SHELTON, CT. (October 29, 2024) – Hubbell
Incorporated (NYSE: HUBB) today reported operating results for the
third quarter ended September 30, 2024.
“Hubbell delivered strong operating performance
in the third quarter, generating solid operating margin expansion
and double digit growth in operating income” said Gerben Bakker,
Chairman, President and CEO.
Mr. Bakker continued, “In our Utility Solutions
segment, transmission, substation and grid protection and controls
markets were strong as utility customers invest to accommodate load
growth and interconnect new sources of renewable generation. As
anticipated, telcom markets remained weak in the quarter and
utility distribution markets continued to reflect the impact of
customer inventory normalization. Utility Solutions returned to
year-over-year operating margin expansion in the quarter. Our
Electrical Solutions segment delivered another quarter of strong
operating performance, with solid organic growth and continued
margin expansion. Performance in the quarter was led by strength in
datacenter and renewables verticals, as well as productivity,
operating efficiencies and portfolio transformation efforts."
Mr. Bakker concluded, “As grid modernization and
electrification megatrends accelerate, Hubbell remains uniquely
positioned to continue achieving differentiated long term
performance for our customers and shareholders."
Certain terms used in this release, including
"net debt", "free cash flow", "organic net sales", "organic net
sales growth", "restructuring-related costs", "Adjusted EBITDA",
and certain other "adjusted" measures, are defined under the
section entitled "Non-GAAP Definitions." See page 9 for more
information.
THIRD QUARTER FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS
The comments and year-over-year comparisons in
this segment review are based on third quarter results in 2024 and
2023.
Utility Solutions segment net sales in the third
quarter of 2024 increased 11% to $933 million compared to $838
million reported in the third quarter of 2023. Organic net sales
decreased approximately 4% in the quarter while acquisitions added
15%. Grid Infrastructure net sales increased approximately 15% and
Grid Automation net sales increased approximately 4%. Segment
operating income was $211 million, or 22.6% of net sales, in the
third quarter of 2024 as compared to $187 million, or 22.3% of net
sales in the same period of 2023. Adjusted operating income was
$236 million, or 25.3% of net sales, in the third quarter of 2024
as compared to $201 million, or 24.0% of net sales in the
prior year period. Changes in operating income and operating margin
were primarily due to the impact of acquisitions,
price/cost/productivity management and prior year investments,
partially offset by volume declines in enclosures products
primarily driven by telcom markets.
Electrical Solutions segment net sales in the
third quarter of 2024 decreased to $510 million compared to $538
million reported in the third quarter of 2023. Organic net sales
increased 3% in the quarter, while a divestiture reduced segment
net sales by 8%. Segment operating income was $93 million, or 18.3%
of net sales, compared to $90 million, or 16.6% of net sales in the
same period of 2023. Adjusted operating income was $99 million, or
19.4% of net sales, in the third quarter of 2024 as compared to $94
million, or 17.5% of net sales in the same period of the prior
year. Changes in operating income and operating margin were driven
primarily by volume growth, price/cost/productivity management and
the impact of portfolio transformation and mix.
Adjusted diluted EPS in the third quarter 2024
excludes $0.40 of amortization of acquisition-related intangible
assets and $0.04 of transaction, integration, and separation costs.
Adjusted diluted EPS in the third quarter 2023 excluded $0.25 of
amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets.
Net cash provided by operating activities was
$227 million in the third quarter of 2024 versus net cash provided
by operating activities of $194 million in the 2023 period. Free
cash flow was $189 million in the third quarter of 2024 versus
$159 million in the comparable period of 2023.
SUMMARY & OUTLOOK
For the full year 2024, Hubbell anticipates
diluted earnings per share in the range of $14.20-$14.40 and
anticipates adjusted diluted earnings per share ("Adjusted EPS") in
the range of $16.35-$16.55. Adjusted EPS excludes amortization of
acquisition-related intangible assets, which the Company expects to
be approximately $1.75 for the full year, a $0.22 loss on
disposition of the residential lighting business, and $0.17 of
transaction, integration, and separation costs. The Company
believes Adjusted EPS is a useful measure of underlying performance
in light of our acquisition and divestiture strategy.
Hubbell anticipates full year 2024 total sales
growth of approximately 6% and organic net sales growth of
approximately 1%, as compared to full year 2023. The Company
anticipates acquisitions net of the residential lighting business
divestiture contributing approximately 5% to full year sales
growth.
