WHITE PLAINS, N.Y., Oct 30, 2009 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- ITT | Quote | Chart | News | PowerRating -- --Revenue for the third quarter was $2.7 billion, down six percent overall and four percent organically compared to the third quarter of 2008

--Strong year-to-date free cash flow of $916 million, up 21% year-over-year

--Ten-year estimate for future asbestos liabilities completed and recorded; special items include a net charge to continuing operations of $131 million after tax, or $0.71 per share

ITT Corporation (NYSE: ITT | Quote | Chart | News | PowerRating) today reported third quarter 2009 net income from continuing operations of $66 million, or $0.36 per share. When adjusted to exclude special items, income from continuing operations for the quarter was $190 million, or $1.03 per share, exceeding the previous guidance mid-point by $0.18. The Company raised its adjusted full-year earnings forecast to $3.70 to $3.74 per share, excluding special items.

The third quarter 2009 results included improved operating performance primarily driven by productivity initiatives. Revenue for the quarter was $2.7 billion, down six percent year-over-year and down four percent excluding the impacts of foreign exchange and acquisitions on a comparable basis. Year-to-date free cash flow generation of $916 million set another record for ITT and represents a 174 percent conversion of income from continuing operations, excluding special items primarily related to the charge for asbestos liability.

"We believe ITT's performance continues to validate the benefits of a balanced portfolio that is focused on addressing a diversified set of enduring issues such as clean water and global safety and security," said Steve Loranger, ITT's chairman, president and chief executive officer. "While market challenges will remain into the near future, we believe the Company is doing what is required to emerge from the current economic environment as a much stronger company that is well positioned to grow and improve its financial performance over time."

In the third quarter 2009, ITT completed the effort described in its 2008 10-K and 2009 10-Qs to summarize existing asbestos claims and to develop an estimate of future claims, associated legal costs and insurance receivables. These claims are associated with certain ITT products, primarily pumps sold prior to 1985 that include gaskets and packing that allegedly contain asbestos and were manufactured by other companies.

Accordingly, the Company has recorded a special charge to continuing operations of $131 million after tax, or $0.71 per share, in the third quarter. The charge is based on a widely accepted external model, customized for ITT using relevant population data and the Company's historical experience. The Company used this model to project future asbestos-related claims over the next 10 years, offset by expected insurance recoveries. The net liability represents a quantification of pre-existing exposures and does not reflect any new or increased exposure for ITT. The charge and associated net liability after insurance receivables are not projected to materially impact the Company's 10-year forecasted net annual cash flows. The Company will continually update the estimated liability on a rolling 10-year basis and will record an adjustment to earnings if or when required.

Earnings Guidance Raised

As a result of its third quarter performance, ITT forecasts its full-year earnings, excluding special items, to be $3.70 to $3.74 per share. ITT is raising its guidance range from the prior earnings forecast of $3.50 to $3.70 per share. Full-year 2009 revenue is expected to be unchanged from previous guidance in the range of $10.9 billion to $11.0 billion.

"We believe our strong performance during the third quarter and our projected growth outlook for the remainder of the year underscore what ITT can accomplish by concentrating on execution and meeting our commitments," said Loranger. "We remain focused on performance and growing value across our balanced portfolio of businesses, while working diligently to understand and address the needs of our diverse customer base and continuing to increase our investments for future organic growth."

2009 Third Quarter Business Segment Results

Defense Electronics & Services

-- For the third quarter of 2009, revenue for the segment was $1.57 billion, up two percent over the comparable period in 2008. The segment recorded revenue growth at every value center, except for the Communications Systems division, where the expected reduction in domestic SINCGARS radio deliveries resulted in a negative comparison. Most notably, increased deliveries of airborne electronics systems and new program wins at the Company's Systems division fueled revenue growth.

-- Third quarter operating income of $203.3 million grew 8.3 percent from 2008 third quarter levels. Operating margins expanded 80 basis points on strong productivity gains and favorable performance on fixed price contracts.

-- During the third quarter of 2009, the segment secured a position to develop jamming capabilities for dismounted, mounted and fixed site assets of the Joint Counter Radio-Controlled Improvised Explosive Device (RC-IED) or CREW 3.3 program. This system represents the next generation of counter-IED technology development, moving from platform-based solutions to data collection and networking sensors to increase awareness of the regional battlespace. This system increases friendly forces' ability to detect and respond to these insidious threats. Defense & Electronics Services also received orders for production of other versions of next generation jammers that are designed to protect the warfighter against the ever-changing and evolving RC-IED threat.

-- Additionally, the segment received an order in early October to build two imaging systems for geostationary satellites for an international customer, which will provide round-the-clock weather forecasts and severe weather alerts. This win represents our largest space system designed for an international customer to date.

