Materion Corporation Reports Record Third Quarter 2023 Results

Materion Corporation (NYSE: MTRN) today reported third quarter financial results and affirmed the midpoint of the 2023 earnings guidance.

Third Quarter 2023 Highlights

• Net sales were $403.1 million; value-added sales¹ were $270.5 million
• Strong third quarter operating profit of $36.5 million versus $29.1 million in the prior year; record third quarter adjusted EBITDA² of $55.4 million versus $48.8 million in the prior year, an increase of 14%
• Record third quarter net income of $1.27 per share, diluted, and record adjusted earnings of $1.51 per share
• Affirmed full year earnings outlook midpoint of $5.80 per share, a 10% increase year over year

Growth Highlights

• Announced multiple new opportunities in space & defense, accelerating the organic growth pipeline
• Outperformed adjusted EBITDA margin target of 20% for second consecutive quarter
• Delivered twelfth consecutive quarter of adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EPS growth

“As a result of the outstanding efforts and dedication of our global team, we delivered another quarter of record earnings, raising the bar for operational excellence and delivering critical products and solutions for our customers,” Jugal Vijayvargiya, Materion President and CEO said.

“Our unique capabilities and exceptional technical expertise continue to unlock new organic growth opportunities aligned with global megatrends,” Vijayvargiya said. “These commercial wins and new partnerships have helped offset the impact of softness in some of our end markets, while seeding the pipeline for long-term sustainable growth.”

THIRD QUARTER 2023 RESULTS

Net sales for the quarter were $403.1 million, compared to $428.2 million in the prior year period. Value-added sales were $270.5 million for the quarter, down 5% from prior year due to continued semiconductor market softness, partially offset by strength in aerospace & defense, telecom & data center and precision clad strip.

Operating profit for the quarter was $36.5 million and net income was $26.6 million, or $1.27 per diluted share, compared to operating profit of $29.1 million and net income of $20.0 million, or $0.96 per diluted share in the prior year period.

Excluding special items³ primarily related to the targeted cost improvement initiatives, adjusted EBITDA was $55.4 million in the quarter, compared to $48.8 million in the prior year period. The increase was driven mainly by strong price/mix and operational performance.

Adjusted net income was $31.6 million excluding acquisition amortization, or $1.51 per diluted share, an increase of 15% compared to $1.31 per share in the prior year period.

OUTLOOK

With accelerating contributions from our megatrend-aligned organic pipeline, coupled with strong operational performance, we remain confident in our ability to execute and deliver another year of record results. Despite the slower than expected market recovery, we are narrowing the range and affirming the midpoint of our full-year adjusted earnings per share guidance in the range of $5.70 to $5.90, an increase of 10% at the midpoint versus the prior year.

ADJUSTED EARNINGS GUIDANCE

It is not possible for the Company to identify the amount or significance of future adjustments associated with potential insurance and litigation claims, legacy environmental costs, acquisition and integration costs, certain income tax items, or other non-routine costs that the Company adjusts in the presentation of adjusted earnings guidance. These items are dependent on future events that are not reasonably estimable at this time. Accordingly, the Company is unable to reconcile without unreasonable effort the forecasted range of adjusted earnings guidance for the full year to a comparable GAAP range. However, items excluded from the Company's adjusted earnings guidance include the historical adjustments noted in Attachments 4 through 9 to this press release.

The cost of gold, silver, platinum, palladium, copper, ruthenium, iridium, rhodium, rhenium, and osmium is passed through to customers and, therefore, the trends and comparisons of net sales are affected by movements in the market price of these metals. Internally, management also reviews net sales on a value-added basis. Value-added sales is a non-GAAP financial measure that deducts the value of the pass-through metals sold from net sales. Value-added sales allows management to assess the impact of differences in net sales between periods or segments and analyze the resulting margins and profitability without the distortion of the movements in pass-through market metal prices. The dollar amount of gross margin and operating profit is not affected by the value-added sales calculation. The Company sells other metals and materials that are not considered direct pass throughs, and these costs are not deducted from net sales to calculate value-added sales.
The Company’s pricing policy is to pass the cost of these metals on to customers in order to mitigate the impact of price volatility on the Company’s results from operations. Value-added information is being presented since changes in metal prices may not directly impact profitability. It is the Company’s intent to allow users of the financial statements to review sales with and without the impact of the pass-through metals.

In addition to presenting financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), this earnings release contains financial measures, including operating profit, segment operating profit, earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, depletion and amortization (EBITDA), net income, and earnings per share, on a non-GAAP basis. As detailed in the above reconciliation and Attachment 6, we have adjusted the results for certain special items such as restructuring and cost reductions (which includes costs associated with temporarily idled facilities as a result of decreased demand), additional start up resources and scrap and merger and acquisition costs. Internally, management reviews the results of operations without the impact of these costs in order to assess the profitability from ongoing activities. We are providing this information because we believe it will assist investors in analyzing our financial results and, when viewed in conjunction with the GAAP results, provide a more comprehensive understanding of the factors and trends affecting our operations.
