SWINDON, United Kingdom, July 30, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Sensata Technologies (NYSE: ST), a global industrial technology company and a leading provider of sensors, today announced financial results for its second quarter ended June 30, 2019.
Operating results for the second quarter of 2019 compared to the second quarter of 2018 are summarized below.
Revenue:
- Revenue was $883.7 million, a decrease of ($30.1) million, or (3.3%), compared to $913.9 million in the second quarter of 2018.
- Revenue declined 1.6% on an organic basis, which excludes the effects of the following:
- Foreign currency exchange rates - (1.0%) change versus the prior year period.
- Acquisitions and divestitures, net - (0.7%) change versus the prior year period.
Operating income:
- Operating income was $147.4 million (16.7% of revenue), a decrease of ($30.6) million or (17.2%) compared to $178.1 million (19.5% of revenue) in the second quarter of 2018.
- Adjusted operating income was $205.1 million (23.2% of revenue), a decrease of ($14.3) million or (6.5%) compared to $219.4 million (24.0% of revenue) in the second quarter of 2018.

- Adjusted earnings per share were $0.93, which were flat with adjusted earnings per share in the second quarter of 2018 despite a ($30.1) million decrease in revenue.
Changes in foreign currency exchange rates increased Sensata's adjusted earnings per share by $0.07 in the second quarter of 2019 compared to the prior year period. The net effect of acquisitions and divestitures reduced Sensata's adjusted earnings per share by ($0.06) in the second quarter of 2019 compared to the prior year period.
“Despite lower volume due to declining end markets, we maintained our adjusted EPS year-over-year, which demonstrates the resiliency of our business model in weaker market cycles and the positive effects of our capital deployment strategy," said Martha Sullivan, Chief Executive Officer of Sensata. "Our performance was driven by strong secular growth across all of our businesses, including an acceleration of content growth in automotive, which outgrew its end market by 650 basis points in the second quarter. As we look ahead this year, we expect our end markets will decline below the projections we contemplated in our most recent full year 2019 guidance, and are implementing additional initiatives to further align our costs with the lower volumes we are now anticipating."
"Looking beyond current end market conditions, we have identified long-term secular growth opportunities in these markets and we are making investments to drive future growth. During the quarter, we advanced our Electrification initiative by partnering with Lithium Balance to bring battery management subsystems to the industrial, material handling, and heavy vehicle & off road markets as well as complement our wireless battery management initiative in our automotive business.”
During the second quarter of 2019, Sensata repurchased approximately 379,000 shares of common stock for total consideration of $17.4 million. The Board of Directors has approved the repurchase of additional shares valued up to an aggregate of $500 million, which the Company expects to use over the next 12 to 24 months.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
We supplement the reporting of our financial information determined in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) with certain non-GAAP financial measures. We use these non-GAAP financial measures internally to make operating and strategic decisions, including the preparation of our annual operating plan, evaluation of our overall business performance, and as a factor in determining compensation for certain employees. We believe presenting non-GAAP financial measures is useful for period-over-period comparisons of underlying business trends and our ongoing business performance. We also believe presenting these non-GAAP measures provides additional transparency into how management evaluates the business.
Non-GAAP financial measures should be considered as supplemental in nature and are not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the related financial information prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. In addition, our non-GAAP financial measures may not be the same as, or comparable to, similar non-GAAP measures presented by other companies.
The non-GAAP financial measures referenced by Sensata in this release include: adjusted net income, adjusted earnings per share (“EPS”), adjusted operating income, adjusted operating margin, free cash flow, organic revenue growth, and segment profit margin measured on a constant currency basis. We also refer to changes in certain non-GAAP measures, usually reported either as a percentage or number of basis points, between two periods and measured on either a reported, constant currency, or an organic basis, the latter of which excludes the net impact of acquisitions and divestitures for the 12-month period following the respective transaction date(s) and the effect of foreign currency exchange rate differences between the comparative periods. Such changes are also considered non-GAAP measures.
Adjusted net income is defined as net income, determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP, excluding certain non-GAAP adjustments which are described in the accompanying reconciliation tables. Adjusted EPS is calculated by dividing adjusted net income by the number of diluted weighted-average ordinary shares outstanding in the period. We believe that these measures are useful to investors and management in understanding our ongoing operations and in analysis of ongoing operating trends.
Adjusted operating income is defined as operating income, determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP, excluding certain non-GAAP adjustments which are described in the accompanying reconciliation tables. Adjusted operating margin is calculated by dividing adjusted operating income by net revenue. We believe that these measures are useful to investors and management in understanding our ongoing operations and in analysis of ongoing operating trends.
Free cash flow is defined as net cash provided by operating activities, determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP, less additions to property, plant and equipment and capitalized software. We believe that this measure is useful to investors and management as a measure of cash generated by business operations that will be used to repay scheduled debt maturities and can be used to fund acquisitions, repurchase ordinary shares, or for the repayment of debt obligations.
Organic revenue growth is defined as the reported percentage change in net revenue, calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP, excluding the period-over-period impact of foreign exchange rate differences as well as the net impact of acquisitions and divestitures for the 12-month period following the respective transaction date(s). We believe that this measure is useful to investors and management in understanding our ongoing operations and in analysis of ongoing operating trends.
