Management Comments  

“Our second-quarter results reflect the resilience of our business model as we continue to transform Altra into a premier industrial company and technology leader,” said Carl Christenson, Altra’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “The Altra team once again did an exceptional job executing our long-term business strategy while mitigating near-term supply chain, labor constraints and inflation headwinds. As a result, we delivered strong Q2 results highlighted by double-digit sales and Non-GAAP earnings per diluted share growth on a pro-forma basis, positive cash flows, and a record-level backlog supported by strong incoming order rates.

“During the quarter, margins remained relatively steady as our pricing and surcharge initiatives offset the effects of rising inflation. We have implemented additional pricing actions to continue to protect margins and we will take further action if necessary.

“We continue to execute our strategy to strengthen our balance sheet and position our portfolio with highly engineered products in the motion control and power transmission markets. We have made great progress with the integration of our Nook acquisition – a testament to our ability to identify and execute on value-adding M&A opportunities. We are on track to achieve targeted synergies and are thrilled with the caliber of the people, systems and technology that came with the acquisition. We also closed on the JVS divestiture on April 8^th and used proceeds from the sale to pay down debt and further reduce our leverage and expect our efforts to lower our leverage to continue throughout the remainder of the year.

“Although economic signals point to increased uncertainty, we believe the underlying health of our Company and our industry remain very strong. We are seeing pent-up demand and CapEx investments being made across many markets, including late cycle and automation, and expect that to continue. We are also confident that Altra is well-positioned to navigate through this period as we have demonstrated in the past. We have a clear strategy, an exceptional team, a proven operational playbook and a track record of driving growth, margin expansion and strong cashflow through a range of market conditions.”

Business Outlook 

Christenson concluded, “Today we are updating our 2022 guidance. Notably, we continue to expect earnings to be equal or higher compared to the prior year, despite a $194 million revenue reset related to the JVS divestiture.”   

Altra is providing updated guidance for the full year 2022 as follows:

*Discussion of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The non-GAAP financial measures used in this release are utilized by management in comparing our operating performance on a consistent basis. We believe that these financial measures are appropriate to enhance the overall understanding of our underlying operating performance trends compared to historical and prospective periods and our peers. We believe that these measures provide important supplemental information to management and investors regarding financial and business trends relating to the Company's financial condition and results of operations as well as insight into the compliance with our debt covenants. Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, financial information calculated in accordance with GAAP. Investors are encouraged to review the reconciliation of these non-GAAP measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures. Our industry peers may provide similar supplemental non-GAAP information with respect to one or more of these measures, although they may not use the same or comparable terminology and may not make identical adjustments. A reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures presented above to our GAAP results has been provided in the financial tables included in this press release.
