Altra Reports Third-Quarter 2015 Results

Delivered Strong Operating Cash Flow During the Quarter

Returned $6.3 Million to Shareholders Through Stock Repurchases

BRAINTREE, Mass., October 23, 2015 - Altra Industrial Motion Corp. (Nasdaq:AIMC), a global manufacturer and marketer of electromechanical power transmission and motion control products, today announced unaudited financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2015.

Financial Highlights

• Third-quarter 2015 net sales were $183.1 million, compared with $202.5 million in the third quarter of 2014, a decrease of 9.6%. The decrease in net sales was driven by an unfavorable impact from foreign exchange of 5.7% and an organic sales decline of 3.9%.

• Third-quarter net income was $10.2 million, or $0.39 per diluted share, compared with $6.9 million, or $0.25 per diluted share, in the third quarter of 2014. Non-GAAP net income in Q3 2015 was $11.3 million, or $0.43 per diluted share, compared with $12.2 million, or $0.45 per diluted share, a year ago.*

• Strong cash flow from operations led to free cash flows of $27.7 million during the quarter.

• The Company accelerated its purchases of Altra stock, purchasing $6.3 million, or approximately 254,000 shares, during the third quarter under its $50 million repurchase program. Since the program's inception in May 2014, the Company has purchased approximately $31.9 million, or 1.1 million shares, under the program.

• Altra amended its credit facility on October 22, 2015. The amendment resulted in a two-year extension of the term, the elimination of the existing term loans, more favorable pricing and an increase in total borrowing capacity under the new, all revolver, $350 million facility.

• During the third quarter, the Company realigned its three business segments as part of its business simplification efforts. This new structure is better aligned across Altra’s end markets and will better facilitate the Company’s strategic initiatives for growth, procurement and facility consolidation.

• Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Net Income*:

Management Comments

“Altra again delivered strong results during the third quarter on excellent execution of our cost-reduction and restructuring initiatives combined with lower material costs," said Carl Christenson, Altra's Chairman and CEO. "Despite a nearly 10% decline in revenues we increased non-GAAP gross profit margin by 80 basis points year over year. We were also very pleased with our cash generation during the quarter bringing year to date free cash flow to over $44 million. In addition, we amended and extended our credit facility, which provides us with increased liquidity, more flexibility and better pricing as we continue to manage all cost areas efficiently for the benefit of shareholders.”*

Business Outlook

“We have seen a broad based decline in global industrial demand through the first nine months of 2015. Furthermore we expect the challenges in our agriculture, oil & gas, mining and metals end markets to continue for some time, as many OEMs have just begun to implement restructuring and cost reduction programs. Additionally, we have seen end markets that were previously unaffected begin to soften,” Christenson said. “From a geographic perspective, sentiment in Europe appears stable, while the outlook for North American industrial activity deteriorated further and the outlook in Asia remains uncertain."

“As these conditions persist, we are managing the business to the level of market demand. We expect ongoing benefits from the restructuring and cost reduction initiatives we began earlier this year. These initiatives include the Bauer profit improvement plan, which has gained significant traction at the bottom line. We are excited about the progress we have made and the additional opportunities we have to improve margins under our business simplification plan.”

As a result of weakness in certain of the company’s end markets, Altra is lowering its previous annual revenue guidance and expects annual sales in the range of $745 to $755 million. The Company is also narrowing its non-GAAP diluted EPS guidance to the range of $1.60 to $1.68 for 2015. This guidance includes savings from the restructuring actions taken to date. The Company now expects its tax rate for the full year to be approximately 29% to 31% before discrete items. Altra continues to expect capital expenditures in the range of $24 to $26 million and now expects depreciation and amortization in the range of $30 to $31 million.*

* Discussion of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

As used in this release and the accompanying slides posted on the Company's website, non-GAAP diluted earnings per share, non-GAAP income from operations and non-GAAP net income are each calculated using either net income or income from operations that excludes acquisition related costs, restructuring costs, and other income or charges that management does not consider to be directly related to the Company's core operating performance. Non-GAAP gross profit calculated using gross profit that excludes income or charges that management does not consider to be directly related to the Company's core operating performance. Non-GAAP diluted earnings per share is calculated by dividing non-GAAP net income by GAAP weighted average shares outstanding (diluted). Non-

GAAP free cash flow is calculated by deducting purchases of property, plant and equipment from net cash flows from operating activities. Non-GAAP operating working capital is calculated by deducting accounts payable from net trade receivables plus inventories.

Altra believes that the presentation of non-GAAP net income, non-GAAP income from operations, non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP diluted earnings per share, non-GAAP free cash flow and non-GAAP operating working capital provides important supplemental information to management and investors regarding financial and business trends relating to the Company's financial condition and results of operations.

Forward-Looking Statements

All statements, other than statements of historical fact included in this release are forward-looking statements, as that term is defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements include, but are not limited to, any statement that may predict, forecast, indicate or imply future results, performance, achievements or events. Forward-looking statements can generally be identified by phrases such as "believes," "expects," "potential," "continues," "may," "should," "seeks," "predicts," "anticipates," "intends," "projects," "estimates," "plans," "could," "designed", "should be," and other similar expressions that denote expectations of future or conditional events rather than statements of fact. Forward-looking statements also may relate to strategies, plans and objectives for, and potential results of, future operations, financial results, financial condition, business prospects, growth strategy and liquidity, and are based upon financial data, market assumptions and management's current business plans and beliefs or current estimates of future results or trends available only as of the time the statements are made, which may become out of date or incomplete. Forward-looking statements are inherently uncertain, and investors must recognize that events could differ significantly from our expectations. These statements include, but may not be limited to, those relating to the Company's progress on corporate initiatives, the Company's views and assessment of economic conditions, foreign currency trends, end market conditions and industrial demand, the Company’s progress on executing its acquisition and organic growth strategies and new product development, the Company’s progress on implementing profit improvement initiatives, the Company's progress and future plans on implementing and pursuing consolidation and cost reduction activities, the impact and timing of the Company's Business Simplification Plan and other potential cost management and restructuring activities on earnings, margins and shareholder value, the Company's unaudited 2015 financial information, and the Company's guidance for full year 2015.

Discussion of Non-GAAP Measures * As used in this release and the accompanying slides posted on the Company's website, non-GAAP diluted earnings per share, non-GAAP income from operations and non-GAAP net income are each calculated using either net income or income from operations that excludes acquisition related costs, restructuring costs, and other income or charges that management does not consider to be directly related to the Company's core operating performance. Non-GAAP gross profit calculated using gross profit that excludes income or charges that management does not consider to be directly related to the Company's core operating performance. Non-GAAP diluted earnings per share is calculated by dividing non-GAAP net income by GAAP weighted average shares outstanding (diluted). Non-GAAP free cash flow is calculated by deducting purchases of property, plant and equipment from net cash flows from operating activities. Non-GAAP operating working capital is calculated by deducting accounts payable from net trade receivables plus inventories. Altra believes that the presentation of non-GAAP net income, non-GAAP income from operations, non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP diluted earnings per share, non-GAAP free cash flow and non-GAAP operating working capital provides important supplemental information to management and investors regarding financial and business trends relating to the Company's financial condition and results of operations. 12
