  • Shipped an additional U.S. Navy unit and remain on schedule to ship the remaining first article units by the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2024

Graham Corporation (NYSE: GHM), 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 second quarter ended September 30, 2022 (“second quarter fiscal 2023”).

Daniel J. Thoren, President and CEO, commented, “Our second quarter results demonstrate the progress we are making to improve our business and clear the unprofitable jobs from our backlog. We are pleased with the growth we are seeing in space and new energy and are encouraged by the increased activity in our traditional refining and petrochemical commercial aftermarkets, which is a strategic focus for us. Importantly, we believe the large repeat orders for critical U.S. Navy programs that we previously announced validate the investments we made, our position as a key supplier to the defense industry, and our customer’s confidence in our execution.”

He added, “I am excited about the cadence we are developing as an organization as we seek to improve our profitability. We are carefully managing costs, yet also strategically investing to create the necessary infrastructure to scale Graham and build a better business. Our outlook for fiscal 2023 implies strong growth and improved profitability for the year. Although we have a lot of hard work ahead of us, we believe we are on track to deliver our five-year aspirational goals of high single digit revenue growth and adjusted EBITDA margins in the low double digit to mid-teens range.”

*Graham believes that adjusted EBITDA (defined as consolidated net income (loss) 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 diluted earnings (loss) per 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 9 and 10 for important disclosures regarding Graham’s use of adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin and adjusted diluted earnings (loss) per share, as well as the reconciliation of net income (loss) to adjusted EBITDA and diluted earnings (loss) per share.

Mr. Thoren concluded, “Our results for the first half of fiscal 2023 were in-line with our expectations and give us confidence we will be able to achieve our full fiscal year guidance. Fiscal 2022 and year-to-date fiscal 2023 results were impacted by our larger, lower margin, first article U.S. Navy projects. We believe this negative impact will continue through the first quarter of 2024 when the last of these larger first article projects are expected to be completed. We expect the recently awarded repeat orders for the U.S. Navy will be at higher margins through improved pricing and better execution.” It is also important to note that the Company's third quarter is typically impacted by lower labor hours due to the holidays.

Sales (see supplemental financial information for detail of sales by industry and region)

  • Sales growth year-over-year was driven by space revenue increasing $3.0 million, more than double the prior-year period.
  • Chemical/petrochemical and refining growth of $3.6 million was driven by aftermarket orders and helped offset the decline in defense sales due to project timing.
  • Other commercial markets sales of $5.6 million included sales related to new energy, which is primarily hydrogen and solar energy markets.

Profits and Margins

  • Gross profit and margin improved over the prior year period on a better mix of higher margin projects and better execution and pricing. The sequential decline in gross profit margin was a result of a higher mix of lower margin sales and was consistent with our expectations.
  • Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expense, including intangible amortization, was $5.3 million, up 1.6% or $85,000. SG&A expense as a percentage of sales improved to 14% compared with 15% in the comparable period in fiscal 2022.
  • Increased sales, improved execution, and strong cost discipline resulted in reductions in operating and net loss to near breakeven and the improvement in adjusted EBITDA and adjusted diluted EPS. Results continue to reflect lower margin orders from the U.S. Navy received several years ago.

Cash Management and Balance Sheet

  • Capital expenditures in the quarter were $0.9 million. The Company has reduced its capital expenditure expectations for fiscal 2023 to be approximately $3 million to $4 million reflecting the timing of projects and cash management efforts.
  • Net debt (debt minus cash and cash equivalents) at quarter end was $5.0 million, up slightly from $4.2 million at the end of the trailing first quarter due to the timing of milestone payments.

Christopher J. Thome, Vice President-Finance and CFO, noted, “We have instituted strong cash management discipline throughout the organization. This includes actively managing working capital and operating expenses while increasing oversight of capital expenditures to ensure proper return on capital. Our cash management efforts align well with other business processes we are incorporating throughout Graham to elevate the engagement and awareness of our associates on their influence to our performance and opportunities as a growing enterprise.”

Orders for second quarter fiscal 2023 were up $60.1 million, or 192%, to $91.5 million. The book-to-bill ratio for the quarter was 2.4:1.

  • Strong defense industry orders of $69.6 million were driven by repeat orders for critical U.S. Navy programs.
  • Space orders grew 58% to $3.7 million and was driven by demand across multiple key space-industry companies.
  • Refining orders were $8.7 million, up 74% driven primarily by aftermarket demand, which the Company views as a leading indicator of future capital investments by customers in this market.

Of the $313 million in backlog, approximately 40% to 45% is expected to convert to sales over the next twelve months. Most of the backlog expected to convert beyond twelve months is for the defense industry, specifically the U.S. Navy.

Backlog by industry on September 30, 2022, was as follows:

  • 79% for defense projects
  • 9% for refinery projects
  • 4% for chemical/petrochemical projects
  • 4% for space projects
  • 4% for other industrial applications

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”, “suggests,” ”may”, “will,” 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, the development and impact of improved processes and cost controls, its ability to meet customers’ shipment and delivery expectations, the future impact of low margin defense projects and related cost overruns, expected expansion and growth opportunities within its domestic and international markets, anticipated sales, revenues, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margins, capital expenditures and SG&A expenses, the timing of conversion of backlog to sales, market presence, profit margins, tax rates, foreign sales operations, its ability to improve cost competitiveness and productivity, customer preferences, changes in market conditions in the industries in which it operates, the effect on its business of volatility in commodities prices, including, but not limited to, changes in general economic conditions and customer behavior, forecasts regarding the timing and scope of the economic recovery in its markets, its acquisition and growth strategy and its operations in China, India and other international locations, 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, included under the heading entitled “Risk Factors.”

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 2023 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.

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 diluted earnings (loss) per 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 diluted earnings (loss) per share are not measures determined in accordance with GAAP, and may not be comparable to the measures as used by other companies. Nevertheless, Graham believes that providing non-GAAP information, such as adjusted net income and adjusted diluted earnings (loss) per 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 diluted earnings (loss) per share to the historical periods' net income (loss) and diluted earnings (loss) per share. Graham also believes that adjusted earnings (loss) per share, which adds back intangible amortization expense related to acquisitions, provides a better representation of the cash earnings of the Company.
