  • Double-digit orders growth across all business segments, reflecting strong commercial momentum and underlying demand in critical infrastructure
  • Adjusted EBITDA margin of 17.1%, up 480 basis points; net income as a percentage of revenue was 6.9%, up 350 basis points
  • Reported net income of $87 million or $0.48 per share; adjusted net income of $102 million or $0.56 per share
  • Raising full-year organic revenue guidance to a range of 5% to 7%, and adjusted earnings per share to a range of $2.50 to $2.70

RYE BROOK, N.Y.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--May 4, 2021-- Xylem Inc. (NYSE: XYL), a leading global water technology company dedicated to solving the world’s most challenging water issues, today reported first quarter 2021 revenue of $1.26 billion. Revenues grew 12 percent on a reported basis, and 8 percent organically, reflecting demand growth across all segments.

First quarter adjusted earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) margin grew 480 basis points to 17.1 percent. The margin expansion was driven by volume benefits from strong demand, productivity gains and cost discipline. Xylem generated net income of $87 million, or $0.48 per share, and adjusted net income of $102 million, or $0.56 per share, which excludes the impact of restructuring, realignment and special charges.

“Our Xylem team performed exceptionally well in the first quarter, despite ongoing pandemic challenges around the world. I’m so proud of how the team has served our customers and communities,” said Patrick Decker, Xylem’s president and CEO. “We came into the year with growing momentum, and are taking full advantage of resurgent demand alongside broader economic recovery, posting double-digit orders growth across all segments.”

“The positive market signals we are seeing, and our team’s proven ability to manage through a challenging supply chain environment, give us confidence about the remainder of this year and beyond. On that basis, we are raising our guidance for the full year, for both top-line growth and earnings.”

Updated Outlook

Xylem now expects full year organic revenue growth to be in the range of 5 to 7 percent, and 8 to 10 percent on a reported basis. This represents an increase from the Company’s previous full-year organic revenue guidance of 3 to 5 percent, and 6 to 8 percent on a reported basis. Full-year adjusted earnings per share is now expected to be in the range of $2.50 to $2.70, up from the previous range of $2.35 to $2.60. The increased guidance primarily reflects commercial momentum and broad demand recovery.

Further 2021 planning assumptions are included in Xylem’s first quarter 2021 earnings materials posted at www.xylem.com/investors. Excluding revenue, Xylem provides guidance only on a non-GAAP basis due to the inherent difficulty in forecasting certain amounts that would be included in GAAP earnings, such as discrete tax items, without unreasonable effort.

First Quarter Segment Results

Water Infrastructure

Xylem’s Water Infrastructure segment consists of its portfolio of businesses serving wastewater transport and treatment, clean water delivery, and dewatering.

  • First quarter 2021 revenue was $509 million, up 11 percent organically, and up 16 percent as reported, compared with first quarter 2020. Double-digit growth in both utilities and industrial end markets was driven by strong demand in wastewater applications and project deliveries in Europe, along with strength in Emerging Markets compared to a COVID-challenged environment in the first quarter of the prior year.
  • First quarter adjusted EBITDA margin was 17.3 percent, up 430 basis points from the prior year. Reported operating income for the segment was $71 million and adjusted operating income, which excludes $5 million of restructuring and realignment costs, was $76 million. The segment reported operating margin was 13.9 percent, up 500 basis points versus the prior year period. Adjusted operating margin rose 490 basis points to 14.9 percent. Strong productivity and volume leverage offset inflation.

Applied Water

Xylem’s Applied Water segment consists of its portfolio of businesses in industrial, commercial building, and residential applications.

  • First quarter 2021 revenue was $393 million, representing 13 percent organic growth year-over-year, and 16 percent growth on a reported basis. Double-digit growth from strong demand in industrial and residential end markets was supplemented by mid-single digit growth in the commercial end market.
  • First quarter adjusted EBITDA margin was 19.1 percent, up 250 basis points from the prior year. Reported operating income for the segment was $66 million and adjusted operating income, which excludes $1 million of restructuring and realignment costs and $1 million of special charges, was $68 million. The segment reported operating margin was 16.8 percent, up 290 basis points versus the prior year period. Adjusted operating margin rose 280 basis points to 17.3 percent. Strong productivity, cost savings and volume leverage more than offset inflation.

Measurement & Control Solutions

Xylem’s Measurement & Control Solutions segment consists of its portfolio of businesses in smart metering, network technologies, advanced infrastructure analytics and analytic instrumentation.

