Message from the CEO
We exited our 2nd quarter with a renewed sense of optimism as our incoming order rate approached pre-pandemic levels. COVID-19 adversely impacted our revenue in Q2, but lower costs including commodities led to another quarter of strong cash flow. We generated $217M of operating cash flows in H1. We continue to flex manufacturing capacity to match demand, minimizing manufacturing inefficiency while benefiting from raw material cost reductions. The company remains vigilant about employee safety and is monitoring globally any potentially worsening impacts from the pandemic.
Of our three lines of business, Motive Power remains most affected by COVID-19, but is improving rapidly. Our Energy Systems business held up well as telecommunications operators continue to expand their capacity and continue their 5G rollouts in a measured fashion. Cable operators have remained sluggish related to power supply purchases, but have been very active in recent spectrum auctions boding well for the future. Our Specialty business has benefited from several new aftermarket transportation contracts and renewed demand from over-the-road truck manufacturers. Specialty’s defense unit also won several large multi-year development contracts for batteries on guided munitions again this quarter.
To offset the year over year reduction in revenue, we have taken multiple initiatives to flex our operational expenses. These expenses not only decreased by nearly $13 million for the quarter from the prior year, but as a percentage of sales it improved by 60 bps. As a result, in our second fiscal quarter, we halved the decrease in operating earnings as a percentage of sales from the prior year while posting a sequential improvement of 60 bps. In addition, we have announced the restructuring of our Motive Power business in EMEA with the closure of our Hagen, Germany manufacturing facility. We expect this restructuring will allow the company to save nearly $20 million per year, with an anticipated 3.5 year cash payback.
Our new products and other strategic initiatives will soon become significant sources of additional profitability in addition to improved market conditions. This has occurred through tremendous efforts and sacrifices made by EnerSys colleagues during these trying times. We have strengthened measures to protect ourselves against COVID-19, implementing enhanced health and safety protocols at our facilities around the world. Our employees have responded very well to these challenges.
This second quarter closes out a trying first half of our fiscal year 2021. We have weathered significant headwinds while remaining focused on our strategy and execution. We now have the confidence to resume providing guidance for our upcoming fiscal quarter and we expect to achieve as-adjusted earnings of between $1.17 to $1.23 per share in our third fiscal quarter.
David M. Shaffer, President and Chief Executive Officer, EnerSys

* This is a non-GAAP financial measure. See “Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” for more information.
** Please refer to Item 1. Financial Statements, Consolidated Condensed Statement of Cash Flows set forth in EnerSys’ Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the second quarter ended October 4, 2020.
Net earnings attributable to EnerSys stockholders (“Net earnings”) for the second quarter of fiscal 2021 was $35.7 million, or $0.83 per diluted share, which included an unfavorable highlighted net of tax impact of $7.5 million, or $0.17 per diluted share, from highlighted items described in further detail in the tables shown below, reconciling non-GAAP adjusted financial measures to reported amounts.
Net earnings for the second quarter of fiscal 2020 were $62.7 million, or $1.47 per diluted share, which included a favorable highlighted net of tax impact of $10.0 million, or $0.24 per diluted share from highlighted items described in further detail in the tables shown below, reconciling non-GAAP adjusted financial measures to reported amounts.
Excluding these highlighted items, adjusted Net earnings per diluted share for the second quarter of fiscal 2021, on a non-GAAP basis, were $1.00.
These earnings compare to the prior year second quarter adjusted Net earnings of $1.23 per diluted share. Please refer to the section included herein under the heading “Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” for a discussion of the Company’s use of non-GAAP adjusted financial information, which includes tables reconciling GAAP and non-GAAP adjusted financial measures for the quarters ended October 4, 2020 and September 29, 2019.
Net sales for the second quarter of fiscal 2021 were $708.4 million, a decrease of 7% from the prior year second quarter net sales of $762.1 million and remained relatively flat sequentially from the first quarter of fiscal 2021 net sales of $704.9 million. The decrease from the prior year quarter was the result of a 11% decrease in organic volume and a 1% decrease in pricing, partially offset by a 4% increase from the NorthStar acquisition and a 1% increase in foreign currency translation impact. The sequential flatness was the result of a combined 2% decrease in organic volume and pricing offset by a 2% increase in foreign currency translation impact.
On July 6, 2020, the Company announced that it was changing its reportable segments, beginning with its first quarter of fiscal 2021, from being based on geographic regions to lines of business. The new reportable segments are Energy Systems (which includes energy solutions related to telecommunications systems, uninterruptible power systems, and other power applications), Motive Power (which includes power for electric industrial forklifts used in manufacturing, warehousing and other material handling applications, as well as mining equipment, diesel locomotive starting and other rail equipment) and Specialty (which includes energy solutions for transportation, satellites, military aircraft, submarines, ships and other tactical vehicles). Prior year quarter and year to date financial information has been restated to reflect the new reportable segments.
The Company’s operating results for its business segments for the second quarters of fiscal 2021 and 2020 are as follows:

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This press release contains financial information determined by methods other than in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, (“GAAP”). EnerSys’ management uses the non-GAAP measures “adjusted Net earnings” and “adjusted operating earnings” as applicable, in their analysis of the Company’s performance. This measure, as used by EnerSys in past quarters and years, adjusts operating earnings and Net earnings determined in accordance with GAAP to reflect changes in financial results associated with the Company’s restructuring initiatives and other highlighted charges and income items. Management believes the presentation of these financial measures reflecting these non-GAAP adjustments provides important supplemental information in evaluating the operating results of the Company as distinct from results that include items that are not indicative of ongoing operating results and overall business performance; in particular, those charges that the Company incurs as a result of restructuring activities, impairment of goodwill and indefinite-lived intangibles and other assets, acquisition activities and those charges and credits that are not directly related to operating unit performance, such as significant legal proceedings, ERP system implementation, amortization of Alpha and NorthStar related intangible assets and tax valuation allowance changes, including those related to the adoption of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act in the United States and the Federal Act on Tax Reform and AHV Financing in Switzerland. Because these charges are not incurred as a result of ongoing operations, or are incurred as a result of a potential or previous acquisition, they are not as helpful a measure of the performance of our underlying business, particularly in light of their unpredictable nature and are difficult to forecast. Although we exclude the amortization of purchased intangibles from these non-GAAP measures, management believes that it is important for investors to understand that such intangible assets were recorded as part of purchase accounting and contribute to revenue generation.
Income tax effects of non-GAAP adjustments are calculated using the applicable statutory tax rate for the jurisdictions in which the charges (benefits) are incurred, while taking into consideration any valuation allowances. For those items which are non-taxable, the tax expense (benefit) is calculated at 0%.
These non-GAAP disclosures have limitations as an analytical tool, should not be viewed as a substitute for operating earnings or Net earnings determined in accordance with GAAP, and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of the Company’s results as reported under GAAP, nor are they necessarily comparable to non-GAAP performance measures that may be presented by other companies. Management believes that this non-GAAP supplemental information will be helpful in understanding the Company’s ongoing operating results. This supplemental presentation should not be construed as an inference that the Company’s future results will be unaffected by similar adjustments to Net earnings determined in accordance with GAAP.
A reconciliation of non-GAAP adjusted operating earnings is set forth in the table above, providing a reconciliation of non-GAAP adjusted operating earnings to the Company’s reported operating results for its business segments. Included below is a reconciliation of non-GAAP adjusted Net earnings to reported amounts. Non-GAAP adjusted operating earnings and Net earnings are calculated excluding restructuring and other highlighted charges and credits. The following tables provide additional information regarding certain non-GAAP measures:
