Management Commentary
“This was another quarter of strong performance for Kadant,” said Jonathan W. Painter, president and chief executive officer of
Kadant Inc. “We achieved revenue growth across all of our three largest product lines. Revenue increases in our Doctoring,
Cleaning, & Filtration and Fluid-Handling product lines resulted from organic growth, while our Stock-Preparation product
line’s revenue growth was driven by our April 2016 acquisition of PAAL. PAAL is performing well and we are working on integrating
the company into our global operating platform to produce longer-term revenue and cost synergies. This combination of acquisition
and organic growth is fundamental to our strategic growth plan and is representative of how we see our business developing over the
next several years.
“Our third quarter gross margin of 45.6 percent represented a strong result, given that parts and consumables accounted for just
58 percent of total third quarter revenue. We achieved very good profitability levels in the third quarter with operating
income and adjusted EBITDA margins of 12 percent and 15 percent, respectively, and produced excellent cash flows from operations of
$16 million.
“Quarterly bookings continued to be constrained due to declines in our Stock-Preparation and Fluid-Handling product lines,
although our Doctoring, Cleaning, & Filtration and Wood Processing product lines had solid bookings growth. Increased bookings
in Europe due to the contribution from PAAL were offset by weaker bookings in most regions of the world as customers have become
more cautious, which has led to reduced spending. Looking ahead, we are cautiously optimistic that we will see a sequential
improvement in bookings in the fourth quarter,” Mr. Painter noted.
Third Quarter 2016 Results
Revenue increased 15 percent compared to the third quarter of 2015 to $105.5 million, including a $13.6 million increase from an
acquisition and a $1.0 million decrease from the unfavorable effect of foreign currency translation. Gross margin was 45.6 percent.
Net income was $9.2 million, or $0.82 per diluted share, compared to $8.6 million, or $0.78 per diluted share, in the third quarter
of 2015, an increase of six percent and five percent, respectively. Adjusted diluted EPS increased four percent to $0.81 in the
third quarter of 2016, compared to $0.78 in the third quarter of 2015. Adjusted diluted EPS in the third quarter of 2016 excludes a
$0.02 benefit from a discrete tax item and $0.01 of acquisition costs. Adjusted EBITDA increased six percent to $16.2 million,
which excluded acquisition costs of $0.2 million, compared to $15.3 million in the same quarter of 2015. Operating income was $12.6
million compared to $12.7 million in the third quarter of 2015. Adjusted operating income was $12.7 million in both the third
quarters of 2016 and 2015. Bookings were $94.8 million compared to $98.8 million in the third quarter of 2015, down four percent,
including the net effect of a $13.0 million increase from an acquisition and a $1.0 million decrease from the unfavorable effect of
foreign currency translation.
Nine Month 2016 Results
Revenue increased 11 percent compared to the first nine months of 2015 to $313.9 million, including a $28.8 million increase from
an acquisition and a $6.7 million decrease from the unfavorable effect of foreign currency translation. Gross margin was 45.3
percent. Net income was $24.3 million, or $2.19 per diluted share, each up one percent, compared to $24 million, or $2.16 per
diluted share, in the first nine months of 2015. Adjusted diluted EPS increased 10 percent to $2.41 in the first nine months of
2016, compared to $2.19 in the first nine months of 2015. Adjusted diluted EPS in 2016 excludes $0.15 of acquisition costs, $0.12
of expense related to acquired profit in inventory and backlog, a $0.02 benefit from a discrete tax item and a $0.02 gain on the
sale of assets. Adjusted diluted EPS in the 2015 period excludes $0.02 of restructuring costs and $0.01 of expense related to
acquired profit in inventory and backlog. Adjusted EBITDA was $47.8 million, eight percent higher than $44.3 million reported in
the comparable period of 2015. Adjusted EBITDA in the first nine months of 2016 excluded $1.9 million of costs related to acquired
inventory and backlog, $1.8 million of acquisition costs, and a $0.3 million gain on the sale of assets. Adjusted EBITDA for the
first nine months of 2015 excluded $0.3 million of restructuring costs and $0.2 million of expense related to acquired profit in
inventory and backlog. Operating income was $34.9 million in 2016, compared to $35.7 million in 2015. Adjusted operating income was
$38.3 million in 2016, compared to $36.2 million in 2015. Year-to-date cash flow from operations increased 24 percent to $34.7
million, compared to $28.1 million last year. Bookings were $289.9 million, down four percent, including the net effect of a $27.2
million increase from an acquisition and a $6.8 million decrease from the unfavorable effect of foreign currency translation.
