CLEVELAND, Feb. 9, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- TransDigm Group Incorporated (NYSE: TDG), a leading global designer, producer and supplier of highly engineered aircraft components, today reported results for the first quarter ended January 2, 2016.
Highlights for the first quarter include:
Net sales for the quarter rose 19.6%, or $114.8 million, to $701.7 million from $586.9 million in the comparable quarter a year ago. The acquisitions of the Telair Cargo Group ("Telair"), the aerospace business of Franke Aquarotter GmbH ("Franke"), the assets of the aerospace business of Pexco LLC ("Pexco") and PneuDraulics, Inc. contributed approximately $121.4 million of the increase in net sales, partially offset by a slight decrease in organic net sales.
Net income for the quarter rose 20.3% to $114.9 million, or $1.97 per share, compared to $95.5 million, or $1.63 per share, in the comparable quarter a year ago. The increase in net income primarily reflects the growth in net sales described above, lower effective tax rate, and strength of our proprietary products and continued productivity efforts. This growth in net income was partially offset by higher interest expense, non-cash compensation and acquisition-related costs.
Earnings per share were reduced in both 2016 and 2015 by $0.05 and $0.06 per share respectively, representing dividend equivalent payments during each quarter.
Adjusted net income for the quarter rose 26.5% to $128.7 million, or $2.27 per share, from $101.8 million, or $1.80 per share, in the comparable quarter a year ago.
EBITDA for the quarter increased 15.2% to $302.2 million from $262.5 million for the comparable quarter a year ago. EBITDA As Defined for the period increased 18.4% to $319.4 million compared with $269.7 million in the quarter a year ago. EBITDA As Defined as a percentage of net sales for the quarter was 45.5%.
"Our fiscal 2016 first quarter revenue and EBITDA As Defined were both up almost 20% compared to the prior year quarter, in line with our original expectations," stated W. Nicholas Howley, TransDigm Group's Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. "Additionally, our pro-forma market channel revenues, assuming we owned the same mix of businesses in both periods, roughly met our expectations. We saw modest increases in commercial transport OEM and aftermarket revenues offset by declines in business jet and helicopter revenue. Our reported EBITDA As Defined margin of approximately 46% was about the same as the prior period in spite of approximately 1.5 margin point dilution from the acquisitions completed in fiscal 2015. Our constant focus on our value-based operating strategy, including our first quarter cost reductions, continued to show results."
During the thirteen week period ended January 2, 2016, TransDigm repurchased 323,868 shares of its common stock with a weighted-average price per share of $218.53 at an aggregate cost of approximately $70.8 million under our then-existing $300 million stock repurchase program. Subsequent to the fiscal quarter end, TransDigm repurchased 128,319 shares of its common stock with a weighted-average price per share of $217.47 at an aggregate cost of approximately $27.9 million under the program. On January 21, 2016, our Board of Directors authorized a stock repurchase program replacing the existing repurchase program permitting the repurchase of a portion of TransDigm's outstanding shares not to exceed $450 million.
Subsequent to the fiscal first quarter end, on January 4, 2016, TransDigm completed the tender offer for all of the outstanding shares of Breeze-Eastern Corporation (Breeze-Eastern) (NYSE MKT:BZC) for $19.61 per share in cash. The purchase price for the tender offer was approximately $178 million, net of approximately $27 million of cash acquired. Breeze-Eastern is a leading global designer and manufacturer of high performance lifting and pulling devices for military and civilian aircraft, including rescue hoists, winches and cargo hooks, and weapons-lifting systems.
Please see the attached tables for a reconciliation of net income to EBITDA, EBITDA As Defined, and adjusted net income; a reconciliation of net cash provided by operating activities to EBITDA and EBITDA As Defined, and a reconciliation of earnings per share to adjusted earnings per share for the periods discussed in this press release.
Fiscal 2016 Outlook
Mr. Howley continued, "We are increasing the full year fiscal 2016 guidance primarily to reflect the recent acquisition of Breeze-Eastern, current market conditions and our first quarter performance."
Assuming no additional acquisitions, the revised guidance is as follows:

Non-GAAP Supplemental Information
EBITDA, EBITDA As Defined, EBITDA As Defined Margin, adjusted net income and adjusted earnings per share are non-GAAP financial measures presented in this press release as supplemental disclosures to net income and reported results. TransDigm Group defines EBITDA as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization and defines EBITDA As Defined as EBITDA plus certain non-operating items, refinancing costs, acquisition-related costs, transaction-related costs and non-cash charges incurred in connection with certain employee benefit plans. TransDigm Group defines adjusted net income as net income plus purchase accounting backlog amortization expense, effects from the sale on businesses, refinancing costs, acquisition-related costs, transaction-related costs and non-cash charges incurred in connection with certain employee benefit plans. EBITDA As Defined Margin represents EBITDA As Defined as a percentage of net sales. TransDigm Group defines adjusted diluted earnings per share as adjusted net income divided by the total shares for basic and diluted earnings per share. For more information regarding the computation of EBITDA, EBITDA As Defined and adjusted net income and adjusted earnings per share, please see the attached financial tables.
TransDigm Group presents these non-GAAP financial measures because it believes that they are useful indicators of its operating performance. TransDigm Group believes that EBITDA is useful to investors because it is frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties to measure operating performance among companies with different capital structures, effective tax rates and tax attributes, capitalized asset values and employee compensation structures, all of which can vary substantially from company to company. In addition, analysts, rating agencies and others use EBITDA to evaluate a company's ability to incur and service debt. EBITDA As Defined is used to measure TransDigm Inc.'s compliance with the financial covenant contained in its credit facility. TransDigm Group's management also uses EBITDA As Defined to review and assess its operating performance, to prepare its annual budget and financial projections and to review and evaluate its management team in connection with employee incentive programs. Moreover, TransDigm Group's management uses EBITDA As Defined to evaluate acquisitions and as a liquidity measure. In addition, TransDigm Group's management uses adjusted net income as a measure of comparable operating performance between time periods and among companies as it is reflective of changes in pricing decisions, cost controls and other factors that affect operating performance.
None of EBITDA, EBITDA As Defined, EBITDA As Defined Margin, adjusted net income or adjusted earnings per share is a measurement of financial performance under GAAP and such financial measures should not be considered as an alternative to net income, operating income, earnings per share, cash flows from operating activities or other measures of performance determined in accordance with GAAP. In addition, TransDigm Group's calculation of these non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to the calculation of similarly titled measures reported by other companies.
Although we use EBITDA and EBITDA As Defined as measures to assess the performance of our business and for the other purposes set forth above, the use of these non-GAAP financial measures as analytical tools has limitations, and you should not consider any of them in isolation, or as a substitute for analysis of our results of operations as reported in accordance with GAAP. Some of these limitations are:
