Insights

Loar Holdings' Q2 2024 results show impressive growth, with net sales up 31.1% to $97.0 million and net income surging to $7.6 million. The company's Adjusted EBITDA increased by 26.3% to $35.0 million, demonstrating strong operational efficiency. However, the Adjusted EBITDA margin slightly decreased to 36.1% from 37.5% in the prior year, mainly due to lower-margin defense products and acquisition-related impacts.

The upward revision in full-year guidance is particularly noteworthy. Loar now expects net sales between $374 million and $378 million, with Adjusted EBITDA between $134 million and $136 million. This positive outlook, coupled with strong growth across commercial, business jet and defense sectors, indicates a robust market position and potential for continued expansion.

Loar's performance reflects the broader recovery and growth trends in the aerospace sector. The exceptional commercial aftermarket growth mentioned is a key indicator of increasing air travel and fleet utilization. This trend typically leads to higher demand for replacement parts and maintenance services, benefiting companies like Loar.

The planned acquisition of Applied Avionics is strategically sound, potentially enhancing Loar's product portfolio and market reach. The focus on niche capabilities and high aftermarket content aligns well with industry demands for specialized, high-value solutions. The revised market assumptions, projecting mid double-digit growth across various aviation segments, suggest a bullish outlook for the aerospace industry as a whole, which could drive further opportunities for Loar.

WHITE PLAINS, NY / ACCESSWIRE / August 13, 2024 / Loar Holdings Inc. (NYSE:LOAR) (the "Company," "Loar," "we," "us" and "our"), reported record results for the second quarter of 2024.

Second Quarter 2024

  • Net sales of $97.0 million, up 31.1% versus the prior year's quarter.

  • Net income for Q2 2024 was $7.6 million, up $7.0 million as compared to the prior year's quarter.

  • Earnings per share of $0.09.

  • Adjusted EBITDA of $35.0 million, up 26.3% over the prior year's quarter.

  • Net income margin in the quarter improved to 7.9% from the prior year's quarter net income margin of 0.8%.

  • Adjusted EBITDA Margin in the quarter was 36.1% compared to 37.5% in the prior year's quarter.

  • Adjusted Earnings Per Share of $0.13.

"In the second quarter we continued our record setting pace in net sales and Adjusted EBITDA," stated Dirkson Charles, Loar CEO and Executive Co-Chairman of the Board of Directors. "Additionally, in the quarter we saw the impact of de-stocking give way to exceptional commercial aftermarket growth over last year.

We are also excited for the future addition of Applied Avionics to the Loar Family. With its niche capabilities, proprietary product offering, and high aftermarket content, Applied Avionics fits exceptionally well within our strategic approach to providing customers with a comprehensive set of solutions."

Loar reported net sales for the quarter of $97.0 million, an increase of $23.0 million or 31.1% over the prior year. Organically(1), net sales increased 17.0% or $12.6 million, to $86.6 million.

Net income for the quarter increased $7.0 million to $7.6 million from a net income of $0.6 million in the comparable quarter a year ago. The increase in net income for the quarter was primarily driven by an increase in operating income and a decrease in interest expense.

Adjusted EBITDA for the quarter was $35.0 million, an increase of 26.3% or $7.3 million over the second quarter of 2023. Adjusted EBITDA Margin, which is Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of net sales, was 36.1%, compared to 37.5% in the second quarter of the prior year. Adjusted EBITDA Margin was impacted by increased sales of lower margin defense products, the continued dilutive impact of an acquisition completed in the second half of 2023, and infrastructure costs related to being a public company.

Year-to-Date

Net sales for the first six months ended June 30, 2024, were $188.9 million, an increase of $40.6 million or 27.4% over the comparable period a year ago. Organically(1), net sales increased 14.1% or $20.8 million, to $169.0 million.

Net income year-to-date increased $16.8 million to $9.9 million from a net loss of $6.9 million in the comparable period a year ago.

Adjusted EBITDA for the first half of 2024 was $68.1 million, an increase of 24.7% or $13.5 million over the comparable period a year ago. Adjusted EBITDA Margin was 36.0%, compared to 36.8% in the comparable period a year ago. Adjusted EBITDA Margin was impacted by increased sales from lower margin defense products, the continued dilutive impact of an acquisition completed in the second half of 2023, and infrastructure costs related to being a public company.

Please see the attached Table 4 for a reconciliation of net income (loss) to EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin for the periods discussed in this press release.

(1) Net organic sales represent net sales from our existing businesses for comparable periods and exclude net sales from acquisitions. We include net sales from new acquisitions in net organic sales from the 13th month after the acquisition on a comparative basis with the prior period.

Full Year 2024 Outlook - Revised Upward

"Given the strong performance of the business in Q2, we are revising our guidance upward for the full year 2024. As we look to the end of the year we continue to expect strong demand drivers across the end-markets in which we participate," stated Mr. Charles.

  • Net sales - between $374 million and $378 million, up from $370 million to $374 million

  • Net income - between $28.4 million and $29.6 million, up from $25.7 million to $27.1 million

  • Adjusted EBITDA - between $134 million and $136 million, up from $132 million to $134 million

  • Net income margin - approximately 8%, up from 7%

  • Adjusted Earnings Per Share - between $0.44 and $0.46, up from $0.41 to $0.43

  • Adjusted EBITDA Margin - approximately 36%

  • Interest expense - approximately $42 million

  • Market Assumptions - Full year outlook is based on the following assumptions:

    • Commercial, Business Jet, and General Aviation OEM growth of mid double-digits, up from low double-digits

    • Commercial, Business Jet, and General Aviation aftermarket growth of mid double-digits, up from low double-digits

    • Defense growth of mid double-digits, up from low double-digits

Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Earnings Per Share and Adjusted EBITDA Margin are non-GAAP financial measures provided in this "Full Year 2024 Outlook - Revised Upward" section on a forward-looking basis. The Company does not provide a reconciliation of such forward-looking measures to the most directly comparable financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP because to do so would be potentially misleading and not practical given the difficulty of projecting event-driven transactional and other non-core operating items in any future period. The magnitude of these items, however, may be significant.

