Luxfer Holdings PLC (NYSE: LXFR), a global manufacturer of highly- engineered industrial materials, today announced financial results for the fourth quarter and full year 2020, ending December 31, 2020. The company also announced its intent to divest of non-strategic Aluminum product lines, including Superform, which will be treated as discontinued operations within financial results.

Fourth Quarter 2020 Results (all comparisons year-over-year unless otherwise noted; results exclude discontinued operations)

Consolidated net sales decreased 0.2% to $82.1 million from $82.3 million, including a favorable foreign currency benefit of $1.0 million, or 1.2%. The sales decrease was due to the negative impact of COVID-19 on industrial end markets, partially offset by growth in alternative fuel including CNG and Hydrogen.

GAAP net income increased to $6.6 million, or $0.24 per diluted share, compared to $1.6 million, or $0.06 per diluted share. Results included $1.5 million in restructuring and other charges, compared to restructuring and other charges of $1.4 million in the prior year period.

Adjusted net income increased 35% to $7.7 million from $5.7 million. Adjusted diluted earnings per share increased 35% to $0.27 from $0.20. Adjusted EBITDA of $13.8 million increased 21.1%. Adjusted EBITDA margin of 16.8% expanded 290 basis points

“We are proud of Luxfer’s strong fourth quarter results despite sales being negatively impacted by the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. I am grateful to all our employees who delivered strong cash and margin performance throughout the year, while continuing to operate safely. During the year, we made significant progress on our transformation plan, including achieving better-than-expected cost savings and the decision to divest non-strategic aluminum product lines. In addition, our Lean working capital initiatives delivered strong annual free cash flow of $41 million. Given the strength of our free cash flow and low debt levels, we will continue to strategically invest in future growth opportunities, while returning cash to shareholders in the form of dividends and share buy backs,” commented Luxfer’s Chief Executive Officer, Alok Maskara.

Full Year 2020 Results (all comparisons year-over-year unless otherwise noted; results exclude aluminum products discontinued operations)

Consolidated net sales decreased 13.0% to $324.8 million, including a 2.0% decrease due to the divestiture of the Czech recycling operation in the second quarter of 2019. The sales decline was broad-based and driven by the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, which was more pronounced in industrial end markets while transportation and defense end markets saw a relatively smaller decline.

GAAP net income of $20.8 million or $0.74 per diluted share, was up $12.1 million and $0.43 per diluted share, respectively. These results included $9.3 million in restructuring and other charges, compared to restructuring and other charges of $28.4 million in 2019.

Adjusted net income of $28.9 million decreased 29.3%. Adjusted diluted earnings per share of $1.03, decreased 30%. Adjusted EBITDA of $53.9 million decreased 19.7%. Adjusted EBITDA margin of 16.6% decreased 140 basis points.

Segment Results (all comparisons year-over-year unless otherwise noted; results exclude aluminum products discontinued operations)

Elektron Segment

Fourth Quarter 2020

• Net sales of $47.2 million increased 1.3% as foreign currency exchange benefited sales by 1.1%, or $0.5 million
• Adjusted EBITDA increased 24.7% to $9.1 million (19.3% of sales) primarily due to cost actions

Full Year 2020

• Net sales of $182.9 million decreased 16.8%, including a 3.4% decrease due to the divestiture of the Czech recycling operation; the remaining business was primarily affected by the COVID-19 pandemic impact, specifically in industrial and transportation end markets
• Adjusted EBITDA of $32.6 million decreased 27.2% as cost actions partially offset the impact of volume declines

Gas Cylinders Segment

Fourth Quarter 2020

• Net sales of $34.9 million decreased 2.2%; foreign currency exchange benefited sales by $0.5 million, or 1.4%
• Adjusted EBITDA of $4.7 million increased 14.6% as cost savings more than offset the impact of volume declines

Full Year 2020

• Net sales of $141.9 million decreased 7.6%, primarily due to a decline in industrial and transportation end markets
• Adjusted EBITDA of $21.3 million decreased 4.5%, as cost actions partially offset the impact of volume declines

Intent to Divest Certain Aluminum Products, Including Superform

During 2020, the Company made the decision to divest most aluminum product lines, including Superform, which totaled $53 million in revenue for the year. Based on the approval of Luxfer’s Board of Directors to divest these assets and the probability that such divestiture will be consummated, the associated financial results will be presented as discontinued operations in our fourth quarter and full year 2020 financial statements and prior periods will be restated for consistency.

