Graham Corporation’s Gross Margin Expands 660 Basis Points on Sales of $43.8 Million in Third Quarter of Fiscal 2024

  • Third Quarter Sales Grew 10% to $43.8 Million Driven by Defense Projects and Aftermarket Sales in Support of Refining and Petrochemical Markets
  • Gross Margin Expanded 660 Basis Points to 22.2% on Favorable Mix, Better Pricing and Improved Execution
  • Achieved Net Income of $0.2 Million; Adjusted Net Income1 and Adjusted EBITDA1 Improved to $2.4 Million and $3.9 Million, Respectively
  • Received a Record $123.3 Million in Orders, Primarily Related to Follow-on Orders for U.S. Navy Programs, Which Drove Backlog to Increase to $399.2 Million, of Which 84% Was Defense
  • Generated $7.6 Million of Cash From Operations and Reduced Debt Balance $7.9 Million During the Third Quarter
  • Expanded Turbomachinery Capabilities and Technology Solutions With P3 Technologies Acquisition
  • Increased Full Year Revenue and Adjusted EBITDA1 Guidance to Reflect Acquisition, Strong Core Growth, and Profitability Initiatives

Graham Corporation (NYSE: GHM) (“GHM” or the “Company”), a global leader in the design and manufacture of mission critical fluid, power, heat transfer and vacuum technologies for the defense, space, energy, and process industries, today reported financial results for its third quarter ended December 31, 2023 (“third quarter fiscal 2024”). Results include approximately two months of operations from the P3 Technologies, LLC (“P3”) acquisition, which was completed on November 9, 2023.

“Third quarter results were strong and we believe further demonstrated the continued execution of our strategy that is centered on driving quality top-line growth with margin accretive projects in order to improve our future earnings power,” commented Daniel J. Thoren, President and Chief Executive Officer. “There were several highlights during the quarter, which included improved financial performance with expanded gross and adjusted EBITDA margins1, strong bookings which drove record backlog of nearly $400 million, and a new lower cost, more flexible credit facility.

“Equally noteworthy was the acquisition of P3, a strategic bolt on business that is already enhancing our turbomachinery solutions and Graham’s margin profile. Importantly, our strong cash generation during the quarter enabled us to pay off nearly all the debt utilized in acquiring P3.”

Mr. Thoren concluded, “We believe our business is in a much-improved position given the strategic and necessary actions taken over the last few years. As we look forward, we are confident we can continue to execute our strategy and capitalize on the many opportunities in front of us. We are also focused on further elevating GHM by driving a collaborative spirit across our brands, leveraging best practices, and progressing employee development in support of our core capabilities.”

*Graham believes that adjusted net income, adjusted net income per diluted share, adjusted EBITDA (defined as consolidated net income before net interest expense, income taxes, depreciation, amortization, other acquisition related expenses (income), and other unusual/nonrecurring expenses), and adjusted EBITDA margin (adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of net sales), which are non-GAAP measures, help in the understanding of its operating performance. Moreover, Graham’s credit facility also contains ratios based on adjusted EBITDA as defined in the lending agreement. Graham also believes that adjusted net income and adjusted net income per diluted share, which excludes intangible amortization, other costs related to the acquisition, and other unusual/nonrecurring (income) expenses, provides a better representation of the cash earnings of the Company. See the attached tables and other information on pages 10 and 11 for important disclosures regarding Graham’s use of adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, adjusted net income, and adjusted net income per diluted share, as well as the reconciliation of net income to adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income, and adjusted net income per diluted share.

Net sales of $43.8 million increased 10%, or $3.9 million, and included approximately $1.0 million of incremental sales from P3. Sales to the defense market increased $2.6 million, or 12%. Aftermarket sales to the refining and petrochemical markets were $8.6 million, up $3.2 million, or 59%. Declines in the space market reflect timing of projects and the loss of a customer in April 2023 due to bankruptcy partially offset by revenue from P3. See supplemental data for a further breakdown of sales by market and region.

