Executive Summary
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
We provide an analysis of our operations below on both a generally accepted
accounting principles ("GAAP") and non-GAAP basis. The purpose of the non-GAAP
information is to report our financial information
ˇ excluding retirement expenses related to frozen retirement plans and
retirement plans from former operations,
ˇ without certain income and expense items in 2010, 2011 and 2012, and
ˇ after adjusting tax expense for certain items.
The non-GAAP financial measures are intended to provide information to assist comparability and estimates of future performance. The adjustments are described in detail and are reconciled to our GAAP results on pages 42- 45.
2012 versus 2011
GAAP
Our revenues increased $75.8 million or 2% and our operating profit decreased
$28.3 million or 14% in 2012. Revenues increased due to organic growth in our
International segment, partially offset by unfavorable changes in currency
exchange rates and an organic decrease in our North America segment. Operating
profit decreased primarily due to increased U.S. retirement plan expenses ($28.2
million), the negative impact of changes in currency exchange rates ($14.9
million) and a gain recognized in 2011 on the sale of U.S. Document Destruction
business ($6.7 million), partially offset by organic profit improvement in our
International segment ($16.8 million), including a gain on the sale of real
estate in Venezuela ($7.2 million).
Income from continuing operations attributable to Brink's shareholders in 2012 increased 11% compared to 2011 primarily due to lower tax expense ($37.0 million) mainly resulting from a $21.1 million tax benefit related to a change in retiree healthcare funding strategy, and lower income attributable to noncontrolling interests ($3.2 million), partially offset by the operating profit decrease mentioned above.
Our earnings per share from continuing operations was $2.20, up from $2.01 in 2011.
Non-GAAP
Our revenues increased $77.4 million or 2% and our operating profit decreased
$1.0 million in 2012. Revenues increased due to organic growth in our
International segment, partially offset by unfavorable changes in currency
exchange rates and an organic decrease in our North America segment. Operating
profit decreased primarily due to the negative impact of changes in currency
exchange rates ($15.2 million) and increased non-segment expense ($1.7 million),
partially offset by organic improvement in our International ($8.4 million) and
North American ($6.6 million) segments.
Income from continuing operations attributable to Brink's shareholders in 2012 increased 1% primarily due to lower income attributable to noncontrolling interests ($4.1 million), partially offset by higher tax expense ($2.9 million).
Our earnings per share from continuing operations was $2.31, down from $2.32 in 2011.
2011 versus 2010
GAAP
Our revenues increased $790.1 million or 27% and our operating profit increased
$23.0 million or 13% in 2011. Revenues increased due to our 2010 acquisitions in
Mexico and Canada, organic growth in our International segment and favorable
changes in currency exchange rates. Operating profit increased primarily due to:
ˇ organic improvement in our International segment ($17.1 million),
ˇ the positive impact of changes in currency exchange rates ($13.9 million),
ˇ 2011 net gains on acquisitions and asset dispositions ($9.7 million),
ˇ 2010 net losses related to an acquisition ($8.6 million), and
ˇ the impact of our 2010 acquisition in Mexico,
partially offset by lower profits in our North America segment on an organic basis ($14.5 million) and lower royalties from our former home security business ($4.9 million).
Segment results also reflected increased security costs across all regions.
Income from continuing operations attributable to Brink's shareholders in 2011 increased 18% compared to 2010 primarily due to the increase in operating profit and lower tax expense due to an income tax charge in 2010 related to U.S. healthcare legislation ($13.7 million), partially offset by increased borrowing costs ($9.4 million) and higher net income attributable to noncontrolling interests ($8.3 million).
Our earnings per share from continuing operations was $2.01, up from $1.69 in 2010.
Non-GAAP
Our revenues increased $789.2 million or 27% and our operating profit increased
$19.3 million or 9% in 2011. Revenues increased due to our acquisitions in
Mexico and Canada, organic growth in our International segment and favorable
changes in currency exchange rates. Operating profit increased primarily due to:
ˇ organic improvement in our International segment ($17.8 million),
ˇ the positive impact of currency exchange rates ($10.8 million), and
ˇ the impact of our 2010 acquisition in Mexico,
partially offset by lower profits in our North America segment on an organic basis ($10.3 million) and increased non-segment expenses ($4.4 million).
Segment results also reflected increased security costs across all regions.
Income from continuing operations attributable to Brink's shareholders in 2011 decreased 4% primarily due to increased borrowing costs ($9.1 million) and higher net income attributable to noncontrolling interests ($6.1 million), partially offset by the increase in operating profit.
Our earnings per share from continuing operations was $2.32, down from $2.39 in 2010.
