Astronics Corporation (Nasdaq: ATRO) reported strong financial results for Q2 2022 with sales reaching $129.1 million, a 16% increase from the prior year.

EAST AURORA, N.Y.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Astronics Corporation (Nasdaq: ATRO) (“Astronics” or the “Company”), a leading supplier of advanced technologies and products to the global aerospace, defense and other mission critical industries, today reported financial results for the three and six months ended July 2, 2022.

Peter J. Gundermann, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer, commented, “Our second quarter sales of $129 million were our highest since the pandemic took hold in the first quarter of 2020, significantly exceeding the average revenue of $114 million in our previous four quarters. Demand stayed strong through the quarter, with consolidated bookings of $148 million. Our cumulative bookings for the last four quarters were $655 million, easily exceeding shipments during that same period of $473 million. These orders have resulted in another record backlog at the end of the second quarter and is expected to drive a significant sales ramp in the second half of 2022.”

He added, “Margins were under pressure in the second quarter, in part because we did not receive any AMJP nor earnout benefits like we have in recent quarters, but also because of inflation and supply chain challenges that are common these days. We are passing these costs on as we can, but our ability to respond in the short term is limited. Encouragingly, we have some evidence that our supply chain is beginning to loosen up, although risks remain.”

Second Quarter 2022 Results (compared with the prior-year period, unless noted otherwise)

Consolidated sales were up $18.0 million from the second quarter of 2021. Aerospace sales were up $20.1 million, or 22.5%, while Test System sales decreased $2.1 million.

Consolidated operating loss was $8.4 million, compared with operating loss of $5.9 million in the prior-year period. The prior year period benefited by a $2.2 million non-cash reduction of the fair value of a contingent consideration liability related to the 2019 acquisition of Diagnosys Test Systems that offset SG&A expenses. Compared with the first quarter of 2022, operating loss increased as a result of not having the benefit of the $6.0 million Aviation Manufacturing Jobs Protection Program grant combined with the impact of material and labor inflation, addressing supply chain constraints to meet customer requirements, the lag in price increases implemented where possible to offset higher costs and product mix.

Tax expense in the quarter was $0.6 million primarily due to the impact of the required capitalization of research and development costs for tax purposes.

Consolidated net loss was $11.0 million, or $0.34 per diluted share, compared with net loss of $8.1 million, or $0.26 per diluted share, in the prior year.

Consolidated adjusted EBITDA improved to $1.2 million, or 0.9% of consolidated sales, compared with adjusted EBITDA of $0.4 million, or 0.3% of consolidated sales, in the prior-year period.

Bookings were $148.4 million in the quarter resulting in a book-to-bill ratio of 1.15:1. Backlog at the end of the quarter reached another record of $494.4 million for the third consecutive quarter. Approximately $278.0 million, or 56%, of backlog is expected to ship in the remainder of 2022.

Aerospace Segment Review (refer to sales by market and segment data in accompanying tables)

Aerospace Second Quarter 2022 Results (compared with the prior-year period, unless noted otherwise)

Aerospace segment sales increased $20.1 million, or 22.5%, to $109.3 million. Commercial aerospace sales increased 44.9%, or $21.5 million, and drove the improvement. Sales to this market were $69.2 million compared with $47.8 million in the second quarter of 2021. Improving domestic airline travel that is driving higher fleet utilization and increased narrowbody production rates, including the 737 MAX, resulted in higher demand for Astronics’ products.

General Aviation sales increased $3.1 million, or 20.9%, to a near record $18.1 million due in part to higher demand in the business jet market for antenna products. The Company expects the strong end user demand in the business jet industry to drive higher OEM production rates in the near future, resulting in higher demand for its products.

Military Aircraft sales decreased $2.9 million, or 17.3%, to $13.9 million. The prior-year period benefited from incremental non-recurring engineering revenue associated with development programs and higher sales of avionics products.

Aerospace segment operating loss was $3.3 million compared with operating loss of $2.7 million for the same period last year. Higher operating losses were driven by inflationary impacts on input costs and inefficiencies associated with production execution due to supply chain constraints that restricted shipment volume.

Aerospace bookings in the second quarter of 2022 were $126.0 million for a book-to-bill ratio of 1.15:1. Bookings were down 22% sequentially, but up 7% over the comparator quarter of 2021, continuing the strong trend of improvement since the pandemic took hold. Backlog for the Aerospace segment was a record $410.8 million at the end of the second quarter of 2022.

