At Distribution, we continued to see strong organic sales growth, with sales per sales day* in the quarter up 6.5% over the prior year. This was the highest fourth quarter daily sales rate since 2014 and helped drive our full year sales per sales day* growth of 5.0%. Operating margin was 4.1% for the quarter and we ended 2018 with full year operating margins of 4.5%, or 4.6% adjusted*. A number of items impacted our full year operating profit performance when compared to 2017, including higher group health costs, costs associated with our one-time employee tax incentive and higher freight costs, which in total had an impact of approximately 30 bps.
At Aerospace, sales increased 4.7% when compared to the fourth quarter
of 2017. Sales for specialty bearings products were strong in the
quarter, with performance benefiting from the work performed to overcome
the supplier issues that impacted results in the third quarter. Prior to
year-end we received government export approval for our
We enter 2019 with positive momentum at both segments. Results at Distribution will benefit from the full year impact of recent corporate account wins and savings from the cost reduction actions taken in 2018. Aerospace enters 2019 with significant backlog and increased order rates across several of our products and programs and, when coupled with the actions we have taken to improve operating profit performance, is well positioned to benefit from its diverse mix of commercial and defense programs. And our cash flow performance for 2019 is expected to continue the recent trend of strong cash flow generation and we remain active in our corporate development activities.”
Chief Financial Officer,
In addition, we returned approximately
Moving to our outlook for 2019, we expect overall improved results for the year due to an increase in operating margin at both segments, and strong top line growth at Distribution. The approximately 11% increase in the mid-point of expected segment operating income for 2019 is expected to be largely offset by a below the line reduction in non-cash pension and post-retirement benefit income.
At Distribution, we expect sales in the range of
At Aerospace, we expect sales in the range of
We expect another strong year of cash flow generation in 2019, with cash
flows from operations expected to be in the range of
Moving to the cadence of earnings for the year, we expect less than 10% of earnings in the first quarter and approximately 40% in the fourth quarter. Similar to 2018, earnings for 2019 are expected to be largely driven by the timing of sales and profit for our specialty bearings products and JPF safe and arm devices."

Non-GAAP Measures Disclosure
Management believes that the Non-GAAP (i.e. Financial measures that are noted computed in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles) financial measures identified by an asterisk (*) used in this release or in other disclosures provide important perspectives into the Company's ongoing business performance. The Company does not intend for the information to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the related GAAP measures. Other companies may define the measures differently. We define the Non-GAAP measures used in this release and other disclosures as follows:
Organic Sales - Organic Sales is defined as "Net Sales" less
sales derived from acquisitions completed during the preceding twelve
months. We believe that this measure provides management and investors
with a more complete understanding of underlying operating results and
trends of established, ongoing operations by excluding the effect of
acquisitions, which can obscure underlying trends. We also believe that
presenting Organic Sales separately for our segments provides management
and investors with useful information about the trends impacting our
segments and enables a more direct comparison to other businesses and
companies in similar industries. Management recognizes that the term
"Organic Sales" may be interpreted differently by other companies and
under different circumstances. No other adjustments were made during the
three-month and twelve-month fiscal periods ended

Organic Sales per Sales Day - Organic Sales per Sales Day is defined as GAAP "Net sales of the Distribution segment" less sales derived from acquisitions completed during the preceding twelve months divided by the number of Sales Days in a given period. Sales days ("Sales Days") are the days that the Distribution segment's branch locations were open for business and exclude weekends and holidays. Management believes Organic Sales per Sales Day provides an important perspective on how net sales may be impacted by the number of days the segment is open for business and provides a basis for comparing periods in which the number of Sales Days differs.
The following table illustrates the calculation of Organic Sales per
Sales Day using “Net sales: Distribution” from the “Segment and
Geographic Information” footnote in the “Notes to Consolidated Financial
Statements” included in the Company's Form 10-K filed with the