The diluted EPS and Adjusted EPS ranges are
based on an adjusted tax rate of 22.0% to 22.5% and include
approximately $0.35 of anticipated restructuring and related
investment. The Company continues to expect full year 2024 free
cash flow of approximately $800 million.

rates and the potential use of hedging instruments to hedge the
exposure to fluctuating rates of foreign currency exchange on
inventory purchases; the outcome of contingencies or costs compared
to amounts provided for such contingencies, including those with
respect to pension withdrawal liabilities; achieving sales levels
to meet revenue expectations; unexpected costs or charges, certain
of which may be outside the Company’s control; the effects of trade
tariffs, import quotas and other trade restrictions or actions

businesses, including the 2023 acquisitions of EI Electronics LLC,
Indústria Eletromecânica Balestro Ltda.; and Northern Star
Holdings, Inc. (the Systems Control business), as well as the
failure to realize expected synergies and benefits anticipated when
we make an acquisition due to potential adverse reactions or
changes to business or employee relationships resulting from
completion of the transaction, competitive responses to the
transaction, the possibility that the anticipated benefits of the
transaction are not realized when expected or at all, including as
a result of the impact of, or problems arising from, the
integration of the acquired business, diversion of management’s
attention from ongoing business operations and opportunities, and
litigation relating to the transaction; the impact of certain
divestitures, including the benefits and costs of the sale of the
residential lighting business; the ability to effectively develop
and introduce new products, expand into new markets and deploy
capital; and other factors described in our Securities and Exchange
Commission filings, including in the “Business”, “Risk Factors”,
“Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations”, “Forward-Looking Statements” and

NON-GAAP DEFINITIONS
References to "adjusted" operating measures
exclude the impact of certain costs, gains or losses. Management
believes these adjusted operating measures provide useful
information regarding our underlying performance from period to
period and an understanding of our results of operations without
regard to items we do not consider a component of our core
operating performance. Adjusted operating measures are non-GAAP
measures, and include adjusted operating income, adjusted operating
margin, adjusted net income attributed to Hubbell Incorporated,
adjusted net income available to common shareholders, adjusted
earnings per diluted share, and Adjusted EBITDA. These non-GAAP
measures exclude, where applicable:
- Amortization of all intangible
assets associated with our business acquisitions, including
inventory step-up amortization associated with those acquisitions.
The intangible assets associated with our business acquisitions
arise from the allocation of the purchase price using the
acquisition method of accounting in accordance with Accounting
Standards Codification 805, “Business Combinations.” These assets
consist primarily of customer relationships, developed technology,
trademarks and tradenames, and patents, as reported in Note
7—Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, under the heading “Total
Definite-Lived Intangibles,” within the Company’s audited
consolidated financial statements set forth in its Annual Report on
Form 10-K for Fiscal Year Ended December 31, 2023. The Company
excludes these non-cash expenses because we believe it (i) enhances
management’s and investors’ ability to analyze underlying business
performance, (ii) facilitates comparisons of our financial results
over multiple periods, and (iii) provides more relevant comparisons
of our results with the results of other companies as the
amortization expense associated with these assets may fluctuate
significantly from period to period based on the timing, size,
nature, and number of acquisitions. Although we exclude
amortization of these acquired intangible assets and inventory
step-up from our non-GAAP results, we believe that it is important
for investors to understand that revenue generated, in part, from
such intangibles is included within revenue in determining adjusted
net income attributable to Hubbell Incorporated.
- Transaction, integration, and
separation costs associated with our business acquisitions and
divestitures. The effects that acquisitions and divestitures may
have on our results fluctuate significantly based on the timing,
size, and number of transactions, and therefore results in
significant volatility in the costs to complete transactions and
integrate or separate the businesses. The size of acquisition and
divestiture actions taken by the Company in the fourth quarter of
2023 has resulted in a significant increase in these costs, as a
result we believe excluding costs, relating to these fourth quarter
transactions provides useful and more comparative information to
investors to better assess our operating performance.
- Gains or losses from the
disposition of a business. The Company excludes these gains or
losses because we believe it enhances management's and investors'
ability to analyze underlying business performance and facilitates
comparisons of our financial results over multiple periods. In the
first quarter of 2024 the Company recognized a $5.3 million pre-tax
loss on the disposition of the residential lighting business.
