"Stanley Black & Decker delivered record revenue and earnings growth in 2021 supported by robust customer demand and our growing portfolio of product innovations," said Stanley Black & Decker's CEO Jim Loree. "We completed 2021 with a series of strategic transactions that focused our core business, including establishing Stanley Black & Decker as a global leader in the $25 billion outdoor power equipment market as well as announcing the pending sale of our electronic security business. The actions strengthen our number one position in tools, while also allowing us to return approximately $4 billion in value to our shareholders in 2022 through active stock repurchases."

"While we continued to navigate an extremely dynamic supply chain and inflationary environment as the year progressed, we are focused on even stronger day-to-day operational execution, inventory management and pricing realization. Most importantly, we are leveraging key investments in product innovation, strategic growth initiatives as well as capacity expansions to better serve our customers who are experiencing unprecedented demand. We are well positioned with a more focused portfolio that provides us a compelling multi-year runway for growth, margin expansion and long-term shareholder value creation," concluded Loree.

4Q'21 Key Points:

  • Net sales for the quarter were $4.1 billion, up 2% versus prior year as price (+5%) and acquisitions (+6%) were partially offset by lower volume (-8%) and currency (-1%). Volume was impacted by a series of logistical and other supply chain challenges.
  • The gross margin for the quarter was 28.3%. Excluding charges, gross margin* was 29.0%, down 630 basis points from prior year as price realization was more than offset primarily by commodity inflation, higher supply chain costs to serve demand and lower volumes.
  • Growth investments were deployed across the businesses, with SG&A 23.3% of sales. Excluding charges, SG&A expenses* were 20.0% of sales, relatively consistent with 3Q'21.
  • The tax rate was (79.3%). Excluding charges, tax rate* was (31.7%) due to the realization of certain income tax credits versus 13.9% in 4Q'20.
  • Full year free cash was $144 million primarily due to a $1.8 billion increase in inventory, excluding acquisitions, to support the strong demand outlook and longer lead times related to the challenged global supply chain. This included a substantial increase in inventory in transit of $600 million as well as higher unit costs associated with the inflation. At least $500 million of this inventory increase is anticipated to reverse in 2022.

Donald Allan Jr., President and CFO, commented, "In 2021, we delivered 17% organic revenue growth with operating profit expansion and 30% adjusted EPS growth.  While we were not satisfied with the fourth quarter volume and cash flow performance driven by the constrained and congested supply chain, we are confident in the steps we have taken and are continuing to take.  We exit the year having implemented price increases to mitigate inflationary impacts while improving efficiencies  and investing in expanded capacity to support the continued growth we project in 2022 and beyond. 

"Going forward, the organization is focused on driving above market organic growth, delivering on our price and cost control measures, successfully integrating MTD and Excel into the portfolio and leveraging the SBD Operating Model to improve our working capital efficiency in 2022.  We expect executing on these actions, as well as on our $4 billion allocation to repurchase shares, will deliver total revenue growth in the mid-twenties, 15% to 19% adjusted earnings per share growth and a strong free cash flow performance in 2022."

  • Tools & Storage net sales increased 3% versus 4Q'20 as the acquisitions of MTD and Excel (+7%) and price (+5%) were partially offset by lower volume (-8%) and currency (-1%). Regional organic growth was strong in the emerging markets (+7%), with weaker performances in North America (-5%) and Europe (-4%) due to 2020 holiday shipment timing and supply-related volume constraints. Pricing actions delivered strong mid-single digit growth in response to commodity inflation and higher costs to serve. End-user demand remained strong across all markets driven by the consumer reconnection with the home and garden and eCommerce. Point-of-sale demand grew high-single digits in U.S. retail and channel inventory continued to be below historical levels. Emerging markets growth was experienced across all regions and was led by continued strong professional demand. The Tools & Storage segment profit rate, excluding charges, was 11.4%, down from 20.5% in 4Q'20, as price benefits were more than offset by inflation, higher pandemic-related supply chain costs, growth investments and lower volume.
  • Industrial net sales declined 7% versus 4Q'20 as price (+3%) was more than offset by volume (-9%) and currency (-1%). Engineered Fastening organic growth was down 9% as strong general industrial growth was offset by market-driven aerospace declines and lower automotive OEM production resulting from the global semiconductor shortage. Infrastructure organic revenues were up 3%, as 18% growth in Attachment Tools was partially offset by significantly lower pipeline project activity in Oil & Gas. The Industrial segment profit rate, excluding charges, was 9.3%, down versus 14.5% in 4Q'20, as the benefits from price were more than offset by commodity inflation and lower volume in higher-margin automotive and aerospace fasteners.

