Fiscal 2023 first quarter sales were a record at $4.23 billion, an increase of 12%, compared with $3.76 billion in the first quarter of fiscal 2022. Net income was $387.9 million compared with $451.2 million in the prior year quarter.

Fiscal 2023 year-to-date cash flow from operations was $457.4 million, or 10.8% of sales, compared with $424.4 million, or 11.3% of sales, in the prior year. A reconciliation of non-GAAP measures is included in the financial tables of this press release and includes various expenses associated with the completion of the acquisition of Meggitt plc and the related divestiture of the Aircraft Wheel and Brake Division during the first quarter of fiscal 2023.

“Our global team delivered yet another quarter of impressive performance and we reached an important milestone by completing the acquisition of Meggitt plc,” said Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, Tom Williams. “Sales were an all-time quarterly record despite currency headwinds as we had strong levels of organic growth in every region. Adjusted total segment operating margin was a first quarter record, increasing 70 basis points compared with the prior year period. Our adjusted EBITDA margin increased 120 basis points year-over-year, and we achieved a first quarter record for adjusted earnings per share. These results reflect the agility of our team members and the continued actions we have taken to strengthen our business under The Win Strategy™."

Outlook
Parker's outlook for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2023 has been updated and now includes the acquisition of Meggitt plc and the divestiture of the Aircraft Wheel and Brake Division. The company expects fiscal 2023 organic sales growth to be in the range of 4.5% to 7.5% and earnings per share in the range of $12.85 to $13.55, or $18.60 to $19.30 on an adjusted basis. 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, “The integration of Meggitt is well underway and we are very excited about the synergies we can create from the combination of two great companies. During fiscal 2023 we will benefit from the addition of Meggitt as well as the past acquisitions that have transformed our portfolio. These portfolio changes, combined with our ability to capitalize on secular growth trends and the Win Strategy 3.0, will position us to deliver another record year in fiscal 2023 despite foreign currency translation pressures. We continue to feel very positive about our ability to achieve our fiscal 2027 targets."

Note on Reclassification
Effective July 1, 2022, the company began classifying certain expenses, previously classified as cost of sales, as selling, general and administrative expenses (“SG&A”) or within other (income) expense, net. During the integration of recently acquired businesses, the company has seen diversity in practice of the classifications of certain expenses, and the reclassification was made to better align the presentation of expenses on the Consolidated Statement of Income with management’s internal reporting. The expenses reclassified from cost of sales to SG&A relate to certain administrative activities conducted in production facilities and research and development. Foreign currency transaction expense was also reclassified from cost of sales to other (income) expense, net on the Consolidated Statement of Income. These reclassifications had no impact on net income, earnings per share, cash flows, segment reporting or the financial position of the Company and were retrospectively applied to all periods presented in the financial tables of this press release.

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, and divestitures. 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 net income; (b) adjusted earnings per share; (c) adjusted segment operating margins; (d) adjusted segment operating income; (e) EBITDA margin; (f) adjusted EBITDA margin and (g) organic sales growth. The adjusted net income, earnings per share, segment operating margin, adjusted segment operating income and organic sales measures are presented to allow investors and the company to meaningfully evaluate changes in net income, earnings per share and segment operating margins 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. Comparable descriptions of record adjusted results in this release refer only to the period from the first quarter of FY2011 to the periods presented in this release. This period coincides with recast historical financial results provided in association with our FY2014 change in segment reporting. A reconciliation of non-GAAP measures is included in the financial tables of this press release.
