Praxair Inc. Research Report

On July 24, 2013, Praxair Inc. (Praxair) reported its Q2 2013 financial results. Sales were up 7.2% YoY to $3.0 billion. Net income was up 3.7% YoY to $445 million, while diluted EPS was up 4.9% YoY to $1.49. Steve Angel, Chairman, President, and CEO of Praxair, commented, "Our on-site business continued to be very strong with improving volumes to the energy, chemicals and metals industries across the Americas and Asia. Merchant deliveries continued to grow modestly with stable demand from healthcare and food and beverage. However, packaged gas demand weakened slightly due to poor overall business confidence and lower private and public spending on construction and capital projects. In the near term, we expect these trends to continue with the strongest growth in chemicals, energy and emerging markets. Fortunately, we are well positioned geographically and have a strong backlog of large on-site projects being readied for start-up."

Adjusted diluted income per share was $0.39, compared to $0.61 in Q2 2012. Commenting on the results, Peter R. Huntsman, President and CEO, said, "I am pleased with the quality of our second quarter results. Excluding the approximate $25 million negative impact from the force majeure at our European MDI facility, and with the exception of our TiO2 Pigments division, all of our divisions improved year over year and compared to the prior quarter's performance. We are starting to see the benefits of our restructuring efforts within our Textile Effects and Advanced Materials divisions. I am also impressed with the strong earnings from our Performance Products division following the planned maintenance closure earlier in the year. While many areas of the global economy continue to moderate or languish, between new products, our focus on growing sectors and our further cost reduction efforts, we believe that we will see an improving second half of the year."
