Core Molding Technologies Reports Full Year and Fourth Quarter 2024 Results

Rhea-AI Summary

Core Molding Technologies (NYSE American: CMT) reported its fiscal year 2024 results, showing a revenue decline but maintained margin stability. Net sales decreased 15.5% to $302.4 million from $357.7 million in the prior year, primarily due to lower demand across all significant markets.

Key financial metrics include:

• Gross margin of 17.6% ($53.3 million)
• Operating income of $16.7 million (5.5% of net sales)
• Net income of $13.3 million ($1.51 per diluted share)
• Record operational cash flow of $35.2 million
• Total liquidity of $91.8 million at year-end

The company secured $45 million in new revenue wins for 2024 and maintains a sales opportunity pipeline of $275 million. For 2025, Core Molding expects flat sales due to the phase-out of approximately $30 million Volvo programs, offset by higher tooling revenues and new program revenues.

Insights

Financial Analyst

Core Molding's Q4 and full-year 2024 results reveal a mixed financial picture with significant top-line pressure but resilient operational execution. Despite full-year revenue declining 15.5% to $302.4 million across all major markets, the company demonstrated remarkable margin stability, maintaining a 17.6% gross margin (down just 0.4% from 2023) through disciplined cost management and operational efficiencies.

The company's cash flow performance stands out as particularly impressive, with record operating cash flow of $35.2 million and free cash flow of $23.6 million. This demonstrates Core's ability to optimize working capital even amid challenging market conditions. Their balance sheet remains exceptionally strong with $91.8 million in total liquidity and a debt-to-adjusted EBITDA ratio of just 0.64x.

Q4 results reflected the broader annual trend with revenue down 15.3% to $62.5 million, though gross margin improved year-over-year to 15.8%. The quarter's breakeven performance ($39,000 net loss) indicates continued margin pressure as fixed cost deleveraging impacts profitability.

Looking ahead, management's guidance for flat 2025 revenue deserves attention - they're offsetting the phase-out of $30 million in Volvo programs with new business wins, suggesting underlying growth of around 10% when excluding this transition. The $45 million in new revenue wins from 2024 and $275 million sales pipeline provide reasonable support for their growth strategy, though execution will be critical.

Manufacturing Industry Expert

Core Molding's ability to maintain margin stability despite a 15.5% revenue decline demonstrates impressive operational discipline in a challenging manufacturing environment. Their gross margin of 17.6% - nearly flat year-over-year despite lost economies of scale - indicates successful implementation of their efficiency initiatives and cost control measures.

The revenue decline across all major markets suggests broader sectoral challenges rather than company-specific issues. Particularly noteworthy is the weakness in medium/heavy-duty truck and powersports segments, consistent with the cyclical nature of these industries. The anticipated truck cycle upturn in H2 2025 aligns with industry projections driven by the 2027 regulatory changes, which typically accelerate purchases before implementation.

Core's strategic pivot toward business diversification is prudent given their current market concentration. Their expansion into construction, industrial, energy and medical markets represents a sound approach to reducing cyclical exposure. The $2.5 million investment in capacity and new programs reflects disciplined capital allocation - maintaining competitiveness while not overextending during a downturn.

Management's three-pillar growth strategy shows awareness of their competitive position: leveraging existing blue-chip customer relationships for wallet share growth is typically more efficient than pure new customer acquisition. Their planned trade show presence and on-site customer engagement tactics align with successful approaches in engineered materials. The M&A component appears targeted at complementary processes or geographical expansion rather than simple scale plays, suggesting strategic rather than merely financial motivations.

Record Operational Cash Flow and Margin Stability Driven by Strategic Initiatives

• Net sales of $302.4 million, down 15.5% from $357.7 million in the prior year; and product sales of $291.1 million, down 16.2% from the prior year. The decrease in sales is primarily the result of lower demand from customers in all of the Company's significant markets.

David Duvall, the Company’s President and Chief Executive Officer, said, “Fiscal 2024 was another successful year for the Company in improving our business model and a testament to our work over the last three years to improve and stabilize margins, even with lower sales.   As with all of Core’s successful transformations or Must Win Battles in the last several years, we first optimize the execution process to meet our future vision.   I am pleased with our team's successful initiatives to improve operational efficiencies, reduce costs, and increase product line profitability in our plants.   This resulted in better stability in our margins and record operational cash flow for Core Molding in 2024 of $35 million.  

