Delphi Technologies (DLPH) Misses on Q2 Earnings, Tweaks View

Delphi Technologies PLC DLPH reported disappointing second-quarter 2019 results wherein both earnings and revenues lagged the Zacks Consensus Estimate.

Adjusted earnings per share of 58 cents lagged the consensus mark by 4 cents and declined 55.1% on a year-over-year basis on unfavorable product mix, lower volume and unfavorable currency exchange movements, which were partially offset by improvements in operational performance.

Revenues of $1.12 billion missed the consensus estimate by $11 million and decreased 9% year over year on a reported basis and 5% on an adjusted basis (adjustments were made for currency exchange). The top line was hurt by lower sales in China and lower passenger car diesel revenues in Europe, which were, however, partially offset by mid-single digit growth in Commercial Vehicle and GDI along with improvement in aftermarket business.

Region-wise, revenue growth was 3% in South America. Europe revenues were flat year over year. Revenues from Asia Pacific and North America declined 10% each.

So far this year, shares of Delphi Technologies have gained 5.8% compared with 15.6% rise of the industry it belongs to.

 

Revenues in Detail

Segment-wise, Powertrain Systems revenues of $971 million decreased 10.5% year over year on a reported basis and 7% on an adjusted basis. In the reported quarter, lower revenues from the roll-offs in passenger car diesel in Europe, OEM customer decision to exit certain programs in North America and lower Power Electronics revenues partially offset growth in commercial vehicle and GDI.

Delphi Technologies Aftermarket revenues of $214 million declined marginally year over year on a reported basis but improved 3% on an adjusted basis as record sales to independent aftermarket customers more than offset lower OES revenues.

Operating Results

Adjusted operating income of $81 million decreased 48.1% from the prior-year quarter. Adjusted operating income margin decreased 550 basis points from the prior-year quarter to 7.2%.

Segment-wise, adjusted operating income of Powertrain Systems and Delphi Technologies Aftermarket came in at $64 million (down 52.2% y/y) and $17 million (down 22.7% y/y), respectively.