Mr. Gundermann commented, “During the quarter, we announced some significant program wins. These included the award by Southwest Airlines to provide in-seat power systems, selection by Safran to provide satellite communication hardware for Airbus aircraft and being named the designer and developer of the electrical power distribution system for the Lilium eVTOL aircraft, our first announced eVTOL program. While these wins did not contribute meaningfully to bookings in the quarter, we expect they will be major drivers for our business going forward.”

Test Systems Segment Review (refer to sales by market and segment data in accompanying tables)

Test Systems Second Quarter 2022 Results (compared with the prior-year period, unless noted otherwise)

Test Systems segment sales were $19.8 million, down $2.1 million compared with the prior-year period driven by lower defense revenue.

Test Systems was nearly break-even compared with operating loss of $0.9 million, or (4.3)% of sales, in the second quarter of 2021. Continued lower volume has driven operating losses in the second quarters of 2022 and 2021.

Bookings for the Test Systems segment in the quarter were $22.4 million, for a book-to-bill ratio of 1.13:1 for the quarter. Backlog was $83.6 million at the end of the second quarter of 2022.

Mr. Gundermann noted, “Our Test business has been pursuing some significant awards which have been delayed to the second half of the year. Our go-forward plan assumes that these awards will be made in the near future, supporting our plans for 2023 and beyond.”

Liquidity and Financing

Cash on hand at the end of the quarter was $10.7 million and capital expenditures in the quarter were $1.3 million. Net debt was down to $125.3 million, compared with $133.2 million at the end of 2021.

On August 9, 2022, the Company entered into an amended and extended revolving credit facility with its bank group. The purpose of the amendment was to extend the scheduled expiration of the agreement from May 30, 2023 to August 31, 2023, giving the Company more time to complete the refinancing of its revolving credit facility, which it expects to have complete in the coming months. The Company was in compliance with its financial covenants as of July 2, 2022.

Dave Burney, Chief Financial Officer, commented, “We have made steady progress towards refinancing our existing lending facility, and we expect the process will be completed in the coming weeks. The extension gives us time to finalize an appropriate agreement in collaboration with our bank group.”

2022 Outlook

Mr. Gundermann commented, “We are revising our expected 2022 revenue to be in the range of $550 million to $580 million, which incorporates a reduction at the high end of the range from previous guidance. The midpoint of this range would mean growth for the year of 27% over 2021 and implies average quarterly revenue of $160 million in the second half, a significant step up from recent levels. This ramp is expected to be weighted more toward the fourth quarter, however, and while we continue to be challenged by ongoing supply chain challenges, we believe today that this expansion in revenue is necessary and achievable. Higher volume will help satisfy customer demand, along with improved profitability and momentum as we close out 2022.”

Planned capital expenditures for 2022 are expected to be approximately $9 million to $10 million.

Reconciliation to Non-GAAP Performance Measures

In addition to reporting net income, a U.S. generally accepted accounting principle (“GAAP”) measure, we present Adjusted EBITDA (earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, non-cash equity-based compensation expense, goodwill, intangible and long-lived asset impairment charges, equity investment income or loss, legal reserves, settlements and recoveries, restructuring charges, gains or losses associated with the sale of businesses and grant benefits recorded related to the AMJP program), which is a non-GAAP measure. The Company’s management believes Adjusted EBITDA is an important measure of operating performance because it allows management, investors and others to evaluate and compare the performance of its core operations from period to period by removing the impact of the capital structure (interest), tangible and intangible asset base (depreciation and amortization), taxes, equity-based compensation expense, goodwill, intangible and long-lived asset impairment charges, equity investment income or loss, legal reserves, settlements and recoveries, restructuring charges, fair value adjustments to the valuation of contingent consideration liabilities, gains or losses associated with the sale of businesses and grant benefits recorded related to the AMJP program, which is not commensurate with the core activities of the reporting period in which it is included. As such, the Company uses Adjusted EBITDA as a measure of performance when evaluating its business and as a basis for planning and forecasting. Adjusted EBITDA is not a measure of financial performance under GAAP and is not calculated through the application of GAAP. As such, it should not be considered as a substitute for the GAAP measure of net income and, therefore, should not be used in isolation of, but in conjunction with, the GAAP measure. Adjusted EBITDA, as presented, may produce results that vary from the GAAP measure and may not be comparable to a similarly defined non-GAAP measure used by other companies.
