Gross Margin* Improved Over 200 Basis Points Sequentially Driven By Strong Price Realization

Strategic Divestitures Enable A More Focused Company And $2.3 Billion Return Of Capital To Shareholders

NEW BRITAIN, Conn., April 28, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Stanley Black & Decker (NYSE:SWK) today announced first quarter 2022 financial results.

The Company's results represent continuing operations and exclude Stanley Access Technologies ("Access Technologies") following the announced divestiture earlier this month, unless specifically noted. This transaction, which is the final piece of the Security business divestiture is subject to regulatory approval and customary closing conditions and is expected to close mid-year. The results of this business were previously included in Corporate and Other, and are now recorded as discontinued operations.

First Quarter Revenues Of $4.4 Billion, Up 20% Versus Prior Year, Led By Acquisitions In Outdoor Power Equipment And Price Realization
First Quarter Diluted GAAP EPS Was $0.94; Excluding Charges, Adjusted Diluted EPS* Was $2.10
Full Year 2022 Total Revenue Growth Is Expected To Be In The Mid-Twenties Year-Over-Year
Updating Full Year 2022 Diluted GAAP EPS Guidance Range To $7.20 - $8.30 (From $10.10 - $10.70); Adjusted Diluted EPS* To $9.50 - $10.50 (From $12.00 - $12.50); Free Cash Flow To Approximate $1.0 - $1.5 Billion
Made Substantial Progress Toward $4 Billion Share Repurchase Program, Initiating $2 Billion Accelerated Share Repurchase And Completed $0.3 Billion Open-Market Repurchases

"Stanley Black & Decker capitalized on the strong demand environment, our recent strategic acquisitions in the fast-growing outdoor power equipment market and a 5% contribution from pricing to drive 20% quarterly revenue growth as well as higher sequential margins," said Stanley Black & Decker CEO Jim Loree.

"We continue to strengthen our number one position in tools and are strategically focusing our portfolio for sustained growth, scale and efficiencies. Our announced Security divestitures enabled $2.3 billion of share repurchases in the first quarter, at a compelling value, which represents substantial progress against our $4 billion share repurchase program."

"I want to thank the organization for their agility and efforts as they successfully deliver strong day-to-day operational execution, inventory management and pricing realization in 2022. While inflationary pressures remain a macro headwind, we have demonstrated our ability to offset those pressures. We continue to invest in leading edge product innovation, strategic growth initiatives and capacity expansions to better serve our customers to enable a multi-year runway for growth, margin expansion and long-term shareholder value creation," concluded Loree.

1Q'22 Key Points:

Net sales for the quarter were $4.4 billion, up 20% versus prior year driven by strategic outdoor power equipment acquisitions (+23%) and price realization (+5%), partially offset by lower volume (-6%) and currency (-2%). Volume was in line with expectations, but constrained by temporary electronic component supply challenges, which have continued to improve.

Gross margin for the quarter was 29.3%. Excluding charges, gross margin* was 31.3%, improving 230 basis points sequentially due to the successful implementation of planned price realization actions. Gross margin* was down 610 basis points from prior year as price realization was more than offset primarily by commodity inflation, higher supply chain costs to serve demand and lower volumes.

Growth investments were deployed across the businesses, with SG&A 21.6% of sales. Excluding charges, first quarter adjusted SG&A expenses* were 19.8% of sales, up 90 basis points versus prior year.

The first quarter tax rate was 12.8%. Excluding charges, the adjusted tax rate* was 13.2%.

Working capital turns for the quarter were 3.7 turns down 1.5 turns sequentially, due to inventory investments to support the strong demand, as well as the historical seasonal upturn in sales related to Father's Day and the 2022 outdoor and construction seasons. Inventory is planned to decline sequentially beginning in the back half supporting an expected inventory reduction in 2022 versus year end 2021.

Donald Allan Jr., President and CFO, commented, "We made tangible progress on our key priorities in the first quarter, most notably price realization and improved component supply, while we continued managing the global supply chain environment. However, inflationary trends continued during the quarter and we are responding with additional pricing actions to be implemented in the coming weeks. We are adjusting our plan accordingly as well as incorporating the impact of strategic divestitures and the closure of our Russia business into revised guidance.

"We continue to be focused on driving above-market organic growth, delivering on our price and cost control measures, successfully integrating MTD and Excel into the portfolio and leveraging the SBD Operating Model to improve our fill rates, working capital performance and other operational metrics."

