Insights

An examination of DMC Global Inc.'s fourth quarter and full-year financial results reveals a mixed financial performance with implications for investors and market analysts. The reported flat sales in Q4, with a slight increase in net income, contrast with the full-year record sales and adjusted EBITDA, indicating a robust annual performance despite a challenging final quarter. The divergence in performance across the company's business segments, particularly the decline in Arcadia's Q4 sales juxtaposed with NobelClad's significant year-over-year growth, underscores the importance of segment-specific strategies and market conditions.

From a financial perspective, the introduction of a new $300 million senior secured credit facility is a noteworthy development, as it suggests a stronger capital structure and enhanced financial flexibility. This move is likely to be viewed positively by investors, as it may support the company's growth initiatives while maintaining manageable leverage and debt-service costs. However, the reported increase in SG&A expenses year-on-year, although moderate, could be a point of concern as it may reflect rising operational costs that could impact future profitability.

The strategic review of alternative structures for DMC’s portfolio, including NobelClad and DynaEnergetics, indicates a proactive approach to optimizing the company's asset mix. This could lead to potential divestitures or acquisitions, which may have significant implications for the company's future performance and stock valuation.

The reported conditions in the industrial end markets, particularly the varied performance of DMC's business segments, provide insights into broader industry trends. Arcadia's lower pricing impact in certain U.S. markets may reflect competitive pressures or a shift in demand dynamics, which could have broader implications for the architectural building products industry. Conversely, NobelClad's strong quarter, driven by healthy market conditions and favorable product mix, suggests robust demand in the composite metals sector, which could signal opportunities for industry growth and innovation.

Additionally, the mention of the new Gravity 2.0 self-orienting perforating system by DynaEnergetics points to technological advancements within the oilfield products sector. The anticipated demand for this system, along with the expected margin benefits from improved manufacturing efficiencies, may indicate a positive outlook for the segment, which could influence market expectations and investment considerations within the oil and gas industry.

The economic implications of DMC Global Inc.'s financial results are multi-faceted. The company's ability to maintain flat sales in a challenging quarter suggests resilience in the face of economic headwinds, which could be indicative of a stable demand for industrial products. The significant increase in full-year net income and adjusted EBITDA reflects an overall successful fiscal year, possibly driven by effective cost management and strategic pricing decisions. This performance may contribute to a positive perception of the company's economic health and its ability to navigate market fluctuations.

However, the report of varied conditions across industrial end markets, including the impact of industry consolidation on pricing, highlights the sensitivity of DMC's businesses to macroeconomic factors and industry-specific trends. Investors and economists alike may interpret these conditions as signals of underlying economic pressures that could affect the company's future performance, such as changes in commodity prices, trade policies and competitive dynamics within the industrial sector.

BROOMFIELD, Colo., Feb. 22, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- DMC Global Inc. (Nasdaq: BOOM) today reported financial results for its fourth quarter ended December 31, 2023.

Michael Kuta, president and CEO, said, “The fourth quarter marked the end of a milestone year for DMC. In addition to reporting record sales, adjusted EBITDA and free cash flow, we refined the operating strategies of our three businesses and initiated a review of alternative structures for DMC’s portfolio as part of a broader strategy for enhancing stakeholder value.

“At the business level, the fourth quarter was notable for the varied conditions across our industrial end markets. At Arcadia, our architectural building products business, lower pricing impacted several of our markets in the western and southwestern United States. Arcadia’s fourth quarter sales were $68.0 million, down 9% from the 2022 fourth quarter. Adjusted EBITDA margin improved to 13.6% from 9.6% in the comparable 2022 fourth quarter, as the decline in product pricing was not as pronounced as the drop in raw material costs.

“DynaEnergetics, our oilfield products business, reported continued strong demand in its international and North American markets. However, industry consolidation in the United States impacted pricing. Dyna’s fourth quarter sales were $75.3 million, down 3% versus the 2022 fourth quarter, but up 3% sequentially. Adjusted EBITDA margin was 12.3% versus 18.6% in the prior-year fourth quarter and 17.2% in the 2023 third quarter. We expect the new automation and operational-excellence initiatives coming on-line in 2024 will improve profitability at Dyna.

