Carlisle Companies Reports Third Quarter 2018 Results

Third Quarter 2018 Highlights:


•	Revenue of $1.2 billion increased 17.9% vs. last year, or 5.5% organic


•	GAAP earnings per diluted share (EPS) of $1.59 compared to $1.26 last year, a 26.2% increase

SCOTTSDALE, ARIZONA, October 23, 2018 - Carlisle Companies Incorporated (NYSE:CSL) reported revenues of $1,181.4 million for the third quarter of 2018, a 17.9% increase from $1,002.4 million in the third quarter of 2017. Organic revenues grew 5.5%, acquired revenues contributed 11.7% growth in the quarter, and adoption of ASC 606 revenue recognition standard increased sales 0.6%.

Carlisle reported third quarter Operating Income of $140.0 million, up 3.9% from the third quarter of 2017 primarily driven by price realization and higher sales volumes, benefits from continued execution of the Carlisle Operating System, and contributions from acquisitions. Operating Income performance was partially offset by increases in freight, labor-related, and executive retirement costs. In addition to the aforementioned drivers, Carlisle's diluted EPS benefited from a lower effective tax rate and reduced share count in the quarter.

Comment

Chris Koch, President and CEO, stated, "I am pleased to report we achieved 5.5% organic growth in the quarter, driven by strong demand, price realization in our core business, and the execution of our growth strategy for metal roofing products at CCM, continued robust commercial aircraft build rates and MedTech market strength at CIT, strength in the General Industrial markets at CFT and positive trends in off-highway vehicle markets at CBF.

In the third quarter, Carlisle experienced certain challenges at CCM that negatively affected revenues and reported operating income. These included well above average wet weather in much of the Eastern US, Midwest and Texas, which reduced days on the roof. Our pricing strategy at Accella tested the upper limits of the market and impacted volumes in the quarter. Despite these challenges, we are encouraged by continued solid underlying demand for our products across commercial construction markets, our ability to maintain share while driving price realization in core CCM products, and slated actions to accelerate integration of and improve profitability at Accella.

That said, we continue to build momentum and execute on our Vision 2025 objectives. Consistent with our key strategic initiatives, year-to-date organic growth has exceeded our long-term goal of 5%, CFT's margin improvement continues to benefit from our 2017 restructuring and vertical integration initiatives; our Carlisle Operating System (COS) has driven savings of 1.5% of sales so far this year, in line with our targeted 1-2%; and we continued to return capital to shareholders, paying $69.7 million in dividends and repurchasing $295.4 million of Carlisle shares in 2018 so far, surpassing our initial 2018 plan."