  • First quarter 2021 revenue was $354 million, flat organically and up 2 percent on a reported basis, as modest growth in water applications from strong demand in the test business was offset by declines in energy applications from COVID-19 related delays on smart metrology deployments.
  • First quarter adjusted EBITDA margin was 15.5 percent, up 770 basis points from the prior year. Reported operating income for the segment was $9 million and adjusted operating income, which excludes $2 million of restructuring and realignment costs, was $11 million. The segment reported operating margin was 2.5 percent, up 600 basis points versus the prior year period. Adjusted operating margin rose 600 basis points to 3.1 percent. Productivity gains and the effect of lapping a one-time warranty charge in the same period of the prior year more than offset inflation and timing delays on smart metrology deployments.

Xylem Inc. Non-GAAP Measures
 
Management reviews key performance indicators including revenue, gross margins, segment operating income and margins, orders growth, working capital and backlog, among others. In addition, we consider certain non-GAAP (or "adjusted") measures to be useful to management and investors evaluating our operating performance for the periods presented, and to provide a tool for evaluating our ongoing operations, liquidity and management of assets. This information can assist investors in assessing our financial performance and measures our ability to generate capital for deployment among competing strategic alternatives and initiatives, including but not limited to, dividends, acquisitions, share repurchases and debt repayment. Excluding revenue, Xylem provides guidance only on a non-GAAP basis due to the inherent difficulty in forecasting certain amounts that would be included in GAAP earnings, such as discrete tax items, without unreasonable effort. These adjusted metrics are consistent with how management views our business and are used to make financial, operating and planning decisions. These metrics, however, are not measures of financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered a substitute for revenue, operating income, net income, earnings per share (basic and diluted) or net cash from operating activities as determined in accordance with GAAP. We consider the following items to represent the non-GAAP measures we consider to be key performance indicators, as well as the related reconciling items to the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. The non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.
 
“Organic revenue" and "Organic orders” defined as revenue and orders, respectively, excluding the impact of fluctuations in foreign currency translation and contributions from acquisitions and divestitures. Divestitures include sales or discontinuance of insignificant portions of our business that did not meet the criteria for classification as a discontinued operation. The period-over-period change resulting from foreign currency translation impacts is determined by translating current period and prior period activity using the same currency conversion rate.
 
“Constant currency” defined as financial results adjusted for foreign currency translation impacts by translating current period and prior period activity using the same currency conversion rate. This approach is used for countries whose functional currency is not the U.S. dollar.
 
“EBITDA” defined as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization expense. “Adjusted EBITDA” and "Adjusted Segment EBITDA" reflects the adjustments to EBITDA and segment EBITDA, respectively, to exclude share-based compensation charges, restructuring and realignment costs, gain or loss from sale of businesses and special charges.
 
"Adjusted EBITDA Margin" and "Adjusted Segment EBITDA margin" defined as adjusted EBITDA and adjusted segment EBITDA divided by total revenue and segment revenue, respectively.
 
"Adjusted Operating Income", "Adjusted Segment Operating Income", "Adjusted Net Income" and “Adjusted EPS” defined as operating income, segment operating income, net income and earnings per share, adjusted to exclude restructuring and realignment costs, gain or loss from sale of businesses, special charges and tax-related special items, as applicable.
 
"Adjusted Operating Margin" and "Adjusted Segment Operating Margin" defined as adjusted operating income and adjusted segment operating income divided by total revenue and segment revenue, respectively.
 
“Free Cash Flow” defined as net cash from operating activities, as reported in the Statement of Cash Flow, less capital expenditures, and "Free Cash Flow Conversion" defined as Free Cash Flows divided by net income, excluding the gain on sale of businesses, non-cash impairment charges and significant deferred tax items. Our definitions of "free cash flow" and "free cash flow conversion" do not consider certain non-discretionary cash payments, such as debt.
 
“Realignment costs” defined as costs not included in restructuring costs that are incurred as part of actions taken to reposition our business, including items such as professional fees, severance, relocation, travel, facility set-up and other costs.
 
“Special charges" defined as costs incurred by the Company, such as acquisition and integration related costs, non-cash impairment charges and both operating and non-operating adjustments for pension costs.
 
“Tax-related special items" defined as tax items, such as tax return versus tax provision adjustments, tax exam impacts, tax law change impacts, excess tax benefits/losses and other discrete tax adjustments.
