  • Strong 2025 outlook with projected sales of $470-480 million

  • 2024 net income margin decreased to 5% from 8%

Insights

The Q3 results demonstrate robust financial performance with $103.5M in net sales (25% YoY growth) and significant margin expansion. Net income margin improved to 8.4% from 3.4%, while Adjusted EBITDA margin reached 36.8%. The organic growth of 16.5% is particularly impressive.

The 2024 guidance revision shows mixed signals - while revenue and EBITDA projections are raised, net income is lowered due to increased interest expenses from the Applied Avionics acquisition. The $12M jump in interest expense to $54M significantly impacts bottom-line profitability.

The 2025 outlook projects continued strong growth with revenues expected to reach $470-480M and improved profitability metrics, though higher interest expenses of $60M will remain a headwind. The robust backlog and growth across all segments support these projections.

The strong performance across commercial aviation, business jets and defense segments indicates a broad-based recovery in aerospace markets. The upward revision of commercial and general aviation OEM growth to high double-digits from mid double-digits suggests accelerating market momentum. The defense segment's projected high double-digit growth through 2025 points to sustained military spending and program wins.

The Applied Avionics acquisition strengthens Loar's aerospace electronics portfolio and market position. The robust aftermarket growth in commercial and business aviation indicates healthy fleet utilization and maintenance cycles. These trends, combined with the strong backlog, provide good visibility into 2025 performance.

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

Third Quarter 2024

  • Net sales of $103.5 million, up 25.0% compared to the prior year's quarter.

  • Net income for Q3 2024 was $8.7 million, up $5.8 million compared to the prior year's quarter.

  • Diluted earnings per share of $0.09.

  • Adjusted EBITDA of $38.1 million, up 31.8% compared to the prior year's quarter.

  • Net income margin for the quarter improved to 8.4% from the prior year's quarter of 3.4%.

  • Adjusted EBITDA Margin for the quarter was 36.8% compared to 34.9% for the prior year's quarter.

  • Adjusted Earnings Per Share of $0.15.

"Our third quarter results showcased our continued execution across all four of our strategic value drivers," stated Dirkson Charles, Loar CEO and Executive Co-Chairman of the Board of Directors. "We again achieved record net sales and Adjusted EBITDA, driven by strong demand in both our commercial and defense end-markets."

Loar reported net sales for the quarter of $103.5 million, an increase of $20.7 million or 25.0% over the prior year's quarter. Organically(1), net sales increased 16.5% or $13.7 million, to $96.5 million.

Net income for the quarter increased $5.8 million to $8.7 million from a net income of $2.9 million for 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 $38.1 million, an increase of 31.8% or $9.2 million compared to the prior year's quarter. Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of net sales was 36.8%, compared to 34.9% in the third quarter of the prior year. The increase in Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of net sales is primarily attributed to the execution of our strategic value drivers and operating leverage from higher sales levels.

Year-to-Date

Net sales for the first nine months ended September 30, 2024, were $292.4 million, an increase of $61.3 million or 26.5% over the comparable period of the prior year. Organically(1), net sales increased 14.9% or $34.5 million, to $265.6 million.

Net income year-to-date increased $22.6 million to $18.5 million from a net loss of $4.0 million for the comparable period a year ago.

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.

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.

"As a result of the successful closure of the acquisition of Applied Avionics and our strong business performance, we are revising our full year 2024 guidance," stated Glenn D'Alessandro, Loar Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer.

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

Full Year 2025 Outlook

"As we near the end of the year, the strength of our backlog gives us the visibility needed to look ahead to 2025. We believe our 2025 guidance outlines the strong demand we see across all the end-markets in which we participate," stated Mr. Charles.

  • Net sales - between $470 million and $480 million

Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Earnings Per Share and Adjusted EBITDA Margin are non-GAAP financial measures provided in these "Full Year 2024 Outlook - Revised Upward" and the "Full Year 2025 Outlook" sections 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, and Adjusted EBITDA Margin 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, and Adjusted EBITDA Margin 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, and Adjusted EBITDA Margin 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, and Adjusted EBITDA Margin 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, and Adjusted EBITDA Margin 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, and Adjusted EBITDA Margin 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, and Adjusted EBITDA Margin 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 headings "Full Year 2024 Outlook - Revised Upward" and "Full Year 2025 Outlook," 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 June 30, 2024 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") on August 13, 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.

  1. The tax adjustment represents the tax effect of the adjustments at the applicable effective tax rate. To determine the applicable effective tax rate, refinancing costs, other income, transaction expenses, stock-based compensation, and acquisition and facility integration costs are excluded from adjusted net income and therefore we have excluded the impact those items have on the effective tax rate.___
