Full Year 2012 Financial Results - From Continuing Operations
-
TriMas reported 2012 record net sales from continuing operations of$1.273 billion , an increase of 17.4% as compared to$1.084 billion in 2011. During 2012, net sales increased in five of the six reportable segments, primarily as a result of additional sales from bolt-on acquisitions, market share gains, new product introductions and geographic expansion as compared to 2011. These sales increases were partially offset by approximately$5.3 million of unfavorable currency exchange, primarily in our Packaging, Energy and Cequent Asia Pacific segments. -
The Company reported 2012 operating profit of
$127.9 million , compared to an operating profit of$131.3 million for 2011. Excluding the impact of Special Items, operating profit would have been$138.6 million in 2012. In 2012, operating profit margin (excluding Special Items) was 10.9%, as the favorable impact of ongoing productivity initiatives and operating leverage gained on higher sales levels was offset by a less favorable product sales mix, costs related to recent acquisitions including purchase accounting-related adjustments and higher costs associated with our global growth initiatives. -
Excluding noncontrolling interests related to
Arminak & Associates , 2012 income from continuing operations was$33.9 million , or$0.89 per diluted share, compared to income from continuing operations of$50.8 million , or$1.46 per diluted share, during 2011. Excluding the impact of Special Items, primarily related to debt extinguishment costs incurred in connection with the debt refinancing in fourth quarter 2012, and business and tax restructuring items, 2012 income from continuing operations would have been$69.7 million or$1.84 per share, an increase of 16.5% as compared to 2011, and at the high end of the Company's previously provided 2012 diluted earnings per share range of$1.75 to $1.85 . -
The Company reported Free Cash Flow (defined as
Cash Flow from Operating Activities less Capital Expenditures) for 2012 of$27.1 million , as compared to$63.2 million in 2011, as the Company increased its investment in growth initiatives. -
During 2012, the Company invested

Financial Position
Business Segment Results - From Continuing Operations(2)
Packaging - (Consists of
Fourth quarter net sales increased 54.0% as compared to the year ago
period primarily as a result of the Arminak acquisition in
Energy - (Consists of Lamons including South Texas Bolt & Fitting and CIFAL)
Fourth quarter and full year 2012 net sales increased 14.7% and 14.0%,
respectively, compared to the year ago periods, due to continued market
share gains within the highly-engineered bolt product line, additional
sales generated by newer branches, the acquisition of CIFAL in
Aerospace & Defense - (Consists of
Net sales for the fourth quarter increased 11.7% as compared to the year
ago period, primarily due to improved demand for blind bolts and
temporary fasteners from aerospace distribution customers resulting from
new programs with airplane frame manufacturers, the recent introduction
of new products and sales growth in
Engineered Components - (Consists of Arrow Engine and Norris Cylinder)
Fourth quarter net sales declined 5.5% as compared to the year ago period, due to decreased demand for industrial cylinders and lower sales of engines, gas compression products and other well-site content resulting from a reduced number of natural gas well completions as compared to fourth quarter 2011. Fourth quarter 2012 operating profit and the related margin percentage declined compared to the prior year period due to lower sales levels, decreased absorption of fixed costs and a less favorable product sales mix. Full year 2012 net sales increased 14.1% due to improved demand for engines, gas compression products and other well site content related to increased levels of oil drilling activity as compared to 2011, and the successful introduction of additional products for the well-site. Sales of industrial cylinders also increased primarily due to continued market share gains. Full year 2012 operating profit increased slightly, while the related margin percentage declined compared to the prior year period primarily due to higher sales levels and continued productivity efforts, negatively impacted by a less favorable product sales mix and lower fixed cost absorption in the engine business and higher selling, general and administrative expenses in support of increased sales levels and growth projects. The Company continues to develop new products and expand its international sales efforts.
Cequent Asia Pacific - (Consists of Cequent operations
in
Net sales for fourth quarter and full year 2012 increased 27.6% and
36.3%, respectively, compared to the year ago periods, due to new
business awards in
Cequent Americas - (Consists of
Net sales for fourth quarter and full year 2012 increased 3.7% and 4.3%,
respectively, compared to the year ago periods, resulting primarily from
increased sales within the original equipment, industrial, agricultural
and aftermarket channels. Sales increases were largely the result of new
product introductions and continued market share gains. Fourth quarter
operating profit and related margin percentage improved, excluding
Special Items(1) related to the costs incurred associated
with the relocation of certain production to a lower cost country,
compared to fourth quarter 2011 due to increased sales levels and
improved sourcing and productivity initiatives, partially offset by
higher commodity costs and increased selling, general and administrative
expenses in support of growth initiatives. Full year operating profit
improved and the related margin percentage remained flat, excluding
Special Items(1), due to increased sales levels and improved
sourcing and productivity initiatives, which were partially offset by
higher commodity costs, a less favorable product sales mix and increased
selling, general and administrative expenses in support of growth
initiatives, including acquisitions. The Company continues to reduce
fixed costs and leverage Cequent's strong brand positions and new
products for increased market share in
2013 Outlook
The Company is estimating that 2013 sales will increase 6% to 8%
compared to 2012. The Company expects full-year 2013 diluted earnings
per share from continuing operations to be between
