DOVER CORPORATION REPORTS FIRST QUARTER 2012 RESULTS

● | Reports revenue of $2.1 billion, an increase of 14% over the prior year, including organic growth of 9%
● | Delivers quarterly diluted earnings per share from continuing operations of $1.05
● | Raises low end of guidance for full-year earnings per share from continuing operations; new range is $4.80 - $5.00

Downers Grove, Illinois, April 18, 2012 —Dover Corporation (NYSE: DOV) announced today that for the first quarter ended March 31, 2012, revenue was $2.1 billion, an increase of 14% over the prior-year period. The revenue increase was primarily driven by organic growth of 9% and a 5% increase from acquisitions. Earnings from continuing operations were $196.8 million, or $1.05 diluted earnings per share (“EPS”), compared to $174.8 million, or $0.92 EPS, in the prior-year period, representing increases in earnings from continuing operations and EPS of 13% and 14%, respectively. EPS from continuing operations increased 19% in the quarter, excluding the impact of tax benefits of $0.04 EPS recognized in the prior year period.
Commenting on the first quarter results, Dover’s President and Chief Executive Officer, Robert A. Livingston, said, “We are off to a great start in 2012 with strong revenue growth across the majority of our end-markets. Our 9% organic revenue growth for the quarter was driven by broad-based strength in energy, refrigeration and food equipment, handsets, fluids, and our industrial end-markets. Segment margin was 16.2%, led by our Energy and Engineered Systems segments, both of which exhibited strong operating leverage on volume. We saw a seasonal upswing in many of our businesses and finished with a solid book-to-bill of 1.06.”
“Dover continued to execute on our growth plans throughout the first quarter, including completing the acquisition of Maag Group. Maag, a leader in gear pumps for the plastics and petrochemical industries, is now part of our Fluid Solutions platform and will help expand our participation in the global fluids space. We also invested for growth through expansion of our international sales and service network, and strategic capital projects connected with the handset market. These capital projects will improve productivity, facilitate production of new design wins and help drive improved results in the back half of the year.”
“Looking forward, we now expect full year 2012 revenue growth of 10% - 12%, comprised of organic revenue growth of 5% - 7%, plus growth from completed acquisitions of 5%. Based on this revenue assumption, we expect full-year diluted EPS from continuing operations to be in the range of $4.80 - $5.00, which represents a $0.10 increase from the low-end of our prior guidance.”
Net earnings for the first quarter of 2012 were $196.1 million or $1.05 EPS, including a net loss from discontinued operations of $0.7 million, compared to net earnings of $194.9 million, or $1.03 EPS, for the same period of 2011, which included a gain from discontinued operations of $20.1 million, or $0.11 EPS.
Dover will host a webcast of its first quarter 2012 conference call at 10:00 A.M. Eastern Time (9:00 A.M. Central Time) on Wednesday, April 18, 2012. The webcast can be accessed at the Dover Corporation website at www.dovercorporation.com. The conference call will also be made available for replay on the website.
