BROOMFIELD, Colo., May 04, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- DMC Global Inc. (Nasdaq: BOOM) today reported financial results for its first quarter ended March 31, 2023.

“The first quarter represented a strong start to 2023, and reflects continued healthy demand in the markets served by our three differentiated manufacturing businesses,” said David Aldous, director and interim co-CEO. “Our record consolidated sales resulted from strong top-line results at our businesses, each of which also delivered sequential gross margins improvements. The quarter also was marked by important progress in our strategy to improve business-level operating efficiencies and strengthen the profitability of DMC.”

Michael Kuta, interim co-CEO, said, “Arcadia, our architectural building products business, delivered sales of $80.3 million, up 8% sequentially and 18% year over year. Arcadia benefitted from resilient pricing and healthy demand across multiple end markets, including industrial construction, manufacturing, medical, education and hospitality.

“Arcadia’s adjusted EBITDA margin of 13% was up 340 basis points sequentially, reflecting the beginning of an anticipated recovery in profitability following several quarters of compressed margins that resulted from aluminum price volatility.

“DynaEnergetics, our energy products business, reported sales of $82.0 million, up 6% sequentially and 68% year over year. Well completion activity in Dyna’s international and North American markets remains strong; and effective execution by the commercial and manufacturing teams led to the eleventh consecutive quarter of increased unit sales of our fully integrated DS perforating systems.”

Kuta said DynaEnergetics’ adjusted EBITDA margin of 18% was down 40 basis points sequentially, but up 740 basis points versus the first quarter last year. This sequential decline reflects the impact of $3.1 million in litigation expense. DMC expects significantly lower quarterly litigation expense going forward.

“Sales at NobelClad, our composite metals business, were $22.0 million, down 5% sequentially and flat versus the first quarter last year. NobelClad delivered another solid quarter of bookings, which drove its order backlog to a 10-year high of $60 million. Healthy activity in NobelClad’s core energy and petrochemical markets, combined with a strong order backlog, should result in sequential sales growth of approximately 10% in the second quarter.”
     
Eric Walter, CFO, said “Our first quarter selling, general and administrative expense (SG&A) of $39.3 million included approximately $9 million of charges related to patent litigation, CEO transition costs and related accelerated stock vesting. The elimination of these expenses would put us in our targeted quarterly SG&A range of approximately $30 million.”

Aldous said, “Despite macroeconomic uncertainties, we are optimistic about DMC’s prospects for growth and improved profitability during 2023. The medium to long-range outlook at DynaEnergetics is encouraging, particularly as major energy companies increase their investments in North America’s lower risk, lower-cost unconventional oil and gas basins. Arcadia’s diverse end markets continue to be resilient, and the business is making progress on its ERP and capacity expansion initiatives. NobelClad’s strong backlog and broad product offering also bode well for future growth.”

• First quarter net income attributable to DMC was $0.9 million, or $(0.01) per diluted share, versus a net loss attributable to DMC stockholders in the prior-year first quarter of $(3.3) million, or $(0.47) per diluted share.
• DMC’s debt-to-adjusted EBITDA leverage ratio at March 31, 2023, was 1.47. The Company’s debt-to-adjusted EBITDA leverage ratio covenant for the end of the quarter was 3.25.

*Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income (loss), and adjusted diluted earnings per share are non-GAAP (generally accepted accounting principles) financial measures used by management to measure operating performance and liquidity. Non-GAAP results are presented only as a supplement to the financial statements based on U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). The non-GAAP financial information is provided to enhance the reader’s understanding of DMC’s financial performance, but no non-GAAP measure should be considered in isolation or as a substitute for financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. Reconciliations of the most directly comparable GAAP measures to non-GAAP measures are provided within the schedules attached to this release.

EBITDA is defined as net income (loss) plus or minus net interest plus taxes, depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA excludes from EBITDA stock-based compensation, restructuring and impairment charges and, when appropriate, other items that management does not utilize in assessing DMC’s operating performance (as further described in the attached financial schedules). Adjusted net income (loss) is defined as net income (loss) attributable to DMC stockholders plus restructuring and impairment charges (if applicable) and, when appropriate, other items that management does not utilize in assessing DMC’s operating performance. Adjusted diluted earnings per share is defined as diluted earnings per share plus restructuring and impairment charges (if applicable) and, when appropriate, other items that management does not utilize in assessing DMC’s operating performance. None of these non-GAAP financial measures are recognized terms under GAAP and do not purport to be an alternative to net income (loss) as an indicator of operating performance or any other GAAP measure.

Management uses adjusted EBITDA in its operational and financial decision-making, believing that it is useful to eliminate certain items in order to focus on what it deems to be a more reliable indicator of ongoing operating performance. As a result, internal management reports used during monthly operating reviews feature adjusted EBITDA measures. Management believes that investors may find this non-GAAP financial measure useful for similar reasons, although investors are cautioned that non-GAAP financial measures are not a substitute for GAAP disclosures. In addition, management incentive awards are based, in part, on the amount of adjusted EBITDA achieved during relevant periods. EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA are also used by research analysts, investment bankers and lenders to assess operating performance. For example, a measure similar to adjusted EBITDA is required by the lenders under DMC’s credit facility.

Adjusted net income (loss) and adjusted diluted earnings per share are presented because management believes these measures are useful to understand the effects of restructuring and impairment charges (if applicable) and, when appropriate, other items that management does not utilize in assessing DMC’s operating performance, on DMC’s net income (loss) and diluted earnings per share, respectively.

Because not all companies use identical calculations, DMC’s presentation of non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies. However, these measures can still be useful in evaluating the company’s performance against its peer companies because management believes the measures provide users with valuable insight into key components of GAAP financial disclosures. For example, a company with greater GAAP net income may not be as appealing to investors if its net income is more heavily comprised of gains on asset sales. Likewise, eliminating the effects of interest income and expense moderates the impact of a company’s capital structure on its performance.

All of the items included in the reconciliation from net income to EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA are either (i) non-cash items (e.g., depreciation, amortization of purchased intangible assets and stock-based compensation) or (ii) items that management does not consider to be useful in assessing DMC’s operating performance (e.g., income taxes, restructuring and impairment charges, CEO transition expenses). In the case of the non-cash items, management believes that investors can better assess the company’s operating performance if the measures are presented without such items because, unlike cash expenses, these adjustments do not affect DMC’s ability to generate free cash flow or invest in its business. For example, by adjusting for depreciation and amortization in computing EBITDA, users can compare operating performance without regard to different accounting determinations such as useful life. In the case of the other items, management believes that investors can better assess operating performance if the measures are presented without these items because their financial impact does not reflect ongoing operating performance.
