3M Second-Quarter Sales Increase 18 Percent; Per-Share Earnings Rise 38 Percent

Company Again Raises 2010 Sales and Earnings Expectations

3M (NYSE: MMM) today reported record second-quarter earnings of $1.54 per share on sales of $6.7 billion. Sales and per-share earnings increased 17.7 percent and 37.5 percent, respectively, versus the second quarter of 2009. Excluding special items (b-c) recorded in the second quarter of 2009, earnings per share rose 28.3 percent.

Sales improved in all businesses and geographic regions, with particular strength in Electro and Communications at 32 percent, Display and Graphics at 30 percent and Industrial and Transportation at 23 percent. On a geographic basis, sales growth was strongest in emerging economies, where sales expanded by 38 percent versus the second quarter of 2009. Total-company sales rose 18 percent year-on-year and 6 percent sequentially, and have now returned to second quarter 2008 levels.

3M generated record second-quarter operating income of $1.596 billion and operating margins were 23.7 percent. All six of the company’s business segments posted operating margins of 22 percent or higher.

“Our growth strategy continues to gain momentum as we again delivered strong top-line growth and outstanding leverage to the bottom line,” said George W. Buckley, 3M chairman, president and chief executive officer. “I thank the 3M team around the world for continuing to deliver during these uncertain times.”

Buckley added that the second-quarter results reaffirm the company’s long-term strategy of accelerating investment in higher growth opportunities.

“Our new product vitality index is the highest in recent memory and we are taking share in many of our businesses,” he said. “3M’s improved engine of organic growth, combined with our commitment to operational excellence positions us well to deliver sustainable increases in sales, earnings and free cash flow.”

For the third consecutive quarter, 3M increased its full-year 2010 performance expectations. The company now expects organic sales volumes to grow 13 to 15 percent versus a prior expected range of 10 to 12 percent. Operating income margins, previously anticipated to exceed 22 percent, are now expected to exceed 22.5 percent for the year. Finally, the company expects that per-share earnings will be in the range of $5.65 to $5.80, excluding the Medicare Part D-related charge recorded in the first quarter of this year, versus a prior expected range of $5.40 to $5.60.

Key Financial Highlights
Second-quarter worldwide sales totaled $6.7 billion, up 17.7 percent compared to the second quarter of 2009. Local-currency sales including acquisitions increased 17.9 percent. Divestitures and foreign exchange impacts each reduced sales by 0.1 percent.

Sales growth was broad-based, with year-on-year increases of 32 percent in Electro and Communications, 30 percent in Display and Graphics, 23 percent in Industrial and Transportation, 10 percent in both Consumer and Office and in Safety, Security and Protection Services and 5 percent in Health Care. On a geographic basis, sales rose 42 percent in Asia Pacific, 21 percent in Latin America and Canada and 9 percent in the United States. Sales rose over 4 percent in Europe in the quarter, as organic volume growth of nearly 11 percent was partially offset by 6-plus points of negative currency impact, primarily due to the weaker Euro.

Second-quarter net income was $1.121 billion, or $1.54 per share, versus $783 million, or $1.12 per share, in the second quarter of 2009. Total-company operating income was $1.596 billion, a record for any second quarter in 3M’s history, and margins were 23.7 percent. All six of 3M’s business segments posted operating margins of 22 percent or higher.

                        RECONCILIATION OF GAAP TO NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
                        (Millions, except per-share amounts)
                        (Unaudited)
 

In addition to reporting financial results in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), the company also discusses non-GAAP measures that exclude special items. Operating income, net income attributable to 3M (hereafter referred to as “net income”), and diluted earnings per share attributable to 3M common shareholders (hereafter referred to as “diluted earnings per share”) are all measures for which 3M provides the reported GAAP measure and an adjusted measure (excluding special items). Special items are not in accordance with, nor are they a substitute for, GAAP measures. Special items represent significant charges or credits that are important to an understanding of the company’s ongoing operations. The company uses these non-GAAP measures to evaluate and manage the company’s operations. The company believes that discussion of results excluding special items provides a useful analysis of ongoing operating trends. The determination of special items may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies.

