DAVIDSON, N.C.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Ingersoll Rand Inc. (NYSE: IR) reported third-quarter revenues of $1.3 billion up 124% versus prior year as reported revenues, due primarily to the Transaction. Compared to supplemental adjusted revenues of $1.5 billion in 2019, reported revenues declined 10%. Reported net income attributable to Ingersoll Rand Inc. in the quarter was $30 million, or earnings of $0.07 per share, based on share count of 422 million, compared to prior year as reported net income attributable to Ingersoll Rand Inc. of $41 million, or $0.20 per share, based on share count of 209 million. Adjusted Net Income was $168 million, or $0.40 per share, based on share count of 422 million, compared to prior year Supplemental Further Adjusted Net Income of $169 million, or $0.39 per share, based on share count of 420 million.

“Our third-quarter performance demonstrates the strength of our employees to drive the integration with rigor around IRX, resulting in accelerated growth and margin expansion,” said Vicente Reynal, Chief Executive Officer. “I am pleased with our continued sequential improvement across all of our segments, especially given the challenging macro-environment. We continue to deliver strong free cash flow and improve our liquidity position which will support our investments in future organic and inorganic growth activities. With all our employees recently becoming owners of the company, we now have approximately 16,000 people driving in a common direction to deliver value as shareholders. Looking ahead, I am very excited for the future of Ingersoll Rand as we embark on a multi-year transformation to help make life better for our employees, customers and communities.”

Transaction Integration Update

As part of the company’s ongoing strategy to drive increased engagement and an ownership mindset across the entire employee base, Ingersoll Rand announced its all employee equity grant on September 21. The grant totaled to $150 million dollars and was distributed to nearly 16,000 employees worldwide. The company will be deploying ownership training in the fourth quarter with the goal of educating our employee-shareholders on how to drive net working capital improvement across the enterprise.

The company remains on track to deliver $250 million of synergy-related cost savings by the third anniversary of the Transaction. To date, approximately $150 million of annualized cost actions have been executed with expected in-year 2020 savings of approximately $100 million.⁴

Balance Sheet and Cash Flow

The company remains in a strong financial position with ample liquidity of $2.3 billion, which is an increase of approximately $730 million from the end of the first quarter. Free cash flow continues to increase. On a reported basis, Ingersoll Rand generated $187 million of cash flow from operating activities and invested $8 million in capital expenditures, resulting in free cash flow of $179 million, compared to cash flow from operating activities of $114 million and free cash flow of $105 million in the year-ago period. Operating cash flows in the third quarter of 2020 include outflows of approximately $26 million related to synergy delivery costs and stand-up related outflows. Net debt to Supplemental Adjusted EBITDA leverage was 2.5x for the third quarter, which was a 0.1x improvement as compared to prior quarter.

2020 Outlook

Due to the continued uncertainty of current economic conditions associated with COVID-19 and its impact on end markets, Ingersoll Rand is not providing 2020 guidance at this time. The company will look to provide annual guidance at an appropriate time.

Non-U.S. GAAP Measures of Financial Performance

In addition to consolidated GAAP financial measures, Ingersoll Rand reviews various non-GAAP financial measures, including “Adjusted EBITDA,” “Supplemental Adjusted EBITDA,” “Adjusted Net Income,” “Supplemental Further Adjusted Net Income,” “Supplemental Further Adjusted Diluted EPS,” “Adjusted Diluted EPS,” “Free Cash Flow,” “Supplemental Revenue” and “Incrementals/Decrementals.”

