Positive
  • Strong profitability with 18.4% operating margin
  • Healthy operating cash flow of $157 million
  • Reduced net leverage to 2.2x
  • Maintained high adjusted EBITDA margin of 22.6%
Negative
  • Net sales declined 3.9% year-over-year
  • Organic sales decreased 4.1%
  • Commercial foodservice segment sales dropped 5.3%
  • Operating cash flows decreased from $219.2M to $156.7M year-over-year

Insights

The Q3 results reveal concerning trends in Middleby's core commercial foodservice segment. Net sales declined -3.9% to $943 million, with organic sales dropping -4.1%. The commercial foodservice segment saw a notable -5.3% organic decline, reflecting significant headwinds from reduced restaurant traffic and increased food costs.

Despite revenue challenges, profitability metrics remained relatively resilient. Operating income reached $173.4 million with an 18.4% margin, while adjusted EBITDA was $213 million with a 22.6% margin. The company's strong cash flow generation of $156.7 million and debt reduction to 2.2x leverage demonstrate solid financial management.

The outlook suggests continued near-term pressure but positions for a potential multi-year recovery starting in 2025. The company's focus on innovation and market capabilities could provide competitive advantages when industry conditions improve.

The restaurant industry downturn is significantly impacting Middleby's business trajectory. The combination of reduced customer traffic and rising food costs has led to delayed equipment investments and permanent restaurant closures, creating a challenging operating environment that could persist through 2024.

However, several positive indicators warrant attention: strong customer engagement levels, growing innovation pipeline and the strategic acquisition of Emery Thompson. The company's diversified portfolio across commercial, residential and food processing segments provides some buffer, with food processing showing modest 0.7% organic growth despite broader market challenges.

  • Net sales of $943 million
  • Diluted earnings per share of $2.11 and adjusted net earnings per share of $2.33
  • Operating income of $173 million and 18.4% of net sales
  • Adjusted EBITDA of $213 million and organic adjusted EBITDA margin of 22.6%
  • Operating cash flows of $157 million
  • Net leverage reduced to 2.2x
  • Completed the acquisition of Emery Thompson

ELGIN, Ill.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- The Middleby Corporation (NASDAQ: MIDD), a leading worldwide manufacturer of equipment for the commercial foodservice, food processing, and residential kitchen industries, today reported net earnings for the third quarter of 2024.

"Unfavorable macro-economic conditions continued in the third quarter and grew even more challenging in our commercial foodservice segment. Lower restaurant traffic and higher food costs in recent months have put pressure on the restaurant industry. This has resulted in a greater than expected delay in facility investments and in the permanent closure of locations. As we navigate the current environment and near-term revenue decline, we remain disciplined with strong levels of profitability and cash flow.

We have continued to resiliently execute on our strategic initiatives focused on the launch of industry leading product innovations and differentiated go-to market capabilities, which have us uniquely positioned and are confident will drive long-term profitable growth. The pipeline of opportunities with customers and new product innovations continues to build, while customer engagement remains at an all-time high. We anticipate the challenging current industry macro-conditions will improve in 2025 and will lead into a multi-year recovery favorably supporting growth at all three of our foodservice segments,” said Tim FitzGerald, CEO of The Middleby Corporation.

(1) Includes amortization of deferred financing costs and convertible notes issuance costs.

(2) Adjusted diluted weighted average number of shares was calculated based on excluding the dilutive effect of shares to be issued upon conversion of the notes to satisfy the amount in excess of the principal since the company's capped call offsets the dilutive impact of the shares underlying the convertible notes. The calculation of adjusted diluted earnings per share excludes the principal portion of the convertible notes as this will always be settled in cash.

USE OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

The company supplements its consolidated financial statements presented on a GAAP basis with this non-GAAP financial information to provide investors with greater insight, increase transparency and allow for a more comprehensive understanding of the information used by management in its financial and operational decision-making. The non-GAAP financial measures disclosed by the company should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP, and the financial results prepared in accordance with GAAP and reconciliations from these results should be carefully evaluated. In addition, the non-GAAP financial measures included in this press release do not have standard meanings and may vary from similarly titled non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies.

The company believes that organic net sales growth, non-GAAP adjusted segment EBITDA, adjusted net earnings and adjusted diluted per share measures are useful as supplements to its GAAP results of operations to evaluate certain aspects of its operations and financial performance, and its management team primarily focuses on non-GAAP items in evaluating performance for business planning purposes. The company also believes that these measures assist it with comparing its performance between various reporting periods on a consistent basis, as these measures remove from operating results the impact of items that, in its opinion, do not reflect its core operating performance including, for example, intangibles amortization expense, impairment charges, restructuring expenses, and other charges which management considers to be outside core operating results.

The company believes that free cash flow is an important measure of operating performance because it provides management and investors a measure of cash generated from operations that is available for mandatory payment obligations and investment opportunities, such as funding acquisitions, repaying debt and repurchasing our common stock.

The company believes that its presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures is useful because it provides investors and securities analysts with the same information that Middleby uses internally for purposes of assessing its core operating performance.
