PART I
ITEM 1. | NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) |
NOTE A - BASIS OF PRESENTATION OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of The Gorman-Rupp Company (the “Company” or “Gorman-Rupp”) and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. In the opinion of management of the Company, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Certain amounts for 2015 have been reclassified to conform to the 2016 presentation. Operating results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 20152016 are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2015.2016. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014,2015, from which related information herein has been derived.
NOTE B - RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
The Company considers the applicability and impact of all Accounting Standard Updates (“ASUs”). ASUs not listed below were assessed and determined to be either not applicable or are expected to have minimal impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02,“Leases (Topic 842),” which requires lessees to recognize assets and liabilities on the balance sheet for the rights and obligations created by all leases with a term of more than one year. Accounting by lessors will remain similar to existing generally accepted accounting principles. The guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2018. The Company currently does not expect the adoption of ASU 2016-02 to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.
In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-11, “Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory (Topic 330 ),”which revises the measurement of inventory at the lower of cost or market. Currently, market could be replacement cost, net realizable value, or net realizable value less an approximate normal profit margin. In accordance with ASU 2015-11, an entity will measure inventory at the lower of cost and net realizable value which is defined as the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal and transportation. The amendment does not apply to inventory that is measured using last-in, first out (LIFO). The guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2016; however, early adoption is permitted. The Company currently does not expect the adoption of ASU 2015-11 to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.
In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards BoardFASB issued ASU 2014-09, “Revenue“Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606),” which supersedes most current revenue recognition guidance, including industry-specific guidance, and requires entities to recognize revenue in a way that depicts the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. The original standard wasguidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2016; however, in July 2015, the FASB approved a one-year deferral of this standard, with a new effective date for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017. The Company is currently does not expectevaluating the impact the adoption of ASU 2014-09 towill have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.statements and related disclosures. The Company has not yet selected a transition method nor has it determined the effect of the standard on its ongoing financial reporting.
NOTE C - INVENTORIES
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market. The costs for approximately 73%71% of inventories at September 30, 20152016 and 75%73% of inventories at December 31, 20142015 are determined using the last-in, first-out (LIFO) method, with the remainder determined using the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method applied on a consistent basis. An annualactual valuation of inventory under the LIFO method is made at the end of each year based on the inventory levels and costs at that time. Interim LIFO calculations are based on management’s estimate of expected year-end inventory levels and costs and are subject to the final year-end LIFO inventory valuation.
The major components of inventories are as follows (net of LIFO reserves of $59.7 million and $57.9 million at September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively):

ITEM 2. | MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS |
Executive Overview and Outlook
The Gorman-Rupp Company is a leading designer, manufacturer and international marketer of pumps and pump systems for use in diverse water, wastewater, construction, dewatering, industrial, petroleum, original equipment, agriculture, fire protection, heating, ventilating and air conditioning (HVAC), military and other liquid-handling applications. The Company attributes its success to long-term product quality, applications and performance combined with timely delivery and service, and continually develops initiatives to improve performance in these key areas.
PART I – CONTINUED
Gorman-Rupp actively pursues growth opportunities through organic growth, international business expansion and acquisitions.
We continually invest in training for our employees, in new product development and in modern manufacturing equipment, technology and facilities all designed to increase production efficiency and capacity and drive growth by delivering innovative solutions to our customers. We believe that the diversity of our markets is a major contributor to the generally stable financial growth we have produced over the past 80 plus years.
Due to recent increased retirements and a related surge in lump sum pension payments, the Company recorded a U.S. GAAP-required $1.9 million non-cash pension settlement charge during the third quarter of 2015 relating to its defined benefit pension plan of which $1.3 million related to cost of products sold and $570,000 related to selling, general and administrative expenses. For the nine months ending September 30, 2015, the Company has recorded a $3.3 million non-cash pension settlement charge of which $2.3 million related to cost of products sold and $1.0 million related to selling, general and administrative expenses. We expect that a similar non-cash charge of approximately $1.0 million will occur during the fourth quarter of this year as additional expected retirements and related lump sum payments are made. The rate of retirements was less in 2014 and in the first quarter of 2015 and settlement charges were not required in those periods.
Net sales during the third quarter of 2015 were $104.2 million compared to a record $110.2 million during the third quarter of 2014, a decrease of 5.4%. Gross profit was $23.3 million for the third quarter of 2015, resulting in gross margin of 22.4% compared to 25.5% for the same period in 2014. Operating income was $8.9 million, resulting in operating margin of 8.6% for the third quarter of 2015 compared to an operating margin of 12.7% for the same period in 2014. Net income was $5.9 million during the third quarter of 2015 compared to $9.4 million in the third quarter of 2014 and earnings per share were $0.22 and $0.36 for the respective periods. The quarter’s gross profit and operating income margin declines were due principally to the sales volume decreases from 2014 to 2015, sales mix changes due to increased shipments and percentages of shipments of lower margin engine and motor equipped systems, and the non-cash pension settlement charge described above of 120 and 180 basis points, respectively. The non-cash pension settlement charge negatively impacted current quarter earnings per share by $0.05 per share.
