Insights

Cadre Holdings delivered record financial results for Q4 and full-year 2024, with $567.6 million in annual revenue representing 17.6% year-over-year growth. The company's Q4 performance was particularly strong, with revenue surging 41.3% to $176 million and Adjusted EBITDA jumping 86% to $38.5 million.

The expansion of Adjusted EBITDA margin to 18.5% for the full year (up 70 basis points) demonstrates improving operational efficiency despite a slight dip in annual gross margin to 41.1%. While annual net income decreased marginally to $36.1 million, Q4 net income grew 35.4%, showing accelerating profitability.

The company's strategic acquisition of Carr's Engineering Division for £75 million strengthens Cadre's position in the nuclear safety market and expands its international footprint. Management has secured robust financing with new credit facilities up to $590 million, providing ample capital for both this acquisition and future growth opportunities.

Cadre's 8.6% dividend increase signals management's confidence in sustained cash flow generation. The 2025 guidance projecting revenue of $572-601 million and Adjusted EBITDA of $105-115 million suggests continued, though more moderate, growth compared to 2024's impressive performance.

Cadre Holdings has effectively capitalized on robust demand for mission-critical safety equipment in law enforcement, military and first responder markets. The 17.6% revenue growth demonstrates the company's strong market position in a sector where quality and reliability command premium pricing.

The expansion into nuclear safety through the Carr's Engineering acquisition represents strategic diversification that reduces dependence on government procurement cycles. By adding automation, robotics and nuclear medicine capabilities, Cadre is positioning itself in higher-margin, specialized segments with significant barriers to entry.

Their gross margin performance of 43.9% in Q4 shows strengthening pricing power and manufacturing efficiency in their core product segments. The company's ability to improve Product segment margin to 45.4% in Q4 (up from 40.7% in Q4 2023) indicates successful execution of their Cadre operating model.

With $124.9 million in cash and substantial credit facilities, Cadre has positioned itself as a consolidator in fragmented safety equipment markets. Their selective M&A approach focusing on high-margin businesses with defensible market positions and recurring revenues provides a solid blueprint for continued expansion, particularly in international markets where they currently have presence.

JACKSONVILLE, Fla.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Cadre Holdings, Inc.

Gross profit margin of 43.9% for the fourth quarter; gross profit margin of 41.1% for the year ended December 31, 2024.

Adjusted EBITDA of $38.5 million for the fourth quarter; Adjusted EBITDA of $104.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2024.
Adjusted EBITDA margin of 21.9% for the fourth quarter; Adjusted EBITDA margin of 18.5% for the year ended December 31, 2024.
Declared quarterly cash dividend of $0.095 per share in January 2025. On an annualized basis, this dividend represents an increase of $0.03 per share, or 8.6% per share, over the previous annualized dividend of $0.35 per share.

“2024 was another record year, as our teams continued to leverage the Cadre operating model and capitalize on positive demand trends for our best-in-class, mission-critical safety equipment,” said Warren Kanders, CEO and Chairman. “We delivered our full-year guidance of double-digit revenue and adjusted EBITDA growth, driven by high-level execution in Q4, which represented Cadre’s best quarter of financial results as a public company. We achieved significantly higher net sales and adjusted EBITDA, while expanding full year adjusted EBITDA margins 70 basis points year-over-year.”

Mr. Kanders added, “We’ve carried this momentum forward into 2025 and are pleased to have agreed to acquire multiple leading nuclear safety brands, as announced in January. The acquisition of the Engineering Division from Carr’s Group accomplishes multiple key objectives for Cadre, which includes adding scale to our nuclear vertical, growing our international footprint and expanding our nuclear TAM with entry into automation, robotics and nuclear medicine. We continue to evaluate a robust pipeline of additional M&A opportunities consistent with our highly selective key criteria focused on companies with strong margins, leading and defensible market positions, as well as recurring revenues and cash flows.”

Mr. Kanders concluded, “Cadre has established a track record of consistent and stable growth through cycles, and we continue to see a commitment globally to prioritizing public safety and ensuring those who protect and serve us are equipped with the most secure and reliable products. Moving forward, we believe Cadre is ideally positioned to further expand our leadership positions in safety markets, including the nuclear market, and build value for customers and shareholders. While there are a number of uncertainties in the current operating environment, we are confident in Cadre’s long-term outlook and remain focused on taking advantage of both organic and inorganic opportunities ahead.”

Fourth Quarter and Year-End 2024 Operating Results

For the quarter ended December 31, 2024, Cadre generated net sales of $176.0 million, as compared to $124.6 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2023, primarily as a result of recent acquisitions and strong shipments for Armor and Duty Gear.

For the year ended December 31, 2024, Cadre generated net sales of $567.6 million, as compared to $482.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2023, primarily as a result of recent acquisitions and higher demand for armor, duty gear products, and hard goods.

For the quarter ended December 31, 2024, Cadre generated gross profit of $77.2 million, as compared to $49.8 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2023. For the year ended December 31, 2024, Cadre generated gross profit of $233.5 million, as compared to $200.7 million for the prior year period.

Gross profit margin was 43.9% for the quarter ended December 31, 2024, as compared to 39.9% for the quarter ended December 31, 2023, mainly driven by volume leverage on higher shipments. Gross profit margin was 41.1% for the year ended December 31, 2024, as compared to 41.6% for the prior year period.

Net income was $13.0 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2024, as compared to net income of $9.6 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2023, primarily as a result of increased gross profit year over year.

