DEERFIELD, Ill. - Caterpillar Inc. (NYSE: CAT) today announced third-quarter 2019 sales and revenues of $12.8 billion, a 6% decrease compared with
$13.5 billion in the third quarter of 2018. Third-quarter 2019 profit per share was $2.66, compared with $2.88 profit per share in the third quarter of
2018.
The primary driver of the decline in sales and revenues was a $1.2 billion movement in dealers' inventories. Dealers decreased their inventories about
$400 million during the third quarter of 2019, after increasing their inventories about $800 million during the third quarter of 2018.
During the third quarter of 2019, the company made a $1.5 billion discretionary pension contribution financed from proceeds of a debt issuance. As a
result, Machinery, Energy & Transportation (ME&T) operating cash flow was negative $188 million. The company also repurchased $1.2 billion of
Caterpillar common stock and paid dividends of $0.6 billion in the third quarter of 2019. The enterprise cash balance at the end of the third quarter
of 2019 was $7.9 billion.
"Our volumes declined as dealers reduced their inventories, and end-user demand, while positive, was lower than our expectations," said Caterpillar
Chairman and CEO Jim Umpleby. "We remain focused on executing our strategy and continuing to achieve our Investor Day targets for margin improvement
and free cash flow."
2019 Outlook
The company is lowering its full-year profit per share outlook range to $10.90 to $11.40, compared to the previous outlook which was at the low end of
the $12.06 to $13.06 range. Both ranges include the first-quarter $0.31 per share discrete tax benefit. The revised guidance now assumes modestly lower
sales in 2019. The company remains focused on maintaining a competitive and flexible cost structure, including managing production levels.
"In the fourth quarter, we now expect end-user demand to be flat and dealers to make further inventory reductions due to global economic uncertainty,"
said Umpleby. "Caterpillar's improved lead times, along with these dealer inventory reductions, will enable us to respond quickly to positive or
negative developments in the global economy in 2020. We are expanding our offerings and investing in services, including digital capabilities, to drive
long-term profitable growth, while continuing to achieve our Investor Day targets for improved financial performance."
The outlook does not include a mark-to-market gain or loss for remeasurement of pension and other postemployment benefit plans, which will be excluded
from adjusted profit per share in the fourth quarter of 2019 along with any other material discrete items.
CONSOLIDATED RESULTS
Consolidated Sales and Revenues
The chart above graphically illustrates reasons for the change in consolidated sales and revenues between the third quarter of 2018 (at left) and the
third quarter of 2019 (at right). Caterpillar management utilizes these charts internally to visually communicate with the company's Board of Directors
and employees.
Total sales and revenues of $12.758 billion in the third quarter of 2019 decreased $752 million, or 6%, compared with $13.510 billion in the third
quarter of 2018. The decline was due to lower sales volume driven by the unfavorable impact from changes in dealer inventories, partially offset by
higher end-user demand across the three primary segments. Dealers decreased machine and engine inventories about $400 million during the third quarter
of 2019, compared with an increase of about $800 million during the third quarter of 2018. Sales decreased across the three primary segments and in all
regions except for Latin America, which was about flat.

Consolidated Operating Profit
The chart above graphically illustrates reasons for the change in consolidated operating profit between the third quarter of 2018 (at left) and the
third quarter of 2019 (at right). Caterpillar management utilizes these charts internally to visually communicate with the company's Board of Directors
and employees. The bar titled Other includes consolidating adjustments and Machinery, Energy & Transportation's other operating (income) expenses.
Operating profit for the third quarter of 2019 was $2.020 billion, a decrease of $115 million, or 5%, compared with $2.135 billion in the third quarter
of 2018. The decrease was primarily due to lower sales volume. This decrease was partially offset by favorable price realization and lower selling,
general and administrative (SG&A) and research and development (R&D) expenses.
Favorable price realization continued to offset manufacturing costs and lower SG&A/R&D expenses were mostly due to a reduction in short-term incentive
compensation expense.
Operating profit margin was 15.8% for both the third quarters of 2019 and 2018.

The provision for income taxes for the third quarter of 2019 reflected an estimated annual tax rate of 26%, compared with 24% for the third quarter of
2018. The increase was largely driven by the application of U.S. tax reform provisions to the earnings of certain non-U.S. subsidiaries, which do not
have a calendar fiscal year-end. These provisions did not apply to these subsidiaries in 2018.

Profit Margin
Construction Industries' total sales were $5.289 billion in the third quarter of 2019, a decrease of $394 million, or 7%, compared with $5.683 billion
in the third quarter of 2018. The decrease was due to lower sales volume driven by the unfavorable impact from changes in dealer inventories, partially
offset by higher end-user demand for construction equipment. Dealers increased inventories during the third quarter of 2018, compared with a decrease
in the third quarter of 2019.
1) In North America, sales increased primarily due to favorable price realization and higher demand for equipment, mostly to support road and
non-residential building construction activities.
2) Sales were higher in Latin America, but construction activities remained at low levels.
3) In EAME, the sales decrease was primarily due to currency impacts related to the euro. Unfavorable price realization and lower sales volume also
contributed to the decrease.
4) Sales in Asia/Pacific were lower across most of the region primarily due to lower demand in China, including unfavorable changes in dealer
inventories, amid continued competitive pressures.
Construction Industries' profit was $940 million in the third quarter of 2019, a decrease of $118 million, or 11%, compared with $1.058 billion in the
third quarter of 2018. The decrease was primarily due to lower sales volume, partially offset by lower SG&A/R&D expenses and favorable price
realization. Lower SG&A/R&D expenses were primarily due to lower short-term incentive compensation expense.

