Domestic sales increased 1.1% to $248.2 million for the fourth quarter of 2018 from $245.4 million for the fourth quarter of 2017.

Net sales for 2018 were $1.172 billion compared to $1.185 billion for 2017, a 1.1% decrease. Domestic sales decreased 1.8% to $915.8 million for 2018 from $932.3 million for 2017. International sales were $255.8 million for 2018 compared to $252.4 million for 2017, an increase of 1.3%.
Losses for 2018 were $60.4 million, for a loss of $2.64 per diluted share, which includes the charges described below, compared to earnings of $37.8 million, or $1.63 per diluted share, for 2017, which includes the aforementioned income tax benefit.
In the fourth quarter of 2018, the Company recorded charges totaling $90.6 million resulting from a write-off related to the Hazlehurst wood pellet plant, an inventory valuation adjustment, the exit of a subsidiary business in Germany and an impairment of goodwill. The following financial information for the fourth quarters and full years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017 excludes all of the impact of wood pellet plant activity, as well as the other fourth quarter 2018 charges, on the Company’s results during those periods:
Net sales for the fourth quarter of 2018 were $317.0 million compared to $306.8 million for the fourth quarter of 2017, a 3.3% increase. Domestic sales increased 3.5% to $248.2 million for the fourth quarter of 2018 from $239.8 million for the same period of 2017.

Net income for the fourth quarter of 2018 was $14.0 million or $0.61 per diluted share, compared to net income of $13.2 million or $0.57 per diluted share for the same period of 2017, an increase in earnings per share of 7.0%.
Net sales for 2018 were $1.246 billion compared to $1.177 billion for 2017, an increase of 5.9%. Domestic sales increased 7.2% to $990.6 million for 2018 from $924.3 million for 2017.
Net income for 2018 was $67.3 million or $2.92 per diluted share, compared to net income of $57.7 million or $2.49 per diluted share for the same period in 2017, an increase in earnings per share of 17.4%.
Commenting on the quarterly and full year results, Richard J. Dorris, Interim Chief Executive Officer, stated, “We are pleased with the 17.4% growth in adjusted earnings for the full year. Our core businesses remain strong and we continue to gain positive momentum. While results in our Infrastructure Group for the fourth quarter and year reflect our decision to exit the wood pellet plant business and a decrease in international sales, we are optimistic about opportunities for this segment in the coming year. We saw a good mix of activity across commercial and private construction driving performance in our Aggregate and Mining Group both domestically and internationally for the year, while 2018 sales growth in our Energy Group was driven by improved domestic sales. While we remain focused on execution in our individual segments, we continue to make progress in our strategic sourcing initiative and anticipate it will yield positive results in our procurement operations once it is completed in the second quarter. We are also working to identify further manufacturing cost optimization opportunities and look forward to providing more details as we move forward with these projects.”

Mr. Dorris continued, “During the past year, Astec’s Board and management team have taken decisive steps to improve the Company’s financial performance and ensure capital is directed to the areas that we believe will drive the greatest value for all shareholders. We made decisions to exit the wood pellet plant business, recording a write-off of our Hazlehurst plant in the fourth quarter, and discontinued operations at our underperforming subsidiary in Germany. While these actions resulted in one-time charges being recognized in the fourth quarter, we are confident these actions have strengthened our business for the future. We remain focused on executing our strategy and growing our leadership position in the manufacturing of equipment for the infrastructure, aggregate, mining and energy industries.”
The Company’s backlog at December 31, 2018 was $345.0 million compared to $411.5 million at December 31, 2017, a decrease of $66.5 million or 16.2%. Domestic backlog decreased 22.4% to $260.7 million at December 31, 2018 from $335.9 million at December 31, 2017, reflecting a $60.2 million reduction in pellet plant related backlog. International backlog increased 11.5% to $84.2 million at December 31, 2018 from $75.6 million at December 31, 2017. Excluding pellet plant backlogs, the Company’s December 31, 2018 backlog decreased $6.3 million, or 1.5%, compared to December 31, 2017.
Consolidated financial information for the fourth quarter and year ended December 31, 2018 and additional information related to segment revenues and profits are attached as addenda to this press release.

GLOSSARY
In its earnings release, Astec refers to various GAAP (U.S. generally accepted accounting principles) and non-GAAP financial measures.  These non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures being disclosed by other companies.  Non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to, and not in lieu of, GAAP financial measures.  Nonetheless, this non-GAAP information can be useful in understanding the Company’s operating results and the performance of its core businesses.

The amounts described below are unaudited, reported in thousands of U.S. dollars (except share data), and as of or for the periods indicated.
