CEO Commentary

“The third quarter results for our USA and Europe Fibre Cement segment continue to reflect increased volumes and higher average net sales price which led to a 17% increase in net sales compared to the prior corresponding quarter,” said James Hardie CEO, Louis Gries.

He continued, “We continue to see improving conditions in the US housing market which led to the volume increases for the quarter and nine months. In addition to the improving market conditions, our strong position in the market, increased market penetration and higher average net sales prices resulted in USA and Europe EBIT for the quarter, excluding asset impairments, increasing 75% compared to last year. We continue to see our USA and Europe Fibre Cement segment EBIT margin within our target range at 20.2% and 21.4% for the quarter and nine months, respectively.”

In this Media Release, James Hardie may present financial measures, sales volume terms, financial ratios, and Non-US GAAP financial measures included in the Definitions section of this document starting on page 10. The company presents financial measures that it believes are customarily used by its Australian investors. Specifically, these financial measures, which are equivalent to or derived from certain US GAAP measures as explained in the definitions, include “EBIT”, “EBIT margin”, “Operating profit before income taxes” and “Net operating profit”. The company may also present other terms for measuring its sales volume (“million square feet” or “mmsf” and “thousand square feet” or “msf”); financial ratios (“Gearing ratio”, “Net interest expense cover”, “Net interest paid cover”, “Net debt payback”, “Net debt (cash)”); and Non-US GAAP financial measures (“EBIT excluding asbestos, asset impairments, ASIC expenses and New Zealand product liability”, “EBIT margin excluding asbestos, asset impairments, ASIC expenses and New Zealand product liability”, “Net operating profit excluding asbestos, asset impairments, ASIC expenses, New Zealand product liability and tax adjustments”, “Diluted earnings per share excluding asbestos, asset impairments, ASIC expenses, New Zealand product liability and tax adjustments”, “Operating profit before income taxes excluding asbestos, asset impairments and New Zealand product liability”, “Effective tax rate on earnings excluding asbestos, asset impairments, New Zealand product liability and tax adjustments”, “Adjusted EBITDA”, “General corporate costs excluding ASIC expenses, intercompany foreign exchange gain and recovery of RCI legal costs” and “Selling, general and administrative expenses excluding New Zealand product liability”). Unless otherwise stated, results and comparisons are of the 3rd quarter and the nine months of the current fiscal year versus the 3rd quarter and the nine months of the prior fiscal year.

“Our Asia Pacific segment saw an 11% increase in EBIT excluding New Zealand product liability compared to the prior corresponding quarter despite the depreciation of the local currencies versus the US dollar,” said Mr. Gries.

“We recently recognised the company’s 125 year anniversary at all of our locations. Looking forward, the company continues to build for the future as evidenced by the recommencement of production at our Fontana, California plant in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2014 and our commitment to investing in production capacity expansions at the Plant City, Florida and Cleburne, Texas facilities. Additionally, illustrating our commitment to making returns to shareholders, the company today announced a special dividend of US28.0 cents per share (approximately US$125 million) in recognition of the company’s 125 year anniversary,” concluded Mr. Gries.

USA and Europe Fibre Cement Net Sales

During both the quarter and nine months, net sales increased due to both higher sales volume and a higher average net sales price. The increase in sales volume was primarily due to increased activity in the new construction market segment, and a modest growth in the repair and remodel market segment, as a result of improved housing market conditions and further market penetration, relative to the prior corresponding periods. The increase in the average net sales price reflects the execution of the company’s pricing strategies.

According to the US Census Bureau, single family housing starts, which are one of the key drivers of the company’s performance, were 142,800 in the December 2013 quarter, 11% above the December 2012 quarter. Industry data indicates gains in both single-family and multi-family production. This increase in activity in the US housing market follows consistent gains in builder confidence. According to the US Census Bureau, single family housing starts were 481,800 for the nine months ending 31 December 2013, 12% above the prior corresponding period.