“NobelClad, our composite metals business, continued to capitalize on healthy market conditions and delivered a very strong fourth quarter. Sales of $30.8 million were up 33% year-over-year. The increase, combined with a favorable product mix, led to adjusted EBITDA margins of 24.7%, up from 14.8% in the 2022 fourth quarter.

“While challenging conditions in Arcadia’s markets will lead to a soft first quarter, we anticipate the business will experience improved demand during the balance of the year. Moreover, the recent addition of new painting capacity has improved Arcadia’s ability to capitalize on expected increases in activity.

“At Dyna, strong demand for the new Gravity 2.0 self-orienting perforating system should be additive to the expected margin benefits of improved manufacturing efficiencies. We believe 2024 will be another strong year at NobelClad, as there are a broad range of large project opportunities for both traditional and new clad-plate applications.

“As we enter 2024, our primary objective is to unlock value for DMC’s shareholders,” Kuta said. “Two key steps in this process are the simplification of our portfolio and maximizing the long-term growth opportunities at Arcadia. We are working with our financial advisors to explore strategic alternatives for NobelClad and DynaEnergetics, two valuable and innovative businesses that will continue to lead their respective industries. We also intend to capitalize on Arcadia’s differentiated business model and large addressable market, and are pursuing a range of compelling growth initiatives.”

Eric Walter, CFO, said “Our new $300 million senior secured credit facility has strengthened DMC’s balance sheet and enhanced our financial flexibility as we execute our strategy. We believe we can fund our growth programs while maintaining our leverage and debt-service costs at prudent levels.”

Kuta added, “We have the strategy, the leadership team and the capital structure to be successful. We also have an extraordinary team of dedicated employees who have enabled the success of our businesses. I sincerely thank them for their continued dedication.”

*Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In addition to disclosing financial results that are determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (GAAP), the Company also discloses certain non-GAAP financial measures that we use in operational and financial decision making. Non-GAAP financial measures include the following:

  • EBITDA: defined as net income (loss) plus net interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization.
  • Adjusted EBITDA: excludes from EBITDA stock-based compensation, restructuring expenses and asset impairment charges (if applicable) and, when appropriate, nonrecurring items that management does not utilize in assessing DMC’s operating performance (as further described in the tables below).
  • Adjusted EBITDA attributable to DMC Global Inc. stockholders: excludes the Adjusted EBITDA attributable to the 40% redeemable noncontrolling interest in Arcadia Products.
  • Adjusted EBITDA for DMC business segments: defined as operating income (loss) plus depreciation, amortization, allocated stock-based compensation (if applicable), restructuring expenses and asset impairment charges (if applicable) and, when appropriate, nonrecurring items that management does not utilize in assessing operating performance.
  • Adjusted net income (loss): defined as net income (loss) attributable to DMC Global Inc. stockholders prior to the adjustment of redeemable noncontrolling interest plus restructuring expenses and asset impairment charges (if applicable) and, when appropriate, nonrecurring items that management does not utilize in assessing DMC’s operating performance.
  • Adjusted diluted earnings per share: defined as diluted earnings per share attributable to DMC Global Inc. stockholders (exclusive of adjustment of redeemable noncontrolling interest) plus restructuring expenses and asset impairment charges (if applicable) and, when appropriate, nonrecurring items that management does not utilize in assessing DMC’s operating performance.
  • Net debt: defined as total debt less total cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities.
  • Free-cash flow: defined as cash flows provided by (used in) operating activities less net acquisitions of property, plant and equipment.

Management believes providing these additional financial measures is useful to investors in understanding the Company’s operating performance, including the effects of restructuring, impairment, and other nonrecurring charges, as well as its liquidity. Management typically monitors the business utilizing the above non-GAAP measures, in addition to GAAP results, to understand and compare operating results across accounting periods, and certain management incentive awards are based, in part, on these measures. The presence of non-GAAP financial measures in this report is not intended to suggest that such measures be considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or as superior to, DMC’s GAAP information, and investors are cautioned that the non-GAAP financial measures are limited in their usefulness.

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.