Resource Industries' total sales were $2.311 billion in the third quarter of 2019, a decrease of $327 million, or 12%, compared with $2.638 billion in
the third quarter of 2018. The decrease was due to lower sales volume driven by the unfavorable impact from changes in dealer inventories, partially
offset by higher end-user demand for equipment and favorable price realization. Dealers decreased inventories during the third quarter of 2019,
compared with an increase in the third quarter of 2018. While commodity prices are generally supportive of reinvestment, the company believes mining
customers are cautious due to economic uncertainty. Mining sales were also impacted by lower thermal coal prices. In addition, sales decreased for
equipment supporting non-residential construction and quarry and aggregates driven by a reduction in dealer inventories.
Resource Industries' profit was $311 million in the third quarter of 2019, a decrease of $103 million, or 25%, compared with $414 million in the third
quarter of 2018. The decrease was primarily due to lower sales volume, partially offset by favorable price realization.

Energy & Transportation's total sales were $5.452 billion in the third quarter of 2019, a decrease of $103 million, or 2%, compared with $5.555 billion
in the third quarter of 2018. Sales decreased primarily due to lower inter-segment engine sales.
1) Oil and Gas - Sales decreased for reciprocating engines in North America primarily due to lower demand in well servicing applications. This was
partially offset by higher sales of turbines and turbine-related services.
2) Power Generation - Sales increased mostly due to higher deliveries in North America for large diesel reciprocating engines and turbines, partially
offset by lower sales of reciprocating engines in EAME.
3) Industrial - Sales improved primarily in EAME and Asia/Pacific driven by higher end-user demand.
4) Transportation - Sales were lower primarily due to timing of locomotive deliveries.
Energy & Transportation's profit was $1.021 billion in the third quarter of 2019, an increase of $48 million, or 5%, compared with $973 million in the
third quarter of 2018. Lower sales volume, including an unfavorable mix of products, was more than offset by favorable other operating income/expense
and SG&A/R&D expenses mostly due to a reduction in short-term incentive compensation expense.

Profit
Financial Products' segment revenues were $865 million in the third quarter of 2019, an increase of $20 million, or 2%, from the third quarter of 2018.
The increase was primarily due to higher average financing rates in North America and Asia/Pacific, partially offset by an unfavorable impact due to
the absence of fees associated with an intercompany credit facility in North America.
Financial Products' segment profit was $218 million in the third quarter of 2019, up 8% compared with $201 million in the third quarter of 2018. The
favorable change was primarily due to an increase in net yield on average earning assets and a decrease in the provision for credit losses at Cat
Financial, partially offset by unfavorable impacts from higher SG&A expenses, the mark-to-market on equity securities in Insurance Services and the
absence of the intercompany credit facility.
At the end of the third quarter of 2019, past dues at Cat Financial were 3.19%, compared with 3.47% at the end of the third quarter of 2018.
Write-offs, net of recoveries, were $103 million for the third quarter of 2019, compared with $40 million for the third quarter of 2018. The increase
in write-offs, net of recoveries, was primarily driven by Caterpillar Power Finance, concentrated in the marine portfolio, and EAME, mostly in the
Middle East. As of September 30, 2019, Cat Financial's allowance for credit losses totaled $434 million, or 1.57% of finance receivables, compared with
$523 million, or 1.81% of finance receivables at June 30, 2019. The allowance for credit losses at year-end 2018 was $511 million, or 1.80% of finance
receivables.
Corporate Items and Eliminations
Expense for corporate items and eliminations was $342 million in the third quarter of 2019, a decrease of $59 million from the third quarter of 2018,
primarily due to lower restructuring costs.
Dealer Inventories and Order Backlog
Dealers decreased machine and engine inventories about $400 million during the third quarter of 2019, compared with an increase of about $800 million
during the third quarter of 2018, led by Construction Industries and Resource Industries.
At the end of the third quarter of 2019, the order backlog was $14.6 billion, about $400 million lower than the second quarter of 2019.

APPENDIX
NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
The following definitions are provided for the non-GAAP financial measures. These non-GAAP financial measures have no standardized meaning prescribed
by U.S. GAAP and therefore are unlikely to be comparable to the calculation of similar measures for other companies. Management does not intend these
items to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the related GAAP measures.
Adjusted Profit Per Share
The company believes it is important to separately quantify the profit impact of three significant items in order for the company's results to be
meaningful to readers. These items consist of (i) a discrete tax benefit related to U.S. tax reform in the first quarter of 2019, (ii) restructuring
costs in 2018, which were incurred to generate longer-term benefits and (iii) a net tax benefit to adjust deferred tax balances in the third quarter of
2018. The company does not consider these items indicative of earnings from ongoing business activities and believes the non-GAAP measure provides
investors with useful perspective on underlying business results and trends and aids with assessing the company's period-over-period results. The
company intends to discuss adjusted profit per share for the fourth quarter and full-year 2019, excluding a mark-to-market gain or loss for
remeasurement of pension and other postemployment benefit plans along with any other discrete items.
Reconciliations of adjusted profit per share to the most directly comparable GAAP measure, diluted profit per share, are as follows:
