Terex Corp. Research Report

On June 17, 2013, Terex Corp. (Terex) lowered its guidance for full-year FY 2013 and provided guidance for Q2 2013. The Company now expects full-year FY 2013 EPS to be in range of $1.90 and $2.10, as adjusted for certain non-recurring items. This compares to the previous full-year FY 2013 EPS guidance of $2.40 to $2.70 range. Terex also provided Q2 2013 recurring EPS guidance in the range of $0.50 and $0.60. Commenting on reasons for lowered FY 2013 guidance, Ron DeFeo, the  Chairman and CEO of Terex, said, "The level of sales growth has softened overall for Terex when compared with the increases we originally anticipated for 2013. More specifically, we are experiencing a softer marketplace for our Construction, Material Handling & Port Solutions ("MHPS"), and, to a lesser degree, our Cranes operations. We do continue to experience positive replacement demand for Aerial Work Platform products and solid performance for Materials Processing. However, strength from these businesses will not offset the revenue variances of the balance of our business."

Mueller Water Products, Inc. Research Report

On June 12, 2013, Echologics, a division of Mueller Co. (Mueller), introduced the Fixed Leak Detection Solution, designed to help reduce the risk of catastrophic main breaks. Marc Bracken, VP and General Manager for Echologics, said, "Transmission main leaks are a major concern for utilities due to the high pressures involved and the potential for soil destabilization that can quickly turn a small leak into a large break." Echologics' fixed leak detection solution combines components of LeakFinderRT, its proprietary, acoustic-based system that can non-invasively locate leaks within approximately 3 to 6 feet of accuracy-without breaking ground or inserting tools into the water system, with GPS and cellular telemetry, creating a centralized network that continuously monitors critical transmission mains and alerts utilities of leaks and transient events, which can result in catastrophic main breaks.
