November 2016 Orders Comments
Trailing three-month orders decreased 7 percent as monthly orders
reflected stabilizing conditions in energy related markets and
solid demand in HVAC markets. Underlying orders were down 5
percent with unfavorable currency translation of 2 percent from a
stronger U.S. dollar.
Automation Solutions orders continued to reflect the impact of
lower capital and operational spending by energy related and
general industrial customers, but the pace of orders did improve
in November, particularly in North America. Underlying orders
were down in all regions, with significant declines continuing in
Middle East/Africa and Latin America. North America MRO orders
improved as customers increased spending prior to year-end and in
expectation of improved energy spending in 2017. In China, demand
for analytical instrumentation and flow devices has improved.
Globally, activity in power, chemical and life sciences markets
remains favorable providing opportunities for growth. Discussions
regarding plant upgrades and expansions are accelerating as
customers look to strategically focus their spending in 2017.
Currency translation deducted 3 percentage points. We continue to
expect an approximately 10 percent decline in sales in the first
quarter.
Commercial Residential Solutions orders increased high-single
digits as favorable conditions continued in HVAC, refrigeration
and U.S. construction markets. Orders were strong in North
American air conditioning and China heat pump markets with both
up mid-teens. Improving conditions in early-cycle demand resulted
in strong growth in the sensors business. Growth in the wet/dry
vacuums, food waste disposers and professional tools businesses
reflected a continuation of favorable conditions in U.S.
construction markets. Currency translation deducted 1 percent.
Recent order trends support an expectation for mid-single digit
sales growth in the first quarter.
The below table reflects the trailing 3-month order history for
2015 and 2016 on the new platform basis and is being provided to
aid in comparisons to prior year orders and analysis of
year-to-year trends.
