Xylem Reports First Quarter 2022 Results

May 4, 2022
  • Continuing strong underlying demand: Organic orders growth of 14%, up 12% on a reported basis
  • Revenue of $1.3 billion, up 1% on a reported basis, up 4% organically
  • Earnings per share $0.45; adjusted earnings per share $0.47
  • Raising full-year organic revenue guidance to a range of 4% to 6%, and adjusted earnings per share to a range of $2.40 to $2.70

RYE BROOK, N.Y.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Xylem Inc. (NYSE: XYL), a leading global water technology company dedicated to solving the world’s most challenging water issues, today reported first quarter revenue of $1.3 billion, surpassing previous guidance in each business segment. Strong global demand drove record orders and backlog across the portfolio.

First quarter adjusted earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) margin decreased 290 basis points to 14.2 percent. Inflation, strategic investments, and the impact of chip shortages drove the margin decline, exceeding the benefits of price realization and productivity savings. Xylem generated net income of $82 million, or $0.45 per share, and adjusted net income of $84 million, or $0.47 per share, which excludes the impact of restructuring, realignment and special charges.

“The team delivered a strong result on very robust demand, despite a challenging operating environment,” said Patrick Decker, Xylem’s president and CEO. “That healthy demand drove record quarterly order intake in each segment of our business, and year-on-year backlog growth of 50 percent across the portfolio. As anticipated, we are seeing gradual improvement in chip supply, and revenues grew faster than our expectations, as did margin performance overall.”

“We expect global demand for our solutions to remain strong, and the team is doing an outstanding job realizing price from our position of market leadership. So, we are raising full-year guidance on revenue, and lifting the low end of our EPS range. Despite near-term headwinds from inflation and currency effects, our underlying momentum gives us even greater confidence we are on track to achieve our growth and strategic milestones we laid out at our Investor Day, last autumn.”

Outlook

Xylem now expects full-year 2022 organic revenue growth to be in the range of 4 to 6 percent, and 1 to 3 percent on a reported basis. This represents an increase from the Company’s previous full-year organic revenue guidance of 3 to 5 percent, and 1 to 3 percent on a reported basis. Reported revenue growth remains the same as our previous guidance due to the expected impact of foreign exchange effects.

Full-year 2022 adjusted EBITDA margin is expected to be in the range of 16.0 to 17.0 percent. This results in adjusted earnings per share of $2.40 to $2.70, narrowed from the previous range of $2.35 to $2.70. The increased guidance reflects strong demand, commercial momentum and price realization partially offset by foreign exchange headwinds.

Further 2022 planning assumptions are included in Xylem’s first quarter 2022 earnings materials posted at www.xylem.com/investors. Excluding revenue, Xylem provides guidance only on a non-GAAP basis due to the inherent difficulty in forecasting certain amounts that would be included in GAAP earnings, such as discrete tax items, without unreasonable effort.

Segment Leadership

The Company also announced that, aligned with its previous statements on growth strategy, it is unifying its Americas commercial team to reduce business complexity, and enhance customer experience. Effective immediately, Matthew Pine will lead combined commercial operations in the Americas, across all product and solution offerings, as well as leading both the Applied Water and Measurement & Control Solutions segments. Hayati Yarkadas, in addition to leading commercial operations in Europe and the Water Infrastructure segment, will now also lead the build-out of Xylem’s services offering, globally. Franz Cerwinka continues to lead commercial operations across Emerging Markets.

As a result of these changes, Colin Sabol will leave Xylem after a handover period during which he will focus on a smooth leadership transition.

“From Xylem’s beginnings, Colin has been a fundamental contributor to our growth story,” said Patrick Decker. “We are all profoundly grateful to have benefitted from his considerable talent, commitment and leadership.”

First Quarter Segment Results

Water Infrastructure

Xylem’s Water Infrastructure segment consists of its portfolio of businesses serving clean water delivery, wastewater transport and treatment, and dewatering.

  • First quarter 2022 revenue was $533 million, an 8 percent increase organically compared with first quarter 2021. This healthy growth was underpinned by sustained demand in our wastewater utility business in the US and Western Europe, and increasing demand for dewatering, particularly in Emerging Markets.
  • First quarter adjusted EBITDA margin was 15.9 percent, down 140 basis points from the prior year. Reported operating income for the segment was $74 million. Adjusted operating income for the segment, which excludes $1 million of restructuring and realignment, was $75 million, roughly flat versus the comparable period last year. Reported operating margin for the segment was 13.9 percent, flat versus the prior year, and adjusted operating margin was 14.1 percent, down 80 basis points versus the prior year. Strong price realization and productivity benefits were more than offset by inflation and investments.

Applied Water

Xylem’s Applied Water segment consists of its portfolio of businesses in industrial, commercial building, and residential applications.