- The income tax effect directly
related to the disposition of the residential lighting business. In
the first quarter of 2024 the Company recognized $6.8 million of
income tax expense on the sale of the residential lighting
business, primarily driven by differences between book and tax
basis in goodwill.
- Income tax
effects of the above adjustments, which are calculated using the
statutory tax rate, taking into consideration the nature of the
item and the relevant taxing jurisdiction, unless otherwise
noted.
Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP measure that
excludes the items noted above and also excludes the Other income
(expense), net, Interest expense, net, and Provision for income
taxes captions of the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Income,
as well as depreciation and amortization expense.
Net debt (defined as total debt less cash and
investments) to total capital is a non-GAAP measure that we believe
is a useful measure for evaluating the Company's financial leverage
and the ability to meet its funding needs.
Free cash flow is a non-GAAP measure that we
believe provides useful information regarding the Company's ability
to generate cash without reliance on external financing. In
addition, management uses free cash flow to evaluate the resources
available for investments in the business, strategic acquisitions
and further strengthening the balance sheet.
In connection with our restructuring and related
actions, we have incurred restructuring costs as defined by U.S.
GAAP, which are primarily severance and employee benefits, asset
impairments, accelerated depreciation, as well as facility closure,
contract termination and certain pension costs that are directly
related to restructuring actions. We also incur
restructuring-related costs, which are costs associated with our
business transformation initiatives, including the consolidation of
back-office functions and streamlining our processes, and certain
other costs and gains associated with restructuring actions. We
refer to these costs on a combined basis as "restructuring and
related costs", which is a non-GAAP measure.
Organic net sales, a non-GAAP measure,
represents net sales according to U.S. GAAP, less net sales from
acquisitions and divestitures during the first twelve months of
ownership or divestiture, respectively, less the effect of
fluctuations in net sales from foreign currency exchange. The
period-over-period effect of fluctuations in net sales from foreign
currency exchange is calculated as the difference between local
currency net sales of the prior period translated at the current
period exchange rate as compared to the same local currency net
sales translated at the prior period exchange rate. We believe this
measure provides management and investors with a more complete
understanding of underlying operating results and trends of
established, ongoing operations by excluding the effect of
acquisitions, dispositions and foreign currency, as these
activities can obscure underlying trends. When comparing net sales
growth between periods excluding the effects of acquisitions,
business dispositions and currency exchange rates, those effects
are different when comparing results for different periods. For
example, because net sales from acquisitions are considered
inorganic from the date we complete an acquisition through the end
of the first year following the acquisition, net sales from such
acquisition are reflected as organic net sales thereafter.
There are limitations to the use of non-GAAP
measures. Non-GAAP measures do not present complete financial
results. We compensate for this limitation by providing a
reconciliation between our non-GAAP financial measures and the
respective most directly comparable financial measure calculated
and presented in accordance with GAAP. Because non-GAAP financial
measures are not standardized, it may not be possible to compare
these financial measures with other companies’ non-GAAP financial
measures having the same or similar names. These financial measures
should not be considered in isolation from, as substitutes for, or
alternative measures of, reported GAAP financial results, and
should be viewed in conjunction with the most comparable GAAP
financial measures and the provided reconciliations thereto. We
believe, however, that these non-GAAP financial measures, when
viewed together with our GAAP results and related reconciliations,
provide a more complete understanding of our business. We strongly
encourage investors to review our consolidated financial statements
and publicly filed reports in their entirety and not rely on any
single financial measure.
Reconciliations of each of these non-GAAP
measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measure can be found
in the tables below. When we provide our expectations for organic
net sales, adjusted effective tax rate, adjusted diluted EPS and
free cash flow on a forward-looking basis, a reconciliation of the
differences between the non-GAAP expectations and the corresponding
GAAP measures (expected net sales, effective tax rate, diluted EPS
and net cash flows provided by operating activities) generally is
not available without unreasonable effort due to potentially high
variability, complexity and low visibility as to the items that
would be excluded from the GAAP measure in the relevant future
period, such as unusual gains and losses, fluctuations in foreign
currency exchange rates, the impact and timing of potential
acquisitions and divestitures, certain financing costs, and other
structural changes or their probable significance. The variability
of the excluded items may have a significant, and potentially
unpredictable, impact on our future GAAP results.
