KENOSHA, Wis.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--October 19, 2023--Snap-on Incorporated (NYSE: SNA), a leading global innovator, manufacturer and marketer of tools, equipment, diagnostics, repair information and systems solutions for professional users performing critical tasks, today announced operating results for the third quarter of 2023.

  • Net sales of $1,159.3 million in the third quarter of 2023 represented an increase of $56.8 million, or 5.2%, from 2022 levels, reflecting a $52.4 million, or 4.7%, organic sales gain and $4.4 million of favorable foreign currency translation.

  • Operating earnings before financial services for the quarter of $245.2 million compared to $223.5 million in 2022. As a percentage of net sales, operating earnings before financial services were 21.2% in the third quarter compared to 20.3% last year, reflecting an improvement of 90 basis points.

  • Financial services revenue in the quarter of $94.9 million compared to $87.3 million in 2022; financial services operating earnings of $69.4 million compared to $66.4 million last year.

  • Consolidated operating earnings for the quarter of $314.6 million, or 25.1% of revenues (net sales plus financial services revenue), compared to $289.9 million, or 24.4% of revenues, last year.

  • The third quarter effective income tax rate was 22.6% in 2023 and 21.6% in 2022.

  • Net earnings in the quarter of $243.1 million, or $4.51 per diluted share, compared to net earnings of $223.9 million, or $4.14 per diluted share, a year ago.

See “Non-GAAP Measures” below for a definition of, and further explanation about, organic sales.

“We’re encouraged by our third quarter as it reflects ongoing advancement in sales, profitability, and earnings in a continually changing environment, and it demonstrates the wide-ranging and considerable strengths that mark each of our operating segments,” said Nick Pinchuk, Snap-on chairman and chief executive officer. “Achieved in a period of variability, we believe our performance confirms the resilience of our markets and illustrates the diverse opportunities along our runways for growth, in both our activities within automotive repair and with those outside the garage, particularly in our businesses serving critical industries, which continue to display significant progress. At the same time, we are maintaining and fortifying our decisive advantages by leveraging our Snap-on Value Creation Processes. In that regard, we were again honored with product awards from both Motor Magazine and Professional Tool & Equipment News. Period after period, the innovations identified by our sales organizations through customer connection and developed by our engineering teams solve essential tasks, create excitement for our customers, reinforce the strength of the Snap-on brand, and help drive our unrelenting improvement. As always, I want to thank our franchisees and associates worldwide for their notable contributions, their steadfast dedication, and their unwavering confidence in our future.”


Segment Results

Commercial & Industrial Group segment sales of $366.4 million in the quarter compared to $356.8 million last year, reflecting an $11.2 million, or 3.2%, organic sales gain, partially offset by $1.6 million of unfavorable foreign currency translation. The organic increase is primarily due to higher activity with customers in critical industries, partially offset by lower sales in the segment’s Asia Pacific operations.

Operating earnings of $58.1 million in the period, including $2.9 million of unfavorable foreign currency effects, compared to $52.3 million in 2022. The operating margin (operating earnings as a percentage of segment sales) improved 120 basis points to 15.9% in the quarter from 14.7% last year.

Snap-on Tools Group segment sales of $515.4 million in the quarter compared to $496.6 million last year, reflecting an $18.3 million, or 3.7%, organic sales increase and $0.5 million of favorable foreign currency translation. The organic gain is comprised of higher sales in both the international and U.S. operations.

Operating earnings of $113.4 million in the period, including $2.7 million of unfavorable foreign currency effects, compared to $102.2 million in 2022. The operating margin improved 140 basis points to 22.0% in the quarter from 20.6% a year ago.

Repair Systems & Information Group segment sales of $431.8 million in the quarter compared to $414.0 million last year, reflecting a $13.0 million, or 3.1%, organic sales increase and $4.8 million of favorable foreign currency translation. The organic gain includes higher sales of undercar equipment and increased sales of diagnostic and repair information products to independent repair shop owners and managers, partially offset by lower activity with OEM dealerships.

Operating earnings of $104.9 million in the period, including $0.2 million of favorable foreign currency effects, compared to $95.4 million in 2022. The operating margin improved 130 basis points to 24.3% in the quarter from 23.0% last year.

Financial Services operating earnings of $69.4 million on revenue of $94.9 million in the quarter compared to operating earnings of $66.4 million on revenue of $87.3 million a year ago. Originations of $305.2 million in the period represented an increase of $5.0 million, or 1.7%, from 2022 levels.

Corporate expenses in the third quarter of $31.2 million compared to $26.4 million last year.

Outlook

We believe that our markets and our operations possess and have demonstrated continuing and considerable resilience against the uncertainties of the current environment. For the remainder of 2023, Snap-on expects to make ongoing progress along its defined runways for coherent growth, leveraging capabilities already demonstrated in the automotive repair arena and developing and expanding its professional customer base, not only in automotive repair, but in adjacent markets, additional geographies and other areas, including extending in critical industries, where the cost and penalties for failure can be high. In pursuit of these initiatives, we project that capital expenditures in 2023 will approximate $100 million, of which $73.9 million was incurred in the first nine months of the year.

Snap-on currently anticipates that its full-year 2023 effective income tax rate will approximate 23%.

Non-GAAP Measures

References in this release to “organic sales” refer to sales from continuing operations calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”), adjusted to exclude acquisition-related sales and the impact of foreign currency translation. Management evaluates the company’s sales performance based on organic sales growth, which primarily reflects growth from the company’s existing businesses as a result of increased output, expanded customer base, geographic expansion, new product development and pricing changes, and excludes sales contributions from acquired operations the company did not own as of the comparable prior-year reporting period. Organic sales also exclude the effects of foreign currency translation as foreign currency translation is subject to volatility that can obscure underlying business trends. Management believes that the non-GAAP financial measure of organic sales is meaningful to investors as it provides them with useful information to aid in identifying underlying growth trends in the company’s businesses and facilitates comparisons of its sales performance with prior periods.