Asia Pacific Fibre Cement Net Sales

In Australian dollars, Asia Pacific net sales increased in both the quarter and in the nine months compared to the prior corresponding periods due to an increase in sales volume, primarily driven by market growth and a higher average net sales price. Net sales in Australia increased primarily due to a higher average net sales price, however this increase was constrained by a reduction in repair and remodel market activity during both the quarter and the nine months, relative to the prior corresponding periods. In New Zealand, the increase in net sales reflects the continued increase in activity in the New Zealand housing market and a higher average net sales price compared to the prior corresponding periods.

According to Australian Bureau of Statistics data, approvals for detached houses were 26,262 for the quarter, an increase of 15%, when compared to the prior corresponding quarter. For the nine months ended 31 December 2013, approvals for detached houses were 78,326, an increase of 14%, compared to the prior corresponding period. Furthermore, in addition to the detached housing market, a key driver of sales volume for the Australian business is the repair and remodel market, which for the nine month period ended 30 September 2013 was down 4.8% from the prior corresponding period.

According to Statistics New Zealand data, the total number of dwelling consents for the quarter ended 31 December 2013 were 6,193, 32% above the prior corresponding quarter. For the nine months ended 31 December 2013, the total number of dwelling consents were

16,971, 30% above the prior corresponding period. Further, consents for dwellings excluding apartments, which are the primary driver of the New Zealand business’ net sales, were 5,095 for the quarter, an increase of 20%, when compared to the prior corresponding quarter. For the nine months ended 31 December 2013, consents for dwellings excluding apartments, were 14,779, an increase of 26%, compared to the prior corresponding period.

Operating Performance

EBIT for the quarter increased from US$32.5 million in the prior corresponding quarter to US$94.8 million.

EBIT for the nine months increased from US$137.8 million in the prior corresponding period to US$319.5 million. EBIT excluding asbestos, asset impairments, ASIC expenses and New Zealand product liability increased 36% to US$195.4 million compared with US$144.0 million in the prior corresponding period.

USA and Europe Fibre Cement EBIT

USA and Europe Fibre Cement EBIT excluding asset impairments for the quarter increased 75% from US$30.4 million in the prior corresponding quarter to US$53.1 million. EBIT margin excluding asset impairments for the quarter was 6.7 percentage points higher at 20.2%.

For the nine months, USA and Europe Fibre Cement EBIT excluding asset impairments increased 44% from US$124.7 million in the prior corresponding period to US$179.8 million. For the nine months, EBIT margin excluding asset impairments was 3.9 percentage points higher at 21.4%

For both the quarter and the nine months ended 31 December 2013, EBIT was favourably impacted primarily by higher volume, a higher average net sales price and lower production costs, partially offset by an increase in SG&A.

Asia Pacific Fibre Cement EBIT

Asia Pacific Fibre Cement EBIT excluding New Zealand product liability for the quarter increased 11% from US$19.2 million in the prior corresponding quarter to US$21.3 million. In Australian dollars, Asia Pacific Fibre Cement EBIT excluding New Zealand product liability for the quarter increased 21%. EBIT margin excluding New Zealand product liability was 3.5 percentage points higher for the quarter at 23.5%.

Asia Pacific Fibre Cement EBIT including New Zealand product liability for the quarter increased from US$11.7 million in the prior corresponding quarter to US$25.5 million. EBIT margin including New Zealand product liability was 15.9 percentage points higher at 28.1%.

For the nine months ended 31 December, Asia Pacific Fibre Cement EBIT excluding New Zealand product liability increased 11% from US$58.2 million to US$64.5 million. In Australian dollars, Asia Pacific Fibre Cement EBIT excluding New Zealand product liability increased 21% compared to the prior corresponding period.

Asia Pacific Fibre Cement EBIT including New Zealand product liability increased from US$45.0 million in the prior corresponding nine months to US$63.8 million. EBIT margin was 6.8 percentage points higher at 22.9%.

Net Operating Profit

Net operating profit for the quarter was US$92.2 million, compared to US$31.5 million for the prior corresponding quarter. Net operating profit excluding asbestos, asset impairments, ASIC expenses, New Zealand product liability and tax adjustments increased 64% from US$26.7 million in the prior corresponding quarter to US$43.7 million in the current quarter, as shown in the table below.

