Bombardier today reported its financial results for the third quarter ended
September 30, 2013. Revenues totalled $4.1 billion for the quarter, compared to
$4.2 billion for the same period last fiscal year.
For the third quarter ended September 30, 2013, earnings before financing
expense, financing income and income taxes (EBIT) totalled $210 million, or
5.2% of revenues, compared to $240 million, or 5.7%, for the same period last
year.
On an adjusted basis, net income amounted to $165 million, or earnings per share
(EPS) of $0.09, for the third quarter ended September 30, 2013, compared to $173
million, or EPS of $0.09, for the same period the previous year.
For the three-month period ended September 30, 2013, free cash flow usage (cash
flows from operating activities less net additions to property, plant and
equipment and intangible assets) amounted to $522 million, compared to a usage
of $187 million for the same period last year. As at September 30, 2013,
available short-term capital resources of $4.0 billion included cash and cash
equivalents of $2.6 billion, the same levels as compared to December 31, 2012.
The overall backlog reached $65.5 billion as at September 30, 2013, compared to
$64.9 billion as at December 31, 2012.
"In Aerospace, results were in line with our guidance, but the low order intake
and overall market conditions were a disappointment," said Pierre Beaudoin,
President and Chief Executive Officer, Bombardier Inc. "And in September, the
CSeries had its first flight thus starting the extensive flight test program."
"Our revenues in Transportation have increased and free cash flow has also
slightly improved. The overall market remains resilient and as illustrated by
some order wins during the quarter, our penetration of new regions continues to
be strong."
"Our significant ongoing investments in the development of new products,
combined with our $65.5 billion backlog, represent the core elements for our
strong growth story to take shape," concluded Mr. Beaudoin.
Bombardier Inc. also announced the appointment of Mr. Patrick Pichette to its
Board of Directors. Mr. Pichette is Chief Financial Officer at Google Inc. He
was at Bell Canada from 2001 to 2008, during which time he held various
executive positions including Chief Financial Officer. Prior to joining Bell
Canada, Mr. Pichette was a partner at McKinsey & Company. He earned a bachelor's
degree in business administration from Université du Québec à Montréal. He also
holds a master's degree in philosophy, politics and economics from Oxford
University, where he attended as a Rhodes Scholar.
Bombardier Aerospace
Bombardier Aerospace's revenues amounted to $2.0 billion for the three-month
period ended September 30, 2013, compared to $2.3 billion for the same period
last fiscal year. EBIT totalled $86 million or 4.3% of revenues for the third
quarter ended September 30, 2013, compared to $118 million, or 5.2%, last fiscal
year.
Free cash flow usage amounted to $406 million (including net additions to
property, plant and equipment (PP&E) and intangible assets of $585 million) for
the third quarter ended September 30, 2013, compared to a usage of $68 million
(including net additions to PP&E and intangible assets of $543 million) for the
same period last fiscal year.
Bombardier Aerospace delivered a total of 45 aircraft during the third quarter
ended September 30, 2013, compared to 57 for the same period last fiscal year,
and received 26 net orders during the third quarter, compared to 83 for the same
period last fiscal year.
In Commercial Aircraft, a memorandum of understanding was signed with
Rosteckhnologii (Rostec), a state corporation controlled by the Russian
Federation, to validate the opportunity to set up a Q400 NextGen final assembly
line in Russia. In parallel, a letter of intent (LOI) was signed with Rostec for
the sale of 50 Q400 NextGen turboprop aircraft. A LOI has also been signed with
Ilyushin Finance Co. for the sale of 50 Q400 NextGen turboprop aircraft. Based
on list price, the LOIs for 100 Q400 NextGen turboprop aircraft are valued at
$3.4 billion.
During the third quarter, Bombardier signed an agreement for the sale of
Flexjet's activities to a newly-created company, Flexjet, LLC, owned by a group
led by Directional Aviation Capital. The purchase price is $185 million and the
transaction, subject to regulatory approvals and the usual closing conditions,
is expected to close before the end of the year.
In connection with this transaction, Flexjet, LLC placed conditional orders for
85 aircraft of the Learjet family and 30 aircraft of the Challenger family, with
options for 150 additional business aircraft. Based on list prices, the value of
the conditional orders is $2.4 billion, excluding the options.
Subsequent to the end of the quarter, Bombardier Aerospace announced that CDB
Leasing Co., Ltd. of China, is the previously undisclosed customer that signed a
conditional purchase agreement for 5 CS100 and 10 CS300 aircraft. This agreement
also includes options for an additional 5 CS100 and 10 CS300 aircraft for a
total of up to 30 CSeries aircraft. Based on list prices, the conditional order
is valued at approximately $1 billion and could increase to $2.1 billion should
all 15 options be exercised. This brings the total orders and commitments for
the CSeries program to 403 aircraft with 15 customers and operators.
Bombardier Aerospace's backlog totalled $32.9 billion as at September 30, 2013,
the same level as at December 31, 2012.
Bombardier Transportation
Bombardier Transportation's revenues amounted to $2.1 billion for the three-
month period ended September 30, 2013, compared to $1.9 billion for the same
period last year. EBIT totalled $124 million, or 6.0% of revenues, compared to
$122 million, or 6.3%, for the same quarter the previous year. Free cash flow
usage totalled $5 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2013, compared to
a usage of $58 million for the same period last fiscal year.
New orders reached $1.7 billion (book-to-bill ratio of 0.8), compared to $2.2
billion for the same quarter last fiscal year. The order backlog totalled $32.6
billion as at September 30, 2013, compared to $32.0 billion as at December
31, 2012.
During the third quarter, Bombardier Transportation won several orders across
all divisions and geographies, including, as a member of the ArRiyadh New
Mobility Consortium, a contract to deliver technology for the new line 3 in
Riyadh, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. The contract includes system interface
management, project management and design, as well as the delivery of 47 two-car
driverless INNOVIA Metro 300 trains equipped with the MITRAC propulsion
technology. Bombardier Transportation's share of the contract is valued at
approximately $383 million.
Bombardier Transportation also received orders from Deutsche Bahn AG, Germany,
for 18 TWINDEXX electric double-deck trains, valued at $289 million as well as
from Southern Railway, U.K., for 116 ELECTROSTAR cars, valued at $274 million,

