Exhibit 99.1

 

EnerSys Reports Second Quarter Fiscal Year 2006 Results

 

READING, PA, November 15, 2005/PRNewswire-FirstCall/ — EnerSys (NYSE:ENS), the world’s largest manufacturer, marketer and distributor of industrial batteries, announced net earnings for its second fiscal quarter of 2006 ending October 2, 2005 of $2.5 million, or $0.05 per share basic and diluted, compared to net earnings of $6.4 million, or $0.15 per share basic and diluted, in the prior year’s second fiscal quarter.

 

Pro forma net earnings for the Company’s second fiscal quarter of 2006 were $6.6 million or $0.14 per share basic and diluted, compared to pro forma net earnings of $10.8 million, or $0.23 per share basic and diluted in the prior year. Please refer to the paragraph below under the heading “Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” for a discussion of the Company’s use of pro forma financial information. The pro forma adjustment for the second fiscal quarter of 2006 relates to the elimination of a restructuring charge, while the pro forma adjustments for the prior year relate to the effect of the IPO and the elimination of the IPO special charge.

 

Net sales for the second fiscal quarter of 2006 were $304.4 million compared to $261.3 million in the Company’s prior year second fiscal quarter, or an increase of 16.5%. The results reflect the inclusion of the acquisition of FIAMM SpA’s motive power business that occurred in June of the first fiscal quarter of 2006. This acquisition contributed sales of approximately $17 million in the second fiscal quarter or approximately 6 percentage points of the increase compared to the prior year. Excluding the favorable impact of foreign currency translation (primarily from the Euro), the second fiscal quarter of 2006 net sales increased approximately 16% over the prior year’s second fiscal quarter.

 

EnerSys’ second fiscal quarter of 2006 operating results for its reporting segments, compared to the second fiscal quarter of 2005 are as follows (in millions):

 

     Fiscal quarter ended

     $ 304.4    $ 9.9    $ 261.3    $ 19.8

 

The segment operating results shown above present operating earnings instead of net earnings, since the Company does not allocate non-operating income and expense items to its reporting business segments.

 

Net earnings for the first six months of fiscal 2006 were $11.3 million or $0.24 per share basic and diluted, compared to net earnings of $15.4 million and net earnings available to common shareholders of $7.3 million or $0.27 per share basic and diluted in the prior year. Pro forma net earnings for the first six months of fiscal 2006 were $15.4 million or $0.33 per share basic and diluted, compared to pro forma net earnings of $21.3 or $0.46 per share basic and diluted in the prior year. Please refer to the paragraph below under the heading “Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” for a discussion of the Company’s use of pro forma financial information. The pro forma adjustment for the first six months of fiscal 2006 relates to the elimination of the second quarter restructuring charge, while the pro forma adjustments for the prior year relate to the effect of the IPO, elimination of a special charge and elimination of the Company’s non-cash Series A convertible stock dividend.

 

Net sales for the first six months of fiscal 2006 were $608.3 million compared to $524.6 million in the prior year, or an increase of 16%. The fiscal 2006 results reflect the inclusion of approximately $24 million of sales attributable to the acquisition of FIAMM SpA’s motive power business, or approximately 5 percentage points of the increase compared to the prior year. Excluding the favorable impact of foreign currency translation (primarily the Euro), the first six months of fiscal 2006 net sales increased approximately 15% over the prior year.

“For our second fiscal quarter of 2006 we continued to experience increased demand for our products globally and we believe that we continue to increase our leading market share position,” stated John D. Craig, Chairman, President, and Chief Executive Officer of the Company. “We are pleased with the ongoing progress with our first quarter FIAMM acquisition and future growth and earnings prospects from our recently announced GAZ acquisition. At the same time, we continue to address the impact of high commodity costs through pricing recovery actions and continuing to reduce our costs. Our second fiscal quarter pro forma earnings, after excluding the restructuring charge, were in line with our guidance.” Further, he added, “We anticipate that for our third fiscal quarter of 2006, our pro forma net earnings per share will be between $0.17 and $0.21, which excludes approximately $0.02 per share for an expected restructuring charge associated with the integration and synergy optimization from the GAZ acquisition.” Please refer to the paragraph below under the heading “Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” for a discussion of the Company’s use of pro forma financial information.

 

This press release contains forward-looking statements (within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995), that are based on management’s current expectations and are subject to uncertainties and changes in circumstances. The Company’s actual results may differ materially from the forward-looking statements for a number of reasons. For a list of the factors, which could affect the Company’s results, including the earnings estimates, see “Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” including “Forward-Looking Statements,” set forth in the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the second fiscal quarter ended October 2, 2005, which was filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.

 

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

 

This press release contains financial information determined by methods other than in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”). EnerSys’ management uses non-GAAP measures in their analysis of the Company’s performance. These measures, as used by EnerSys, adjust net earnings determined in accordance with GAAP to reflect changes in financial results associated with the IPO and the Company’s restructuring initiatives. Management believes presentations of financial measures reflecting these adjustments provide important supplemental measurement information in evaluating the operating results of the Company as distinct from results that include items that are not indicative of ongoing operating results; in particular, the charges that the Company incurs as a result of restructuring activities associated with our acquisitions. Because these charges are incurred as a result of an acquisition, they are not a valid measure of the performance of our underlying business and accordingly, they are non-recurring in nature. These disclosures have limitations as an analytical tool, should not be viewed as a substitute for net earnings determined in accordance with GAAP, should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of the Company’s results as reported under GAAP, nor are they necessarily comparable to non-GAAP performance measures that may be presented by other companies. Management believes that this pro forma supplemental information will be helpful in understanding the Company’s ongoing operating results. This supplemental presentation should not be construed as an inference that the Company’s future results will be unaffected by similar adjustments to net earnings determined in accordance with GAAP.
