CHARLOTTE, N.C., Nov. 06, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- NN, Inc. (NASDAQ: NNBR), a global diversified industrial company that manufactures high-precision components and assemblies, today reported its financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2023.

Financial and Strategic Highlights

• Net sales of $124.4 million, down 2.2% versus prior year period;
• Operating loss of $2.7 million and adjusted EBITDA of $14.5 million;
• Free cash flow of $11.3 million, up significantly versus prior period with positive free cash flow generation of $17 million over the trailing year;
• Reduced leverage ratio to 3.37x, down sequentially from 3.87x, supported by improved adjusted EBITDA and cash flow performance;
• Key program wins including attractive awards in EV electric power steering markets;
• Tightened full-year forecast ranges for net sales and adjusted EBITDA while raising free cash flow forecast;
• Successfully supplemented the executive management team with new Chief Operating Officer and Chief Procurement Officer;
• Reentered medical market through creation of NN Medical, the Company’s new medical device division; and
• Launched multiple long-term strategic initiatives to drive enhanced cash flows and shareholder value, focused on growth and cost productivity improvement.
  

Harold Bevis, President and Chief Executive Officer, commented, “In our first quarter with the newly supplemented management team, we delivered improved operating results and made significant progress against many of our strategic transformation initiatives. We’ve been intently focused on fixing and/or exiting unprofitable business, diligently managing our working capital, and implementing rigorous cost productivity and margin expansion programs across the organization. The early stages of our strategy to increase organizational commitment around our transformation strategy can be clearly seen in our strong free cash flow performance this period. I’m encouraged by the early results of these initiatives and believe there is much more to accomplish.”

Bevis continued, “We’ve also made considerable progress against many of our commercial goals by leveraging existing customers and markets where we have strong reputations which is helping us win new business. Although we’re encouraged by our new business wins year-to-date and current partnerships, we’re particularly excited about our new market opportunities. Subsequent to quarter-end, we created a division focused on the medical device market, and we are very confident in our ability to leverage our existing footprint and technical market knowhow to immediately win new, profitable business. Along with medical, there are multiple organic entry opportunities such as electric shielding that further strengthen our confidence in our ability to achieve our commercial goals. We look forward to utilizing our unique capabilities and in-depth understanding of market value creation in precision machining and stampings and further applying them to newer markets and customers.”

Michael Felcher, Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, added, “We’re pleased with the margin expansion and growth showcased in the third quarter which supported expansion of both our adjusted EBITDA and operating income. Our cost reduction efforts and aggressive strategic actions to eradicate unprofitable parts of the business have already positively impacted our results, and we continue to expect roughly $10 million in adjusted EBITDA improvement once we’ve completed this work. We’re also encouraged by the free cash flow generation of our business which helped to reduce our leverage profile to 3.37x. While our demand outlook for the year remains the same, the recent traction we’ve gained on our initiatives aimed at cash flow generation, improving adjusted EBITDA results, and lowering our leverage are supportive to our improving forward expectations.”

Third Quarter GAAP Results

Net sales were $124.4 million, a decrease of 2.2% from the third quarter of 2022, primarily due to reduced volume, partially offset by higher customer pricing and favorable foreign exchange effects.

Loss from operations was $2.7 million compared to a loss from operations of $2.1 million in the third quarter of 2022. The increase in loss from operations was primarily driven by lower volumes and increased wages and stock compensation expense, partially offset by cost savings initiatives.

Income from operations for Power Solutions was $3.9 million compared to income from operations of $2.6 million for the same period in 2022. Loss from operations for Mobile Solutions was $1.3 million compared to loss from operations of $0.5 million for the same period in 2022.

Net loss was $5.1 million compared to net loss of $2.2 million for the same period in 2022. The increase in net loss is primarily due to reduced sales volume and unfavorable warrant revaluations.

Third Quarter Adjusted Results

Adjusted income from operations for the third quarter of 2023 was $3.7 million compared to adjusted income from operations of $2.5 million for the same period in 2022. Adjusted EBITDA was $14.5 million, or 11.6% of sales, compared to $11.8 million, or 9.3% of sales, for the same period in 2022. Adjusted net income was $0.1 million, or $0.01 per diluted share, compared to adjusted net income of $1.5 million, or $0.03 per diluted share, for the same period in 2022.

Free cash flow was a generation of cash of $11.3 million compared to a use of cash of $4.4 million for the same period in 2022.

Power Solutions

Net sales for the third quarter of 2023 were $45.5 million compared to $51.1 million in the third quarter of 2022, a decrease of 11.0% or $5.6 million. The decrease in sales was primarily due to lower volume, partially offset by higher pricing and favorable foreign exchange effects. Adjusted income from operations was $7.1 million compared to adjusted income from operations of $5.8 million in the third quarter of 2022. The increase in adjusted income from operations was primarily due to facility closure savings, partially offset by lower volumes.

Mobile Solutions

Net sales for the third quarter of 2023 were $79.0 million compared to $76.1 million in the third quarter of 2022, an increase of 3.7% or $2.8 million. The increase in sales was primarily due to higher customer pricing, partially offset by lower volume and unfavorable foreign exchange effects. Adjusted income from operations was $1.6 million compared to adjusted income from operations of $0.7 million in the third quarter of 2022. The increase in adjusted income from operations was primarily driven by a $1.1 million benefit from a customer settlement as well as reductions to indirect labor.

2023 Outlook

Based on financial results for thus far year to date, as well as expectations for the remainder of the year, the Company has narrowed its ranged outlook for revenues and Adjusted EBITDA and raised the range of free cash flow expectations for the full year. Full-year 2023 financial outlook is as follows:

• Revenue in the range of $487 million to $497 million;
• Adjusted EBITDA in the range of $40 million to $44 million; and
• Free cash flow in the range of $10 million to $14 million.
  

Michael Felcher, Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, commented, “We are tightening our sales and profitability guidance for the full-year 2023 to align with our year-to-date results and our expectations for consistent demand levels year-over-year. Despite broader macro headwinds, we are making great progress in improving our margins and cash generating capabilities and thus are raising our fiscal year outlook for free cash flow. Our transformation strategy is working, and our enhanced management team is well positioned to accelerate our plan and execute well within our targets for sales, adjusted EBITDA, and free cash flow.”

The Company discloses in this presentation the non-GAAP financial measures of adjusted income (loss) from operations, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income (loss), adjusted net income (loss) per diluted common share, and free cash flow. Each of these non-GAAP financial measures provides supplementary information about the impacts of acquisition, divestiture and integration related expenses, foreign-exchange impacts on inter-company loans, reorganizational and impairment charges. Over the past five years, we have completed several acquisitions, one of which was transformative for the Company, and sold two of our businesses. The costs we incurred in completing such acquisitions, including the amortization of intangibles and deferred financing costs, and these divestitures have been excluded from these measures because their size and inconsistent frequency are unrelated to our commercial performance during the period, and which we believe are not indicative of our ongoing operating costs. We exclude the impact of currency translation from these measures because foreign exchange rates are not under management’s control and are subject to volatility. Other non-operating charges are excluded as the charges are not indicative of our ongoing operating cost. We believe the presentation of adjusted income (loss) from operations, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income (loss), adjusted net income (loss) per diluted common share, and free cash flow provides useful information in assessing our underlying business trends and facilitates comparison of our long-term performance over given periods.

The non-GAAP financial measures provided herein may not provide information that is directly comparable to that provided by other companies in the Company's industry, as other companies may calculate such financial results differently.