Non-GAAP Supplemental Information

We present in this press release certain financial information based on our EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, and Adjusted Earnings Per Share. References to "EBITDA" mean earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, references to "Adjusted EBITDA" mean EBITDA plus, as applicable for each relevant period, certain adjustments as set forth in the reconciliations of net income (loss) to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, and references to "Adjusted EBITDA Margin" refer to Adjusted EBITDA divided by net sales. References to "Adjusted Earnings Per Share" mean net income plus certain adjustments as set forth in the reconciliations below to derive Adjusted EBITDA from EBITDA, less the tax effect of these adjustments. EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, and Adjusted Earnings Per Share are not measurements of financial performance under U.S. GAAP. We present EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, and Adjusted Earnings Per Share because we believe they are useful indicators for evaluating operating performance. In addition, our management uses Adjusted EBITDA to review and assess the performance of the management team in connection with employee incentive programs and to prepare its annual budget and financial projections. Moreover, our management uses Adjusted EBITDA of target companies to evaluate acquisitions..

Although we use EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin and Adjusted Earnings Per Share as measures to assess the performance of our business and for the other purposes set forth above, the use of non-GAAP financial measures as analytical tools has limitations, and you should not consider any of them in isolation, or as a substitute for analysis of our results of operations as reported in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Some of these limitations are:

  • EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, and Adjusted EBITDA Margin do not reflect the significant interest expense, or the cash requirements necessary to service interest payments on our indebtedness.

  • Although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized will often have to be replaced in the future, and the cash requirements for such replacements are not reflected in EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, and Adjusted EBITDA Margin.

  • EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, and Adjusted Earnings Per Share exclude the cash expense we have incurred to integrate acquired businesses into our operations, which is a necessary element of certain of our acquisitions.

  • The omission of the substantial amortization expense associated with our intangible assets further limits the usefulness of EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, and Adjusted EBITDA Margin; and

  • EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, and Adjusted EBITDA Margin do not include the payment of taxes, which is a necessary element of our operations.

Because of these limitations, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, and Adjusted Earnings Per Share should not be considered as measures of cash available to us to invest in the growth of our business. Management compensates for these limitations by not viewing EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, and Adjusted Earnings Per Share in isolation and specifically by using other U.S. GAAP measures, such as net sales and operating profit, to measure our operating performance. EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, and Adjusted Earnings Per Share are not measurements of financial performance under U.S. GAAP, and they should not be considered as alternatives to net income (loss) or cash flow from operations determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Our calculations of EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, and Adjusted Earnings Per Share may not be comparable to the calculations of similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

Future Looking Statements

This press release includes express or implied forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements include all statements that are not historical facts including those that reflect our current views with respect to, among other things, our operations and financial performance. The words "anticipate," "assume," "believe," "continue," "could," "estimate," "expect," "intend," "may," "plan," "potential," "predict," "project," "future," "will," "seek," "foreseeable," the negative version of these words or similar terms and phrases may identify forward-looking statements in this press release, but the absence of these words does not mean that a statement is not forward-looking.

The forward-looking statements contained in this press release, including, but not limited to, the statements under the heading "Full Year 2024 Outlook - Revised Upward," are based on management's current expectations and are not guarantees of future performance. Our expectations and beliefs are expressed in management's good faith, and we believe there is a reasonable basis for them, however, the forward-looking statements are subject to various known and unknown risks, uncertainties, assumptions, or changes in circumstances that are difficult to predict or quantify. Actual results may differ materially from these expectations due to changes in global, regional, or local economic, business, competitive, market, regulatory, and other factors, many of which are beyond our control. We believe that these factors include but are not limited to the following: the almost exclusive focus of our business on the aerospace and defense industry; our heavy reliance on certain customers for a significant portion of our sales; the fact that we have in the past consummated acquisitions and our intention to continue to pursue acquisitions, and that our business may be adversely affected if we cannot consummate acquisitions on satisfactory terms, or if we cannot effectively integrate acquired operations; and the other risks and uncertainties described under "Risk Factors" of the Company's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2024 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") on May 14, 2024, as well as the Company's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that will be filed following this earnings release, and other periodic reports filed by the Company from time to time with the SEC.

These factors should not be construed as exhaustive and should be read in conjunction with the other cautionary statements that are included in this press release. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should any of our assumptions prove incorrect, our actual results may vary in material respects from those projected in the forward-looking statements. Any forward-looking statement made by us in this press release speaks only as of the date of this press release and is expressly qualified in its entirety by the cautionary statements included in this press release. Factors or events that could cause our actual results to differ may emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for us to predict all of them. We may not actually achieve the plans, intentions or expectations disclosed in our forward-looking statements and you should not place undue reliance on our forward-looking statements. Our forward-looking statements do not reflect the potential impact of any future acquisitions, mergers, dispositions, joint ventures, investments, or other strategic transactions we may make. We undertake no obligation to publicly update or review any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future developments or otherwise, except as may be required by any applicable law.