(1) Certain comparative figures have been restated as a result of our adoption of
IFRS 11, Joint arrangements and the amended IAS 19, Employee benefits. The
joint arrangement restatements relate to the requirement to account for our
investments in joint ventures using the equity method under IFRS 11, instead
of proportionate consolidation. The employee benefit restatements mainly
relate to the requirement under amended IAS 19 to calculate interest expense
and interest income components on a net basis using the post-employment
benefit obligation discount rate. Comparative figures have also been restated
due to the change in methods of measurement of certain financial assets, as

Upon the adoption of IFRS 11, Joint arrangements, effective January 1, 2013, the
Corporation is using the equity method to account for its interests in joint
ventures and presenting its pro rata share of net income arising from joint
ventures as a net of tax one-line item in the results of operations. Prior to
the adoption of IFRS 11, the Corporation's share of revenues and expenses of
joint ventures was consolidated line-by-line in its results of operations using
the proportionate consolidation method. IFRS 11 was adopted retrospectively and
comparative figures have been restated.

release are expressly qualified by this cautionary statement.
CAUTION REGARDING NON-GAAP MEASURES
This press release is based on reported earnings in accordance with
International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS). Reference to generally
accepted accounting principles (GAAP) means IFRS, unless indicated otherwise.
This press release is also based on non-GAAP financial measures including
EBITDA, EBIT before special items, EBIT margin before special items, adjusted
net income, adjusted earnings per share and free cash flow. These non-GAAP
measures are mainly derived from the interim consolidated financial statements,
but do not have a standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS; therefore, others
using these terms may calculate them differently. Management believes that
providing certain non-GAAP performance measures, in addition to IFRS measures,
provides users of our interim consolidated financial statements with enhanced
understanding of our results and related trends and increases transparency and
clarity into the core results of our business. Refer to the Non-GAAP financial
measures and Liquidity and capital resources sections in the Corporation's MD&A
for definitions of these metrics and reconciliations to the most comparable IFRS
measures.
