Positive

• Net sales increased by 17% to $1,397 million.
• Income from continuing operations rose by 40% to $229 million.
• Earnings per share surged 70% to $3.33.
• EBITDA as defined reached $699 million, up 24%.
• Raised fiscal 2023 guidance for net sales to $6,070-$6,240 million.

Negative

• Higher effective tax rate and increased interest expense partially offset income growth.

CLEVELAND, Feb. 7, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- TransDigm Group Incorporated (NYSE: TDG), a leading global designer, producer and supplier of highly engineered aircraft components, today reported results for the first quarter ended December 31, 2022.

First quarter highlights include:

• Net sales of $1,397 million, up 17% from $1,194 million in the prior year's quarter;
• Income from continuing operations of $229 million, up 40% from the prior year's quarter;
• Earnings per share from continuing operations of $3.33, up 70% from the prior year's quarter;
• EBITDA As Defined of $699 million, up 24% from $565 million in the prior year's quarter;
• EBITDA As Defined margin of 50.0%;
• Adjusted earnings per share of $4.58, up 53% from $3.00 in the prior year's quarter; and
• Upward revision to fiscal 2023 financial guidance.

Quarter-to-Date Results

Net sales for the quarter increased 17.0%, or $203 million, to $1,397 million from $1,194 million in the comparable quarter a year ago. Organic sales growth as a percentage of net sales was 15.2%.

Income from continuing operations for the quarter increased $66 million, or 40.5%, to $229 million from $163 million in the comparable quarter a year ago. The increase in income from continuing operations primarily reflects the increase in net sales described above and favorable sales mix. The increase was partially offset by a higher effective tax rate and higher interest expense.

GAAP earnings per share were reduced in the first quarter of fiscal 2023 and 2022 by $0.67 per share and  $0.77 per share as a result of dividend equivalent payments made during each quarter. As a reminder, GAAP earnings per share are reduced when TransDigm makes dividend equivalent payments pursuant to the Company's stock option plans. These dividend equivalent payments are made during the Company's first fiscal quarter each year and also upon payment of any special dividends.

Adjusted net income for the quarter increased 47.5% to $261 million, or $4.58 per share, from $177 million, or $3.00 per share, in the comparable quarter a year ago.

EBITDA for the quarter increased 24.5% to $650 million from $522 million for the comparable quarter a year ago. EBITDA As Defined for the quarter increased 23.7% to $699 million compared with $565 million in the comparable quarter a year ago. EBITDA As Defined as a percentage of net sales for the quarter was 50.0% compared with 47.3% in the comparable quarter a year ago.

During the quarter, TransDigm successfully completed a refinancing and repaid in full the approximately $1,725 million of Tranche G term loans maturing August 22, 2024, and replaced such loans with approximately $1,725 million of Tranche H term loans maturing February 22, 2027. The applicable interest rate for the Tranche H term loans is Term Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR") plus 3.25%.

"I am very pleased with our first quarter operating results and strong start to the fiscal year," stated Kevin Stein, TransDigm Group's President and Chief Executive Officer. "Total revenue ran ahead of our expectations and bookings outpaced revenues in all three of our major market channels - commercial OEM, commercial aftermarket and defense. Our diligent focus on our operating strategy and the continued recovery of our commercial aftermarket revenues drove further progression in our EBITDA as Defined margin, which improved to 50.0% for the quarter, up approximately 270 basis points from the comparable prior year period. 

Additionally, trends in the commercial aerospace market continue to be favorable including international air traffic improving and China re-opening its air travel with the lifting of its pandemic restrictions. We are encouraged by these trends, among other factors, and look forward to the remainder of fiscal 2023."

Please see the attached tables for a reconciliation of income from continuing operations to EBITDA, EBITDA As Defined, and adjusted net income; a reconciliation of net cash provided by operating activities to EBITDA and EBITDA As Defined, and a reconciliation of earnings per share to adjusted earnings per share for the periods discussed in this press release.

Fiscal 2023 Outlook

Mr. Stein stated, "We are raising our full year guidance primarily to reflect our strong first quarter results and current expectations for the remainder of the fiscal year. As our fiscal 2023 progresses, should the favorable trends in the commercial aerospace market recovery continue, including the expansion of flight activity in China, we could see further upward revision to our guidance."

