Insights

Financial Analyst

The financial results released by Stoneridge, Inc. for Q1 2024 exhibit a sales growth to $239.2 million, which is a positive indicator of the company's revenue-generating capabilities. However, the reported operating income of $0.3 million, corresponding to a mere 0.1% of sales, is strikingly low, suggesting operational challenges or inefficiencies that require attention. Furthermore, the company has experienced incremental warranty-related expenses of approximately $2.0 million, signaling potential quality issues in their product line that have translated into financial loss. The loss per share (EPS) of $(0.22) is also a point of concern for shareholders, as it directly affects their returns. Despite these challenges, the company maintains its full-year guidance, which could indicate management's confidence in their strategy and operational improvements moving forward. Investors should watch for the company's continued ability to manage material costs and operational efficiency to meet projected margins and earnings.

Market Research Analyst

From a market perspective, Stoneridge's focus on electronics sales in the commercial vehicle end markets as the driver of top-line growth reflects alignment with industry trends towards advanced vehicle technologies. The planned program launches with OEMs Volvo and Peterbilt for their MirrorEye systems underscores the company's strategy to capitalize on innovative safety solutions in the automotive sector. This initiative, along with the announcement of additional launches in North America, could contribute to future sales expansion. However, the decrease in Control Devices sales and the hit to Stoneridge Brazil's sales highlight the need to diversify revenue streams and manage product life cycles effectively. The investor should be aware of these market dynamics when considering the company's potential for sustainable growth in an evolving automotive industry.

Debt and Equity Market Analyst

Stoneridge's reported net debt to trailing twelve-month EBITDA compliance leverage ratio of 2.86x represents improvement from the previous period and suggests that the company is making progress in debt management. The company's ability to improve inventory balances by $7.9 million in Q1 is a positive sign of working capital efficiency, which could enhance liquidity and financial flexibility. They expect a net debt to EBITDA ratio of 2.0x - 2.5x by year's end, implying a strategic focus towards reducing leverage. For investors, the management's commitment to achieving a lower debt ratio is reassuring, yet it is important to monitor if the forecasted improvements in gross margin and operating performance can be realized to support this objective.

Stoneridge, Inc. (NYSE: SRI) today announced financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2024, with sales of $239.2 million and loss per share of $(0.22).

For the first quarter of 2024, Stoneridge reported gross profit of $48.4 million (20.2% of sales), operating income of $0.3 million (0.1% of sales) and EBITDA of $6.6 million (2.8% of sales).

Jim Zizelman, president and chief executive officer, commented, "Our first quarter performance was driven by continued strong top-line growth in our Electronics segment and progress across each of our key company initiatives. Our efforts to reduce material costs contributed to a 170 basis point improvement in gross margin over the first quarter of last year. Similarly, we continued to streamline our operating structure and centralize key functions to improve our operating efficiency resulting in operating margin improvement of 160 basis points over the first quarter of last year. Despite the significant momentum we have in the fundamentals of the business, we must continue to focus on mitigating some of the historical quality issues that resulted in $2 million of incremental costs this quarter. Through recent actions taken to centralize and redesign our product line, program management and global engineering organizations, we are specifically focused on improving built-in-quality, material costs and manufacturing efficiency to drive profitability. There is no question we are seeing the positive impacts of these structural changes and expect the momentum from these changes to drive improved profitability as we continue to grow."

Zizelman continued, "While we continue to improve our existing programs, we remain focused on flawless execution of the program launches that will drive strong growth going-forward. Our next OEM MirrorEye programs launch with Volvo in Europe and with Peterbilt in North America later this year, and two additional programs in North America are expected to launch early next year. We will continue to work with all our OEM customers, their dealer networks and the fleets, to drive MirrorEye adoption. We are seeing good momentum across our MirrorEye end-markets and applications and expect continued growth as we launch new OEM programs and continue to expand our fleet activities with both new and existing customers."

Zizelman concluded, "Our robust backlog continues to provide a strong foundation for our strategy focused on drivetrain agnostic technologies that will allow us to continue to grow as market preferences and customer platforms continue to evolve. We continue to focus on gross margin expansion while we leverage our existing cost structure to expand operating margin as we grow."

First Quarter in Review

Electronics sales of $156.1 million increased by 11.1% relative to adjusted sales of the first quarter of 2023. This increase was primarily driven by higher sales in the European and North American commercial vehicle end markets. First quarter operating margin of 4.5% improved by 330 basis points relative to the adjusted operating margin of the first quarter of 2023, primarily due to contribution on revenue growth and lower direct material costs as a percentage of sales.

Control Devices sales of $78.0 million decreased by 10.0% relative to sales of the first quarter of 2023. This decrease was due to lower sales in the North American passenger vehicle end market primarily related to the expected wind-down of end-of-life programs and slower demand for electric vehicle platforms. This decline was slightly offset by higher sales in China. First quarter operating margin of 2.8% increased by 120 basis points relative to the adjusted operating margin of the first quarter of 2023, primarily due to higher gross margin as a result of lower direct material costs, partially offset by unfavorable fixed cost leverage due to lower sales.

Stoneridge Brazil sales of $12.2 million decreased by $2.0 million relative to sales in the first quarter of 2023. This decrease was primarily due to lower sales in local OEM products as a result of one-time revenue opportunities of approximately $2.1 million recognized in the first quarter of 2023 that were not expected to recur. First quarter operating margin of 1.7% decreased by approximately 770 basis points relative to the first quarter of 2023, primarily due to reduced fixed cost leverage on lower sales.

Cash and Debt Balances

As of March 31, 2024, Stoneridge had compliance net debt of $164.5 million resulting in a net debt to trailing twelve-month EBITDA compliance leverage ratio of 2.86x, an improvement of 0.27x versus December 31, 2023.

The Company continues to focus on both operating performance and working capital improvement to drive cash performance, particularly related to inventory reduction. During the first quarter, inventory balances improved by $7.9 million. The Company expects to continue to reduce inventory balances throughout the year. The Company expects a net debt to EBITDA ratio for compliance purposes of 2.0x - 2.5x by the end of 2024.

2024 Outlook

The Company is maintaining its previously provided full-year 2024 guidance ranges including sales guidance of $990 million to $1,010 million, gross margin guidance of 22.0% to 22.75%, operating margin guidance of 2.75% to 3.25%, earnings per share guidance of $0.30 to $0.40 and EBITDA guidance of $64 million to $70 million, or 6.5% to 6.9% of sales.

Matt Horvath, chief financial officer, concluded, "We are maintaining our expectations for approximately $1 billion of revenue, which outpaces our weighted-average OEM end markets by over eight percentage points. We expect that continued improvement in our material costs will offset the incremental warranty-related costs we incurred in the first quarter and are maintaining our full year gross margin expectations. Similarly, we expect slightly improved operating performance relative to our prior expectations to offset the non-operating foreign currency and equity interest expenses we incurred in the first quarter and as a result are maintaining our expectations for full-year EBITDA and EPS. Our mid-point EBITDA margin guidance of 6.7%, or $67 million of EBITDA, results in 170 basis point margin improvement and 39% growth in EBITDA over 2023. We will continue to focus on material cost improvement and operational execution to drive strong contribution margin and focus on inventory reduction to improve our cash position and reduce our leverage profile. Stoneridge remains well positioned to outpace our underlying end market growth and drive significant earnings expansion going forward."