  • First quarter 2022 Applied Water revenue was $425 million, a 10 percent increase organically year-over-year. The segment delivered strong backlog execution and price realization across all end markets, and growth in all regions, led by commercial strength in the United States.
  • First quarter adjusted EBITDA margin was 15.3 percent, down 380 basis points from the prior year. Reported operating income for the segment was $59 million and adjusted operating income, which excludes $1 million of restructuring and realignment costs, was $60 million, a 12.0 percent decrease versus the comparable period last year. The segment reported operating margin was 13.9 percent, down 290 basis points versus the prior year period. Adjusted operating margin declined 320 basis points to 14.1 percent. Strong price realization and productivity benefits were more than offset by inflation.

Measurement & Control Solutions

Xylem’s Measurement & Control Solutions segment consists of its portfolio of businesses in smart metering, network technologies, advanced infrastructure analytics and analytic instrumentation.

  • First quarter 2022 Measurement & Control Solutions revenue was $314 million, down 9 percent organically versus the prior year. The decline is in-line with our expectations and a result of the ongoing chip supply shortage and the outsized impact to our North American smart metering business.
  • First quarter adjusted EBITDA margin was 8.6 percent, down 470 basis points from the prior year. Reported operating income for the segment was $(10) million, and adjusted operating income, which excludes $2 million of restructuring and realignment costs, was $(8) million, a 173 percent decrease versus the comparable period last year. The Measurement & Control Solutions segment reported operating margin was (3.2) percent, down 570 basis points versus the prior year period. Adjusted operating margin of (2.5) percent decreased 560 basis points over the prior year period. Volume declines from component shortages and higher inflation more than offset price realization and productivity savings.

Xylem Inc. Non-GAAP Measures
 
Management reviews key performance indicators including revenue, gross margins, segment operating income and margins, orders growth, working capital and backlog, among others. In addition, we consider certain non-GAAP (or "adjusted") measures to be useful to management and investors evaluating our operating performance for the periods presented, and to provide a tool for evaluating our ongoing operations, liquidity and management of assets. This information can assist investors in assessing our financial performance and measures our ability to generate capital for deployment among competing strategic alternatives and initiatives, including but not limited to, dividends, acquisitions, share repurchases and debt repayment. Excluding revenue, Xylem provides guidance only on a non-GAAP basis due to the inherent difficulty in forecasting certain amounts that would be included in GAAP earnings, such as discrete tax items, without unreasonable effort. These adjusted metrics are consistent with how management views our business and are used to make financial, operating and planning decisions. These metrics, however, are not measures of financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered a substitute for revenue, operating income, net income, earnings per share (basic and diluted) or net cash from operating activities as determined in accordance with GAAP. We consider the following items to represent the non-GAAP measures we consider to be key performance indicators, as well as the related reconciling items to the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. The non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.
 
“Organic revenue" and "Organic orders” defined as revenue and orders, respectively, excluding the impact of fluctuations in foreign currency translation and contributions from acquisitions and divestitures. Divestitures include sales or discontinuance of insignificant portions of our business that did not meet the criteria for classification as a discontinued operation. The period-over-period change resulting from foreign currency translation impacts is determined by translating current period and prior period activity using the same currency conversion rate.
 
“Constant currency” defined as financial results adjusted for foreign currency translation impacts by translating current period and prior period activity using the same currency conversion rate. This approach is used for countries whose functional currency is not the U.S. dollar.
 
“EBITDA” defined as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization expense. “Adjusted EBITDA” and "Adjusted Segment EBITDA" reflects the adjustments to EBITDA and segment EBITDA, respectively, to exclude share-based compensation charges, restructuring and realignment costs, gain or loss from sale of businesses and special charges.
 
"Adjusted EBITDA Margin" and "Adjusted Segment EBITDA margin" defined as adjusted EBITDA and adjusted segment EBITDA divided by total revenue and segment revenue, respectively.
 
"Adjusted Operating Income", "Adjusted Segment Operating Income", "Adjusted Net Income" and “Adjusted EPS” defined as operating income, segment operating income, net income and earnings per share, adjusted to exclude restructuring and realignment costs, gain or loss from sale of businesses, special charges and tax-related special items, as applicable.
 
"Adjusted Operating Margin" and "Adjusted Segment Operating Margin" defined as adjusted operating income and adjusted segment operating income divided by total revenue and segment revenue, respectively.
 
“Free Cash Flow” defined as net cash from operating activities, as reported in the Statement of Cash Flows, less capital expenditures, and "Free Cash Flow Conversion" defined as Free Cash Flows divided by net income, excluding the gain on sale of businesses, non-cash impairment charges and significant deferred tax items. Our definitions of "free cash flow" and "free cash flow conversion" do not consider certain non-discretionary cash payments, such as debt.
 
“Realignment costs” defined as costs not included in restructuring costs that are incurred as part of actions taken to reposition our business, including items such as professional fees, severance, relocation, travel, facility set-up and other costs.
 
“Special charges" defined as costs incurred by the Company, such as acquisition and integration related costs, non-cash impairment charges and both operating and non-operating adjustments for costs related to the UK pension plan buyout.
 
“Tax-related special items" defined as tax items, such as tax return versus tax provision adjustments, tax exam impacts, tax law change impacts, excess tax benefits/losses and other discrete tax adjustments.
