CLEVELAND, April 29, 2021 -- Parker Hannifin Corporation (NYSE: PH), the global leader in motion and control technologies, today reported results for the fiscal 2021 third quarter ended March 31, 2021. Fiscal 2021 third quarter sales were $3.75 billion, compared with $3.70 billion in the third quarter of fiscal 2020. Net income was an all-time quarterly record at $471.6 million, an increase of 28% compared with $367.3 million in the prior year quarter. Fiscal 2021 third quarter earnings per share were also an all-time quarterly record at $3.59, an increase of 27% compared with $2.83 in the third quarter of fiscal 2020. Adjusted earnings per share increased 21% to $4.11, compared with adjusted earnings per share of $3.39 in the prior year quarter. Fiscal year-to-date cash flow from operations was a third quarter record at $1.88 billion, reaching 18.1% of sales, compared with $1.29 billion, or 12.3% of sales in the prior year period. A reconciliation of non-GAAP measures is included in the financial tables of this press release.
“In the third quarter, we delivered all-time quarterly records for net income, EPS and segment operating margins,” said Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, Tom Williams. "We also generated record year-to-date cash from operations and continued to accelerate the pay down of available debt, putting us in a very strong financial position. Our results reflect sustainable performance improvements across our business. These include strengthening our portfolio through the effective integration and accelerated synergies from our acquisitions. Broad-based execution of The Win Strategy™ continues to drive
improved profitability and cash flow. Order rates increased by 6% in the third quarter, reinforcing our view that demand is at a positive inflection point.”
In the fiscal 2021 third quarter, the company made debt repayments of $426 million, bringing the cumulative debt reduction to approximately $3.2 billion over the last 17 months. Also during the quarter, the company made share repurchases of $50 million under its 10b5-1 share repurchase program. As announced last week, Parker's Board of Directors declared an increase of 17% to the quarterly cash dividend, which extends its long-standing record of annual dividends per share paid to 65 consecutive fiscal years.
Segment Results
Diversified Industrial Segment: North American third quarter sales decreased 1% to $1.76 billion, and operating income was $336.6 million, compared with $279.6 million in the same period a year ago. International third quarter sales increased 17% to $1.39 billion, and operating income was $274.4 million, compared with $177.0 million in the same period a year ago.
Aerospace Systems Segment: Third quarter sales decreased 20% to $598.9 million, and operating income was $102.3 million, compared with $127.4 million in the same period a year ago.
Parker reported the following orders for the quarter ending March 31, 2021, compared with the same quarter a year ago:
· Orders increased 6% for total Parker
· Orders increased 11% in the Diversified Industrial North America businesses
· Orders increased 14% in the Diversified Industrial International businesses
· Orders decreased 19% in the Aerospace Systems Segment on a rolling 12-month average basis
Outlook
For the fiscal year ending June 30, 2021, the company has increased guidance for earnings per share to the range of $12.96 to $13.26, or $14.65 to $14.95 on an adjusted basis. Guidance assumes organic sales are flat compared with the prior year. Fiscal year 2021 guidance is adjusted on a pre-tax basis for expected business realignment expenses of approximately $50 million, costs to achieve of approximately $13 million, acquisition-related intangible asset amortization of approximately $324 million and a gain on the sale of land of approximately $101 million. A reconciliation of forecasted earnings per share to adjusted forecasted earnings per share is included in the financial tables of this press release.
Williams added, “Our increased guidance reflects strong year-to-date performance and a positive outlook for macroeconomic conditions as we enter the fourth quarter of this fiscal year. My thanks to our global team as they continue to execute the Win Strategy and progress towards achieving our long-term financial targets, positioning us among the top-quartile of our peer group of diversified industrial companies."

Note on Orders
Orders provide near-term perspective on the company's outlook, particularly when viewed in the context of prior and future quarterly order rates. However, orders are not in themselves an indication of future performance. All comparisons are at constant currency exchange rates, with the prior year restated to the current-year rates. All exclude acquisitions until they can be reflected in both the numerator and denominator. Aerospace comparisons are rolling 12-month average computations. The total Parker orders number is derived from a weighted average of the year-over-year quarterly % change in orders for Diversified Industrial North America and Diversified Industrial International, and the year-over-year 12-month rolling average of orders for the Aerospace Systems Segment.
