Adjusted net income, adjusted net income per share, adjusted operating income, EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, organic sales growth and organic order growth are not financial measures calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). See below for a description of the measures' usefulness and a reconciliation of these measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures.
"We are pleased with our second quarter results," said John Young, President and CEO of Colfax Corporation. "We continue to benefit from the global investment in infrastructure and the robust demand for our fluid handling products across our key strategic markets. Our strong organic growth rate of 18% was driven by demand in our commercial marine, power generation and general industrial end markets. Trends in order rates and backlog remain favorable with orders up 34% for the quarter and backlog reaching an all-time high of $384 million at quarter-end. With these positive market trends and our strengthened balance sheet resulting from our successful IPO, we believe we are well positioned to execute our strategic initiatives and are on track to deliver low double digit organic sales growth for the balance of the year."
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Colfax has provided in this press release financial information that has not been prepared in accordance with GAAP. These non-GAAP financial measures are adjusted net income, adjusted net income per share, adjusted operating income, EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, organic sales growth and organic order growth. Adjusted net income, adjusted net income per share, adjusted operating income and adjusted EBITDA exclude asbestos liability and defense cost (income) and asbestos coverage litigation expense, certain legacy legal charges, as well as one time initial public offering-related costs. Adjusted net income also reflects interest expense as if the offering had occurred at the beginning of the period and presents income taxes at an effective tax rate of 34%. Organic sales growth and organic order growth exclude the impact of acquisitions and foreign exchange rate fluctuations. These non-GAAP financial measures assist Colfax in comparing its operating performance on a consistent basis because, among other things, they remove the impact of capital structure, asset base, non-recurring items such as IPO related costs, legacy asbestos issues (except in the case of EBITDA) and items outside the control of its operating management team.
Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, financial information calculated in accordance with GAAP. Investors are encouraged to review the reconciliation of these non-GAAP measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures. A reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures presented above to GAAP results has been provided in the financial tables included in this press release.