Summary and Outlook
“Our results for the first nine months of 2016 have positioned Kadant for another strong year in 2016 and provide the resources to
support a range of organic growth initiatives and potential acquisitions that will drive long-term growth, while sustaining our
ability to deploy capital for dividends and share repurchases,” Mr. Painter continued.
“Based on our strong performance in the third quarter and current visibility for the remainder of the year, we are raising our
GAAP diluted EPS guidance for 2016 to $2.76 to $2.82, revised from our previous guidance of $2.75 to $2.81. Our revised 2016
guidance includes $0.15 of acquisition costs, $0.12 of expense related to acquired profit in inventory and backlog, a $0.02 benefit
from a discrete tax item, and a $0.02 gain on the sale of assets. Excluding the acquisition-related costs and other income, our
adjusted diluted EPS guidance for 2016 is $2.99 to $3.05. For 2016, we expect revenue of $412 to $416 million, revised from our
previous guidance of $415 to $421 million. For the fourth quarter of 2016, we expect to achieve GAAP diluted EPS of $0.57 to $0.63
on revenue of $98 to $102 million.”

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In addition to the financial measures prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), we use certain
non-GAAP financial measures, including increases or decreases in revenue excluding the effect of acquisitions and foreign currency
translation, adjusted operating income, adjusted net income, adjusted diluted EPS, adjusted earnings before interest, taxes,
depreciation, and amortization (adjusted EBITDA) and adjusted EBITDA margin.
We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures, when taken together with the corresponding GAAP financial measures, provide
meaningful supplemental information regarding our performance by excluding certain items that may not be indicative of our core
business, operating results, or future outlook. We believe that the inclusion of such measures helps investors to gain an
understanding of our underlying operating performance and future prospects, consistent with how management measures and forecasts
our performance, especially when comparing such results to previous periods or forecasts and to the performance of our competitors.
Such measures are also used by us in our financial and operating decision-making and for compensation purposes. We also believe
this information is responsive to investors' requests and gives them an additional measure of our performance.
The non-GAAP financial measures included in this press release are not meant to be considered superior to or a substitute for
the results of operations prepared in accordance with GAAP. In addition, the non-GAAP financial measures included in this press
release have limitations associated with their use as compared to the most directly comparable GAAP measures, in that they may be
different from, and therefore not comparable to, similar measures used by other companies.
Revenue included $13.6 million and $28.8 million from an acquisition in the third quarter and first nine months of 2016,
respectively. Revenue also included a $1.0 million and $6.7 million unfavorable foreign currency translation effect in the third
quarter and first nine months of 2016, respectively. We present increases or decreases in revenue excluding the effect of
acquisitions and foreign currency translation to provide investors insight into underlying revenue trends.
Adjusted operating income, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, adjusted net income, and adjusted diluted EPS exclude
acquisition costs, restructuring costs, other income, and expense related to acquired inventory and backlog. These items are
excluded as they are not indicative of our core operating results and are not comparable to other periods, which have differing
levels of incremental costs or income or none at all.
Adjusted operating income, adjusted EBITDA, and adjusted EBITDA margin exclude:
- Pre-tax gain on the sale of assets of $0.3 million in the first nine months of 2016. Pre-tax
restructuring costs of $0.3 million in the first nine months of 2015.
- Pre-tax acquisition costs of $0.2 million in the third quarter of 2016 and $1.8 million in the first
nine months of 2016.
- Pre-tax expense related to acquired profit in inventory and backlog of $1.9 million in the first nine
months of 2016 and $0.2 million in the first nine months of 2015.
Adjusted net income and adjusted diluted EPS exclude:
- After-tax gain on the sale of assets of $0.2 million ($0.3 million net of tax of $0.1 million) in the
first nine months of 2016 and after-tax restructuring costs of $0.2 million ($0.3 million net of tax of $0.1 million) in the
first nine months of 2015.
- After-tax acquisition costs of $0.1 million ($0.2 million net of tax of $0.1 million) in the third
quarter of 2016 and $1.6 million ($1.8 million net of tax of $0.2 million) in the first nine months of 2016.
- After-tax expense related to acquired profit in inventory and backlog of $1.4 million ($1.9 million
net of tax of $0.5 million) in the first nine months of 2016 and $0.1 million ($0.2 million net of tax of $0.1 million) in the
first nine months of 2015.
- A benefit from discrete tax items of $0.3 million in the third quarter and first nine months of 2016.
The benefit from discrete tax items was primarily due to the reversal of valuation allowances on certain deferred tax assets in
the U.S.
Reconciliations of the non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are set forth in this
press release.