Ingersoll Rand believes Supplemental Revenue, Supplemental Further Adjusted Net Income, Supplemental Further Adjusted Diluted EPS and Supplemental Adjusted EBITDA are helpful supplemental measures to assist management and investors in evaluating the Company’s operating results as they provide supplemental information about the Company’s financial performance on a combined basis as if the Transaction had occurred on January 1, 2018. Ingersoll Rand believes Adjusted EBITDA, Supplemental Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income, Supplemental Further Adjusted Net Income, Supplemental Further Adjusted Diluted EPS, Adjusted Diluted EPS and Supplemental Revenue are helpful supplemental measures to assist management and investors in evaluating the Company’s operating results as they exclude certain items that are unusual in nature or whose fluctuation from period to period do not necessarily correspond to changes in the operations of Ingersoll Rand’s business. Adjusted EBITDA represents net income before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization and certain non-cash, non-recurring and other adjustment items. Supplemental Adjusted EBITDA represents Adjusted EBITDA as if the Transaction had occurred on January 1, 2018. Adjusted Net Income is defined as net income including interest, depreciation and amortization of non-acquisition related intangible assets and excluding other items used to calculate Adjusted EBITDA and further adjusted for the tax effect of these exclusions. Supplemental Further Adjusted Net Income represents Adjusted Net Income as if the Transaction had occurred on January 1, 2018. Ingersoll Rand believes that the adjustments applied in presenting Adjusted EBITDA, Supplemental Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income and Supplemental Further Adjusted Net Income are appropriate to provide additional information to investors about certain material non-cash items and about non-recurring items that the Company does not expect to continue at the same level in the future. Adjusted Diluted EPS is defined as Adjusted Net Income divided by Adjusted Diluted Average Shares Outstanding. Supplemental Further Adjusted Diluted EPS is defined as Supplemental Further Adjusted Net Income divided by Adjusted Diluted Average Shares Outstanding as if the Transaction had occurred on January 1, 2018. Supplemental Revenue represents revenue for the Company as if the Transaction had occurred on January 1, 2018. Incrementals/Decrementals are defined as the change in Adjusted EBITDA versus the prior year period divided by the change in revenue versus the prior year period.

Ingersoll Rand uses Free Cash Flow to review the liquidity of its operations. Ingersoll Rand measures Free Cash Flow as cash flows from operating activities less capital expenditures. Ingersoll Rand believes Free Cash Flow is a useful supplemental financial measure for management and investors in assessing the Company’s ability to pursue business opportunities and investments and to service its debt. Free Cash Flow is not a measure of our liquidity under GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to cash flows from operating activities.

Management and Ingersoll Rand’s board of directors regularly use these measures as tools in evaluating the Company’s operating and financial performance and in establishing discretionary annual compensation. Such measures are provided in addition to, and should not be considered to be a substitute for, or superior to, the comparable measures under GAAP. In addition, Ingersoll Rand believes that Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Diluted EPS, Incrementals/Decrementals and Free Cash Flow are frequently used by investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of issuers, many of which also present Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Diluted EPS, and Free Cash Flow when reporting their results in an effort to facilitate an understanding of their operating and financial results and liquidity.

Adjusted EBITDA, Supplemental Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income, Supplemental Further Adjusted Net Income, Supplemental Further Adjusted Diluted EPS, Adjusted Diluted EPS, Incrementals/Decrementals, Free Cash Flow and Supplemental Revenue should not be considered as alternatives to net income, diluted earnings per share or any other performance measure derived in accordance with GAAP, or as alternatives to cash flow from operating activities as a measure of our liquidity. Adjusted EBITDA, Supplemental Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income, Supplemental Further Adjusted Net Income, Supplemental Further Adjusted Diluted EPS, Adjusted Diluted EPS, Free Cash Flow and Supplemental Revenue have limitations as analytical tools, and you should not consider such measures either in isolation or as substitutes for analyzing Ingersoll Rand’s results as reported under GAAP.

Reconciliations of Adjusted EBITDA, Supplemental Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income, Supplemental Further Adjusted Net Income, Supplemental Further Adjusted Diluted EPS, Adjusted Diluted EPS, Free Cash Flow and Supplemental Revenue to their most comparable U.S. GAAP financial metrics for historical periods are presented in the tables below.
