Insights

Lennox’s Q2 results demonstrate robust financial health and positive forward momentum. The revenue of $1.45 billion reflects an 8% growth in core operations, which is impressive in a competitive market. With GAAP operating income rising by 15% to $320 million, the company's ability to manage costs despite inflationary pressures stands out. The increase in adjusted diluted EPS to $6.83, a rise of 11%, indicates effective cost management and pricing strategies. The raised EPS guidance for the full year to $19.50-$20.25 is bullish and suggests strong confidence in continued performance improvements. Investors should note the significant cash flow generation, with estimated free cash flow between $500 million and $600 million, indicating strong liquidity management and potential for shareholder returns through dividends or buybacks.

Lennox's strong performance in the Home Comfort Solutions and Business Climate Solutions segments is noteworthy. Home Comfort Solutions saw a revenue increase of 5%, driven by strategic pricing, which is important given the relatively neutral end markets. The Business Climate Solutions segment exhibited a robust 15% revenue growth, aided by acquisitions. However, the slight decrease in profit margins due to ramp-up costs at the new factory in Saltillo, Mexico, is something to monitor. This expansion is a long-term strategic investment aimed at bolstering production capabilities and although it comes with short-term costs, it’s likely to enhance future profitability and market position. The continued successful integration of AES and joint ventures with Samsung indicate strategic moves that not only diversify the product portfolio but also expand market reach.

Lennox’s investments in new technologies and facilities are pivotal for its long-term growth. The pilot units produced at the new Saltillo factory reflect the company's commitment to innovation in manufacturing processes. These investments, while impacting short-term margins, are expected to enhance operational efficiency and product quality. The strategic focus on energy-efficient climate-control solutions aligns well with global trends towards sustainability and regulatory pressures for reduced carbon emissions. Innovations stemming from the joint venture with Samsung, particularly in heat pump technology, position Lennox to capitalize on rising demand for green and energy-efficient solutions. This strategic direction not only meets consumer demand but also likely positions the company as a leader in the climate-control sector.

Q2 Highlights
(All comparisons are year-over-year, unless otherwise noted)
(Prior-year adjusted results and core revenue exclude European operations that were divested in the 4Q 2023)

  • Revenue $1.45 billion – Core revenue up 8%, including 2% growth from acquisitions
  • GAAP Operating Income $320 million – Adjusted segment profit up 13% to $319 million
  • GAAP diluted EPS $6.87 – Adjusted diluted EPS up 11% to $6.83
  • Raising 2024 EPS guidance range to $19.50-$20.25 from prior range of $19.00-$20.00

DALLAS, July 24, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Lennox (NYSE: LII), a leader in energy-efficient climate-control solutions, today reported second quarter financial results with $1.45 billion of revenue, a record $320 million of operating income and $6.87 GAAP diluted earnings per share.

Core revenue grew 8% to $1.45 billion. Adjusted segment profit rose 13% to $319 million. Adjusted segment margin was up 100 basis points to a record 21.9%. Adjusted diluted earnings per share rose 11% to $6.83.

"Our growth strategy and disciplined execution continues to yield impressive results," said Chief Executive Officer, Alok Maskara. "By leveraging our direct distribution network, industry-leading product portfolio, and heightened focus on customer experience, our team has successfully expanded share and margins. This strong performance gives us the confidence to raise our full-year EPS guidance."

"The smooth integration of AES, expanding heat pump penetration from our joint venture with Samsung, and opening our new commercial factory will continue to present long-term growth opportunities for Lennox," Maskara continued. "These investments underscore our commitment to growth acceleration and sustained value creation for our shareholders, customers, and employees."

The Home Comfort Solutions segment achieved revenue growth of 5%, primarily driven by continued pricing excellence. Sales volume also improved as industry destocking concluded midway through the quarter. The segment demonstrated strong margin expansion, which has been instrumental in offsetting the effects of inflation and the costs associated with ongoing investments. The team's focus on strategic pricing, resilient margins, and targeted investments has enabled the Home Comfort Solutions segment to deliver profitable growth despite relatively neutral end markets.

In the second quarter, the Business Climate Solutions segment extended its track record of segment profit growth with revenue growth of 15%, including 6% growth from acquisitions. Segment profit margins deteriorated slightly as we make the necessary investments to ramp up our new factory in Saltillo, Mexico. Progress on the new factory remains on track and we built our first complete pilot units in early July.  

SECOND QUARTER 2024 FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS 
(All comparisons are year-over-year, unless otherwise noted)

Revenue: $1.45 billion was up 3% and up 8% for core operations, with organic revenue up 6% driven by price and favorable sales volume.

Operating Income: $320 million, up 15%, with operating profit margin of 22.1%, up 230 basis points.

Adjusted Segment Profit: $319 million, up 13%, and adjusted segment profit margin of 21.9%, up 100 basis points. Profit growth was driven by $44 million of price/mix benefits, and $19 million in organic and inorganic sales volume. This was partially offset by inflation and new factory expenses, SG&A, and distribution investments.