Outlook for 2013
GAAP
Our organic revenue growth rate for 2013 is expected to be in the 5% to 8%
range, and our estimate of the impact of changes in currency exchange rates on
revenue is in the negative 1% to negative 3% range. Our operating segment
margin is expected to be in the 5.0% to 5.5% range. Our International organic
revenue growth rate for 2013 is expected to be in the 7% to 9% range, and our
estimate of the impact of changes in currency exchange rates on International
revenue is in the negative 2% to negative 4% range. Our International segment
margin is expected to be in the 6.0% to 6.5% range. Our North America organic
revenue growth rate for 2013 is expected to be in the 0% to 2% range, and our
estimate of the impact of changes in currency exchange rates on North America
revenue is 0%. Our North America segment margin is expected to be in the 2.8%
to 3.3% range. Our estimate assumes results will be impacted by the equivalent
of a 40% devaluation in Venezuela early in the second quarter. The Venezuelan
government announced a devaluation from the SITME rate of approximately 16% on
February 8, 2013.
Non-GAAP
Our outlook for non-GAAP revenues is the same as our outlook for GAAP revenues.
Our operating segment margin is expected to be in the 6.0% to 6.5% range. Our International segment margin is expected to be in the 7.0% to 7.5% range and our North America segment margin is expected to be in the 4.0% to 4.5% range.
During 2013, we intend to pursue higher margin business opportunities and continue to invest in information technology. We expect continued profit growth in Latin America during 2013. We expect North America margins to be flat to down and Europe to be down in 2013. We expect our Global Services growth to continue across all regions. See page 41 for a summary of our 2013 Outlook.
Definition of Organic Growth
Organic growth represents the change in revenues or operating profit between the
current and prior period, excluding the effect of the following
items: acquisitions and dispositions, changes in currency exchange rates (as
described on page 29) and the remeasurement of net monetary assets in Venezuela
under highly inflationary accounting.
Business and Strategy Overview
We have four geographic operating segments: Latin America; Europe, Middle East,
and Africa ("EMEA"); Asia Pacific; and North America, which are aggregated into
two reportable segments: International and North America. Our North America
segment includes operations in the U.S. and Canada.
We believe that Brink's has significant competitive advantages including:
ˇ brand name recognition
ˇ reputation for a high level of service and security
ˇ risk management and logistics expertise
ˇ global infrastructure and customer base
ˇ proprietary cash processing and information systems
ˇ proven operational excellence
ˇ high-quality insurance coverage and general financial strength
We focus our time and resources on service quality, protecting and strengthening our brand, and addressing our risks. We are a premium provider of services in most of the markets we serve. Our marketing and sales efforts are enhanced by the "Brink's" brand, so we seek to protect and build its value. Because our services focus on handling, transporting, protecting, and managing valuables, we strive to understand and manage risk. Overlaying our approach is an understanding that we must be disciplined and patient enough to charge prices that reflect the value provided, the risk assumed and the need for an adequate return for our investors.
Business environments around the world change constantly. We must adapt to changes in competitive landscapes, regional economies and each customer's level of business. We balance underlying business risk and the effects of changing demand on the utilization of our resources.
We measure financial performance on a long-term basis. The key financial
measures are:
ˇ Return on capital
ˇ Revenue and earnings growth
ˇ Cash flow generation
Because of our emphasis on managing risks while providing a high level of service, we focus our marketing and selling efforts on customers who appreciate the value and breadth of our services, information and risk management capabilities, and financial strength.
In order to earn an adequate return on capital, we focus on the effective and efficient use of resources as well as appropriate pricing levels. We attempt to maximize the amount of business that flows through our branches, vehicles and systems in order to obtain the lowest costs possible without compromising safety, security or service. Due to our higher investment in people and processes, we generally charge higher prices than competitors that do not provide the same level of service and risk management.
The industries we serve have been consolidating. As a result, the demands and expectations of customers in these industries have grown. Customers are increasingly seeking suppliers, such as Brink's, with broad geographic solutions, sophisticated outsourcing capabilities and financial strength.
Operating results may vary from period to period. Since revenues are generated from charges per service performed or based on the value of goods transported, they can be affected by both the level of economic activity and the volume of business for specific customers. As contracts generally run for one or more years, costs are incurred to prepare to serve, or to transition away, from a customer. We also periodically incur costs to reduce operations when volumes decline, including costs to reduce the number of employees and close or consolidate branch and administrative facilities. In addition, security costs can vary depending on performance, cost of insurance coverage, and changes in crime rates (i.e., attacks and robberies).
Cash Management Services is a fully integrated solution that proactively manages the supply chain of cash from point-of-sale through bank deposit. The process includes cashier balancing and reporting, deposit processing and consolidation, and electronic information exchange
(including "same-day" credit capabilities). Retail customers use Brink's Cash Management Services to count and reconcile coins and currency in a secure environment, to prepare bank deposit information, and to replenish customer coins and currency in proper denominations.
Because Cash Management Services involves a higher level of service and more complex activities, customers are charged higher prices, which result in higher margins. The ability to offer Cash Management Services to customers differentiates Brink's from many of its competitors. Management is focused on continuing to grow Cash Management Services revenue.
Brink's revenues and related operating profit are generally higher in the second half of the year, particularly in the fourth quarter, because of generally increased economic activity associated with the holiday season.
Former Businesses
We have significant liabilities associated with our former coal operations,
primarily related to retirement plans, which are partially funded by plan
trusts.
