Moog Inc. (MOG.A) (MOG.B) announced today third quarter
earnings of $29.2 million, or $.64 a share, an increase of 73% over
last year’s $.37 per share. Sales in the quarter of $537 million were
up 21% from last year’s $445 million.
Aircraft sales in the quarter of $191 million were up 18%, or $30
million, from a year ago. Of the increase, $25 million came from the
recent acquisition of the GE Actuation business in the U.K. Military
aircraft sales at $116 million were up 12%, or $13 million. Almost
all of that increase came from the acquisition. Sales on the F-35
program were down by $3 million, the net impact of the development
program winding down and the ramp-up of production. Revenues were up
on the V-22 tilt rotor, the Blackhawk helicopter, and in the military
aftermarket.
Commercial Aircraft sales of $66 million were up $19 million, or 39%.
The acquisition provided most of that increase. Sales were up at
Boeing and Airbus. Sales on business jets were even with last year.
Commercial aftermarket revenue, at $20 million, was down slightly in
the quarter. Our new navigation aids product line had sales of $9.3
million, down 14% from last year. The reduction had to do with delays
in the award of certain military programs.
Space and Defense sales of $87 million were up 35% in the quarter.
Sales were up on controls for satellites, on launch vehicles and
tactical missiles. Sales in defense controls surged because of a
large order for Driver’s Vision Enhancer systems. Revenue in security
and surveillance and naval applications was about the same as last
year.
The Industrial segment is recovering from the global industrial
recession. Revenue was up 26% to $129 million. Sales in the wind
energy business of $29 million were up 54% from last year due to the
LTi REEnergy acquisition. Sales in the capital equipment market of
$43 million were up 38% on increases in sales of controls for
plastics making machinery, metal forming equipment and specialized
test equipment. Sales of motion bases for flight training simulators
were at the same level as last year and sales of controls for
conventional power generation was the only category that did not see
sales growth.
The Components segment had sales in the quarter of $96 million, up 6%
from a year ago. The growth occurred in the aircraft and industrial
products. The Company had very strong sales in the quarter of fiber
optic controls used on the Eurofighter aircraft and broad-based
strength in components for commercial avionics. Industrial sales
growth came in slip rings for wind turbines and in a general
improvement in the automation market. Component sales in space and
defense held even in the quarter. Sales of marine products were down
from the very high levels of last year’s third quarter, but improved
from the most recent quarter.
The Company’s Medical Devices segment had much improved sales at $33
million, up 29% from a year ago. The sales increase was across the
board in pumps, administration sets and sensors and handpieces.
The current backlog of $1.148 billion was up 16% from the same
quarter a year ago.
The Company confirmed its earnings guidance for the year ending
September 2010. Sales are now forecast at $2.089 billion, with net
earnings of $107 million and earnings per share of $2.35.
The Company also provided its initial projection for fiscal 2011.
Sales are forecasted to increase by 7% to $2.235 billion with net
earnings of $124 million, and earnings per share of $2.70, a 15%
increase.
"Our recession is over," said R.T. Brady, Chairman and CEO. "Sales
are strong and continue to grow. Our major aircraft development
programs are moving into production. Space and Defense and the
Components Group are having a very strong year. Sales are improving
in both Industrial and Medical. We’re optimistic that 2011 will put
us back on our growth trajectory."

which may affect our earnings and cash flow;
v. the possibility that the demand for our products may be reduced if
we are unable to adapt to technological change;
vi. intense competition, which may require us to lower prices or offer
more favorable terms of sale;
vii. our indebtedness, which could limit our operational and financial
flexibility;
viii. the possibility that new product and research and development
efforts may not be successful, which could reduce our sales and
profits;
ix. increased cash funding requirements for pension plans, which could
occur in future years based on assumptions used for our defined
benefit pension plans, including returns on plan assets and
discount rates;
x. a write-off of all or part of our goodwill or intangible assets,

and cause us to violate covenants in our bank agreements;

debarment from future contracts in the event we do not comply with
regulations relating to defense industry contracting;
xii. the potential for cost overruns on development jobs and fixed-price
contracts and the risk that actual results may differ from
estimates used in contract accounting;
xiii. the possibility that our subcontractors may fail to perform their

to sell our products outside the United States;

medical devices business that could lead to product recalls,
withdrawal from certain markets, delays in the introduction of new
products, sanctions, litigation, declining sales or actions of
regulatory bodies and government authorities;
xxi. the impact of product liability claims related to our products used
in applications where failure can result in significant property
damage, injury or death and in damage to our reputation;
xxii. changes in medical reimbursement rates of insurers to medical
service providers, which could affect sales of our medical
products;
xxiii. the possibility that litigation results may be unfavorable to us;
xxiv. our ability to adequately enforce our intellectual property rights
and the possibility that third parties will assert intellectual
property rights that prevent or restrict our ability to manufacture,
sell, distribute or use our products or technology;
xxv. foreign currency fluctuations in those countries in which we do
business and other risks associated with international operations;
xxvi. the cost of compliance with environmental laws;
xxvii. the risk of losses resulting from maintaining significant amounts
of cash and cash equivalents at financial institutions that are in
excess of amounts insured by governments;
xxviii. the inability to modify, to refinance or to utilize amounts
presently available to us under our credit facilities given
uncertainties in the credit markets;
xxix. our ability to meet the restrictive covenants under our credit
facilities since a breach of any of these covenants could result in
a default under our credit agreements; and
