ATLANTA--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Mirion ("we" or the "company") (NYSE: MIR), a global provider of radiation detection, measurement, analysis and monitoring solutions to the medical, nuclear, defense, and research end markets, today announced results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2023.

During the first quarter, Mirion received a $150 million direct at-the-market investment and utilized $125 million for debt repayment. This helped the company bring net leverage down during the quarter. The company targets reducing its net leverage to 3.1x by year-end.

“The first quarter was a great start to 2023 for Mirion,” stated Thomas Logan, Mirion’s Chief Executive Officer. “Our team delivered strong top-line growth across both business segments, producing results that were above our expectations for the quarter. As we anticipated, adjusted EBITDA margins were impacted by short-term product and geographic mix dynamics, but we expect those factors to moderate over the course of the year. Our end markets remain healthy and we are confident heading into the remainder of 2023.”

“I am pleased with the results that Mirion was able to deliver in the first quarter,” added Larry Kingsley, Chairman of Mirion’s Board. “The team has posted a solid first step toward achieving the level of growth projected for 2023 and the year has kicked off according to plan. I am particularly encouraged by the level of sustained order growth we are seeing across our end markets and the business continues to maintain a robust backlog position to fuel future growth.”

Reaffirmed 2023 Outlook

“Today, we have reaffirmed our 2023 guidance on the back of a strong first quarter,” continued Mr. Logan. “Our end markets remain supportive of our growth expectations and our teams are focused on executing upon our expectations for the remainder of the year.”

Mirion is reaffirming its guidance for the fiscal year and 12-month period ending December 31, 2023:

• Reported revenue growth of 6% - 9%
• Organic revenue growth of 4% - 7%
• Adjusted EBITDA of $172 million - $182 million
• Adjusted EPS of $0.28 - $0.34
• Adjusted free cash flow of $58 million - $78 million

Inorganic revenue growth is expected to be approximately 1.5%, including benefits from the SIS acquisition, offset by the Biodex rehab divestiture, which closed early in the second quarter. Foreign exchange rates are expected to result in a positive 0.5% impact to revenue growth. The guidance for organic revenue growth excludes the impact of foreign exchange rates as well as mergers and acquisitions.

Other modeling and guidance assumptions include the following:

• Euro to U.S. Dollar foreign exchange conversion rate of 1.09
• Net interest expense of approximately $60 million (approximately $56 million of cash interest)
• Approximately 199 million shares of Class A common stock outstanding (excludes 7.8 million shares of Class B common stock, 27.2 million warrants, 18.8 million founder shares, subject to vesting, 2.3 million restricted stock units, 0.6 million performance stock units and a further 28.7 million shares reserved for future equity awards (subject to annual automatic increases))

The Company’s guidance contains forward-looking statements and actual results may differ materially as a result of known and unknown uncertainties and risks, including those set forth below under the heading “Forward-Looking Statements.” In addition, forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures are presented on a non-GAAP basis without reconciliations of such forward-looking non-GAAP measures due to the inherent difficulty in projecting and quantifying the various adjusting items necessary for such reconciliations, such as stock-based compensation expense, amortization and depreciation expense and purchase accounting adjustments, that have not yet occurred, are out of Mirion’s control, or cannot be reasonably predicted. Accordingly, reconciliations of our guidance for revenue, organic revenue, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EPS, adjusted free cash flow and net leverage are not available without unreasonable effort.

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In addition to our results determined in accordance with GAAP, we believe the following non-GAAP measures are useful in evaluating our operating performance. We use the following non-GAAP financial information to evaluate our ongoing operations and for internal planning and forecasting purposes. We believe that non-GAAP financial information, when taken collectively, may be helpful to investors because it provides consistency and comparability with past financial performance. However, non-GAAP financial information is presented for supplemental informational purposes only, has limitations as an analytical tool, and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for financial information presented in accordance with GAAP. Other companies, including companies in our industry, may calculate similarly titled non-GAAP measures differently or may use other measures to evaluate their performance, all of which could reduce the usefulness of our non-GAAP financial measures as tools for comparison.

Investors are encouraged to review the related GAAP financial measures and the reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures and not rely on any single financial measure to evaluate our business.

Organic Revenues is defined as Revenues excluding the impact of foreign exchange rates as well as mergers and acquisitions in the period.

Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income before interest expense, income tax expense, depreciation and amortization adjusted to remove the impact of foreign currency gains and losses, amortization of acquired intangible assets, the impact of purchase accounting on the recognition of deferred revenue, changes in the fair value of warrants, certain non-operating expenses (certain purchase accounting impacts related to revenues and inventory, restructuring and costs to achieve operational synergies, merger and acquisition expenses and IT project implementation expenses), stock-based compensation expense, debt extinguishment and income tax impacts of these adjustments.

Adjusted Net Income is defined as GAAP net income adjusted for foreign currency gains and losses, amortization of acquired intangible assets, the impact of purchase accounting on the recognition of deferred revenue, changes in the fair value of warrants, certain non-operating expenses (certain purchase accounting impacts related to revenues and inventory, restructuring and costs to achieve operational synergies, merger and acquisition expenses and IT project implementation expenses), stock-based compensation expense, debt extinguishment and income tax impacts of these adjustments.

Adjusted EPS is defined as adjusted net income divided by weighted average common shares outstanding — basic and diluted.

Adjusted Free Cash Flow is defined as free cash flow adjusted to include the impact of cash used to fund non-operating expenses. We believe that the inclusion of supplementary adjustments to free cash flow applied in presenting adjusted free cash flow is appropriate to provide additional information to investors about our cash flows that management utilizes on an ongoing basis to assess our ability to generate cash for use in acquisitions and other investing and financing activities.

Free Cash Flow is defined as U.S. GAAP net cash provided by operating activities adjusted to include the impact of purchases of property, plant, and equipment and purchases of badges.

Net Leverage is defined as Net Debt (debt minus cash and cash equivalents) divided by Adjusted EBITDA plus contributions to Adjusted EBITDA if acquisitions made during the applicable period had been made before the start of the applicable period.

Operating Metrics

Order Growth is defined as the amount of revenue earned in a given period and estimated to be earned in future periods from contracts entered into in a given period as compared with such amount for a prior period. Order growth was calculated excluding the impact of the Hanhikivi project termination in the second quarter of 2022. Foreign exchange rates are based on the applicable rates as reported for the time period.

The following tables presents reconciliations of certain non-GAAP financial measures for the applicable periods.