The reconciliation provided below reconciles the non-GAAP financial measures with the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures for the three-months and six-months ended June 30, 2010.

    Three-months ended   Six-months ended

Special items:                        
Medicare tax change (a)                     84     0.12
                         
Adjusted Non-GAAP measure   $ 1,596   $ 1,121   $ 1.54   $ 3,041   $ 2,135   $ 2.95
 
     
(a)  

The first six-months of 2010 includes a one-time, non-cash income tax charge of $84 million, or 12 cents per diluted share, resulting from the March 2010 enactment of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, including modifications made in the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act of 2010 (collectively, the "Act"). The charge is due to a reduction in the value of the Company’s deferred tax asset as a result of the Act's change to the tax treatment of Medicare Part D reimbursements.

 

The reconciliation provided below reconciles the non-GAAP financial measures with the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures for the three-months and six-months ended June 30, 2009.

(b)

  During the first and second quarters of 2009, management approved and committed to undertake certain restructuring actions, which resulted in a pre-tax charge for the three-months and six-months ended June 30, 2009 of $116 million and $183 million, respectively. This charge related to employee-related liabilities for severance/benefits and other of approximately $103 million and fixed asset impairments of approximately $13 million for the three-months ended June 30, 2009. Employee-related liabilities for severance/benefits and other of approximately $164 million and fixed asset impairments of approximately $19 million were recorded for the six-months ended June 30, 2009. All business segments were impacted by these actions. These charges were recorded in cost of sales; selling, general and administrative expenses; and research, development and related expenses, with these expenses totaling $68 million, $44 million and $4 million, respectively, for the three-months ended June 30, 2009, and totaling $85 million, $91 million and $7 million, respectively, for the six-months ended June 30, 2009.
     

(c)

 

In June 2009, 3M completed the sale of a New Jersey roofing granule facility and recorded a pre-tax gain of $15 million. This gain was recorded in cost of sales within the Safety, Security and Protection Services business segment.

     
 

The reconciliation provided below reconciles the non-GAAP operating income measure by business segment with the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure for the three-months and six-months ended June 30, 2009. There were no special items that impacted operating income for the three-months ended and six-months ended June 30, 2010. As discussed in more detail later in the section entitled “Business Segments,” 3M made certain product moves between its business segments in the first quarter of 2010. Segment information for all periods presented has been reclassified to reflect these changes.

(d)  

Free cash flow is not defined under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). Therefore, it should not be considered a substitute for income or cash flow data prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies. The company defines free cash flow as net cash provided by operating activities less purchases of property, plant and equipment. It should not be inferred that the entire free cash flow amount is available for discretionary expenditures. The company believes free cash flow is a useful measure of performance and uses this measure as an indication of the strength of the company and its ability to generate cash.

Net Working Capital Turns (e)             5.4         4.8  
 
(e)   The company uses various working capital measures that place emphasis and focus on certain working capital assets and liabilities. 3M’s net working capital index is defined as quarterly net sales multiplied by four, divided by ending net accounts receivable plus inventory less accounts payable. This measure is not recognized under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies.

Effective in the first quarter of 2010, 3M made certain product moves between its business segments in its continuing effort to drive growth by aligning businesses around markets and customers. There were no changes impacting business segments related to product moves for the Health Care segment, Consumer and Office segment, Display and Graphics segment, or Electro and Communications segment. In addition, 3M results in total did not change. The financial information presented herein reflects for all periods presented the impact of product moves between business segments, which are summarized as follows:
 
      Certain acoustic systems products in the Occupational Health and Environmental Safety Division (part of the Safety, Security and Protection Services business segment) were transferred to the Automotive Division within the Industrial and Transportation business segment. In addition, thermal acoustics systems products which were included in the Occupational Health and Environmental Safety Division as a result of 3M’s April 2008 acquisition of Aearo Holding Corp. were transferred to the Aerospace and Aircraft Maintenance Department within the Industrial and Transportation business segment. These product moves established an acoustic center of excellence within the Industrial and Transportation business segment. The preceding product moves resulted in an increase in net sales for total year 2009 of $116 million for Industrial and Transportation, which was offset by a corresponding decrease in net sales for Safety, Security and Protection Services.
