Second-quarter 2022 Highlights

Net sales of $497.2 million, up 7.2% year-over-year
Adjusted EBITDA⁽¹⁾ margin of 7.3%
Backlog of $947.8 million, up 28.8% year-over-year

The Manitowoc Company, Inc. (NYSE: MTW), (the “Company” or “Manitowoc”) a leading global manufacturer of cranes and lifting solutions, today reported second-quarter net income of $15.1 million, or $0.42 per diluted share. Second-quarter adjusted net income⁽¹⁾ was $7.4 million, or $0.21 per diluted share.

Net sales in the second-quarter increased 7.2% year-over-year to $497.2 million and were unfavorably impacted by $27.9 million from changes in foreign currency exchange rates. Adjusted EBITDA⁽¹⁾ was $36.4 million, a decrease of $4.3 million from the prior year, of which $2.7 million is related to changes in foreign currency exchange rates.

Second-quarter orders were $434.0 million, a 19.2% decrease from the prior year. Orders were unfavorably impacted by $22.6 million from changes in foreign currency exchange rates. Backlog ended the second quarter at $947.8 million, a decrease of 8.3% sequentially. Backlog was unfavorably impacted by $24.4 million from changes in foreign currency exchange rates.

“Our second quarter results reflect our team's solid operational performance and diligent cost management amid challenging macroeconomic conditions. While our backlog remains elevated due to continued supply chain constraints, order intake began to trend down. It is clear that ongoing global economic uncertainty is causing our customers to remain cautious when committing to future orders,” said Aaron H. Ravenscroft, President and Chief Executive Officer of The Manitowoc Company, Inc.

“As we enter the second half of the year, inflation, rising interest rates, and geopolitical tensions will continue to hinder customer confidence. Yet, we remain on track to deliver the low-end of our adjusted EBITDA guidance,” continued Ravenscroft. “Despite the challenging outlook, we are committed to our four breakthrough initiatives which enable our CRANES+50 strategy and position us to capitalize on the eventual crane renaissance. We look forward to showcasing our progress at the upcoming bauma trade show this October,” concluded Ravenscroft.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Adjusted net income, Adjusted DEPS, EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted operating income, and free cash flows are financial measures that are not in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Manitowoc believes these non-GAAP financial measures provide important supplemental information to both management and investors regarding financial and business trends used in assessing its results of operations. Manitowoc believes excluding specified items provides a more meaningful comparison to the corresponding reporting periods and internal budgets and forecasts, assists investors in performing analysis that is consistent with financial models developed by investors and research analysts, provides management with a more relevant measure of operating performance, and is more useful in assessing management performance.

Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted DEPS

The Company defines adjusted net income as net income plus the addback or subtraction of restructuring and certain other charges. Adjusted DEPS is defined as adjusted net income divided by diluted weighted average shares outstanding. The reconciliation of net income and diluted net income per share to adjusted net income and Adjusted DEPS for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 are summarized as follows. All dollar amounts are in millions, except per share amounts.
