Rhea-AI Summary

Stoneridge (NYSE: SRI) reported Q3 2024 financial results with sales of $213.8 million, gross profit of $44.5 million, and adjusted EBITDA of $9.2 million. The company reported a loss per share of $(0.26) and adjusted EPS of $(0.24).

Insights

Financial Analyst

The Q3 results and guidance update reveal significant challenges. $213.8M in quarterly sales with razor-thin $0.3M operating income and adjusted EPS of $(0.24) highlight operational pressures. The updated FY2024 guidance shows deteriorating conditions with revenue lowered to $895-905M and adjusted EBITDA margins of only 4.7%.

While cash management improved with $31.3M better year-over-year performance and $11.3M inventory reduction, the 3.6% end-market decline and weak margins are concerning. The leverage ratio of 2.79x, though compliant, leaves financial flexibility. The standardization of MirrorEye technology on major platforms provides future growth potential but isn't offsetting current market headwinds.

Market Research Analyst

The automotive supplier market faces significant headwinds across multiple segments. Stoneridge's Electronics segment saw a 4.7% sales decline while Control Devices dropped 17.5%, reflecting broader industry challenges particularly in EV programs. The standardization of MirrorEye across multiple OEM platforms (Daimler, DAF, Volvo) signals strong product-market fit, but the guidance suggests delayed revenue impact as fleets await factory installations rather than retrofits.

NOVI, Mich., Oct. 30, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Stoneridge, Inc. (NYSE: SRI) today announced financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2024, with sales of $213.8 million, gross profit of $44.5 million and adjusted gross profit of $44.6 million (20.9% of sales). Operating income was $0.3 million resulting in adjusted operating income of $0.7 million (0.3% of sales). Income tax expense was $3.4 million resulting in adjusted income tax expense of $3.5 million. Loss per share was $(0.26) and adjusted EPS was $(0.24). Adjusted EBITDA was $9.2 million (4.3% of sales). The exhibits attached hereto provide reconciliation detail on normalizing adjustments of non-GAAP financial measures used in this press release. 

Jim Zizelman, president and chief executive officer, commented, "During the third quarter, our focus remained on improving the fundamentals of our business. Our efforts to improve operational efficiency resulted in reduced quality-related costs while reductions to operating expenses helped to offset some of the significant market-related challenges we faced. That said, like many of our peers, third quarter performance was significantly impacted by continued pressure across all of our major end markets resulting in reduced customer production. We will continue to improve fundamental financial performance through operational excellence and a focus on controllable costs."

Zizelman continued, "While we continue to drive operational performance improvement, we remain focused on our key growth initiatives, including new business awards and the flawless execution of the program launches that will drive growth going-forward. We continue to build momentum with MirrorEye in both our OEM and fleet channels. Earlier this week, we announced MirrorEye will be available on Daimler Truck North America's new fifth generation Freightliner Cascadia truck, which begins series production in mid-2025. We also announced that MirrorEye will be launching with an additional European brand, as part of an extension of a previously launched global OEM MirrorEye program, in the fourth quarter of this year. MirrorEye will be offered as standard equipment on several of this brands' models as well as an option on their other truck models. Similarly, our other European OEM customers, DAF and Volvo, have now made their respective camera monitor systems standard on several key truck platforms. The standardization of MirrorEye with several OEM customers across several key truck platforms shows the strong momentum we are creating for the product. Additionally, we continue to expand our retrofit applications with new partnerships with DB Schenker in North America and VDL Bus and Coach in Europe. Finally, during the quarter, we continued to drive growth opportunities for Control Devices as well, with our first ever award related to our Leak Detection Module technology for an all-new hybrid vehicle with a Chinese OEM customer. This strategic technology is well-positioned for growth amid the global hybrid vehicle expansion and is also applicable to traditional powertrain vehicles to improve the effectiveness of their emissions systems."

Zizelman concluded, "While we expect continued challenges across our end markets for the remainder of the year and into 2025, we continue to focus on the variables that we can control as we respond efficiently and effectively to macroeconomic headwinds that are prevalent across our industry. We remain confident that our efforts to fundamentally improve business performance and our continued focus on key growth initiatives will drive long-term profitable growth for our shareholders."

Third Quarter in Review

Electronics sales of $135.7 million decreased by 4.7% relative to adjusted sales of the third quarter of 2023. This was primarily driven by lower customer production volumes in the European and North American commercial vehicle markets and lower sales in the European off-highway end market. This decline was partially mitigated by the ramp-up of recently launched programs, including MirrorEye and the Company's next generation tachograph. Third quarter adjusted operating margin of 2.8% declined by 330 basis points relative to the third quarter of 2023, primarily due to reduced leverage from lower sales as well as higher overhead and D&D costs, partially offset by lower direct material costs.