Gross margin expanded 660 basis points to 22.2%, which reflected higher volume and related improved absorption, higher margin commercial aftermarket sales, P3 margin accretive sales, improved execution and better pricing on defense contracts.

Selling, general and administrative expense (“SG&A”), excluding amortization, was $8.4 million, or 19% of sales, for the third quarter of fiscal 2024 compared with $5.3 million, or 13% of sales for the comparable prior-year period. The increase reflects higher performance-based compensation including supplemental performance bonus for Barber-Nichols employees (the “BN performance bonus”) in connection with the 2021 acquisition of Barber-Nichols LLC. Also contributing to the increase in SG&A was P3 acquisition-related costs, increased professional fees and initial enterprise resource planning (“ERP”) conversion costs.

Third quarter results reflected approximately $0.7 million of debt amendment costs.

Cash Management and Balance Sheet

Cash provided by operating activities was $19.5 million for the year-to-date period compared with $8.9 million in the prior-year period. The increase reflected higher net income along with improved working capital which was largely due to changes in payment terms related to large defense customers and stronger financial discipline.

Capital expenditures of $5.2 million year-to-date were focused on capacity expansion, productivity improvements and the start of the ERP implementation. The Company has adjusted its expected fiscal 2024 capital expenditures to be in the range of $8.0 million to $10.0 million from its previous expectations of $12.0 million to $13.5 million due to updated projected timing of cash outflows.

The Company acquired P3 on November 9, 2023 with a combination of cash, stock and contingent earn-out based upon the future performance of P3.

During the third quarter of fiscal 2024, the Company refinanced its debt with a new, five-year $50 million senior secured revolving credit facility. The new facility provides expanded flexibility with reduced borrowing costs. Total debt at quarter-end was $3.0 million, down from $11.7 million at year-end fiscal 2023. Subsequent to quarter-end, in January 2024, the remaining $3.0 million of debt was paid off.

Orders for the three-month period ended December 31, 2023, were a record $123.3 million. This included orders received in October primarily related to follow-on orders for critical U.S. Navy programs. These defense orders are expected to be recognized in revenue beginning in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2025 through early fiscal 2030. Aftermarket orders for the refining and petrochemical markets continued to be strong and were $7.8 million in the third quarter.

Backlog reached a record $399.2 million and was up 36% over the prior-year period and 27% sequentially. P3 added approximately $6 million to the backlog level. Approximately 40% of orders currently in backlog are expected to be converted to sales in the next twelve months and another 25% to 30% is expected to convert to sales over the following twelve months. The majority of orders expected to convert beyond twelve months are for the defense industry, specifically the U.S. Navy.

Safe Harbor Regarding Forward Looking Statements

This news release contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

Forward-looking statements are subject to risks, uncertainties and assumptions and are identified by words such as “expects,” “outlook,” “anticipates,” “believes,” “could,” “guidance,” “should,” ”may”, “will,” “plan” and other similar words. All statements addressing operating performance, events, or developments that Graham Corporation expects or anticipates will occur in the future, including but not limited to, profitability of future projects and the business, its ability to deliver to plan, its ability to continue to strengthen relationships with customers in the defense industry, its ability to secure future projects and applications, expected expansion and growth opportunities, anticipated sales, revenues, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margins, capital expenditures and SG&A expenses, the timing of conversion of backlog to sales, orders, market presence, profit margins, tax rates, foreign sales operations, customer preferences, changes in market conditions in the industries in which it operates, changes in general economic conditions and customer behavior, forecasts regarding the timing and scope of the economic recovery in its markets, and its acquisition and growth strategy, are forward-looking statements. Because they are forward-looking, they should be evaluated in light of important risk factors and uncertainties. These risk factors and uncertainties are more fully described in Graham Corporation’s most recent Annual Report filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), included under the heading entitled “Risk Factors”, and in other reports filed with the SEC.

Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize or should any of Graham Corporation’s underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary materially from those currently anticipated. In addition, undue reliance should not be placed on Graham Corporation’s forward-looking statements. Except as required by law, Graham Corporation disclaims any obligation to update or publicly announce any revisions to any of the forward-looking statements contained in this news release.

