Allegion plc, the foremost global security products, and solutions provider, recently made donations to hunger-relief organizations around the world amounting to more than $500,000. These one-time gifts were designated on behalf of all Allegion employees to help support the growing number of people facing food insecurity in the wake of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. Values and financial support “As we close out what’s been a very challenging year for many, it’s important to reflect on our blessings, but also the needs of others,” said Allegion President, Chairman and CEO David Petratis. “If there’s one Allegion value that I know our global team members hold very close to their hearts, it’s serving others, not yourself. Giving financially where we see a great need at our local foodbanks and other hunger-relief organizations is more important than ever given the impact COVID-19 has had on our communities.” Organization network Nearly half of the funds will support Feeding America – the largest hunger-relief organization in the United States – and its community affiliates. The organization has a network of 200 food banks and 60,000 food pantries and meal programs, providing meals to more than 40 million people each year. The remaining financial gifts are supporting additional hunger-relief organizations in communities throughout countries where Allegion operates, like Australia, Canada, Germany, India, Italy, Mexico, and New Zealand, among others. Donations and additional support Allegion and its team members regularly give back to the communities where they work and live. In addition to the December hunger-relief donations, during the calendar year 2020, Allegion provided more than $450,000 in support to community organizations and non-profits around the world, including Habitat for Humanity, the American Heart Association and Ronald McDonald House Charities. The company also contributed nearly $1 million in in-kind security product donations – which included hardware for homes, as well as hundreds of bicycle lights and locks for essential healthcare workers in need of safe commutes to work. Throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, Allegion additionally supported healthcare providers with a total donation of 45,000 masks. Frontline workers “At Allegion, we’re grateful for essential and frontline workers – those servant leaders who are fighting this pandemic and its negative impacts, like hunger, every day.” “And we’re thankful we can give back at a time when it’s needed most,” Petratis added.

Fourth-quarter net revenues increased 5.5 percent compared to the prior year period Allegion plc, a leading global provider of security products and solutions, recently reported fourth-quarter 2014 net revenues of $573.5 million and net earnings of $35.6 million, or $0.37 per share from continuing operations. These results include charges related to Venezuela currency devaluation, restructuring and one-time separation costs. Excluding these items, adjusted net earnings were $73.2 million, or $0.76 per share, up 26.7 percent compared with 2013 adjusted EPS. Fourth-quarter net revenues increased 5.5 percent compared to the prior year period (up 7.6 percent on an organic basis). The Americas segment increased total revenue by 8.4 percent, driven by low single-digit non-residential growth, mid-single-digit residential growth, Venezuela pricing actions and acquisition revenue offsetting Canadian dollar currency headwinds. The Asia Pacific segment grew revenue 17.0 percent, due to strength in the system integration and mechanical hardware businesses. The EMEIA segment revenues were down 10.3 percent, predominately driven by unfavorable currency exchange. Fourth-quarter operating margin was 11.0 percent, compared with 16.9 percent in 2013. Fourth-quarter adjusted operating margin was 18.6 percent, compared with 18.0 percent in 2013 - an increase of 60 basis points. Adjusted operating margin was up year-over-year as favorable price, volume leverage and productivity more than offset increased investments and inflation. Full-Year Results Full-year 2014 net revenues were $2,118.3 million, an increase of 2.4 percent compared to the prior year (5.0 percent on an adjusted basis). Full-year 2014 operating margin was 15.4 percent, compared with 11.6 percent in 2013. Full-year 2014 adjusted operating margin was 18.7 percent, compared with 18.3 percent in 2013 - an increase of 40 basis points. The improvement in operating margin reflects operating leverage on revenue growth that offsets incremental investments predominately in new product development. Net earnings from continuing operations for the full-year 2014 were $186.3 million, or $1.92 per share, compared to $35.9 million, or $0.37 per share, for the prior year. Adjusted net earnings from continuing operations were $241.8 million, or $2.49 per share for the year ended December 31, 2014, compared to adjusted net earnings from continuing operations of $209.0 million, or $2.18 per share for the prior year reflecting a 14.2 percent increase. Adjusted net earnings and adjusted EPS were better than the prior year, reflecting operational improvement net of investments and a lower effective tax rate offsetting share dilution and higher interest expense. "In our first year of operation as a stand-alone public company, we made significant progress on new product introductions, improved EMEIA margin performance, realised a reduction in the effective tax rate, and continued to focus on providing a safe environment for our employees. I am proud of the Allegion team and the execution and results achieved in a challenging environment," said David D. Petratis, chairman, president and chief executive officer. "We are well-positioned to actively participate in the recovering commercial construction markets with our focus on products and solutions to better serve the customer."
