The effective tax rate for the second quarter 2014 was 26.5% compared to 25.0% for the second quarter 2013. The change from the prior year was primarily driven by an increase in the Mexican statutory tax rate in 2014 and a 2013 retroactive benefit of $0.9 million from the qualification for a China high technology incentive.
For the second quarter 2014, net cash provided by operating activities was $99.5 million. For the second quarter 2014, free cash flow* represented 140.4% of net income attributable to Regal Beloit.
Gliebe continued, "In the third quarter, we expect modest growth in our HVAC businesses, strength in our mechanical business and relatively flat performance in our commercial and industrial businesses. Overall, we anticipate modest organic revenue growth in the third quarter but we expect operating margin headwinds from lower sales and profits in our Venezuelan operations and a delay in the benefits from one of our manufacturing plant transitions. In the third quarter, we expect diluted earnings per share to be $1.05 to $1.13. Adding back $0.05 of estimated restructuring expenses and $0.02 of purchase accounting adjustments, adjusted diluted earnings per share is expected to be $1.12 to $1.20."

Unaudited |
(Dollars in Millions) |
We prepare financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP). We also disclose adjusted diluted earnings per share (EPS), adjusted gross profit, adjusted gross profit as a percentage of net sales, adjusted income from operations, free cash flow and free cash flow as a percentage of net income attributable to Regal Beloit Corporation (collectively, "non-GAAP financial measures"). We use these measures in our internal performance reporting and for reports to the Board of Directors. We also periodically disclose certain of these measures in our quarterly earnings releases, on investor conference calls, and in investor presentations and similar events. We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures are useful measures for providing investors with additional insight into our operating performance. This additional information is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for our results of operations prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP. Free cash flow is defined as net cash provided by operating activities less additions to property, plant and equipment adjusted for grants received for capital expenditures. |
