Fiscal 2020 Outlook

The Company updated its fiscal 2020 projections of 90 days ago to adjust for the closing of a recent acquisition and the impact of recently completed financing activities.


•	Forecast sales of $3.0 billion;


•	Forecast full year operating margins of 11.3%;


•	Forecast effective tax rate of 25.3%;


•	Forecast diluted earnings per share of $5.50, plus or minus $0.20;

“We’re very pleased with our first quarter results,” said John Scannell, Chairman and CEO. “Sales were up 11% and earnings per share were 18% higher relative to last year’s first quarter. Defense sales were strong across all our applications and we recently completed a very successful senior notes offering. We’re adjusting our forecast for the

full year slightly, increasing our sales outlook by $35 million to account for the GAT acquisition. We’re also decreasing our EPS guidance by $0.05 to account for the combined impact of our recent debt offering and our share buyback activity.”

In the first quarter of FY 2020, the Company changed its method of accounting for the determination of the market-related value of certain assets of the qualified U.S. defined benefit plan. This change in accounting principle is preferable based on U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. The change requires retrospective application. The impact of adoption for Q1 FY 2019 was ($0.03) per share and for all of FY 2019 the impact of adoption was ($0.15) per share.

In conjunction with today’s release, Moog will host a conference call beginning at 10:00 a.m. ET, which will be broadcast live over the Internet. John Scannell, Chairman and CEO, and Jennifer Walter, CFO, will host the call.
