Third Quarter 2024 Financial Highlights

Net sales for the third quarter 2024 increased to $748 million compared to $744 million in the prior year period, driven primarily by improved pricing.

Conversion revenue for the third quarter 2024 was $362 million, reflecting a 1% increase compared to the prior year period.

  • Net sales for aerospace/high strength applications were $213 million, and conversion revenue was $128 million, a 5% decrease driven primarily by a 7% decrease in shipments over the prior year quarter, reflecting the broader supply chain challenges in the market.
  • Net sales for packaging applications were $320 million, and conversion revenue was $128 million, reflecting a 9% increase over the prior year quarter due mainly to improved product mix and pricing, partially offset by a 2% decrease in shipments as the Company continued to stabilize production levels following the second quarter outage and destocking period earlier in the year. Underlying demand continued to strengthen during the quarter.
  • Net sales for general engineering applications were $151 million, and conversion revenue was $76 million, reflecting a modest year-over-year increase on a 5% increase in shipments as pricing remained relatively stable despite uneven demand and import pressures.
  • Net sales for automotive extrusions were $62 million, and conversion revenue was $29 million, reflecting a 3% increase driven by improved pricing and product mix.

Reported net income for the third quarter 2024 was $12 million, or $0.74 income per diluted share, compared to net income and income per diluted share of $5 million and $0.34, respectively, in the prior year period. Excluding the impact of a pre-tax, non-run-rate charge of $4 million and a non-operating, non-run-rate gain of $9 million, adjusted net income was $8 million for the third quarter 2024, compared to adjusted net income of $7 million in the prior year period. Adjusted net income per diluted share was $0.51 for the third quarter 2024, compared to adjusted net income per diluted share of $0.46 for the third quarter 2023.

Adjusted EBITDA of $50 million in the third quarter 2024 increased $2 million compared to the prior year period. Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of conversion revenue was 13.9% in the third quarter 2024 compared to 13.3% in the prior year period. The increase in adjusted EBITDA and margin for the third quarter 2024 was driven primarily by an increase in conversion revenue, partially offset by an increase in energy costs and a higher GAAP LIFO charge.

Cash Flow and Liquidity

Adjusted EBITDA of $166 million reported in the first nine months of 2024 and cash on hand funded $47 million of working capital, $125 million of capital investments, $31 million of interest payments and $38 million of cash returned to stockholders through quarterly dividends.

As of September 30, 2024, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $46 million and borrowing availability under the Company's revolving credit facility of $549 million, providing total liquidity of $595 million. There were no outstanding borrowings under the revolving credit facility as of September 30, 2024.

On October 15, 2024, the Company announced the declaration of a quarterly cash dividend of $0.77 per share, which will be paid on November 15, 2024 to stockholders of record as of the close of business on October 25, 2024.

2024 Outlook

The Company expects demand to be consistent with its previous expectations for the balance of 2024. In aerospace/high strength applications, the Company remains cautious on its near-term outlook due to the timing of certain customer commercial and labor negotiations which may have a short-term impact on demand and shipments. In the packaging end market, industry momentum and performance improvements at the Company’s Warrick facility are expected to continue as it nears the completion of its fourth coating line investment, which will drive margin improvement starting in 2025. In general engineering, destocking within the Company’s long products has concluded with shipment levels now in better alignment with end market demand. In automotive extrusions, the Company is maintaining a positive outlook as production for light and heavy truck and sport utility vehicle platforms has outpaced broader automotive production rates.

Accordingly, for the full year 2024, the Company continues to expect overall conversion revenue to remain stable with growth up to 1% compared to 2023. Adjusted EBITDA margin, less the full year impact from GAAP LIFO charges, is expected to improve 50 to 100 basis points compared to 2023, as it continues to implement cost reduction measures in its operations, increase manufacturing efficiencies and execute its strategic growth initiatives.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This earnings release contains certain non-GAAP financial measures. A “non-GAAP financial measure” is defined as a numerical measure of a company’s financial performance that excludes or includes amounts so as to be different than the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP in the statements of income, balance sheets, or statements of cash flow of the Company. Pursuant to the requirements of Regulation G, the Company has provided a reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable financial measure in the accompanying tables.

The non-GAAP financial measures used within this earnings release are conversion revenue, adjusted operating income, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income, and adjusted earnings per diluted share which exclude non-run-rate items and ratios related thereto. As more fully described in these reports, “non-run-rate” items are items that, while they may occur from period to period, are particularly material to results, impact costs primarily as a result of external market factors and may not occur in future periods if the same level of underlying performance were to occur. These measures are presented because management uses this information to monitor and evaluate financial results and trends and believes this information to also be useful for investors. Reconciliations of certain forward looking non-GAAP financial measures to comparable GAAP measures are not provided because certain items required for such reconciliations are outside of the Company's control and/or cannot be reasonably predicted or provided without unreasonable effort.