Net Income: $246 million, or $6.87 per share, compared to $217 million, or $6.10 per share, in the prior-year quarter.

Adjusted Net Income: $244 million, or $6.83 per share, compared to $219 million, or $6.15 per share, in the prior-year quarter.

Cash: Operating cash flow was $184 million compared to $196 million in the prior-year quarter. Capital expenditures were $33 million compared to $50 million in the prior-year quarter. Total debt at the end of the second quarter was approximately $1.3 billion. Total cash, cash equivalents, and short-term investments were $58 million at the end of the quarter.

Home Comfort Solutions: Business segment revenue was $982 million, up 5%. Segment profit was $229 million, up 13%, and segment margin was 23.3%, up 170 basis points. Segment profit increased $26 million compared to the prior-year quarter. The increase was attributed to $42 million in price/mix benefits and an increase of $2 million in sales volume. This was partially offset by an $18 million impact from inflation and investments in distribution and selling. 

Building Climate Solutions: Business segment revenue was $469 million, up 15%. Organic revenue was $446 million, up 10%. Segment profit was $114 million, up $11 million or 11%, and segment margin decreased 100 basis points to 24.3%. This profit improvement was driven by a $17 million increase in organic and inorganic sales volume, partially offset by $6 million in ramp-up costs at the new factory and inflationary wage impacts.

Corporate and Other: Corporate expenses were $24 million, an improvement of $1 million versus the prior-year quarter adjusted amount.

FULL YEAR 2024 GUIDANCE
For full year 2024, we reaffirm revenue guidance of approximately 7%, with 2% of benefit from the AES acquisition.

Earnings per share revised range is $19.50 to $20.25 versus the prior range of $19.00 to $20.00.

Free Cash Flow is estimated to be within the range of $500 million to $600 million.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS & NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
The statements in this document that are not historical statements, including statements regarding the 2024 full-year outlook and expected consolidated and segment financial results, as well as financial targets for future years, are forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements are based on information currently available as well as management's assumptions and beliefs today. These statements are subject to numerous risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from the results expressed or implied by the statements, and investors should not place undue reliance on them. Risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from such statements include risks that the North American unitary HVAC and refrigeration markets perform worse than current assumptions. Additional risks include but are not limited to competition in the HVACR business; our ability to successfully develop and market new products or execute our business strategy; our ability to meet and anticipate customer demands; our ability to continue to license or enforce our intellectual property rights; our ability to attract, motivate, develop, and retain our employees, as well as labor relations problems; a decline in new construction activity and related demand for our products and services; the impact of weather on our business; the impact of higher raw material prices and significant supply interruptions; changes in environmental and climate-related legislation or government regulations or policies; changes in tax legislation; the impact of new or increased trade tariffs; warranty, intellectual property infringement, product liability and other claims; litigation risks; general economic conditions in the United States and abroad; extraordinary events beyond our control; foreign currency fluctuations and changes in local government regulation associated with our international operations; cyber attacks and other disruptions or misuse of information systems; our ability to successfully realize, complete and integrate acquisitions; and impairment of the value of our goodwill.

For information concerning these and other risks and uncertainties, see LII's publicly available filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. LII disclaims any intention or obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law.

A reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures appearing in this document to financial measures prepared in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) are included in the Annex to this document.

This document includes forward-looking statements regarding core revenue, segment profit, adjusted segment profit, adjusted net income, adjusted diluted earnings per share, free cash flow, and Debt to EBITDA, which are non-GAAP financial measures. These non-GAAP financial measures are derived by excluding certain amounts from the corresponding financial measures determined in accordance with GAAP. The determination of the amounts excluded is a matter of management judgment and depends upon, among other factors, the nature of the underlying expense or income amounts recognized in a given period and the high variability of certain amounts, such as unusual gains and losses, the ultimate outcome of pending litigation, fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, changes in environmental liabilities, the impact and timing of potential acquisitions and divestitures, future restructuring costs, and other structural changes or their probable significance. Core revenue, adjusted segment profit, and adjusted diluted earnings per share exclude net sales and profit/(loss) from our European portfolio, which was sold in 4Q 2023. We are unable to present a quantitative reconciliation of the aforementioned forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable forward-looking GAAP financial measures because such information is not available, and management cannot reliably predict the necessary components of such GAAP measures without unreasonable effort or expense. The unavailable information could have a significant impact on LII's full year GAAP financial results.

LENNOX INTERNATIONAL INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

Reconciliation to U.S. GAAP (Generally Accepted Accounting Principles) Measures

(Unaudited, in millions, except per share and ratio data)













Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures












To supplement the Company's consolidated financial statements and segment net sales and profit (loss) presented in accordance with U.S.
GAAP, additional non-GAAP financial measures are provided and reconciled in the following tables.  In addition to these non-GAAP
measures, the Company also provides rates of revenue change at constant currency on a consolidated and segment basis if different than the
reported  measures. The Company believes that these non-GAAP financial measures, when considered together with the GAAP financial
measures, provide information that is useful to investors in understanding period-over-period operating results and enhance the ability of
investors to analyze the Company's business trends and operating performance.