Net sales during the first nine months of 2015 were $307.4 million compared to a record $330.0 million during the same period last year, a decrease of 6.8%. Gross profit was $71.4 million for the first nine months of 2015, resulting in gross margin of 23.2% compared to 25.0% for the same period in 2014. Operating income was $29.4 million, resulting in operating margin of 9.6% for the first nine months of 2015 compared to an operating margin of 12.8% for the same period in 2014. Net income was $19.8 million during the first nine months of 2015 compared to a record $28.3 million in the same period last year and earnings per share were $0.75 and $1.08 for the respective periods. The nine months gross profit and operating income margin declines were due principally to the sales volume decreases from the records in 2014, sales mix changes due to increased shipments and percentages of shipments of lower margin engine and motor equipped systems, and the non-cash pension settlement charge described above of 80 and 110 basis points, respectively. The non-cash pension settlement charge and currency translation negatively impacted the first nine months of 2015 earnings per share by $0.09 and $0.02 per share, respectively.
The Company’s backlog of orders was $138.8 million at September 30, 2015 compared to $170.0 million a year ago and $160.7 million at December 31, 2014. The decrease in backlog from a year ago is due primarily to approximately $37.5 million of shipments related to the PCCP project in the last twelve months. Although not yet enough to offset our order slowness compared to 2014, we did experience our highest amount of incoming orders of the last four quarters in the current quarter ended September 30, 2015. Approximately $17.8 million of orders related to the PCCP project remain in the September 30, 2015 backlog total. Approximately $8.1 million of the remaining PCCP project orders are scheduled to ship during the fourth quarter of 2015 and $9.7 million of related installation services are scheduled during the first three quarters of 2016.
The Company places a strong emphasis on cash flow generation and having excellent liquidity and financial flexibility. This focus has afforded us the continuing ability to continually reward shareholders with increased dividends, strategically reinvest our cash resources and preserve a strong balance sheet to position us for future growthacquisition and acquisitionproduct development opportunities. The Company had no bank debt as of September 30, 2016.
Net capital expendituressales during the third quarter were $91.3 million compared to $104.2 million during the third quarter of 2015, a decrease of 12.4% or $12.9 million. Excluding sales from the New Orleans Permanent Canal Closures & Pumps (“PCCP”) project of $1.6 million in the third quarter of 2016 and $9.8 million for the same period in 2015, net sales during the quarter decreased 5.0%. Domestic sales decreased 19.3% or $13.9 million while international sales increased 3.3% or $1.0 million compared to the same period in 2015. Gross profit was $22.7 million for the third quarter of 2016, resulting in gross margin of 24.8%, compared to gross profit of $23.3 million and gross margin of 22.4% for the same period in 2015. The quarter’s gross profit margin increase was due principally to favorable sales mix changes and a non-cash pension settlement charge of 120 basis points in the third quarter of 2015 which did not recur in the same period this year, partially offset by lower leverage due to sales volume decreases. Operating income was $9.9 million, resulting in operating margin of 10.8% for the third quarter of 2016, compared to operating income of $8.9 million and operating margin of 8.6% for the same period in 2015. The operating margin improvement was largely driven by a non-cash pension settlement charge totaling 180 basis points in third quarter of 2015 which did not recur in the same period this year and a gain on the sale of property, plant and equipment in the third quarter of 2016 of 110 basis points, offset by lower operating leverage due to sales volume decreases. Net income was $6.9 million during the third quarter of 2016 compared to $5.9 million in the third quarter of 2015 and earnings per share were $0.27 and $0.22 for the respective periods. Gain on the sale of property, plant and equipment increased the third quarter of 2016 earnings by $0.03 per share. Conversely, the non-cash pension settlement charge in the third quarter of 2015 reduced earnings by $0.05 per share.
Net sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 were $287.9 million compared to $307.4 million during the same period in 2015, a decrease of 6.3% or $19.5 million. Excluding sales from the PCCP project of $9.5 million in the first nine months of 2016 and $30.3 million in the first nine months of 2015, net sales for the first nine months increased 0.5%. Domestic sales decreased 8.1% or $16.7 million and international sales decreased 2.8% or $2.8 million. Of the total decrease in net sales in the first nine months of 2016, approximately $0.9 million was due to unfavorable foreign currency translation. Gross profit was $68.8 million for the first nine months of 2016, resulting in gross margin of 23.9%, compared to gross profit of $71.4 million and gross margin of 23.2% for the same period in 2015. The gross profit margin increase was due principally to a non-cash pension settlement charge of 80 basis points in the first nine months of 2015 which did not recur in the same period this year. Operating income was $28.6 million, resulting in operating margin of $6.69.9% for the first nine months of 2016, compared to operating income of $29.4 million consisted primarilyand operating margin of machinery9.6% for the same period in 2015. The operating margin improvement also was largely driven by a non-cash pension settlement charge totaling 110 basis points in the first nine months of 2015 which did not recur in the same period this year and a gain on the sale of property, plant and equipment a new operations facilityof 30 basis points in Ireland,the first nine months of 2016, offset by lower operating leverage due to sales volume decreases. Net income was $19.8 million during the first nine months of both 2016 and other building improvements. The Company also completed the acquisition of Hydro+ SA2015 and Hydro+ Rental SPRL (collectively the “Hydro companies”) for $3.4 million. Capital expendituresearnings per share were $0.76 and $0.75 for the fourth quarterrespective periods. Gain on the sale of property, plant and equipment increased the first nine months of 2016 earnings by $0.03 per share. Conversely, the non-cash pension settlement charge reduced the first nine months of 2015 are currently estimated to be in the range of $2 to $4 million and are expected to be financed through internally-generated funds.earnings by $0.09 per share.

