Regal Beloit Corporation (RBC - Free Report) yesterday announced the planned changes to its power transmission business. The changes are subject to the consummation of the deal signed between the company and Rexnord Corporation in February 2021.
The company’s shares lost 1.97% yesterday, ending the trading session at $147.09.
Inside the Headlines
Before discussing about the announcement, let’s check out in brief some details of the deal signed in February.
The agreement was signed to combine Regal Beloit’s operations with Rexnord’s Process & Motion Control (“PMC”) segment. The transaction has been valued at $3.69 billion. Rexnord’s PMC segment engages in designing and manufacturing mechanical components used in complex systems. End markets served include agriculture, food and beverage, general industrial, aerospace, mining, petrochemical, and energy.
The transaction, to be completed in second-half of 2021, is anticipated to boost Regal Beloit’s product line and enhance its position as a major provider of power transmission solutions. The transaction will also strengthen its market presence and shareholder value. As noted, within three years of completion, the deal is likely to generate cost savings of $120 million for Regal Beloit. Adjusted earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization are expected to be in excess of $1 billion in 2022.
Post the completion of the deal, Regal Beloit’s shareholders will own 61.4% of the combined entity (“New Regal”), while the rest 38.6% will be owned by Rexnord’s shareholders.
Per Regal Beloit’s planned changes, its power transmission business will comprise its existing Power Transmission Solutions segment and Rexnord’s PMC segment upon closing of the deal. The combined business will be grouped under Motion Control Solutions (“MCS”) segment.
In addition, Regal Beloit noted that the MCS segment will be led by Kevin J. Zaba and its president, Integration will be Jerry Morton. While Zaba is currently capacitated as president of PMC, Morton is the current president of PTS.
Zacks Rank, Estimates and Price Performance
With a market capitalization of $5.5 billion, Regal Beloit currently carries a Zacks Rank #2 (Buy). In 2021, the company anticipates benefiting from strengthening end markets and margin improvements. It expects adjusted earnings per share to be $8.70-$9.00, reflecting growth of 53% (at the mid-point) from the previous year. Sales are expected to grow in high-teens on a year-over-year basis.
In the past three months, the company’s shares have increased 5.8% compared with the industry’s growth of 7.1%.
Meanwhile, the Zacks Consensus Estimate for its earnings is pegged at $8.85 for 2021 and $9.68 for 2022, reflecting growth of 13% and 11.9% from the respective 30-day-ago figures. Also, the estimate for the third quarter is pegged at $2.34, increasing 21.9% from the 30-day-ago figures.
Zacks Names "Single Best Pick to Double"
From thousands of stocks, 5 Zacks experts each have chosen their favorite to skyrocket +100% or more in months to come. From those 5, Director of Research Sheraz Mian hand-picks one to have the most explosive upside of all.
It’s a little-known chemical company that’s up 65% over last year, yet still dirt cheap. With unrelenting demand, soaring 2022 earnings estimates, and $1.5 billion for repurchasing shares, retail investors could jump in at any time.
This company could rival or surpass other recent Zacks’ Stocks Set to Double like Boston Beer Company which shot up +143.0% in little more than 9 months and NVIDIA which boomed +175.9% in one year.
