DALLAS, Feb. 2, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Lennox International Inc. (NYSE: LII) today reported fourth quarter and full year 2011 results.

For the fourth quarter, revenue was $756 million, down 1% from the prior-year quarter.  Excluding the Kysor/Warren acquisition that closed in January 2011, revenue was down 7% in the fourth quarter. Total segment profit margin for the company overall was 5.5% compared to 6.4% in the prior-year quarter. Diluted earnings per share from continuing operations on an adjusted basis was $0.51 compared to $0.55 in the prior-year quarter. Diluted earnings per share from continuing operations on a GAAP basis was $0.32 compared to $0.51 in the fourth quarter a year ago.

For the full year, revenue was $3.3 billion, up 7% from the prior year. At constant currency, revenue was up 5%. Excluding the Kysor/Warren acquisition, revenue was flat, or down 2% at constant currency. Total segment profit margin for the company overall was 5.4% compared to 7.0% in the prior year. Diluted earnings per share from continuing operations on an adjusted basis, was $2.04 compared to $2.40 in 2010. Diluted earnings per share from continuing operations on a GAAP basis was $1.65 compared to $2.10 in the prior year.  

"In 2011, the residential HVAC market was down in dollar value compared to 2010, primarily from a lower mix of business without the $1,500 U.S. tax credit for high-efficiency equipment in place and with the re-emergence of minimum-efficiency condensing units in the industry based on the old R-22 refrigerant," said Todd Bluedorn, CEO of Lennox International. "Our residential equipment and service businesses were down accordingly in 2011. Our commercial and refrigeration businesses, however, were up in 2011. At constant currency, Commercial revenue grew 10% and Refrigeration revenue grew 5% on an organic basis, adjusted for the Kysor/Warren acquisition and the strategic exit of the third-party coil business in Australia.

"In the fourth quarter, our Commercial business continued to show strong, broad-based growth, with revenue up 9% at constant currency and margin up 230 basis points to a record fourth-quarter level of 11.1%. In our Refrigeration business, organic revenue was up 2% at constant currency. Margins expanded 170 basis points to a record fourth-quarter level of 11.7%.

"Turning to our residential equipment and service businesses, revenue and profits were down on the warmer winter weather across North America in the fourth quarter and against the tough comparison to a year ago. In the fourth quarter of 2010, we saw a pull-forward of demand ahead of our announced price increases and from the approaching expiration of the federal tax credit at the $1,500 level. As discussed at the time, these effects drove volume and a strong product mix.

"Looking at 2012 overall, we continue to expect low single-digit shipment growth across our commercial, refrigeration, and residential end markets, and expect total company revenue growth of 2-6%. We reiterate our adjusted EPS guidance range of $2.20-$2.60 for the full year."

Revenue: Revenue for the fourth quarter was $756 million, down 1% from the prior year. Foreign exchange was neutral to revenue. Excluding Kysor/Warren and at constant currency, revenue was down 7%. Volume was down, and price/mix was flat against the fourth quarter a year ago.

Gross Profit: Gross profit in the fourth quarter was $190 million compared to $220 million in the prior-year quarter. Gross margin was 25.1% versus 28.9% in the fourth quarter a year ago.

Gross from $372.1 to $420.8, Inventories as Adjusted from $384.8 to $410.4 and Accounts Payable from $(255.7) to $(277.0).    


Net Sales, Trailing Twelve Months would increase $213.9 (representing approximately eleven and a half months of Net Sales)    


to $3,303.6 resulting in an Operational Working Capital Ratio of 16.8%.