“With $45 million of new revenue wins in 2024, we plan to continue ramping our “Invest For Growth” strategy in 2025 as we continue to add resources to our sales & marketing function, now led by our CCO Alex Bantz. We focused on the execution processes with our sales function in 2024 and now we are investing in initiatives to leverage the execution processes into generating sales. Bottom line is that we need to spend more time working directly with our large customers at their locations, helping to solve their problems, and much more time presenting and displaying our capabilities at trade shows. Our three fundamental pillars that support Core’s Must Win Battle this year include 1) Grow Wallet Share by leveraging our relationships with many trusted blue chip customers, 2) Business Diversification and expansion into promising end markets supported by large addressable markets, including Constructions, Industrial, Energy, and Medical where we have seen early successes in 2024, and 3) M&A expansion through one or more strategic acquisitions to drive new sales channels where we have the processes to cross sell, a new geographic footprint advantage, or a process that is complementary to our current processes that grows our wallet share potential.   Our growing sales opportunity pipeline is currently $275 million.”      

John Zimmer, the Company’s EVP and Chief Financial Officer, commented, “The fiscal 2024 demand environment stayed under pressure most of the year and we quickly adjusted costs to match our revenue projections. As we signaled early in 2024, sales were down 15.5%, and we ended the year with net sales of $302.4 million, primarily based on macroeconomic challenges. Our ongoing operational improvements and cost reductions resulted in full year gross margins of 17.6%, even with the loss of fixed cost leverage on lower sales. By maintaining gross margins within our long-term range of 17% to 19% and controlling our sales, general and administrative costs, we were able to generate strong free cash flows of $23.6 million.   

“We are excited about our sales opportunities in 2025. Most of our 2024 new wins will positively impact revenues in 2025, with full production cycles expected in 2026. We also project the truck cycle upturn starting in the second half of 2025, which continues throughout 2026 due to the new regulation changes in 2027. Despite areas of sales growth in 2025, we expect the full year sales to be flat based on the phase-out of approximately $30 million of Volvo programs, offset by higher tooling revenues and new program revenues resulting from new business wins in 2024. Without this Volvo transition, we would have anticipated Core’s sales up about 10% for the year. This demonstrates the early success of our Invest For Growth strategy, which we kicked off in 2024.”

2024 Capital Expenditures

The Company’s capital expenditures for 2024 were $11.5 million, including $2.5 million of capacity and new program investments. The Company plans for 2025 capital expenditures of approximately $10 to $12 million to meet current demand and allow for expansion.

Financial Position at December 31, 2024

The Company’s total liquidity at the end of 2024 was $91.8 million, with $41.8 million in cash, $25.0 million of undrawn capacity under the Company’s revolving credit facility and $25.0 million of undrawn capacity under the Company's capex credit facility. The Company’s term debt was $21.5 million at December 31, 2024. The Debt to Trailing Twelve Months Adjusted EBITDA¹ was less than one times Adjusted EBITDA¹ at the end of the fiscal year.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This press release contains financial information determined by methods other than in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). Core Molding management uses non-GAAP measures in its analysis of the Company's performance. Investors are encouraged to review the reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures to the comparable GAAP results available in the accompanying tables.

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Adjusted EBITDA represents net income before, as applicable from time to time, (i) interest expense, net, (ii) provision (benefit) for income taxes, (iii) depreciation and amortization of long-lived assets, (iv) share based compensation expense, (v) plant closure costs, and (vi) nonrecurring legal settlement costs and associated legal expenses unrelated to the Company's core operations. Free Cash Flow represents net cash (used in) provided by operating activities less purchase of property, plant and equipment and net working capital. Return on capital employed (ROCE) represents earnings before (i) interest expense, net and (ii) provision (benefit) for income taxes divided by (i) stockholders' equity and (ii) current and long-term debt. ROCE excluding cash represents ROCE less ending cash balance. These measures have limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative to performance measure derived in accordance with GAAP as an indicator of our operating performance. We present Adjusted EBITDA, Free Cash Flow, Debt to Trailing Twelve Months Adjusted EBITDA and ROCE because management uses these measures as key performance indicators, and we believe that securities analysts, investors and others use these measures to evaluate companies in our industry. Our calculation of these measures may not be comparable to similarly named measures reported by other companies. The following tables present reconciliations of net income to Adjusted EBITDA, Cash Flow from Operating Activities to Free Cash Flow and Net Income per Share to Adjusted Net Income per Share, the most directly comparable GAAP measures, and ROCE, for the periods presented:
