Sign InLATROBE, Pa., April 28, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Kennametal Inc. (NYSE: KMT) today reported fiscal 2011 third quarter earnings per diluted share (EPS) of $0.77 compared with prior year quarter reported EPS of $0.12. Absent restructuring and related charges, adjusted EPS for the current quarter increased 113% to $0.83 from the prior year quarter adjusted EPS of $0.39.
Carlos Cardoso, Kennametal's Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer said, "March quarter results continue to demonstrate that our global team is successfully executing our established strategies. We realized organic sales growth of 25 percent year-over-year, despite strong comparisons from the prior year. This growth reflected higher customer demand in both our served end markets as well as geographic regions. Even at a sales level that is lower than prior peak, we achieved a record operating margin for the March quarter. In addition, we again increased our guidance for sales and earnings per share for the current fiscal year. We continue to outperform the forecasted industrial production rate and expect to maintain our strong operating leverage."
Cardoso added, "Our long-term strategies remain consistent -- we continue to balance our served end markets, business mix and geographic presence. Kennametal is a 'Breakaway' company that has demonstrated its ability to be profitable throughout the economic cycle."
Reconciliations of all non-GAAP financial measures are set forth in the attached tables, and the corresponding descriptions are contained in our report on Form 8-K to which this release is attached.

Fiscal 2011 Year-to-Date Key Developments
Outlook
Global economic conditions and worldwide industrial production continues to remain positive. As such, Kennametal expects its fiscal 2011 organic sales growth to be 24 percent to 25 percent. This is in line with our goal of growing at least two times the rate of increase in global industrial production.
The company expects EPS for fiscal 2011 to be in the range of $2.75 to $2.85 per share, excluding charges related to previously announced restructuring programs, increased from the previous range of $2.50 to $2.65 per share, excluding charges related to restructuring.
Cash flow from operations is expected to be in the range of $255 million to $265 million for fiscal 2011 as compared to the previous range of $260 million to $280 million. Capital expenditures are expected to be approximately $80 million which is unchanged from the previous guidance. The range of free operating cash flow is expected to be $175 million to $185 million verses the previous guidance of $180 million to $200 million.
Dividend Declared

Forward-looking statements are statements that do not relate strictly to historical or current facts. For example, statements about Kennametal's outlook for earnings, sales volumes, and cash flow for fiscal year 2011 and our expectations regarding future growth and financial performance are forward-looking statements. These statements are based on current estimates that involve inherent risks and uncertainties.

There are a number of factors that could cause our actual results to differ from those indicated in the forward-looking statements. They include: prolonged economic recession; restructuring and related actions (including associated costs and anticipated benefits); availability and cost of the raw materials we use to manufacture our products; our foreign operations and international markets, such as currency exchange rates, different regulatory environments, trade barriers, exchange controls, and social and political instability; changes in the regulatory environment in which we operate, including environmental, health and safety regulations; our ability to protect and defend our intellectual property; competition; our ability to retain our management and employees; demands on management resources; demand for and market acceptance of our products; integrating acquisitions and achieving the expected savings and synergies; business divestitures; implementation of environmental remediation matters; and successful completion of information systems upgrades, including our enterprise system software. Many of these risks are more fully described in Kennametal's latest annual report on Form 10-K and its other periodic filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

In addition to reported results under generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (GAAP), the following financial highlight tables include, where appropriate, a reconciliation of adjusted results including gross profit, operating expense, operating income, Industrial operating income and margin, Infrastructure operating income and margin, net income and diluted earnings per share, free operating cash flow and return on invested capital (which are non-GAAP financial measures), to the most directly comparable GAAP measures. For those adjustments that are presented 'net of tax', the tax effect of the adjustment can be derived by calculating the difference between the pre-tax and the post-tax adjustments presented. The tax effect on adjustments is calculated by preparing an overall tax calculation including the adjustments and then a tax calculation excluding the adjustments. The difference between these calculations results in the tax impact of the adjustments.
Management believes that investors should have available the same information that management uses to assess operating performance, determine compensation and assess the capital structure of the company. These non-GAAP measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the most comparable GAAP measures. Investors are cautioned that non-GAAP financial measures utilized by the company may not be comparable to non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. Reconciliations of all non-GAAP financial measures are set forth in the attached tables and descriptions of certain non-GAAP financial measures are contained in our report on Form 8-K to which this release is attached.