TransDigm now expects fiscal 2023 financial guidance to be as follows:

• Net sales are anticipated to be in the range of $6,070 million to $6,240 million compared with $5,429 million in fiscal 2022 (an increase of $65 million at the mid-point);
• Net income from continuing operations is anticipated to be in the range of $1,080 million to $1,160 million compared with $866 million in fiscal 2022 (an increase of $44 million at the mid-point);
• Earnings per share from continuing operations is expected to be in the range of $18.24 to $19.64 per share based upon weighted average shares outstanding of 57.1 million shares compared with $13.38 per share in fiscal 2022 (an increase of $0.79 at the mid-point);
• EBITDA As Defined is anticipated to be in the range of $3,060 million to $3,160 million compared with $2,646 million in fiscal 2022 (an increase of $65 million at the midpoint and corresponding to an EBITDA As Defined margin guide of approximately 50.5% for fiscal 2023);
• Adjusted earnings per share is expected to be in the range of $21.47 to $22.87 per share compared with $17.14 per share in fiscal 2022 (an increase of $0.79 at the mid-point); and
• Fiscal 2023 outlook is based on the following market growth assumptions:
• Commercial aftermarket revenue growth in the high-teens percentage range (an increase from previous guidance of mid-teens percentage range);
• Commercial OEM revenue growth in the mid-teens percentage range; and
• Defense revenue growth in the low to mid-single-digit percentage range.

Non-GAAP Supplemental Information

EBITDA, EBITDA As Defined, EBITDA As Defined Margin, adjusted net income and adjusted earnings per share are non-GAAP financial measures presented in this press release as supplemental disclosures to net income and reported results. TransDigm Group defines EBITDA as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization and defines EBITDA As Defined as EBITDA plus certain non-operating items recorded as corporate expenses, including non-cash compensation charges incurred in connection with TransDigm Group's stock incentive or deferred compensation plans, foreign currency gains and losses, acquisition-integration costs, acquisition and divestiture transaction-related expenses, and refinancing costs.  Acquisition and divestiture-related costs represent accounting adjustments to inventory associated with acquisitions of businesses and product lines that were charged to cost of sales when the inventory was sold; costs incurred to integrate acquired businesses and product lines into the Company's operations, facility relocation costs and other acquisition-related costs; transaction-related costs for both acquisitions and divestitures comprising deal fees; legal, financial and tax diligence expenses and valuation costs that are required to be expensed as incurred and other acquisition accounting adjustments. TransDigm Group defines adjusted net income as net income plus purchase accounting backlog amortization expense, effects from the sale on businesses, non-cash compensation charges incurred in connection with TransDigm Group's stock incentive or deferred compensation plans, foreign currency gains and losses, acquisition-integration costs, acquisition and divestiture transaction-related expenses, and refinancing costs. EBITDA As Defined Margin represents EBITDA As Defined as a percentage of net sales. TransDigm Group defines adjusted diluted earnings per share as adjusted net income divided by the total outstanding shares for basic and diluted earnings per share. For more information regarding the computation of EBITDA, EBITDA As Defined and adjusted net income and adjusted earnings per share, please see the attached financial tables.

TransDigm Group presents these non-GAAP financial measures because it believes that they are useful indicators of its operating performance. TransDigm Group believes that EBITDA is useful to investors because it is frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties to measure operating performance among companies with different capital structures, effective tax rates and tax attributes, capitalized asset values and employee compensation structures, all of which can vary substantially from company to company. In addition, analysts, rating agencies and others use EBITDA to evaluate a company's ability to incur and service debt. EBITDA As Defined is used to measure TransDigm Inc.'s compliance with the financial covenant contained in its credit facility. TransDigm Group's management also uses EBITDA As Defined to review and assess its operating performance, to prepare its annual budget and financial projections and to review and evaluate its management team in connection with employee incentive programs. Moreover, TransDigm Group's management uses EBITDA As Defined to evaluate acquisitions and as a liquidity measure. In addition, TransDigm Group's management uses adjusted net income as a measure of comparable operating performance between time periods and among companies as it is reflective of changes in pricing decisions, cost controls and other factors that affect operating performance.

None of EBITDA, EBITDA As Defined, EBITDA As Defined Margin, adjusted net income or adjusted earnings per share is a measurement of financial performance under U.S. GAAP and such financial measures should not be considered as an alternative to net income, operating income, earnings per share, cash flows from operating activities or other measures of performance determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP. In addition, TransDigm Group's calculation of these non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to the calculation of similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

Although we use EBITDA and EBITDA As Defined as measures to assess the performance of our business and for the other purposes set forth above, the use of these non-GAAP financial measures as analytical tools has limitations, and you should not consider any of them in isolation, or as a substitute for analysis of our results of operations as reported in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Some of these limitations are:

• neither EBITDA nor EBITDA As Defined reflects the significant interest expense, or the cash requirements, necessary to service interest payments on our indebtedness;
• although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized will often have to be replaced in the future, and neither EBITDA nor EBITDA As Defined reflects any cash requirements for such replacements;
• the omission of the substantial amortization expense associated with our intangible assets further limits the usefulness of EBITDA and EBITDA As Defined;
• neither EBITDA nor EBITDA As Defined includes the payment of taxes, which is a necessary element of our operations; and
• EBITDA As Defined excludes the cash expense we have incurred to integrate acquired businesses into our operations, which is a necessary element of certain of our acquisitions.