Note on Net Income
Net income referenced in this press release is equal to net income attributable to common shareholders.
Note on Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This press release contains references to non-GAAP financial information including (a) adjusted earnings per share; (b) adjusted total segment operating margin; (c) EBITDA margin; and (d) adjusted EBITDA margin. The adjusted earnings per share and total segment operating margin measures are presented to allow investors and the company to meaningfully evaluate changes in earnings per share and total segment operating margin on a comparable basis from period to period. This press release
also contains references to EBITDA, EBITDA margin and adjusted EBITDA margin. EBITDA is defined as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization. Although EBITDA, EBITDA margin and adjusted EBITDA margin are not measures of performance calculated in accordance with GAAP, we believe that they are useful to an investor in evaluating the results of this quarter versus the prior period. A reconciliation of non-GAAP measures is included in the financial tables of this press release.
Forward-Looking Statements
Forward-looking statements contained in this and other written and oral reports are made based on known events and circumstances at the time of release, and as such, are subject in the future to unforeseen uncertainties and risks. These statements may be identified from the use of forward-looking terminology such as “anticipates,” “believes,” “may,” “should,” “could,” “potential,” “continues,” “plans,” “forecasts,” “estimates,” “projects,” “predicts,” “would,” “intends,” “expects,” “targets,” “is likely,” “will,” or the negative of these terms and similar expressions, and include all statements regarding future performance, earnings projections, events or developments. Parker cautions readers not to place undue reliance on these statements. It is possible that the future performance and earnings projections of the company, including its individual segments, may differ materially from current expectations, depending on economic conditions within its mobile, industrial and aerospace markets, and the company's ability to maintain and achieve anticipated benefits associated with announced realignment activities, strategic initiatives to improve operating margins, actions taken to combat the effects of the current economic environment, and growth, innovation and global diversification initiatives. Additionally, the actual impact of changes in tax laws in the United States and foreign jurisdictions and any judicial or regulatory interpretation thereof on future performance and earnings projections may impact the company’s tax calculations. A change in the economic conditions in individual markets may have a particularly volatile effect on segment performance.
Among other factors which may affect future performance are: the impact of the global outbreak of COVID-19 and governmental and other actions taken in response; changes in business relationships with and purchases by or from major customers, suppliers or distributors, including delays or cancellations in shipments; disputes regarding contract terms or significant changes in financial condition, changes in contract cost and revenue estimates for new development programs and changes in product mix; ability to identify acceptable strategic acquisition targets; uncertainties surrounding timing, successful completion or integration of acquisitions and similar transactions, including the integration of LORD Corporation or Exotic Metals; the ability to successfully divest businesses planned for divestiture and realize the anticipated benefits of such divestitures; the determination to undertake business realignment activities and the expected costs thereof and, if undertaken, the ability to complete such activities and realize the anticipated cost savings from such activities; ability to implement successfully capital allocation initiatives, including timing, price and execution of share repurchases; availability, limitations or cost increases of raw materials, component products and/or commodities that cannot be recovered in product pricing; ability to manage costs related to insurance and employee retirement and health care benefits; compliance costs associated with environmental laws and regulations; potential labor disruptions; threats associated with and efforts to combat terrorism and cyber-security risks; uncertainties surrounding the ultimate resolution of outstanding legal proceedings, including the outcome of any appeals; global competitive market conditions, including global reactions to U.S. trade policies, and resulting effects on sales and pricing; and global economic factors, including manufacturing activity, air travel trends, currency exchange rates, difficulties entering new markets and general economic conditions such as inflation, deflation, interest rates and credit availability. The company makes these statements as of the date of this disclosure and undertakes no obligation to update them unless otherwise required by law.

1This line item reflects the aggregate tax effect of all non-tax adjustments reflected in the preceding line items of the table. We estimate the tax effect of each adjustment item by applying our overall effective tax rate for continuing operations to the pre-tax amount, unless the nature of the item and/or the tax jurisdiction in which the item has been recorded requires application of a specific tax rate or tax treatment, in which case the tax effect of such item is estimated by applying such specific tax rate or tax treatment.
