Textron Reports First Quarter 2019 Results
· EPS of $0.76, up 5.6% year over year
· Segment profit of $294 million, up 5.4% from prior year
· Operating margin of 9.5%, up from 8.5% a year ago
· $202 million returned to shareholders through share repurchases
Providence, Rhode Island — April 17, 2019 — Textron Inc. (NYSE: TXT) today reported first quarter 2019 net income of $0.76 per share, compared to $0.72 per share in the first quarter of 2018.
“Our results in the quarter were driven by growth and performance at Aviation and continued strong execution at Bell, which resulted in significant margin improvements at those segments,” said Textron Chairman and CEO Scott C. Donnelly.
Cash Flow
Net cash used by operating activities of the manufacturing group for the first quarter totaled $196 million, compared to $53 million of net cash used last year. Manufacturing cash flow before pension contributions, a non-GAAP measure that is defined and reconciled to GAAP in an attachment to this release, reflected a use of cash of $291 million compared to a use of cash of $158 million last year.
In the quarter, Textron returned $202 million to shareholders through share repurchases.
Outlook
Textron confirmed its 2019 earnings per share from continuing operations guidance of $3.55 to $3.75 and its expectation for cash flow from continuing operations of the manufacturing group before pension contributions of $700 to $800 million with planned pension contributions of about $50 million.
Donnelly continued, “The company remains on track for a strong 2019 as we continue our focus on operational improvement and earnings growth.”
First Quarter Segment Results
Textron Aviation
Revenues at Textron Aviation of $1.1 billion were up 12%, primarily due to higher volume and mix across the jet and commercial turboprop product lines.
Textron Aviation delivered 44 jets, up from 36 last year, and 44 commercial turboprops, up from 29 last year.
Segment profit was $106 million in the first quarter, up from $72 million a year ago, due to the higher volume and favorable performance.
Textron Aviation backlog at the end of the first quarter was $2.0 billion, up $204 million from year-end.
Bell
Bell revenues were $739 million, down 2% from last year, primarily on lower commercial volume.
Bell delivered 30 commercial helicopters in the quarter, down from 46 last year.
Segment profit of $104 million was up $17 million, primarily due to favorable performance.
Bell backlog at the end of the first quarter was $6.3 billion, up $459 million from year-end.
Textron Systems
Revenues at Textron Systems were $307 million, down from $387 million last year, reflecting lower TAPV deliveries at Textron Marine & Land Systems and lower Unmanned Systems volume.
Segment profit was down $22 million from last year’s first quarter, reflecting lower volume and lower net favorable program adjustments.
Textron Systems’ backlog at the end of the first quarter was $1.4 billion, down $62 million from year-end.
Industrial
Industrial revenues of $912 million decreased $219 million, largely related to the impact from the disposition of our Tools & Test product line and lower volume.
Segment profit was down $14 million from the first quarter of 2018, largely due to the impact from the product line disposition and lower volume, partially offset by favorable performance primarily related to the Specialized Vehicles product line.
Finance
Finance segment revenues were up $1 million, and profit was flat with last year’s first quarter.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
(Dollars in millions, except per share amounts)
We supplement the reporting of our financial information determined under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) with certain non-GAAP financial measures. These non-GAAP financial measures exclude certain significant items that may not be indicative of, or are unrelated to, results from our ongoing business operations. We believe that these non-GAAP measures may be useful for period-over-period comparisons of underlying business trends and our ongoing business performance, however, they should be used in conjunction with GAAP measures. Our non-GAAP measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the related GAAP measures, and other companies may define similarly named measures differently. We encourage investors to review our financial statements and publicly-filed reports in the entirety and not to rely on any single financial measure. We utilize the following definition for the non-GAAP financial measure included in this release:
Manufacturing cash flow before pension contributions
Manufacturing cash flow before pension contributions adjusts net cash from operating activities (GAAP) for the following:
· Deducts capital expenditures and includes proceeds from the sale of property, plant and equipment to arrive at the net capital investment required to support ongoing manufacturing operations;
· Excludes dividends received from Textron Financial Corporation (TFC) and capital contributions to TFC provided under the Support Agreement and debt agreements as these cash flows are not representative of manufacturing operations;
· Adds back pension contributions as we consider our pension obligations to be debt-like liabilities. Additionally, these contributions can fluctuate significantly from period to period and we believe that they are not representative of cash used by our manufacturing operations during the period.
· Excludes taxes paid related to the gain realized in 2018 on the Tools and Test business disposition. We have made this adjustment to the non-GAAP measure because we believe this use of cash is not representative of cash used by our manufacturing operations.
While we believe this measure provides a focus on cash generated from manufacturing operations, before pension contributions, and may be used as an additional relevant measure of liquidity, it does not necessarily provide the amount available for discretionary expenditures since we have certain non-discretionary obligations that are not deducted from the measure.