For the nine months, net operating profit was US$286.3 million, compared to US$115.0 million for the prior corresponding period. Net operating profit excluding asbestos, assets impairments, ASIC expenses, New Zealand product liability and tax adjustments increased 39% to US$152.0 million from US$109.4 million in the prior corresponding period, as shown in the table below.

Capacity Expansion

The company is proceeding with its previously announced plans to increase the production capacity of the USA and Europe Fibre Cement segment. These plans now include:

The company continues to refurbish its Fontana, California plant at a cost of US$37.9 million to date. The company intends recommencement of production in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2014 with a nominal capacity of 250 mmsf¹.

The company expects both the Plant City and Cleburne projects to be commissioned by the first half of fiscal 2015.

As previously announced during the first quarter of fiscal year 2014, the company completed the purchase of the previously-leased land and buildings at the Carole Park, Brisbane plant prior to capital expenditure and commercial investments to increase the plant’s production capacity at a total estimated cost of approximately A$89.0 million.

Cash Flow

Net operating cash flow increased for the nine months from US$83.3 million in the period to US$254.7 million primarily due to the following:

For the nine months ended 31 December 2013, net capital expenditure for the purchase of property, plant and equipment increased to US$67.9 million from US$41.3 million in the prior corresponding period. The increase in net capital expenditure is primarily a result of the purchase of the previously leased land and buildings located at the company’s Carole Park, Brisbane plant and refurbishment of idled manufacturing assets at the Fontana, California plant. In addition, in December 2013, the Company acquired the assets of a US business engaged in the research, development and manufacturing of fibreglass windows.

Dividends paid during the nine months ended 31 December decreased to US$163.6 million, reflecting a payment of US37.0 cents per security, compared to US$166.4 million in the prior corresponding period, reflecting a payment of US38.0 cents per security.

Outlook

The US operating environment continues to reflect an increasing number of housing starts and improving house values. According to the US Census Bureau, the single family building permits were 482,600 for the nine months ended 31 December 2013, an increase of 18% from the prior corresponding period, and multi-family building permits were 279,000, an increase of 12%, relative to the prior corresponding period.

Given the further improvement in underlying market demand and the financial performance of the US and Europe Fibre Cement segment year-to-date, EBIT-to-revenue margin in the segment is expected to be above 20% for fiscal year 2014, absent the occurrence of major external factors that could adversely impact the US operating environment in the fourth quarter of the fiscal year.

In Australia, approvals for detached houses and the repair and remodel market are key indicators of underlying demand for our business. For the nine months ended 31 December 2013, approvals for detached houses were 78,326, an increase of 14% compared to the prior corresponding period, whilst the overall repair and remodel market was down 4.8% for

the nine month period ended 30 September 2013 (the most recently available statistical data from the Australian Bureau of Statistics) when compared to the prior corresponding period. Accordingly, net sales from the Australian business is expected to track in line with any growth in the detached housing market and impacted by any positive or negative movement of the repair and remodel market.

The New Zealand business continues to deliver improved results supported by a stronger local housing market, particularly in the Auckland and Christchurch areas, when compared with recent years.

Full Year Earnings Guidance

Management notes the range of analysts’ forecasts for net operating profit excluding asbestos for the year ending 31 March 2014 is between US$189 million and US$202 million. Management expects full year earnings excluding asbestos, asset impairments, ASIC expenses, New Zealand product liability and tax adjustments to be between US$190 million and US$200 million assuming, among other things, housing industry conditions in the United States continue to improve and that an average exchange rate of approximately US$0.89/A$1.00 applies for the balance of the year ending 31 March 2014.

The comparable net operating profit excluding asbestos, asset impairments, ASIC expenses, New Zealand product liability and tax adjustments for fiscal year 2013 was US$140.8 million.

Management cautions that although US housing activity has been improving for some time, market conditions remain somewhat uncertain and some input costs remain volatile.

The Company is unable to forecast the comparable US GAAP financial measure due to uncertainty regarding the impact of actuarial estimates on asbestos-related assets and liabilities in future periods.
