Timken sales decline 7.5 percent

The Timken Company reported second-quarter 2016 sales of $674 million, 7.5 percent lower than $728 million in the same period a year ago.


Excluding an unfavorable currency impact of 1.7 percent, sales were down 5.8 percent, due to weakness across most end markets, partially offset by growth in automotive and the net benefit of acquisitions.

Net income was $44.9 million, or 57 cents per diluted share, versus $36.7 million, or 43 cents, for the same period a year ago. The year-over-year increase in net income reflects lower material and manufacturing costs, SG&A expenses and pension settlement charges, and income related to distributions under the U.S. Continued Dumping Subsidy Offset Act (CDSOA).

Mobile Industries reported second-quarter sales of $367.8 million, 5.4 percent lower than the same period a year ago. Excluding unfavorable currency of 1.5 percent, sales were down 3.9 percent compared with the prior year, as growth in automotive and the net benefit of acquisitions were offset by declines in other end markets.

Process Industries sales of $305.8 million for the second quarter declined 9.9 percent from the same period a year ago. Excluding unfavorable currency of 1.9 percent, sales were down 8 percent, driven by weaker demand in the industrial aftermarket and heavy industries, partially offset by higher military marine revenue and the benefit of acquisitions.
