Key developments for LITTELFUSE INC (LFUS)
Littelfuse Inc. reported earnings results for the fourth quarter and full year 2009. On a GAAP basis, diluted earnings per share for the fourth quarter of 2009 were $0.53, which was above the company's latest guidance of $0.49 to $0.52 due primarily to a more favorable tax rate. In the fourth quarter of 2008, the company recorded a loss of $0.42. The sharply improved earnings compared to the prior year were the result of higher sales, a significantly improved cost structure and fewer restructuring charges. Cash provided by operating activities was $28.9 million for the fourth quarter of 2009, due to strong earnings and excellent working capital performance. Capital expenditures were $2.2 million for the fourth quarter of 2009. At the end of the fourth quarter of 2009, the company had cash net of debt of $7.2 million compared to a net debt position of $20.1 million at the end of the third quarter of 2009. The company said that sales of $430.1 million for 2009 were down 19% compared to 2008, due to declines in all market segments and all geographies reflecting the global economic downturn compounded by distributor de-stocking. On a GAAP basis, diluted earnings per share were $0.43 for 2009 compared to $0.37 for 2008, as cost reductions and fewer restructuring charges more than offset lower sales volume. Cash provided by operating activities was $29.6 million for 2009 compared to $40.7 million in 2008. Capital expenditures were $15.5 million in 2009 compared to $51.3 million in 2008, as a result of significant 2008 spending on facilities and equipment related to manufacturing transfer programs. Capital spending for 2010 is expected to be in the range of $16 to $19 million.
