SHELTON, CT. (October 26, 2021) – Hubbell Incorporated (NYSE:HUBB) today reported operating results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2021.

"Hubbell successfully navigated through a dynamic operating environment in the third quarter," said Gerben Bakker, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer. "While material inflation, supply chain disruptions, and increased freight and logistics costs caused operational headwinds in the quarter, the Company actively mitigated through price increases and other productivity initiatives. Price realization of +7% in the third quarter represented a significant acceleration from first half levels, and prior restructuring and organizational efficiency initiatives continue to deliver ongoing cost savings."

Mr. Bakker continued, "Customer demand for reliable and efficient critical infrastructure solutions remained strong across our Utility and Electrical businesses, driving another quarter of significant orders growth. While unit volumes were down slightly year-over-year in the quarter due to supply chain constraints, above average backlog visibility gives us confidence in a strong finish to the full year."

"In Utility Solutions, demand strength was broad-based across power, gas and water utility customers for T&D components, as well as communications & controls. Although supply chain disruptions limited third quarter shipments, secular trends including grid modernization, hardening of aging infrastructure, and the renewable energy transition are expected to continue driving attractive growth over the long term. In Electrical Solutions, sales and orders growth was led by strong demand for connectors, grounding and wiring products across light industrial verticals, including communications, solar, and industrial manufacturing markets. This strength was partially offset by softness in commercial and residential lighting markets."

Mr. Bakker concluded, "We are pleased with the results of the third quarter, as our employees across the enterprise executed with urgency and efficiency to operate with discipline while serving our customers with best-in-class quality and reliability. Looking ahead, we are confident in our ability to deliver for our customers and shareholders as we work to fulfill strong demand while continuing to implement price and productivity initiatives."

Certain terms used in this release, including "Net debt", "Free Cash Flow", "Organic net sales", "Organic growth", "Restructuring-related costs", "EBITDA", and certain "adjusted" measures, are defined under the section entitled "Non-GAAP Definitions." See page 8 for more information.

THIRD QUARTER FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS

The comments and year-over-year comparisons in this segment review are based on third quarter results in 2021 and 2020.

Electrical Solutions segment net sales in the third quarter of 2021 increased 11% to $612 million compared to $551 million reported in the third quarter of 2020. Organic sales increased 9% in the quarter while acquisitions contributed 1% and foreign exchange contributed 1%. Operating income was $72.0 million, or 11.8% of net sales, compared to $65.9 million, or 12.0% of net sales in the same period of 2020. Adjusted operating income was $76.1 million, or 12.4% of net sales, in the third quarter of 2021 as compared to $70.1 million, or 12.7% of net sales in the same period of the prior year. Changes in adjusted operating profit and operating margin were driven primarily by strong price realization, modest volume growth, and restructuring benefits, offset by material inflation and higher logistics and supply chain costs.

Utility Solutions segment net sales in the third quarter of 2021 increased 8% to $602 million compared to $558 million reported in the third quarter of 2020. Organic sales increased 2% in the quarter, with acquisitions, net of dispositions, contributing approximately 6% growth. Total Utility T&D Components sales increased approximately 10% and Utility Communications and Controls sales increased by approximately 4%. Operating income was $83 million, or 13.8% of net sales, in the third quarter of 2021 as compared to $97 million, or 17.4% of net sales in the same period of 2020. Adjusted operating income was $98 million, or 16.3% of net sales, in the third quarter of 2021 as compared to $111 million, or 20.0% of net sales in the same period of the prior year. Decreases in adjusted operating profit and adjusted operating margin were primarily due to lower volumes, material inflation, and higher logistics and supply chain costs, partially offset by strong price realization and restructuring benefits.

Adjusted third quarter 2021 results exclude $0.26 of amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets. Adjusted third quarter 2020 results exclude $0.25 of amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets as well as $0.09 due to a pension settlement charge.

Net cash provided by operating activities was $98 million in the third quarter of 2021 versus $151.9 million in the comparable period of 2020. Free cash flow was $70 million in the third quarter of 2021 versus $135.2 million reported in the comparable period of 2020 as the Company built working capital to secure materials and components to serve strong customer demand.

SUMMARY & OUTLOOK

For the full year 2021, Hubbell anticipates sales growth of 12-13%. This expectation is comprised of 8-9% organic growth, including 5% price realization, bolstered by approximately 3-4% growth from acquisitions and a modest tailwind from foreign exchange.

Hubbell anticipates 2021 earnings per diluted share in the range of $6.85-$7.05 and anticipates adjusted diluted earnings per share ("Adjusted EPS") in the range of $8.30-$8.50. Adjusted EPS excludes amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets, which the Company expects to be approximately $1.15 for the full year. Adjusted EPS also excludes a loss on the early extinguishment of debt from the 2022 Notes that were redeemed by the Company on April 2, 2021, as well as a loss recognized on the disposal of a business during the second quarter of 2021. The Company believes Adjusted EPS is a useful measure of underlying performance in light of our acquisition strategy and core operations.

The earnings per share and adjusted earnings per share ranges are based on an adjusted tax rate of approximately 21% and include approximately $0.20-$0.25 per share of anticipated restructuring and related investment. The ranges also incorporate the impact of acquisitions, which we anticipate adding approximately $0.20 to full year adjusted earnings. The Company expects full year 2021 free cash flow conversion at approximately 100% of adjusted net income.

