 million one-time benefit related to a supply chain reorganization.

Share of net earnings of equity method investment included $3.2 million of charges.

Management uses operating margin and its percentage of net sales as key measures to assess the performance of the Company as a whole, as well as the related measures at the segment level. Free cash flow is defined as cash flow from operations less capital and software expenditures. Management considers free cash flow an important indicator of its liquidity, as well as its ability to fund future growth and to provide a return to the shareowners.