Adjusted EBITDA - Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net earnings before interest, taxes, other expense (income), net, depreciation and amortization and certain items that are not indicative of the operating performance of the Company's segments or corporate function for the period presented. Adjusted EBITDA differs from net earnings, as calculated in accordance with GAAP, in that it excludes interest expense, net, income tax expense, depreciation and amortization, other expense (income), net and certain items that are not indicative of the operating performance of the Company's segments or corporate function for the period presented. We have made numerous investments in our business, such as acquisitions and capital expenditures, including facility improvements, new machinery and equipment, improvements to our information technology infrastructure and new ERP systems, which we have adjusted for in Adjusted EBITDA. Adjusted EBITDA also does not give effect to cash used for debt service requirements and thus does not reflect funds available for distributions, reinvestments or other discretionary uses.
Management believes Adjusted EBITDA provides an additional perspective
on the operating results of the organization and its earnings capacity
and helps improve the comparability of our results between periods
because it provides a view of our operations that excludes items that
management believes are not reflective of operating performance, such as
items traditionally removed from net earnings in the calculation of
EBITDA as well as Other expense (income), net and certain items that are
not indicative of the operating performance of the Company's segments or
corporate function for the period presented. Adjusted EBITDA is not
presented as an alternative measure of operating performance, as
determined in accordance with GAAP. No other adjustments were made
during the three-month and twelve-month fiscal periods ended

Free Cash Flow - Free Cash Flow is defined as GAAP “Net cash provided by (used in) operating activities” in a period less “Expenditures for property, plant & equipment” in the same period. Management believes Free Cash Flow provides an important perspective on our ability to generate cash from our business operations and, as such, that it is an important financial measure for use in evaluating the Company's financial performance. Free Cash Flow should not be viewed as representing the residual cash flow available for discretionary expenditures such as dividends to shareholders or acquisitions, as it may exclude certain mandatory expenditures such as repayment of maturing debt and other contractual obligations. Management uses Free Cash Flow internally to assess overall liquidity. The following table illustrates the calculation of Free Cash Flow using “Net cash provided by (used in) operating activities” and “Expenditures for property, plant & equipment,” GAAP measures from the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows included in this release.

Debt to Capitalization Ratio - Debt to Capitalization Ratio is calculated by dividing debt by capitalization. Debt is defined as GAAP “Current portion of long-term debt” plus “Long-term debt, excluding current portion.” Capitalization is defined as Debt plus GAAP “Total shareholders' equity.” Management believes that Debt to Capitalization Ratio is a measurement of financial leverage and provides an insight into the financial structure of the Company and its financial strength. The following table illustrates the calculation of Debt to Capitalization Ratio using GAAP measures from the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets included in this release.

Adjusted Net Earnings and Adjusted Diluted Earnings Per Share - Adjusted Net Earnings and Adjusted Diluted Earnings per Share are defined as GAAP "Net earnings" and "Diluted earnings per share," less items that are not indicative of the operating performance of the business for the periods presented. These items are included in the reconciliation below. Management uses Adjusted Net Earnings and Adjusted Diluted Earnings per Share to evaluate performance period over period, to analyze the underlying trends in our business and to assess its performance relative to its competitors. We believe that this information is useful for investors and financial institutions seeking to analyze and compare companies on the basis of operating performance.

Adjusted Net Sales and Adjusted Operating Income - Adjusted Net
Sales is defined as net sales, less items not indicative of normal
sales, such as revenue recorded related to the settlement of claims.
Adjusted Operating Income is defined as operating income, less items
that are not indicative of the operating performance of the Company's
segments or corporate function for the period presented. These items are
included in the reconciliation below. Management uses Adjusted Net Sales
and Adjusted Operating Income to evaluate performance period over
period, to analyze underlying trends in our segments and corporate
function and to assess their performance relative to their competitors.
We believe that this information is useful for investors and financial
institutions seeking to analyze and compare companies on the basis of
operating performance. The following table illustrates the calculation
of Adjusted Operating Income using information found in Note 20, Segment
and Geographic Information, to the Consolidated Financial Statements
included in the Company's Form 10-K filed with the