1Q'22 Segment Results

	Sales	Profit	Charges¹	Profit Ex- Charges*	Profit Rate	Profit Rate Ex- Charges*

¹See Acquisition-Related And Other Charges On Page 5

* Non-GAAP Financial Measure As Further Defined On Page 7

Tools & Outdoor net sales increased 24% versus 1Q'21 as the acquisitions of MTD and Excel (+27%) and price (+5%) were partially offset by lower volume (-6%) and currency (-2%). Organic growth from pricing improved 60 basis points versus the fourth quarter as we implemented new global price increases in response to commodity inflation and higher costs to serve. Regional organic revenue was relatively in line with the anticipated supply-constrained performance in the emerging markets (+5%), Europe (+2%), and North America (-3%). Sales from outdoor acquisitions were modestly impacted by a later start to the merchandising season due to colder weather, and are expected to be recovered in the second and third quarter. Using 2019 as a baseline, U.S. retail point-of-sale demand remained robust driven by strong professional construction markets and innovation with POS growth rates stronger than the growth rates experienced in 2H'21. Channel inventory in U.S. retail remained below historical levels, in particular for professional power tools. The Tools & Outdoor segment profit rate, excluding charges, was 14.0%, up sequentially from 11.4% in 4Q'21 primarily reflecting the benefit of new global price increases. There was a year-over-year decline from 21.2% in 1Q'21 as initial benefit from price realization was more than offset by inflation, higher supply chain costs, growth investments and lower volume.

Industrial net sales declined 2% versus 1Q'21 as price (+5%) was more than offset by volume (-5%) and currency (-2%). Engineered Fastening organic revenues were down 1% as general industrial fastener growth was primarily offset by a market driven decline in automotive. Infrastructure organic revenues were up 4%, as 13% growth in attachment tools was partially offset by lower pipeline project activity in Oil & Gas. The Industrial segment profit rate, excluding charges, was 6.9%, down versus 15.7% in 1Q'21, as the initial benefit from price realization was more than offset by commodity inflation and lower volume in higher-margin automotive and aerospace fasteners.

2022 Outlook

For the full year 2022, the Company projects mid-twenties total revenue growth year-over-year. The Company is revising its 2022 EPS outlook to $7.20 - $8.30 on a diluted GAAP basis from $10.10 to $10.70, and on an adjusted basis to $9.50 to $10.50 from $12.00 to $12.50.

Free cash flow is expected to be approximately $1.0 to $1.5 billion as the Company focuses on serving its customers while leveraging the SBD Operating Model to drive working capital efficiency. Through the first quarter, $2.3 billion of the planned $4 billion share repurchase was initiated and the Company expects completion of the total program in 2023. Stanley Black & Decker remains focused on disciplined capital allocation which aims to balance share repurchase activity with its commitment to dividends and strong investment grade credit ratings.

The following reflects the key assumption changes to the Company's prior EPS outlook:

Access Technologies divestiture (-$0.30)
Russia business closure (-$0.15)
Incremental $600 million in commodity and transit inflation (-$3.50)
Incremental pricing actions, first quarter performance and other (+$1.70)

The difference between 2022 GAAP and adjusted EPS guidance is $2.20 to $2.30, consisting of acquisition-related and other charges. These forecasted charges primarily relate to restructuring expenses, a voluntary retirement program, the Russia business closure, integration costs and non-cash inventory step-up charges.

Acquisition-Related And Other Charges

Total pre-tax acquisition-related and other charges in the first quarter of 2022 totaled $221.4 million, primarily related to non-cash inventory step-up charges, restructuring expense, a voluntary retirement program, integration-related costs and the Russia business closure. Gross profit included $88.8 million of these charges while SG&A included $78.9 million. Other, net and Restructuring included $1.0 million and $52.7 million of these charges, respectively.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Organic sales growth, or organic growth, is defined as the difference between total current and prior year sales less the impact of companies acquired and divested in the past twelve months and any foreign currency impacts divided by prior year sales. Operating profit is defined as sales less cost of sales and selling, general and administrative expenses. Operating margin is operating profit as a percentage of sales. Operating profit and operating margin are shown both inclusive and exclusive of acquisition-related and other charges. Management uses operating profit and operating margin as key measures to assess the performance of the Company as a whole, as well as the related measures at the segment level. Diluted EPS, excluding charges, or adjusted EPS, is diluted GAAP EPS excluding the impacts of acquisition-related and other charges. Free cash flow is defined as cash flow from operations less capital and software expenditures. Management considers free cash flow an important indicator of its liquidity, as well as its ability to fund future growth and to provide a return to the shareowners, and is useful information for investors. Free cash flow does not include deductions for mandatory debt service, other borrowing activity, discretionary dividends on the Company's common and preferred stock and business acquisitions, among other items. Free cash flow conversion is defined as free cash flow divided by net income. The Non-GAAP statement of operations and business segment information is reconciled to GAAP on pages 13 and 14. The Company considers the use of the Non-GAAP financial measures above relevant to aid analysis and understanding of the Company's results, business trends and outlook measures aside from the material impact of acquisition-related and other charges and ensures appropriate comparability to operating results of prior periods.