At itsThe Company’s backlog of orders was $102.8 million at September 30, 2016 compared to $138.8 million at September 30, 2015 and $117.1 million at December 31, 2015. Excluding the PCCP project in 2015 and 2016, the backlog at September 30, 2016 was down 16.0% as compared to September 30, 2015. In addition to the impact of PCCP, backlog has been impacted by lower orders in the petroleum and fire protection markets. Encouragingly, the municipal wastewater sector appears to be gaining momentum as incoming orders have increased as compared to the first nine months of 2015. Approximately $1.2 million of orders related to the PCCP project remain in the September 30, 2016 backlog total and are expected to ship by the end of the fourth quarter of 2016.
On October 22, 2015 meeting,27, 2016, the Board of Directors of the Company declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.105$0.115 per share on the common stock of the Company, payable December 10, 2015,9, 2016, to shareholders of record November 13, 2015. The cash dividend represents a 5.0% increase over15, 2016. This will mark the dividend paid in the previous quarter. This marks the 263rd267th consecutive quarterly dividend paid by The Gorman-Rupp Company and the 43rd44th consecutive year of increased dividends paid to its shareholders. These consecutive years place Gorman-Rupp in the top 50 of all U.S. public companies with respect to number of consecutive years of increased dividend payments. The dividend yield at September 30, 2016 was 1.6%.
The Company currently expects to continue its exceptional history of paying regular quarterly dividends and increased annual dividends. However, any future dividends will be reviewed individually and declared by our Board of Directors at its discretion, dependent uponon our assessment of the Company’s financial condition and business outlook at the applicable time.
Outlook
Domestic and foreign uncertainties, including turmoil related to the production and price of oil, foreign currency translation impacts and low commodity prices, continued to make the first nine months of 2016 challenging. The Company is pleased with Patterson Pump Company’s performance onfourth quarter of most years has been seasonally slower and the PCCP project for which shipments are generally complete. As periods of the large flood control pumps for New Orleans began in 2014,economic and it has been a larger contributor to net sales this year. When completed, this flood control project is anticipated to be one of the largest such projects in the world. Also, 2015 results will be the first full fiscal year that includes the operations of Bayou City Pump Company, which we acquired in June 2014 and adds market diversity for our petroleum handling products and services. We also are looking forward to the opportunities resulting from the acquisition of the Hydro companies in Belgium and blending their European pump and pump rental expertise with the Company’s 80-plus years of international design and manufacture of centrifugal pumps and pumping systems and its broad international distribution network.
Outlook
The business environment in most of the markets we serve has improved somewhat since the economic downturn in 2008 and 2009 as the U.S. economy has steadily recovered from the recession. However, the economic impacts of the rapid decline in oil and natural gas prices and related production during the last twelve months have had a substantial negative affect on our construction, rental and industrial pumps markets, and have indirectly impacted most of our other markets. Additionally, the related strength of the U.S. dollar has worked against our export sales, and lower commodity prices combined with unseasonably wet weather conditions in most parts of the United States negatively impacted agricultural sales. Despite these challenges,volatility persist, the Company expects that fireremains focused on operational efficiencies and municipal pump sales will continue to improve graduallymanage expenses closely as we do not yet see stable sales growth occurring in the near future. Our strong balance sheet provides us with the flexibility to continue to evaluate acquisition opportunities and our portion of the New Orleans PCCP flood control project will remain on schedule for the remainder of this year and 2016. Whilenew product development that we expect will help add value to our operations over the near-term, including most of 2016, to be similarly challenging, our outlook for the long-term is positive based on our proven track record of providing industry leading high quality products, a long-standing commitment to customer service and a very strong and flexible balance sheet.longer-term.
Generally we believe that the Company is well positioned to grow organically at historicallya reasonably comparable sales growth ratespace and operating marginsmargin over the long term by expanding our customer base, both domestically and globally, and through new product offerings. We expect that the well-publicized increasing need for water and wastewater infrastructure rehabilitation within the United States, and even greatersimilar needs internationally, especiallyincluding in emerging economies, along with increasing demand for pumps and pump systems for industrial and agricultural applications, will provide excellentcontinuing growth opportunities for Gorman-Rupp in the future.
