- Second-quarter sales and revenues of $10 billion decreased by 31%. The decline was mainly due to lower sales volume driven primarily by lower end user demand and changes in dealer inventories. Caterpillar reported sales to users decreased by 22% in the second quarter that was less of a drop than originally anticipated. Machine sales to users including construction industries and resource industries decreased by 23% driven by a 40% decline in North America.
- Asia-Pacific was a bright spot. The 7% increase in end-user demand for machines in Asia-Pacific was led by improved demand from China. Energy and transportation sales to users decreased by 18% as transportation and industrial were soft while reciprocating engines for oil and gas continue to decline as expected. Power generation remains steady with a year ago quarter.
- In addition, earlier this year some mining customers shut down operations relating to the COVID-19 pandemic. However, activity in May and June started to improve. Globally the average age of the large mining trucks fleet is historically high and in addition, customer interest and autonomy remains strong which Caterpillar believes represents a competitive advantage for Caterpillar. Conversations with mining customers indicate that greenfield and brownfield projects are still moving forward.
- During Caterpillar's last earnings call, Caterpillar reviewed strategy which focuses on services, expanded offerings and operational excellence. Caterpillar also discussed that the impact of COVID-19 in business had been more severe and chaotic than any cyclical downturn previously had envisioned. Importantly, while taken actions to reduce costs made a conscious decision to continue to invest in enablers of services growth including enhancing digital capabilities and expanded offerings; key elements of strategy for long-term profitable growth. While Caterpillar expects margins in 2020 to be better than a historical performance at a similar level of sales Caterpillar continues to believe it will be challenging to achieve the margin targets communicated during Caterpillar's 2019 investor day.

2019-End Market Highlights
Construction Industries
Modest economic expansion and continued growth in construction activity in North America, in particular for road infrastructure, was offset by weaker demand in Asia/Pacific due to continued competitive pressures. Lower sales in 2019 were driven by changes in dealer inventories, partially offset by higher end-user demand.
Resource Industries
Mining customers increased capital expenditures as commodity prices were generally supportive of investments. Positive global economic growth drove increased sales for equipment supporting nonresidential construction activities, as well as quarry and aggregates activities.
Energy & Transportation
Declines in North American oil and gas resulted in weaker new equipment demand for well servicing and slowed timing of turbine project delivery of gas compression projects. Both industrial and power generation applications experienced moderate growth from higher end-user demand, while transportation sales were about flat.
Caterpillar Strategy
Caterpillar continues to execute their strategy for profitable growth, which has THREE PILLARS:
- Operational excellence
- Expanded offerings
- Services
Operational excellence includes the core competencies of safety, quality, Lean and a competitive and flexible cost structure.
Expanded offerings includes the growing equipment portfolio that meets a broad range of customer needs.
Services refers to the many ways that Caterpillar helps customers succeed after purchasing a product, including growing digital offerings. Successfully executing this strategy allows Caterpillar to improve operating profit and free cash flow – while providing better solutions to customers and creating more opportunities for people, partners and shareholders.
