Regulatory News:
Gilles Schnepp, Chairman and CEO of Legrand (Paris:LR), commented:
“Steep rise in total sales
In the first nine months of the year, Group sales were up +7.7% in total, supported by its two growth drivers.
Organic growth in sales thus stood at +2.9%, driven by good showings in new economies (+4.8%) and solid increases in mature countries (+2.1%), despite, as announced4, unfavorable effects related to calendar impacts and bases for comparison in the third quarter.
The impact of the broader scope of consolidation resulting from acquisitions was +4.4% in the first nine months of the year, and should reach over +7% full year.
Double-digit growth in profit and normalized free cash flow
At the same time, adjusted operating profit rose by +10.0% and adjusted operating margin before acquisitions (at 2016 scope of consolidation) stood at 20.6% of sales compared with 20.0% in the first nine months of 2016, a rise of 0.6 points.
Net profit attributable to the Group and normalized free cash flow increased +11.4% and +12.2%, respectively, compared with the first nine months of 2016.
These very good showings reflect once again Legrand’s ability to create value over the long term by expanding its positions.
1 Taking into account all acquisitions announced and their likely consolidation dates, the expected impact of the broader scope of consolidation is more than +7% per year in 2017 and 2018. Over two years, it should thus stand at close to +15% in 2018, compared with 2016.2 Targets announced on February 9, 2017.3 At 2016 scope of consolidation.4 For more details, see July 31, 2017 press release announcing 2017 first-half results.
Rise in investments dedicated to new products
Legrand remained very active in innovation, with investments dedicated to new products up nearly +27% from the first nine months of 2016. These initiatives help expand the Group’s offering, particularly for digital infrastructure products and connected solutions with enhanced value in use under the Eliot program, which is being rolled out in new geographical areas this year.
Strong contribution of acquisitions to sales growth expected
Legrand has stepped up the pace of its external growth since the beginning of the year.
The Group has thus acquired five companies and, in Italy, signed a joint-venture, resulting in stronger positions in business fields buoyed by technological and societal megatrends that represent long term development opportunities.
This sustained acquisition momentum should drive external growth to over +7% in both 2017 and 20181, adding nearly +15% to the Group’s growth over two years1.”
2017 minimum targets raised
Based on good performances in the first nine months and taking into account expected effects for the fourth quarter2, Legrand is raising its minimum targets for the year and setting new targets for 2017:
- organic growth in sales of between +2% and +3% (initially3 between 0% and +3%) and
- adjusted operating margin before acquisitions (at 2016 scope of consolidation) of between 19.8% and 20.1% of sales (initially3 between 19.3% and 20.1%).

Financial performance at September 30, 2017
Consolidated sales
Sales in the first nine months of 2017 totaled €3,988.3 million, up a steep +7.7% from the first nine months of 2016.
Organic growth in sales stood at +2.9% for the period, reflecting good showings in new economies (+4.8%) and solid results in mature economies (+2.1%), despite, as announced, the unfavorable effects related to calendar impacts and bases for comparison in the third quarter, in the United States in particular.
The impact of the broader scope of consolidation resulting from acquisitions was +4.4%. Taking into account all acquisitions announced and their likely consolidation dates, the expected impact of the broader scope of consolidation is more than +7% per year in 2017 and 2018. Over two years, it should thus stand at close to +15% in 2018, compared with 2016.
The exchange-rate effect was +0.1%. Applying average exchange rates for October 2017 to the last three months of the year, the annual exchange-rate effect for 2017 would be around -1%.
Changes in sales by destination at constant scope of consolidation and exchange rates broke down as follows by region:
9 months 2017 / 9 months 2016 3rd quarter 2017 / 3rd quarter 2016 France +2.3% +3.2% Italy +3.5% +4.3% Rest of Europe +5.4% +5.2%North and Central America1

-0.7% (+7.1% over 2 years)2 Rest of the world +3.4% +4.0% Total +2.9% +2.4%(1) Milestone was not consolidated in the first nine months 2017 statement of income. For more details on the timeline for consolidation of Milestone, the reader is invited to refer to pages 9 and 10 of this press release.(2) As announced, 2016, and the third quarter in particular, represent demanding bases for comparison. As a result, over two years, organic growth in the North and Central America region was +8.1% compared with the first nine months of 2015 and +7.1% compared with the third quarter of 2015. For more details, the reader is invited to refer to comments on Legrand’s performance in North and Central America on page 4 of this press release.
