Operating Highlights
- Q2 2024 Sales increased
$20.0 million (9 percent) to$249.1 million compared to$229.1 million in Q2 2023. Q2 organic sales increased$17.8 million (8 percent) and the MPE acquisition contributed$2.2 million (1 percent) of revenue in the quarter. - Q2 2024 GAAP EPS increased 30 percent to
$0.90 per share compared to$0.69 per share in Q2 2023. Q2 2024 Adjusted EPS increased 24 percent to$0.94 per share compared to$0.76 per share in Q2 2023. - Q2 2024 Entered Orders decreased
$12.5 million (5 percent) compared to the prior year period to$239.1 million (book-to-bill of 0.96x), resulting in ending backlog of$838 million . - Net cash provided by operating activities was
$19 million YTD, an increase of$25 million compared to the prior year period, as cash flow was positively impacted by lower accounts receivable balances and higher earnings. - Net debt (total borrowings less cash on hand) was
$132 million , resulting in a 0.86x leverage ratio and$553 million in liquidity as of March 31, 2024.
Bryan Sayler, Chief Executive Officer and President, commented, “Q2 was a solid quarter highlighted by both top and bottom-line growth. Revenue grew 9 percent as we continue to see favorable dynamics in our key aerospace, Navy and utility end markets. The sales performance translated to the bottom line very well as Adjusted EPS increased 24 percent compared to the prior year quarter.”
Segment Performance
Aerospace & Defense (A&D)
- Sales increased
$15.7 million (16 percent) to$114.7 million in Q2 2024 from$99.0 million in Q2 2023. Sales growth was driven by strength across Navy, commercial aerospace, and defense aerospace programs. - Q2 2024 EBIT increased
$4.6 million to$23.4 million from$18.8 million in Q2 2023. Adjusted EBIT increased$4.0 million in Q2 2024 to$23.6 million (20.6 percent margin) from$19.6 million (19.8 percent margin) in Q2 2023. Margin improvement was driven by leverage on revenue growth and price increases, partially offset by inflationary pressures and mix. - Entered Orders increased
$4 million (4 percent) to$116 million in Q2 2024 compared to$112 million in Q2 2023. The increase in orders was primarily driven by strength in OEM and aftermarket orders for both commercial and defense aerospace. The orders in the quarter resulted in a segment book-to-bill of 1.01x and ending backlog of$562 million .
Utility Solutions Group (USG)
- Sales increased
$8.1 million (10 percent) to$87.3 million in Q2 2024 from$79.2 million in Q2 2023. Doble’s sales increased by$6.3 million (10 percent) driven by a strong quarter for services and cybersecurity/compliance (DUCe) solutions. NRG sales increased$1.8 million (13 percent) driven by higher demand for solar products. - EBIT increased
$3.5 million (25 percent) in Q2 2024 to$17.6 million (20.1 percent margin) from$14.1 million (17.8 percent margin) in Q2 2023. There were no adjustments in either period. Margin improvement was driven by mix from increased service business, leverage on revenue growth, and price increases, partially offset by inflationary pressures. - Entered Orders decreased
$6 million (7 percent) to$79 million in Q2 2024. Orders were down slightly at Doble and continued to moderate at NRG. NRG’S orders were extremely strong in FY’23 driven by a unique surge related to large orders at extended lead-times as customers managed supply chain concerns and order activity related to Inflation Reduction Act spending. We expect orders for the renewables business to rebound as the market digests last year’s elevated activity level and new projects are defined and implemented. The segment book-to-bill was 0.91x in the quarter, resulting in ending backlog of$119 million .
RF Test & Measurement (Test)
- Sales decreased
$3.9 million (8 percent) to$47.1 million in Q2 2024 from$51.0 million in Q2 2023. Organic sales decreased$6.1 million primarily related to lower wireless, filters and acoustic volume, partially offset by$2.2 million of revenue related to the MPE acquisition which was completed in Q1 2024. In line with our prior communication, our Test segment’s revenue continued to be somewhat soft in Q2. While sales were down compared to the prior year, they increased 16 percent sequentially. - EBIT decreased
$1.7 million in Q2 2024 to$5.5 million from$7.2 million in Q2 2023. Adjusted EBIT decreased$1.5 million in Q2 2024 to$5.7 million (12.2 percent margin) from$7.2 million (14.2 percent margin) in Q2 2023. Margin was impacted by lower volume and inflationary pressures, largely mitigated by price increases and cost reduction actions. - Entered Orders decreased
$11 million (21 percent) to$44 million in Q2 2024. The decrease was primarily related to lower wireless demand and delays on a few large projects, partially offset by higher OTC filter, MPE, and services orders. The segment book-to-bill was 0.93x in the quarter, resulting in ending backlog of$156 million .

Forward-Looking Statements
Statements in this press release regarding Management’s intentions, expectations and guidance for fiscal 2024, including restructuring and cost reduction efforts, sales, orders, revenues, margin, earnings, Adjusted EPS, and any other statements which are not strictly historical, are “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the safe harbor provisions of the U.S. securities laws.
Investors are cautioned that such statements are only predictions and speak only as of the date of this release, and the Company undertakes no duty to update them except as may be required by applicable laws or regulations. The Company’s actual results in the future may differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements due to risks and uncertainties that exist in the Company’s operations and business environment including but not limited to those described in Item 1A, “Risk Factors”, of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2023 and the following: the impacts of climate change and related regulation of greenhouse gases; the impacts of labor disputes, civil disorder, wars, elections, political changes, tariffs and trade disputes, terrorist activities, cyberattacks or natural disasters on the Company’s operations and those of the Company’s customers and suppliers; disruptions in manufacturing or delivery arrangements due to shortages or unavailability of materials or components or supply chain disruptions; inability to access work sites; the timing and content of future contract awards or customer orders; the timely appropriation, allocation and availability of Government funds; the termination for convenience of Government and other customer contracts or orders; weakening of economic conditions in served markets; the success of the Company’s competitors; changes in customer demands or customer insolvencies; competition; intellectual property rights; technical difficulties or data breaches; the availability of selected acquisitions; delivery delays or defaults by customers; performance issues with key customers, suppliers and subcontractors; material changes in the costs and availability of certain raw materials; material changes in the cost of credit; changes in laws and regulations including but not limited to changes in accounting standards and taxation; changes in interest, inflation and employment rates; costs relating to environmental matters arising from current or former facilities; uncertainty regarding the ultimate resolution of current disputes, claims, litigation or arbitration; and the integration and performance of recently acquired businesses.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The financial measures EBIT, Adjusted EBIT, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, and Adjusted EPS are presented in this press release. The Company defines “EBIT” as earnings before interest and taxes, “EBITDA” as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, “Adjusted EBIT” and “Adjusted EBITDA” as excluding the net impact of the items described in the attached Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures, and “Adjusted EPS” as GAAP earnings per share excluding the net impact of the items described and reconciled in the attached Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures.
EBIT, Adjusted EBIT, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, and Adjusted EPS are not recognized in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). However, Management believes EBIT, Adjusted EBIT, EBITDA, and Adjusted EBITDA are useful in assessing the operational profitability of the Company’s business segments because they exclude interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization, which are generally accounted for across the entire Company on a consolidated basis. EBIT is also one of the measures used by Management in determining resource allocations within the Company as well as incentive compensation. The presentation of EBIT, Adjusted EBIT, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, and Adjusted EPS provides important supplemental information to investors by facilitating comparisons with other companies, many of which use similar non-GAAP financial measures to supplement their GAAP results. The use of non-GAAP financial measures is not intended to replace any measures of performance determined in accordance with GAAP.
