Insights

The Q2 FY2025 results show mixed performance with notable strengths in key areas. Net sales increased by 3.2% to $397.9 million, driven by strong 12.5% growth in Aerospace/Defense segment. The gross margin improved to 43.7% from 43.1% year-over-year, demonstrating operational efficiency.

The backlog growth to $864.0 million from $762.4 million year-over-year indicates healthy future demand. The mandatory conversion of Series A preferred stock will result in annual cash savings of $23.0 million, improving free cash flow. However, increased SG&A expenses as a percentage of sales (17.5% vs 15.7%) and slightly lower operating income warrant attention.

The Q3 FY2025 outlook projects 4.3% to 7.0% revenue growth, suggesting continued momentum despite industry headwinds.

The aerospace segment's performance is particularly impressive, showing resilience despite the commercial aerospace OEM strike. The 12.5% growth in A&D sales demonstrates RBC's strong market position and ability to diversify its customer base effectively.

The robust backlog growth of 13.3% year-over-year suggests sustained demand in the aerospace sector, likely driven by commercial aviation recovery and defense spending. The company's ability to mitigate strike-related headwinds through other customer demand shows operational agility and strong industry relationships.

“RBC delivered another quarter of strong operational performance with total A&D sales up 12.5% year over year and Industrial sales down only 1.4% year over year,” said Dr. Michael J. Hartnett, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “On the A&D side, demand for our capacity remains robust and I am proud to say that the RBC team was able to meaningfully mitigate headwinds from a commercial aerospace OEM strike with strong demand from other customers, and we expect to continue to do so in the third quarter. On the Industrial side, we are confident that our results continued to outperform peers and broader industry trends, and that the segment can return to growth this year.”

Preferred Stock Conversion in Fiscal 2025

The Company’s Series A mandatory convertible preferred stock mandatorily converted to common stock on October 15, 2024, at which point the Company paid the final quarterly 5.0% dividend on the preferred stock, which was approximately $5.7 million. Not paying preferred stock dividends in the future will lead to $23.0 million of annual cash savings in future periods.

The October 15, 2024 conversion will result in $1.0 million being deducted from the numerator and approximately 1.8 million shares being added to the denominator for the calculation of diluted and adjusted diluted EPS for the third quarter of fiscal 2025.

Outlook for the Third Quarter Fiscal 2025

The Company expects net sales to be approximately $390.0 million to $400.0 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2025, compared to $373.9 million last year, a growth rate of 4.3% to 7.0%. Gross margin is expected to be in the range of 42.50% to 43.50% and SG&A as a percentage of net sales is expected to be in the range of 17.00% to 17.50%.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In addition to disclosing results of operations that are determined in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), this press release also discloses non-GAAP results of operations that exclude certain items. These non-GAAP measures adjust for items that management believes are unusual, as well as other non-cash items including but not limited to depreciation, amortization, and equity-based incentive compensation. Management believes that the presentation of these non-GAAP measures provides useful information to investors regarding the Company’s results of operations as these non-GAAP measures allow investors to better evaluate ongoing business performance. Investors should consider non-GAAP measures in addition to, not as a substitute for, financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. A reconciliation of the non-GAAP measures disclosed in this press release with the most comparable GAAP measures are included in the financial table attached to this press release.

Free Cash Flow Conversion
Free cash flow conversion measures our ability to convert operating profits into free cash flow and is calculated as free cash flow (cash provided by operating activities less capital expenditures) divided by net income.

Adjusted Gross Margin and Adjusted Operating Income
Adjusted gross margin excludes the impact of restructuring costs associated with the closing of a plant. Adjusted operating income excludes acquisition expenses (including the impact of acquisition-related fair value adjustments in connection with purchase), restructuring and other similar charges, and other non-operational, non-cash or non-recurring losses. We believe that adjusted operating income is useful in assessing our financial performance by excluding items that are not indicative of our core operating performance or that may obscure trends useful in evaluating our continuing results of operations.

Adjusted Net Income Attributable to Common Stockholders and Adjusted Earnings Per Share Attributable to Common Stockholders
Adjusted net income attributable to common stockholders and adjusted earnings per share attributable to common stockholders (calculated on a diluted basis) exclude non-cash expenses for amortization related to acquired intangible assets, stock-based compensation, amortization of deferred finance fees, acquisition expenses (including the impact of acquisition-related fair value adjustments in connection with purchase), restructuring and other similar charges, gains or losses on divestitures, discontinued operations, gains or losses on extinguishment of debt, and other non-operational, non-cash or non-recurring losses, net of their income tax impact. We believe that adjusted net income and adjusted earnings per share are useful in assessing our financial performance by excluding items that are not indicative of our core operating performance or that may obscure trends useful in evaluating our continuing results of operations.

Adjusted EBITDA
We use the term “Adjusted EBITDA” to describe net income adjusted for the items summarized in the “Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP Financial Measures” table below. Adjusted EBITDA is intended to show our unleveraged, pre-tax operating results and therefore reflects our financial performance based on operational factors, excluding non-operational, non-cash or non-recurring losses or gains. In view of our debt level, Adjusted EBITDA aids our investors in understanding our compliance with our debt covenants. Management and various investors use the ratio of total debt less cash to Adjusted EBITDA, or “net debt leverage,” as a measure of our financial strength and ability to incur incremental indebtedness when making investment decisions and evaluating us against peers. Lastly, management and various investors use the ratio of the change in Adjusted EBITDA divided by the change in net sales (referred to as “incremental margin” in the case of an increase in net sales or “decremental margin” in the case of a decrease in net sales) as an additional measure of our financial performance and some investors utilize it when making investment decisions and evaluating us against peers.

Adjusted EBITDA is not a presentation made in accordance with GAAP, and our definition of Adjusted EBITDA may vary from the definition used by others in our industry. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to net income, income from operations, or any other performance measures derived in accordance with GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA has important limitations as an analytical tool, and you should not consider it in isolation, or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. For example, Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect (a) our capital expenditures, future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments; (b) changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs; (c) the significant interest expenses, or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments, on our debt; (d) tax payments that represent a reduction in cash available to us; (e) any cash requirements for the assets being depreciated and amortized that may have to be replaced in the future; or (f) the impact of earnings or charges resulting from matters that we and the lenders under our credit agreement may not consider indicative of our ongoing operations. In particular, our definition of Adjusted EBITDA adds back certain non-cash, non-operating or non-recurring charges that are deducted in calculating net income, even though these are expenses that may recur or vary greatly, are difficult to predict, and can represent the effect of long-term strategies as opposed to short-term results. In addition, certain of these expenses can represent the reduction of cash that could be used for other corporate purposes. Further, although not included in the calculation of Adjusted EBITDA below, the measure may at times (i) include estimated cost savings and operating synergies related to operational changes ranging from acquisitions to dispositions to restructurings and/or (ii) exclude one-time transition expenditures that we anticipate we will need to incur to realize cost savings before such savings have occurred.
