  • Revenues were $1.68 billion for the second quarter of 2013
  • Segment operating margin was 8.1 percent, a 70 bps improvement over Q2 2012
  • Total operating margin was 6.9 percent, up from 6.2 percent in the same period last year
  • Diluted earnings per share was $1.12 for the quarter; pension-adjusted diluted earnings per share was $1.36
  • Cash and cash equivalents at the end of the quarter were $623 million

NEWPORT NEWS, Va., Aug. 7, 2013 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Huntington Ingalls Industries (NYSE:HII) reported second quarter 2013 revenues of $1.68 billion, down 2.2 percent from the same period last year. Segment operating income for the second quarter was $136 million, compared to $127 million in the same period last year. Total operating income for the quarter was $116 million, up 9.4 percent from $106 million in the same period last year. Pension-adjusted operating income for the second quarter was $134 million, or 8.0 percent of revenue, up from $125 million, or 7.3 percent of revenue, in the comparable period of 2012. The income increases were primarily attributable to additional risk retirement on the SSN-774 Virginia-class (VCS) and National Security Cutter (NSC) programs, partially offset by lower volumes on amphibious assault ships and the receipt of $7 million for resolution of a contract dispute with a private party in the same period last year.

Second quarter diluted earnings per share was $1.12, compared to $1.00 in the same period of 2012. Pension-adjusted diluted earnings per share for the quarter was $1.36, compared to $1.24 in the comparable period of 2012.

New business awards for the quarter were $5.3 billion, bringing total backlog at the end of the quarter to $20.7 billion, of which $13.7 billion is funded. Significant new awards during the period included contracts for the construction of five DDG-51 Arleigh Burke-class destroyers, the inactivation of CVN-65 USS Enterprise and the construction of NSC-6 Munro.

"I am very pleased with the program execution at both Ingalls and Newport News as we drive performance toward our 2015 target of 9-plus percent operating margin," said Mike Petters, HII's president and chief executive officer. "We also continue to strengthen our backlog and long-term revenue visibility through the receipt of major new contract awards."

Operating Segment Results

Ingalls Shipbuilding

  Three Months Ended    
  June 30    
($ in millions) 2013 2012 $ Change % Change
Revenues $672 $756 $(84) (11.1)%
Operating income (loss) 35 38 (3) (7.9)%
Operating margin % 5.2% 5.0%   18 bps

Ingalls revenues for the second quarter decreased $84 million, or 11.1 percent, from the same period in 2012, driven by lower sales in amphibious assault ships, partially offset by higher sales in the NSC program and surface combatants. The decrease in amphibious assault ship revenues was due to lower sales on LPD-23 USS Anchorage, LPD-24 USS Arlington, LPD-25 Somerset and LHA-6 America, partially offset by higher sales on LPD-26 John P. Murtha, LPD-27 Portland and LHA-7 Tripoli. Revenues on the NSC program were higher due to higher sales on the construction contracts of NSC-4 Hamilton, NSC-5 James and NSC-6 Munro. Surface combatants revenues were higher because of higher sales on DDG-113 John Finn and DDG-114 Ralph Johnson, partially offset by lower volumes on the DDG-1000 Zumwalt-class destroyer program.

Ingalls operating income for the quarter was $35 million, a decrease of $3 million from the same period in 2012. Operating margin was 5.2 percent, up 18 bps from the comparable period last year. This increase was primarily due to risk retirement on the amphibious assault ships and NSC program, partially offset by the receipt of $7 million for resolution of a contract dispute with a private party in the same period last year.

Key Ingalls program milestones for the quarter:

  • Awarded a $3.3 billion fixed-price incentive, multi-year contract for construction of five Arleigh Burke-class destroyers (DDG 51s)
  • Awarded a $487 million, fixed-price-incentive fee contract to build NSC-6 Munro
  • Awarded a $76.8 million fixed-price contract for long-lead materials on NSC-7 Kimball
  • Authenticated the keel for NSC-5 James

Revenues $ 1,031 $ 979 $ 52 5.3%
Operating income (loss) 101 89 12 13.5%
Operating margin % 9.8% 9.1%   71 bps

Newport News revenues for the second quarter increased $52 million, or 5.3 percent, from the same period in 2012, primarily driven by higher sales in fleet support services, aircraft carriers and submarines. Higher revenues in fleet support services were primarily the result of volume associated with repair work on SSN-765 USS Montpelier. Aircraft carrier revenues were higher from the comparable period in 2012 due to increased volume on the CVN-72 USS Abraham Lincoln refueling and complex overhaul (RCOH), the construction preparation contract for CVN-79 John F. Kennedy and the inactivation of CVN-65 USS Enterprise. These increases were offset by lower volumes on the CVN-71 USS Theodore Roosevelt RCOH and the construction of CVN-78 Gerald R. Ford. Submarine revenues increased due to higher sales on the VCS program, primarily driven by risk retirement and higher volumes on Block III and the advance procurement of Block IV, partially offset by lower volumes on Block II following the delivery of SSN-783 Minnesota.

Newport News operating income for the quarter was $101 million, a $12 million increase over the same period in 2012. Operating margin was 9.8 percent, up 71 bps from the comparable period in the prior year, primarily driven by risk retirement and performance improvement on the VCS program.

Key Newport News program milestones for the quarter:

  • Delivered SSN-783 Minnesota, the last of the Block II Virginia-class submarines, nearly 11 months ahead of schedule
  • Awarded a $745 million cost-plus-incentive fee contract for the inactivation of CVN-65 USS Enterprise
  • CVN-78 Gerald R. Ford's primary hull structure reached 100 percent completion
  • Received a $60.8 million modification to a previously awarded construction preparation contract for purchase of materials in support of CVN-79 John F. Kennedy construction

Exhibit B: Reconciliations

We make reference to "segment operating income," "segment operating margin," "pension-adjusted operating income," "pension-adjusted operating margin," "pension-adjusted net earnings," and "pension-adjusted diluted earnings per share." 

Segment operating income is operating income before the FAS/CAS Adjustment and deferred state income taxes.

Segment operating margin is segment operating income as a percentage of total sales and service revenues.    

Pension-adjusted operating income is total operating income adjusted for the FAS/CAS Adjustment. 

Pension-adjusted operating margin is pension-adjusted operating income as a percentage of total sales and service revenues.

Pension-adjusted net earnings is net income adjusted for the tax effected FAS/CAS Adjustment. 

Pension-adjusted diluted earnings per share is pension-adjusted net earnings divided by the weighted-average diluted common shares outstanding. 

Segment operating income and segment operating margin are two of the key metrics we use to evaluate operating performance because they exclude items that do not affect segment performance. We believe pension-adjusted operating income, pension-adjusted operating margin, pension-adjusted net earnings and pension-adjusted diluted earnings per share are also useful metrics because they exclude non-operating items that we do not consider indicative of our core operating performance. Therefore, we believe it is appropriate to disclose these measures to help investors analyze our operating performance. However, these measures are not measures of financial performance under GAAP and may not be defined or calculated by other companies in the same manner.