Net income was $36.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2024, as compared to net income of $38.6 million for the prior year period, primarily as a result of an increase in selling, general and administrative expenses from acquisitions, acquisition related costs, higher interest expense and lower productivity, partially offset by favorable pricing and increased volume.

Cadre generated $38.5 million of Adjusted EBITDA for the quarter ended December 31, 2024, as compared to $20.7 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2023. Adjusted EBITDA margin was 21.9% for the quarter ended December 31, 2024, as compared to 16.6% for the prior year period.

Cadre generated $104.8 million of Adjusted EBITDA for the year ended December 31, 2024, as compared to $85.8 million for the prior period. Adjusted EBITDA margin was 18.5% for the year ended December 31, 2023, as compared to 17.8% for the prior year period.

Liquidity, Cash Flows and Capital Allocation

Cash and cash equivalents increased by $37.2 million from $87.7 million as of December 31, 2023 to $124.9 million as of December 31, 2024.
Total debt increased by $83.1 million from $140.1 million as of December 31, 2023 to $223.2 million as of December 31, 2024.
Net debt (total debt net of cash and cash equivalents) increased by $45.8 million from $52.4 million as of December 31, 2023 to $98.3 million as of December 31, 2024.
Capital expenditures totaled $1.4 million for the fourth quarter and $5.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2024, compared with $2.7 million for the fourth quarter and $7.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2023.

Expansion of Credit Facilities

On December 23, 2024 Cadre announced the closing of a new credit agreement that provides senior secured credit facilities of up to $590 million and matures in five years. The financing consists of a five-year undrawn revolving credit facility of $175 million, a five-year term loan facility of $225 million, as well as two delayed draw term loans of up to $115 million and $75 million, respectively (collectively, the “Credit Facilities”). The revolving credit facility and $225 million term loan are expected to be used for working capital and general corporate purposes, as well as to refinance existing outstanding debt. Subject to the conditions contained in the Credit Facilities, the $115 million delayed draw term loan is available to the Company for six months from the closing of the facilities to support current acquisition activity, while the $75 million delayed draw term facility is available to the Company for eighteen months from the closing to support future opportunities. The $75 million delayed draw term facility is also available for general corporate purposes. Combined with $124.9 million of cash and cash equivalents as of December 31, 2024, this provides Cadre with $489.9 million of capital to pursue its growth objectives.

Acquisition of Carr’s Engineering Division

On January 15, 2025, Cadre announced it has entered into a definitive agreement to acquire Carr's Engineering Limited (excluding Chirton Engineering) and Carr's Engineering (US), Inc. (together the “Engineering Division”), each a subsidiary of Carr’s Group plc (“Carr’s Group”), for an enterprise value of £75 million payable in cash at completion. The Engineering Division is comprised of industry-leading brands including Wälischmiller GmbH, CarrsMSM, Bendalls Engineering, NW Total Engineered Solutions, and NuVision Engineering, Inc. With sites in the United Kingdom, Germany and the United States, the Engineering Division designs, manufactures and services equipment, vessels, precision components and remote handling systems for nuclear end-markets. The brands within the Engineering Division are highly complementary to Cadre’s nuclear safety business and, upon closing, will both expand the Company’s presence in international markets and provide entry into new product categories within the nuclear market segment.

Increased Dividend

On January 21, 2025, the Company announced that its Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.095 per share, or $0.38 per share on an annualized basis, which represents an increase of $0.03 per share, or 8.6% per share, over the previous annualized dividend of $0.35 per share. Cadre's dividend payment was made on February 14, 2025 to shareholders of record as of the close of business on the record date of January 31, 2025. The declaration of any future dividend is subject to the discretion of the Company's Board of Directors.

2025 Outlook

For the full year 2025, Cadre expects to generate net sales in the range of $572 million to $601 million and Adjusted EBITDA in the range of $105 million and $115 million. We expect capital expenditures to be in the range of $7 million to $9 million. This guidance does not include any impact from the recently announced or implemented U.S. tariffs. Cadre has not provided net income guidance due to the inherent difficulty of forecasting certain types of expenses and gains, which affect net income but not Adjusted EBITDA. Therefore, we do not provide a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA guidance to net income guidance.

Use of Non-GAAP Measures

The Company reports its financial results in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). The press release contains the non-GAAP measures: (i) earnings before interest, taxes, other income or expense, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”), (ii) adjusted EBITDA and (iii) adjusted EBITDA margin. The Company believes the presentation of these non-GAAP measures provides useful information for the understanding of its ongoing operations and enables investors to focus on period- over-period operating performance, and thereby enhances the user’s overall understanding of the Company’s current financial performance relative to past performance and provides, along with the nearest GAAP measures, a baseline for modeling future earnings expectations. Non-GAAP measures are reconciled to comparable GAAP financial measures within this press release. We do not provide a reconciliation of the non-GAAP guidance measure Adjusted EBITDA for the fiscal year 2025 to net income for the fiscal year 2025, the most comparable GAAP financial measure, due to the inherent difficulty of forecasting certain types of expenses and gains, without unreasonable effort, which affect net income but not Adjusted EBITDA. The Company cautions that non-GAAP measures should be considered in addition to, but not as a substitute for, the Company’s reported GAAP results. Additionally, the Company notes that there can be no assurance that the above referenced non-GAAP financial measures are comparable to similarly titled financial measures used by other publicly traded companies.