Control Devices sales of $74.3 million decreased by 17.5% relative to the third quarter of 2023. This decrease was primarily due to lower customer production volumes in the North American passenger vehicle end market, including reduced demand for electric vehicle programs, and the expected wind-down of end-of-life programs. Higher sales in the China passenger vehicle and North America commercial vehicle end markets were offset by lower sales in the China commercial vehicle end market. Third quarter adjusted operating margin of 3.1% decreased by 320 basis points relative to the third quarter of 2023, primarily due to reduced leverage on lower sales, slightly offset by lower D&D costs.

Stoneridge Brazil sales of $13.6 million decreased by $0.5 million relative to the third quarter of 2023. This decrease was primarily due to unfavorable foreign currency translation of $1.7 million as well as lower monitoring service fees, offset by higher OEM and aftermarket product sales. Third quarter operating income of $0.7 million decreased by approximately $0.1 million relative to the third quarter adjusted operating income of 2023, primarily due to the adverse impact of U.S. dollar denominated material purchases and unfavorable sales mix from lower monitoring service fees offset by lower SG&A spending.

Relative to the second quarter of 2024, Electronics sales decreased by 11.6%. This decrease was driven primarily by continued macroeconomic pressures impacting European and North American commercial vehicle production and reduced sales in the off-highway end market. Third quarter adjusted operating margin decreased by 490 basis points relative to the second quarter of 2024, primarily due to reduced leverage on lower sales, unfavorable sales mix and higher D&D costs due to lower customer reimbursements, partially offset by lower SG&A costs.

Relative to the second quarter of 2024, Control Devices sales decreased by 8.1%. This decrease was primarily driven by continued pressure and reduced demand in the North American passenger vehicle end market. Stronger sales in the China passenger vehicle end market were offset by lower sales in the China commercial vehicle end market versus the second quarter. Third quarter adjusted operating margin decreased by 150 basis points relative to the second quarter of 2024, primarily due to reduced leverage on lower sales slightly offset by lower material costs.

Relative to the second quarter of 2024, Stoneridge Brazil sales increased by $1.8 million, or 15.0%. This was primarily due to higher sales in the OEM end market and higher aftermarket sales, partially offset by the unfavorable foreign currency impact of $0.7 million. Third quarter operating income improved by $0.8 million relative to the second quarter of 2024, primarily due to fixed cost leverage on incremental sales partially offset by the unfavorable foreign currency impact of $0.4 million.

.Cash and Debt Balances

As of September 30, 2024, Stoneridge had cash and cash equivalents totaling $54.1 million. During the first nine months of 2024, the Company generated $13.3 million in cash driven by our continued focus on reducing net working capital, including an $11.3 million reduction in inventory balances. This represents an increase of $31.3 million in cash performance over the same period in 2023.  

For compliance purposes, adjusted net debt was $158.9 million while adjusted EBITDA for the trailing twelve months was $56.8 million, resulting in an adjusted net debt to trailing twelve-month EBITDA compliance leverage ratio of 2.79x.

The Company continues to focus on both operating performance and working capital improvement to drive cash performance, particularly related to inventory reduction. The Company expects to remain in compliance with all covenant requirements.

2024 Outlook

The Company is updating its previously provided full-year 2024 guidance ranges including sales guidance of $895 million to $905 million, adjusted gross margin guidance of approximately 21.5%, adjusted operating margin guidance of approximately 1.0%, adjusted loss per share guidance of $(0.35) to $(0.40) and adjusted EBITDA guidance of $42 million to $44 million, or approximately 4.7% of sales.

Matt Horvath, chief financial officer, commented, "We are updating our full-year 2024 revenue guidance to reflect industry-wide macroeconomic headwinds that are resulting in reduced production expectations for the majority of our customers across our end markets. Overall, our weighted average end markets are expected to decline by 3.6% relative to our previously provided guidance. Furthermore, we are expecting non-OEM and option-based products revenue to be aligned with the low-end of the previously provided range. We expect there could be some continued incremental headwinds in the off-highway end market and lower than expected MirrorEye aftermarket fleet and bus volumes despite the continuing expansion in fleet relationships. Many of these fleets are evaluating the technology prior to availability as a factory installation which we expect will increase the OEM volumes, as we have outlined with several of our OEM customers making the system standard equipment but may impact demand for higher volume retrofit applications."

Horvath continued, "Our updated revenue guidance results in a midpoint of $900 million for the year. Although we continue to expect improvement in operating performance, including improvements in material costs and quality-related costs, as well as continued focus on operating cost control, due primarily to the impact of our reduced revenue expectations, we are updating our full-year adjusted gross margin and adjusted operating margin expectations to approximately 21.5% and 1.0%, respectively. Similarly, we are updating our adjusted EBITDA guidance to $42 million to $44 million, or approximately 4.7% of sales. Finally, we are updating our full-year adjusted EPS guidance to $(0.35) to $(0.40). Our guidance reflects approximately $4 million to $4.5 million of total adjusted tax expense for the year based on our forecasted geographical mix of earnings."

Horvath, concluded, "By continuing to focus on improving the fundamentals of our business, controlling the variables within our control and responding efficiently and effectively to macroeconomic headwinds, we expect to drive performance improvement throughout the business. Additionally, we continue to 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."