Maskara remarked, “After a thoughtful review of our portfolio of businesses and the future trajectory of Luxfer, we conclude that it is in the best interest of our shareholders, employees and customers to divest these assets. This will enable us to focus our strategic efforts and capital deployment as we invest to grow the Company. The remaining portfolio has stronger margins and growth profile with a narrow focus on high performance Magnesium Alloys, Zirconium Catalysts and high-pressure Composite Cylinders.”

Capital Resources and Liquidity

Free cash flow was $41.3 million for the year, compared to an outflow of $8.1 million in the prior year. Full year cash usage included approximately $4 million for restructuring as part of the Company’s transformation plan, compared to approximately $25 million in the prior year. During the quarter, the Company paid $3.4 million in ordinary dividends, or $0.125 per share. Given strong cash flow, the Company restored normal level of funding for growth and productivity although certain projects remain delayed due to COVID-19.

At quarter end, the Company had $1.5 million in cash and approximately $146 million in an undrawn revolving credit facility. Net debt totaled $51.9 million, resulting in a net debt to EBITDA ratio of 1.0x. During the fourth quarter, the Company used cash on the balance sheet to prepay $25 million of private placement debt due in September 2021.

2021 Guidance

“While significant market uncertainty remains, we have gained more visibility into customer demand patterns and are providing broad financial guidance for 2021. We expect Adjusted EPS to be in the range of $1.05 - $1.25. We have a strong balance sheet and undrawn credit facility, which provides financial flexibility for us continue investing for growth and explore portfolio opportunities to build an even stronger company,” added Maskara.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Luxfer Holdings PLC prepares its financial statements using U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP). When a company discloses material information containing non-GAAP financial measures, SEC regulations require that the disclosure include a presentation of the most directly comparable GAAP measure and a reconciliation of the GAAP and non-GAAP financial measures. Management’s inclusion of non-GAAP financial measures in this release is intended to supplement, not replace, the presentation of the financial results in accordance with GAAP. Luxfer management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures, when considered together with the GAAP financial measures, provide information that is useful to investors in understanding period- over-period operating results separate and apart from items that may, or could, have a disproportionately positive or negative impact on results in any period. Management also believes that these non-GAAP financial measures enhance the ability of investors to analyze the Company’s business trends and understand the Company’s performance. In addition, management may utilize non-GAAP financial measures as a guide in the Company’s forecasting, budgeting and long-term planning process. Non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures presented in accordance with GAAP.

Forward-Looking Statements

Examples of such forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to: (i) statements regarding the Company’s results of operations and financial condition; (ii) statements of plans, objectives or goals of the Company or its management, including those related to financing, products or services; (iii) statements of future economic performance; and (iv) statements of assumptions underlying such statements. Words such as “believes,” “anticipates,” “expects,” “intends,” “forecasts,” and “plans,” and similar expressions, are intended to identify forward-looking statements but are not the exclusive means of identifying such statements. By their very nature, forward-looking statements involve inherent risks and uncertainties, both general and specific, and risks exist that the predictions, forecasts, projections and other forward-looking statements will not be achieved. The Company cautions that several important factors could cause actual results to differ materially from the plans, objectives, expectations, estimates and intentions expressed in such forward-looking statements. These factors include, but are not limited to: (i) lower than expected future sales; (ii) increasing competitive industry pressures; (iii) general economic conditions or conditions affecting demand for the products and services it offers, both domestically and internationally, including as a result of post-Brexit regulation, being less favorable than expected; (iv) worldwide economic and business conditions and conditions in the industries in which it operates; (v) fluctuations in the cost of raw materials, utilities and other inputs; (vi) currency fluctuations and hedging risks; (vii) its ability to protect its intellectual property; (viii) the significant amount of indebtedness it has incurred and may incur and the obligations to service such indebtedness and to comply with the covenants contained therein; and (ix) risks related to the impact of the global COVID-19 pandemic, such as the scope and duration of the outbreak, government actions and restrictive measures implemented in response, supply chain disruptions and other impacts to the business, and the Company’s ability to execute business continuity plans, as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. The Company cautions that the foregoing list of important factors is not exhaustive. These factors are more fully discussed in the sections entitled “Forward-Looking Statements” and “Risk Factors” in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, which was filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on March 10, 2020.