Fluid Technology

-- Third quarter 2009 revenue for the segment was $826 million, down 13 percent year-over-year and 10 percent organically. Our results outperformed expectations, despite challenged industrial, municipal and residential market conditions.

-- Segment operating performance was strong due to the impact of cost measures earlier in the year. This was more than offset by higher restructuring costs, the impact of foreign exchange transactions and pension costs, resulting in an 18 percent decline in operating income to $108 million, and an 80 basis-point decline in operating margin.

-- While general market weakness remains, Fluid Technology saw order activity stabilizing across the fluid segment in the third quarter after recent declines, and saw its first significant orders resulting from U.S. stimulus funding involving a number of municipal water treatment and transport projects. The Water and Wastewater business also secured a significant order in Spain for the largest drinking water treatment plant in Europe, to include ITT's ozone generators, filters, pumps and a pressure booster set. New investments by development banks and municipalities in China are resulting in more order activity for ITT.

-- ITT opened a new packaging and service center in Dammam, Saudi Arabia. The facility will be key to the company's ongoing penetration of the strategic oil and gas market in Saudi Arabia and the surrounding Gulf region.

Motion & Flow Control

-- Segment revenue for the third quarter 2009 was $307 million, down 22 percent in total and 16 percent organically compared to the prior year. Revenue in the automotive market exceeded expectations, primarily due to recent stimulus activity in Europe, while performance in general industrial markets met expectations, despite some contraction. Rail markets in Europe also showed gains.

-- Operating income for the segment was $40 million, down significantly year-over-year due to lower volume. Segment operating margin declined 100 basis points, with lower volume, restructuring and the impact of foreign exchange transactions more than offsetting significant improvements in productivity.

-- Motion & Flow Control is benefiting from increased activity in the global rail market. Motion Technologies received a $2.1 million order for service part kits from locomotive manufacturer Electro Motive Diesel (EMD), with deliveries beginning in January 2010.

-- Control Technologies received a $1.4 million order for large shock absorbers from Universal Safety Response, a company that designs and sells non-lethal security barriers that can stop large vehicles from crashing into sensitive installations.

Key Performance Indicators and Non-GAAP Measures

Management reviews key performance metrics including sales and revenues, segment operating income and margins, earnings per share, orders growth, and backlog, among others, in connection with its management of our business. In addition, we consider the following non-GAAP measures to be key performance indicators for purposes of this REG-G reconciliation:

Organic Sales and Revenues defined as reported GAAP sales and revenues excluding the impact of foreign currency fluctuations and contributions from acquisitions and divestitures (for the first 12 months). The Company believes that Organic Sales and Revenues provide a useful measure of the operation's underlying revenue performance after adjusting for foreign exchange, acquisitions and divestitures that may impact comparability. The Company utilizes Organic Sales and Revenues to measure, evaluate and manage the Company's revenue performance. The Company's definition of Organic Sales and Revenue may not be comparable to similar measures utilized by other companies.

Organic Orders are Non-GAAP performance measures that may provide useful information related to the Company's future revenue performance. Organic Orders exclude the impact of foreign currency fluctuations and contributions from acquisitions and divestitures (for the first 12 months). The Company's definition of Organic Orders may not be comparable to similar measures utilized by other companies.

Adjusted Income from Continuing Operations and Adjusted EPS are defined as reported GAAP Income from Continuing Operations and reported GAAP Diluted Earnings Per Share, adjusted to exclude Special Items. Special Items may include, but are not limited to, non-operating settlements or adjustments related to prior periods. These items are not a substitute for GAAP measures. Special items represent significant charges or credits that impact current results, but may not be related to the Company's ongoing operations and performance. The Company uses Adjusted Income from Continuing Operations and Adjusted EPS to measure, evaluate and manage the Company. The Company believes that results excluding Special Items provide a useful analysis of ongoing operating trends. The Company's definitions of Adjusted Income from Continuing Operations and Adjusted EPS may not be comparable to similar measures utilized by other companies.

Free Cash Flow is defined as GAAP Net Cash - Operating Activities less Capital Expenditures and other Special Items. Free Cash Flow should not be considered a substitute for income or cash flow data prepared in accordance with GAAP. The Company's definition of Free Cash Flow may not be comparable to similar measures utilized by other companies. Management believes that Free Cash Flow is an important measure of performance and it is utilized as one measure of the Company's ability to generate cash. Note that due to other financial obligations and commitments, the entire Free Cash Flow amount may not be available for discretionary purposes.

Management believes that the above metrics are useful to investors evaluating our operating performance for the periods presented, and provide a tool for evaluating our ongoing operations and our management of assets held from period to period. These metrics, however, are not a measure of financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered a substitute for sales and revenue growth (decline), or cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities as determined in accordance with GAAP and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.