Forward-Looking Non-GAAP Measures

Forward-looking adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin are non-GAAP measures. The Company is unable to present a quantitative reconciliation of these forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable forward-looking GAAP financial measures because such information is not available, and management cannot reliably predict the necessary components of such GAAP measures without unreasonable effort largely because forecasting or predicting our future operating results is subject to many factors out of our control or not readily predictable. In addition, the Company believes that such reconciliations would imply a degree of precision that would be confusing or misleading to investors. The unavailable information could have a significant impact on the Company’s fiscal 2024 financial results. These non-GAAP financial measures are preliminary estimates and are subject to risks and uncertainties, including, among others, changes in connection with purchase accounting, quarter-end, and year-end adjustments. Any variation between the Company’s actual results and preliminary financial estimates set forth above may be material.

Key Performance Indicators

In addition to the foregoing non-GAAP measures, management uses the following key performance metrics to analyze and measure the Company’s financial performance and results of operations: orders, and backlog. Management uses orders and backlog as measures of current and future business and financial performance, and these may not be comparable with measures provided by other companies. Orders represent written communications received from customers requesting the Company to provide products and/or services. Backlog is defined as the total dollar value of net orders received for which revenue has not yet been recognized. Management believes tracking orders and backlog are useful as it often times is a leading indicator of future performance. In accordance with industry practice, contracts may include provisions for cancellation, termination, or suspension at the discretion of the customer.

Given that each of orders and backlog are operational measures and that the Company's methodology for calculating orders and backlog does not meet the definition of a non-GAAP measure, as that term is defined by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, a quantitative reconciliation for each is not required or provided.

** Acquisition and Integration Costs are incremental costs that are directly related to the P3 acquisition. These costs may include, among other things, professional, consulting and other fees, system integration costs, and fair value adjustments relating to contingent consideration. In connection with the acquisition of BN, we entered into the BN Performance Bonus agreement to provide employees of BN with a supplemental performance-based award based on the achievement of BN performance objectives for fiscal years ending March 31, 2024, 2025, and 2026 which can range between $2,000 to $4,000 per year. Debt Amendment Costs consists of accelerated write-offs of unamortized deferred debt issuance costs and discounts, prepayment penalties and attorney fees in connection with the amendment of our credit facility in October 2023. ERP Implementation Costs relate to consulting costs incurred in connection with the new ERP system being implemented throughout our Batavia, N.Y. facility and are not expected to reoccur once the project is completed.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Adjusted EBITDA is defined as consolidated net income (loss) before net interest expense, income taxes, depreciation, amortization, other acquisition related expenses, and other unusual/nonrecurring expenses. Adjusted EBITDA margin is defined as Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of sales. Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin are not measures determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States, commonly known as GAAP. Nevertheless, Graham believes that providing non-GAAP information, such as Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin, is important for investors and other readers of Graham's financial statements, as it is used as an analytical indicator by Graham's management to better understand operating performance. Moreover, Graham’s credit facility also contains ratios based on EBITDA. Because Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin are non-GAAP measures and are thus susceptible to varying calculations, Adjusted EBITDA, and Adjusted EBITDA margin, as presented, may not be directly comparable to other similarly titled measures used by other companies.

Adjusted net income (loss) and adjusted net income (loss) per diluted share are defined as net income (loss) and diluted earnings (loss) per share as reported, adjusted for certain items and at a normalized tax rate. Adjusted net income (loss) and adjusted net income (loss) per diluted share are not measures determined in accordance with GAAP and may not be comparable with the measures used by other companies. Nevertheless, Graham believes that providing non-GAAP information, such as adjusted net income (loss) and adjusted net income (loss) per diluted share, is important for investors and other readers of the Company’s financial statements and assists in understanding the comparison of the current quarter’s and current fiscal year's net income (loss) and net income (loss) per diluted share to the historical periods' net income (loss) and net income (loss) per diluted share. Graham also believes that adjusted net income (loss) per diluted share, which adds back intangible amortization expense related to acquisitions, provides a better representation of the cash earnings of the Company.