These changes at constant scope of consolidation and exchange rates are analyzed below by geographical region:
- France (16.8% of Group sales): organic growth in sales in France stood at +2.3% in the first nine months of 2017.
This increase in sales was driven by healthy growth in new residential construction (between 15% and 20% of French sales). Non-residential new construction activities grew but at an uneven pace, while renovation increased more moderately.
- Italy (9.9% of Group sales): at constant scope of consolidation and exchange rates, sales were up +3.5% in Italy.
These good showings were driven in particular by the success of new product offerings including (i) the Classe 300X connected door entry system and the My Home Up home system, both launched in 2016, as well as (ii) the Smarther connected thermostat, introduced in the second quarter of this year.
- Rest of Europe (17.4% of Group sales): at constant scope of consolidation and exchange rates, sales were up +5.4% from the first nine months of 2016.
Many countries in new economies recorded good showings. This was the case in Eastern Europe, including Russia, Romania and Hungary.
In Turkey, sales were also up, driven by a third-quarter performance that benefited from a favorable basis for comparison.
Sales growth was also solid in a number of mature countries, including Spain, Greece, Belgium and Austria.
In the United Kingdom (less than 2.5% of Group sales), after a sustained increase in sales in the first half, business retreated slightly in the third quarter alone.
- North and Central America (31.2% of Group sales): at constant scope of consolidation and exchange rates, sales were up +1.5% in the first nine months of 2017.
Over two years, organic growth in North and Central America was +8.1% compared with the first nine months of 2015, and +7.1% compared with the third quarter of 2015.
As a reminder, 2016, and the third quarter1 in particular, represent demanding bases for comparison in the United States, the main country in this region.
As a result, in the United States alone2, organic growth in the first nine months of the year stood at +0.6% (+7.6% over two years compared with the first nine months of 2015) and the trend in organic sales was
-2.2% in the third quarter (+6.9% over two years compared with the third quarter of 2015).
In the rest of the region, Mexico and Canada turned in good showings in the first nine months of 2017.
- Rest of the World (24.7% of Group sales): organic growth was up +3.4% from the first nine months of 2016.
A number of countries in Asia turned in solid showings, including China, South Korea and Singapore. The Group also reported robust growth in sales in North African countries3.
More particularly, in India sales also rose compared with the first nine months of 2016, driven by good third-quarter showings following the temporary slowdown in the second quarter linked to the application of the GST4.
Lastly, sales retreated in certain countries in the region, including Brazil, Australia, Malaysia and Thailand.
1 Excerpt from the comment on the United States performance published on July 31, 2017: “As a reminder (i) the calendar effect should be unfavorable in the third quarter, and (ii) growth stood at +9.3% in the third quarter of 2016, benefiting from favorable one-offs (excluding these effects, the rise in sales would have been in the neighborhood of 3%) hence representing a demanding basis for comparison for the third quarter of 2017.”.2 Milestone will be consolidated in the Group’s statement of income in the fourth quarter for a period of five months. For more information on Milestone, including expected sales growth seasonality in 2017, the reader is invited to refer to pages 9 and 10 of this press release.3 North Africa = Algeria + Egypt + Morocco + Tunisia.4 GST: Goods and Services Tax.
Adjusted operating profit and margin
Adjusted operating profit stood at €814.9 million in the first nine months of 2017, up +10.0%, reflecting the Group’s ability to generate value through profitable growth and an ongoing productivity approach.
Adjusted operating margin before acquisitions1 was 20.6% of sales in the first nine months of 2017, up 0.6 points from the first nine months of 2016.
This reflects the Group’s ongoing good operating performance for +0.5 points as well as a net favorable
non-recurring effect of around +0.1 points (coming from the impact of inventory build-up in finished and
semi-finished goods estimated at +0.2 points, partially offset by the unfavorable effect of non-recurring items for around -0.1 points).
Taking acquisitions into account, adjusted operating margin stood at 20.4% of sales.
In the first nine months, by reacting quickly to adjust its price lists quarter by quarter, Legrand more than offset, in absolute value, the impact of the marked rise in raw material and component prices – a rise that stabilized in the third quarter.
Net profit attributable to the Group
Over the first nine months of 2017, net profit attributable to the Group rose +11.4% compared with the first nine months of 2016 and stood at €474.3 million, reflecting:
- a good operating performance, with a €68.8 million improvement in operating profit;
- an €11.5 million decrease in net financial expense;
- a €0.7 million decline in profit to minority interests;
partially offset by:
- a €24.9 million rise in income tax expense (the tax rate stood at 33.0%, almost stable compared with that for 2016);
- a €6.1 million unfavorable change in the foreign-exchange result; and
- a €1.3 million decline in the result of equity-accounted entities.
Cash generation
Cash flow from operations stood at €656.1 million and represents 16.5% of sales. It increased by over +12% in the first nine months of 2017.
Working capital requirement as a percentage of sales for the last twelve months remained under control at 8.9% on September 30, 2017.
Industrial investments stood at €105.9 million in the first nine months of 2017, up €11.5 million compared with the first nine months of 2016. The rise should continue, driven in particular by new-product momentum as well as by investments in industrial and commercial productivity.
Normalized free cash flow came to €541.5 million in the first nine months, up +12.2%, and includes
€2.9 million realized non-recurring foreign-exchange gains.
At the same time, free cash flow stood at €415.0 million compared with €424.2 million in the first nine months of 2016. This change reflects:
offset by:
1 At 2016 scope of consolidation.
Ongoing innovation initiatives
With a rise of close to +27% in investments dedicated to new products compared with the first nine months of 2016, Legrand remained very active in innovation.
The Group thus broadened its offering with new solutions that fuel current and future growth. For example, Legrand has launched:
Legrand is also actively preparing to launch its new “Céliane with Netatmo” range of user interfaces in early 2018. This offering already equips pilot residential real estate programs in France in partnership with BNP Paribas Real Estate and Vinci Immobilier.
Product launches completed and planned testify to the ongoing enhancement of Legrand’s offering, particularly with ranges designed for digital infrastructure, a business driven by the development of connected products. Here Legrand is continuing to strengthen its Eliot program with new higher
value-in-use solutions.
Together these initiatives reflect Legrand’s commitment to be a long-term player in the development of the smart building.
External growth
Since the beginning of the year, Legrand has also pursued its strategy of bolt-on acquisitions of companies that round out its activities, in a globally favorable economic environment. This has resulted in five acquisitions and one joint-venture.
The Group has continued a focused drive to build strong positions in segments of its market driven by technological and societal megatrends. On an annual basis, this year’s acquisitions should help raise the share of Group sales made in new business segments1 to around 38%2 and the percentage of Group sales made with products ranked #1 or #2 in their respective markets to around 69%2.
Looking more closely, Legrand has acquired three companies specializing in digital infrastructures, a business sustained by rising data flows and a shift to new uses:
The Group also acquired two companies specializing in specification-grade architectural lighting for
non-residential buildings in the US:
1 Digital infrastructure, energy efficiency, assisted living and home systems.2 Based on 2016 sales including 12 months of acquisitions made in 2016 and 2017.3 Milestone will be consolidated in the Group’s statement of income in the fourth quarter for a period of five months. For more information on Milestone, including expected sales growth seasonality in 2017, the reader is invited to refer to pages 9 and 10 of this press release.4 PDU: Power Distribution Unit.
Legrand has also signed a joint-venture with Borri1, an Italian company specializing in three-phase UPS2.
Taking into account all acquisitions announced and their likely consolidation dates, the expected impact of the broader scope of consolidation is more than +7% per year in 2017 and 2018. Over two years, it should thus stand at close to +15% in 2018, compared with 2016. For 2017 as a whole, dilution of the adjusted operating margin due to acquisitions should be around -0.1 points.
1 As Legrand’s equity stake is 49%, Borri will be consolidated on the equity method.2 Uninterruptible Power Supply.

Sales
Milestone operates in a buoyant market driven by both social megatrends (communication, security, distance and collaborative working etc.) and technological megatrends (digitalization, new display technologies, streaming technologies etc.), but with a business that, by its nature, can fluctuate in the short term (projects, retail, etc.):