NON-GAAP DEFINITIONS

References to "adjusted" operating measures exclude the impact of certain costs, gains or losses. Management believes these adjusted operating measures provide useful information regarding our underlying performance from period to period and an understanding of our results of operations without regard to items we do not consider a component of our core operating performance. Adjusted operating measures are non-GAAP measures, and include adjusted operating income, adjusted operating margin, adjusted net income, adjusted net income available to common shareholders, adjusted net income attributable to Hubbell, adjusted earnings per diluted share, and adjusted EBITDA. These non-GAAP measures exclude, where applicable:

Amortization of all intangible assets associated with our business acquisitions, including inventory step-up amortization associated with those acquisitions. The intangible assets associated with our business acquisitions arise from the allocation of the purchase price using the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification 805, "Business Combinations." These assets consist primarily of customer relationships, developed technology, trademarks and tradenames, and patents, as reported in Note 6—Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, under the heading "Total Definite-Lived Intangibles," within the Company's audited consolidated financial statements set forth in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for Fiscal Year Ended December 31, 2020. The Company excludes these non-cash expenses because we believe it (i) enhances management's and investors' ability to analyze underlying business performance, (ii) facilitates comparisons of our financial results over multiple periods, and (iii) provides more relevant comparisons of our results with the results of other companies as the amortization expense associated with these assets may fluctuate significantly from period to period based on the timing, size, nature, and number of acquisitions. Although we exclude amortization of these acquired intangible assets and inventory step-up from our non-GAAP results, we believe that it is important for investors to understand that revenue generated, in part, from such intangibles is included within revenue in determining adjusted net income attributable to Hubbell Incorporated.
Losses recognized in the second quarter of 2021 from the early extinguishment of long-term debt and the disposition of a business. The Company excludes these losses because we believe it enhances management's and investors' ability to analyze underlying business performance and facilitates comparisons of our financial results over multiple periods.
Pension charges including a settlement charge in the third quarter of 2020.
Income tax effects of the above adjustments which are calculated using the statutory tax rate, taking into consideration the nature of the item and the relevant taxing jurisdiction, unless otherwise noted.

Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP measure that excludes the items noted above and also excludes the Other income (expense), net, Interest expense, net, and Provision for income taxes captions of the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Income, as well as depreciation and amortization expense.

Net debt (defined as total debt less cash and investments) to total capital is a non-GAAP measure that we believe is a useful measure for evaluating the Company's financial leverage and the ability to meet its funding needs.

Free cash flow is a non-GAAP measure that we believe provides useful information regarding the Company's ability to generate cash without reliance on external financing. In addition, management uses free cash flow to evaluate the resources available for investments in the business, strategic acquisitions and further strengthening the balance sheet.

In connection with our restructuring and related actions we have incurred restructuring costs as defined by U.S. GAAP, which are primarily severance and employee benefits, asset impairments, accelerated depreciation, as well as facility closure, contract termination and certain pension costs that are directly related to restructuring actions. We also incur restructuring-related costs, which are costs associated with our business transformation initiatives, including the consolidation of back-office functions and streamlining our processes, and certain other costs and gains associated with restructuring actions. We refer to these costs on a combined basis as "restructuring and related costs", which is a non-GAAP measure.

Organic net sales, a non-GAAP measure, represent net sales according to U.S. GAAP, less net sales from acquisitions and divestitures during the first twelve months of ownership or divestiture, respectively, less the effect of fluctuations in net sales from foreign currency exchange. The period-over-period effect of fluctuations in net sales from foreign currency exchange is calculated as the difference between local currency net sales of the prior period translated at the current period exchange rate as compared to the same local currency net sales translated at the prior period exchange rate. We believe this measure provides management and investors with a more complete understanding of underlying operating results and trends of established, ongoing operations by excluding the effect of acquisitions, dispositions and foreign currency, as these activities can obscure underlying trends. When comparing net sales growth between periods excluding the effects of acquisitions, business dispositions and currency exchange rates, those effects are different when comparing results for different periods. For example, because net sales from acquisitions are considered inorganic from the date we complete an acquisition through the end of the first year following the acquisition, net sales from such acquisition are reflected as organic net sales thereafter.

There are limitations to the use of non-GAAP measures. Non-GAAP measures do not present complete financial results. We compensate for this limitation by providing a reconciliation between our non-GAAP financial measures and the respective most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. Because non-GAAP financial measures are not standardized, it may not be possible to compare these financial measures with other companies' non-GAAP financial measures having the same or similar names. These financial measures should not be considered in isolation from, as substitutes for, or alternative measures of, reported GAAP financial results, and should be viewed in conjunction with the most comparable GAAP financial measures and the provided reconciliations thereto. We believe, however, that these non-GAAP financial measures, when viewed together with our GAAP results and related reconciliations, provide a more complete understanding of our business. We strongly encourage investors to review our consolidated financial statements and publicly filed reports in their entirety and not rely on any single financial measure.

Reconciliations of each of these non-GAAP measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measure can be found in the tables below.

RECAST SEGMENT INFORMATION

As previously disclosed, beginning in the first quarter of 2021, the Company is reporting the results of its Gas Connectors and Accessories business as part of the Utility Solutions segment. This realignment has no impact on the Company's historical consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows. The historical segment information has been recast to conform to the new reporting structure. The recast financial information does not represent a restatement of previously issued financial statements.
