For immediate release
Smiths Group Q1 Trading Statement
Smiths Group plc ("Smiths" or "the Group") today announces its trading statement for the first quarter of FY2021.
Smiths delivered a good trading performance in the first quarter. In a period of ongoing global disruption, the Group continues to demonstrate its resilience, founded on market-leading positions and a high proportion of aftermarket revenues.
Revenue for the three months ended 31 October for Continuing Operations(1) was down (2)% on an underlying(2) basis. This underpins the Group's confidence in meeting market expectations for the full year.
-- John Crane performed as expected, with challenging market conditions in Energy, partially offset by modest growth in Industrials
-- Smiths Detection delivered a strong performance in Aviation during the quarter, driven by delivery of original equipment orders, which was offset by Other Security Systems
-- Flex-Tek delivered strong Industrial sales that more than offset Aerospace weakness -- Good momentum continued in Smiths Interconnect
Revenue for the three months ended 31 October for Smiths Medical(1) was up 4% on an underlying(2) basis driven by further growth in Infusion Systems and Vital Care.
The Group's strategic restructuring programme is progressing well and will deliver the anticipated GBP30m of savings in the current year and the full GBP70m benefit in FY2022.
The Group continues to demonstrate its strong cash generation and cash balances at 31 October had increased to GBP413m.
On 27 October 2020, the Trustee of the Smiths Industries Pension Scheme secured a further GBP146.5m bulk annuity buy-in agreement with Canada Life, which insured the benefits of a further c.1,000 pensioners, demonstrating further progress in the de-risking of the Company's pension liabilities.
(1) Continuing Operations exclude Smiths Medical which is accounted for as 'Discontinued Operations - businesses
held for distribution to owners', given the intended separation of Smiths Medical.
(2) Underlying modifies headline performance to exclude the effects of foreign exchange.
