MILWAUKEE--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Enerpac Tool Group Corp. (NYSE: EPAC) (the “Company”) today announced results for its fiscal fourth quarter ended August 31, 2022.

“We exited fiscal 2022 with increased demand in both our product and service businesses, as well as solid core sales growth in two of our four regions,” said Paul Sternlieb, Enerpac Tool Group’s President & CEO. “We are pleased with our team’s performance in the quarter and the momentum that we are building, despite the continued difficult macroeconomic environment and ongoing supply chain challenges.”

Mr. Sternlieb continued, “During the fourth quarter, we delivered on our topline, adjusted EBITDA and cash flow initiatives across the Company, and we broke the typical fourth quarter seasonal sales trend, with sequential growth over the third quarter on a constant currency basis. At the same time, we continued to make important progress on our ASCEND transformation program, with an emphasis on delivering profitable growth as we move into fiscal 2023 and beyond. Our strong cash flow and adjusted EBITDA performance in the quarter allowed us to continue to deploy capital through share repurchase, consistent with our capital allocation strategy, and reduce our leverage ratio.”

• Consolidated net sales for the twelve months ended August 31, 2022 were $571.2 million, compared to $528.7 million in the comparable prior year period. Core sales increased 11% year over year, while the net impact of foreign currency reduced net sales 3%.

Net Sales	$139.7		$134.8		$527.3		$493.1

Adjusted Op Profit % (1)	22.6%		19.9%		16.4%		17.1%
(1) Excludes $2.2 million of restructuring charges and $0.8 million of ASCEND charges in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022 compared to $0.1 million of restructuring benefit in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2021. The twelve months ended August 31, 2022 excludes $5.9 million of restructuring charges, $1.1 million of impairment & divestiture charges, $0.5 million of leadership transition charges, $0.9 million of ASCEND charges and a gain on sale of a facility, net of transaction charges, of $0.6 million compared to $2.1 million of restructuring charges and $0.5 million of net impairment & divestiture charges in the prior year period.

• Fourth quarter fiscal 2022 net sales were $139.7 million, 4% higher than the prior fiscal year’s fourth quarter net sales. Core sales increased 10% year over year. The increase in core sales is attributable to the continued global market recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic, continued volume growth due to strong customer demand, and the impact of pricing actions taken to offset inflationary pressures.
• Adjusted operating profit margin increased year over year to 22.6%, primarily due to increased sales volume and savings from cost management and restructuring initiatives implemented in prior periods, despite increased material and freight costs, as well as operating inefficiencies driven by continued supply chain challenges.

Corporate Expenses and Income Taxes from Continuing Operations

• Corporate expenses were $15.9 million and $6.6 million for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022 and fiscal 2021, respectively.
• Adjusted corporate expenses⁽²⁾ of $6.2 million for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022 were $0.3 million lower than the comparable adjusted prior year period expense of $6.5 million, primarily due to restructuring savings and reduced salaries/wages slightly offset by increased incentive compensation expense.
• The fiscal 2022 fourth quarter adjusted effective income tax rate from continuing operations of approximately 17% was lower than the fourth quarter fiscal 2021 adjusted rate of approximately 36%.

(2) Excludes approximately $0.8 million of restructuring charges and $8.9 million of ASCEND charges in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022 compared to $0.1 million of leadership transition and board search charges in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2021.

Outlook

Mr. Sternlieb continued, “Our fiscal year 2023 outlook reflects cautious optimism that our momentum will continue while we navigate the uncertain global macroeconomic environment, including significant foreign currency headwinds. Through the execution of our growth strategy and our ASCEND transformation program, we remain confident that Enerpac Tool Group is well positioned to respond to these economic uncertainties and drive shareholder value.

“In that light, assuming no broad-based recessionary conditions and excluding the impact of any foreign currency changes, we have set our full year fiscal 2023 net sales guidance range to $565 to $585 million. In addition, we have set our full year fiscal 2023 adjusted EBITDA guidance range to $113 to $123 million, including an ASCEND EBITDA benefit of $12 to $18 million.”

Mr. Sternlieb concluded, “We look forward to hosting our Investor Day in New York City on November 16^th where we will be launching our new strategy, providing further details on ASCEND, and introducing our new management team. I want to thank our global team for their hard work and dedication throughout a challenging fiscal 2022.

Notes:
(1) EBITDA represents net earnings from continuing operations before financing costs, net, income tax (benefit) expense, and depreciation & amortization. EBITDA is not a calculation based upon GAAP. The amounts included in the EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA calculation, however, are derived from amounts included in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Earnings. EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as alternatives to net earnings, operating profit or operating cash flows. The Company has presented EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA because it regularly reviews these performance measures. In addition, EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA are used by many of our investors and lenders, and are presented as a convenience to them. The EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA measures presented may not always be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies due to differences in the components of the calculation.
(2) Caption updated from "Corporate development & board search fees" used during Fiscal 2021 and also updated to consolidate "Executive Transition and board search charges" and "Sr. Leadership transition charges" during the first part of Fiscal 2022 into one row. Costs included have not been altered.

Notes continued:
(3) Adjusted earnings from continuing operations and adjusted diluted earnings per share represent net earnings and diluted earnings per share per the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Earnings net of charges or credits for items to be highlighted for comparability purposes. These measures are not calculated based upon generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) and should not be considered as an alternative to net earnings or diluted earnings per share or as an indicator of the Company's operating performance. However, this presentation is important to investors for understanding the operating results of the current portfolio of Enerpac Tool Group companies.
(4) Free cash flow primarily represents the operating cash flow, proceeds from the sale of property, plant and equipment combined with capital expenditures.
For all reconciliations of GAAP measures to Non-GAAP measures, the summation of the individual components may not equal the total due to rounding. With respect to the earnings per share reconciliations the impact of share dilution on the calculation of the net earnings or loss per share and discontinued operations per share may result in the summation of these components not equaling the total earnings per share from continuing operations.

(5) Management does not provide guidance on GAAP financial measures as we are unable to predict and estimate with certainty items such as potential impairments, refinancing costs, business divestiture gains/losses, discrete tax adjustments, or other items impacting GAAP financial metrics. As a result, we have included above only those items about which we are aware and are reasonably likely to occur during the guidance period covered.
