Lennox International Announces Record Sales, Net Income and EPS For Full-Year 2006; Fourth Quarter Adjusted EPS of $0.46; Expects EPS of $2.50 to $2.60 in 2007
DALLAS, Feb. 8 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Lennox International Inc. (NYSE: LII) today announced results for fourth quarter and full-year 2006. "Despite a year of numerous challenges, Lennox International achieved record sales and profitability in 2006," said Bob Schjerven, chief executive officer. "We successfully managed commodity price increases, the transition to a new 13 SEER energy efficiency standard for residential air conditioning, a downturn in housing starts, and unfavorable heating season weather to chart the best financial performance in our 112-year history."

Sales for full-year 2006 increased 9% to $3.7 billion, with all business segments contributing to the growth. Net income was $166 million, or $2.26 per diluted share. For full-year 2006, adjusted income from continuing operations, a non-GAAP measure, was $160 million, or $2.18 per diluted share - a 19% increase over the $1.83 per share earned from adjusted income from continuing operations in 2005. A description and reconciliation of this measure to net income are provided in the attached table.
The company generated $200 million in cash from operations and invested $74 million in capital expenditures, resulting in full-year free cash flow of $126 million. LII used $156 million to repurchase almost six million shares of common stock in 2006, including $32 million in the fourth quarter. The company ended the year with a total debt to capitalization ratio of 12%, despite an approximate $24 million reduction in equity resulting primarily from the adoption of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 158, "Employers' Accounting for Defined Benefit Pension and Other Postretirement Plans".
Unseasonably warm winter weather and the decline in residential new construction contributed to lower demand in the fourth quarter. Fourth quarter sales decreased 1% to $862 million and net income was $41 million, or $0.58 per share. Adjusted income from continuing operations was $33 million or $0.46 per share, compared to adjusted income from continuing operations of $34 million, or $0.46 per share, in the previous year's fourth quarter.
Fourth quarter results include a pre-tax loss of $2 million related to futures contracts for copper and aluminum. This amount consists of $14 million in pre-tax gains on contracts that settled in the fourth quarter, and a $16 million pre-tax loss primarily reflecting net unrealized losses on open contracts that were marked to market and the offset for net unrealized gains recorded in prior periods for contracts that settled in the fourth quarter. In addition, the company recorded net tax benefits totaling $18 million related to the release of tax contingency reserves established in prior years and the revaluation of deferred tax asset valuation allowances. These tax benefits were excluded from adjusted results.
Fourth quarter and full-year 2006 financial statements reflect the adoption of Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 108, "Considering the Effects of Prior Year Misstatements when Quantifying Misstatements in Current Year Financial Statements" ("SAB No. 108"). In accordance with SAB No. 108, the Company reduced retained earnings for 2006 by $12 million and increased net income for the second quarter of 2006 by $4 million to reflect understatements in product warranty reserves caused by misstatements that occurred in prior years, primarily for products no longer in production. The resulting adjustments do not affect previously reported cash flows from operations and the impact on prior years' results was concluded to be immaterial. Adjusted quarterly financial statements for 2006 are included with this release.
2007 Outlook
"Lennox International has established a positive earnings trend and we have opportunities in each of our businesses that will allow us to continue to grow and build shareholder value in 2007," said Schjerven. "We expect a 6% to 8% increase in LII's total revenue and an improvement of 50 basis points or more in the company's segment profit margin, resulting in 2007 earnings per share in the range of $2.50 to $2.60."
The company also reported a slow start to the year, particularly those businesses exposed to residential end markets, and consequently expects that first quarter earnings in 2007 could be below the prior year.
Fourth Quarter Segment Performance
Residential Heating & Cooling segment revenue decreased 11% during the quarter to $394 million. Industry unit volumes of heating and cooling equipment declined by an estimated 37%, as last year's fourth quarter received a significant boost from 13 SEER pre-buy activity making year-over-year comparisons difficult. Segment profit decreased to $43 million from $53 million last year due primarily to lower volume. Price improvement more than offset commodities cost increases during the quarter.
Commercial Heating & Cooling segment revenue grew 17% to $190 million. Profit doubled from $10 million in 2005 to $20 million. Sales and profitability improved in both North America and Europe, with price improvement more than offsetting material cost increases. Profitability improvement in Europe was due to strong volume growth and lower freight costs.
Service Experts segment sales decreased 3% to $161 million, but segment profit increased 32% to $8 million from $6 million in the previous year. Lower insurance costs resulting from an emphasis on safety programs and lower advertising expenses drove the improvement.
Refrigeration segment revenue rose 13% to $134 million, led by strong sales growth in the company's international markets. Segment profit decreased to $12 million from $13 million in the previous year, primarily due to an increased environmental reserve accrual in South America.

LENNOX INTERNATIONAL INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES SAB No. 108 Impact on Previously Reported Amounts (Unaudited, in millions)
During the fourth quarter of 2006, the Company adopted Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 108, "Considering the Effects of Prior Year Misstatements when Quantifying Misstatements in Current Year Financial Statements" ("SAB No. 108"). In accordance with SAB No. 108, the Company increased net income for the second quarter of 2006 by approximately $4.3 million to reflect understatements in product warranty reserves caused by misstatements that occurred in prior years, primarily for products no longer in production. The resulting adjustments do not affect previously reported cash flows from operations and the impact on prior years' results was concluded to be immaterial. Additionally, the resulting adjustments had no impact on the previously reported June 30, 2006 consolidated balance sheet. The adoption of SAB No. 108 had no impact on the previously reported amounts for three months ended March 31, 2006 and the three months ended September 30, 2006.
The following provides the impact on previously reported amounts within the Company's second quarter of 2006 related to the adoption of SFAS No. 108 (amounts in millions): For the Three Months and Six Months Ended June 30, 2006 and for the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2006 Increase (Decrease) Cost of goods sold $(6.8) Gross profit 6.8 Operational income 6.8 Income from operations before income taxes 6.8 Provision for income taxes 2.5 Net income 4.3 LENNOX INTERNATIONAL INC.
