Insights

Manitowoc's Q4 2024 financial results reveal significant operational improvements despite challenging market conditions. The standout metric is the $110.8M operating cash flow, representing a dramatic $71.0M increase year-over-year, demonstrating enhanced working capital management and operational efficiency.

The company's strategic focus on aftermarket business is delivering tangible results, with non-new machine sales reaching $629.1M, marking a 67% increase since 2020. This transformation towards a more resilient revenue mix provides better margin stability and recurring revenue streams, important for cyclical industries like heavy equipment manufacturing.

However, the core business faces some headwinds, reflected in the 4.4% decline in Q4 adjusted EBITDA and significant drop in full-year adjusted net income. The recent acquisition of distribution rights in the Carolinas and Georgia represents a strategic expansion of the aftermarket footprint, which should support the company's margin enhancement initiatives.

The 2025 guidance range of $0.15 to $0.85 for adjusted EPS reflects continued market uncertainty. The wide range suggests multiple scenarios depending on market conditions, with the midpoint indicating potential improvement from 2024's $0.41 per share. The projected free cash flow of $55M to $85M demonstrates continued focus on cash generation, though at a lower level than Q4's exceptional performance.

The 8.4% increase in Q4 orders and stable $650.2M backlog provide some visibility for early 2025, but the flat revenue guidance suggests management expects market challenges to persist. The planned $47M capital expenditure, with nearly half allocated to the rental fleet, indicates strategic investment in revenue diversification while maintaining financial discipline.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Adjusted net income, Adjusted DEPS, EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted operating income, Adjusted ROIC, and free cash flows are financial measures that are not in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Manitowoc believes these non-GAAP financial measures provide important supplemental information to both management and investors regarding financial and business trends used in assessing its results. Manitowoc believes excluding specified items provides a more meaningful comparison to the corresponding reporting periods and internal budgets and forecasts, assists investors in performing analysis that is consistent with financial models developed by investors and research analysts, provides management with a more relevant measure of operating performance, and is more useful in assessing management performance.

Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted DEPS

The Company defines adjusted net income as net income (loss) plus the addback or subtraction of restructuring and certain other non-recurring items. Adjusted DEPS is defined as adjusted net income divided by diluted weighted average shares outstanding. Diluted weighted average common shares outstanding are adjusted for the effect of dilutive stock awards when there is net income on an adjusted basis, as applicable. The reconciliation of net income (loss) and diluted net income (loss) per share to adjusted net income and Adjusted DEPS for the three months ended and year ended December 31, 2024 and 2023 are summarized as follows. All dollar amounts are in millions, except per share data and share amounts.

Adjusted ROIC

The Company defines Adjusted ROIC as adjusted net operating profit after tax (“Adjusted NOPAT”) for the year ended divided by the five-quarter average of invested capital. Adjusted NOPAT is calculated by taking operating income plus the addback of amortization of intangible assets and the addback or subtraction of restructuring expenses, other non-recurring items - net, and provision for income taxes, which is determined using a 15% tax rate. Invested capital is defined as net total assets less cash and cash equivalents and income tax assets - net plus short-term and long-term debt. Income taxes are defined as income tax payables/receivables, net deferred tax assets/liabilities, and uncertain tax positions.

The Company’s Adjusted ROIC for the year ended December 31, 2024 was 6.0%. Below is the calculation of Adjusted ROIC for the year ended December 31, 2024.