2022 Outlook

Management expects 2022 EPS to be in the range of $10.10 to $10.70 on a GAAP basis, and between $12.00 to $12.50 on an adjusted basis, reflecting year-over-year adjusted EPS growth of 15% to 19%. Free cash flow is expected to approximate $2.0 billion as the Company focuses on serving its customers while leveraging the SBD Operating Model to drive working capital efficiency.

The following represents key 2022 adjusted EPS assumptions at the midpoint:

  • Price of 6% to 7% to exceed carryover headwinds, +$1.20 to +$1.30
  • Carryover growth investments, net of cost containment -$0.20
  • Outdoor acquisition accretion, +$0.60
  • 2022 impact of share repurchase program, offsetting tax rate and other below the line items, +$0.10

The difference between 2022 GAAP and adjusted EPS guidance is $1.80 to $1.90, consisting of acquisition-related and other charges.  These forecasted charges primarily relate to integration costs and cost reduction actions.    

Acquisition-Related And Other Charges

Total pre-tax acquisition-related and other charges in 4Q'21 were $105.0 million, primarily related to a non-cash fair value adjustment, non-cash inventory step-up charges, deal costs, and restructuring partially offset by a gain on investment. Gross profit included $28.2 million of these charges while SG&A included $132.2 million. Other, net included a gain of $54.1 million and Restructuring included $1.7 million of these charges. Acquisition-related and other charges also included a $3.0 million pre-tax gain related to a business divested during the fourth quarter.

Non-GAAP Fin ancial Measures
Organic sales growth, or organic growth, is defined as the difference between total current and prior year sales less the impact of companies acquired and divested in the past twelve months and any foreign currency impacts divided by prior year sales. Operating profit is defined as sales less cost of sales and selling, general and administrative expenses. Operating margin is operating profit as a percentage of sales. Operating profit and operating margin are shown both inclusive and exclusive of acquisition-related and other charges. Management uses operating profit and operating margin as key measures to assess the performance of the Company as a whole, as well as the related measures at the segment level. Diluted EPS, excluding charges, or adjusted EPS, is diluted GAAP EPS excluding the impacts of acquisition-related and other charges. Free cash flow is defined as cash flow from operations less capital and software expenditures. Management considers free cash flow an important indicator of its liquidity, as well as its ability to fund future growth and to provide a return to the shareowners, and is useful information for investors. Free cash flow does not include deductions for mandatory debt service, other borrowing activity, discretionary dividends on the Company's common and preferred stock and business acquisitions, among other items.  Free cash flow conversion is defined as free cash flow divided by net income. The Non-GAAP statement of operations and business segment information is reconciled to GAAP on pages 12 through 15. The Company considers the use of the Non-GAAP financial measures above relevant to aid analysis and understanding of the Company's results, business trends and outlook measures aside from the material impact of acquisition-related and other charges and ensures appropriate comparability to operating results of prior periods.

Free cash flow is defined as cash flow from operations less capital and software expenditures. Management considers free cash flow an important measure of its
liquidity, as well as its ability to fund future growth and to provide a return to the shareowners, and is useful information for investors. Free cash flow does not
include deductions for mandatory debt service, other borrowing activity, discretionary dividends on the Company's common and preferred stock and business a
cquisitions, among other items.
