CLEVELAND, Aug. 8, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- TransDigm Group Incorporated (NYSE: TDG), a leading global designer, producer and supplier of highly engineered aircraft components, today reported results for the third quarter ended July 1, 2023.

Third quarter highlights include:

• Net sales of $1,744 million, up 25% from $1,398 million in the prior year's quarter;
• Income from continuing operations of $352 million, up 47% from the prior year's quarter;
• Earnings per share from continuing operations of $6.14, up 50% from the prior year's quarter;
• EBITDA As Defined of $915 million, up 31% from $696 million in the prior year's quarter;
• EBITDA As Defined margin of 52.5%;
• Adjusted earnings per share of $7.25, up 49% from $4.85 in the prior year's quarter; and
• Upward revision to fiscal 2023 financial guidance to reflect the continued strong performance of the Company.

Quarter-to-Date Results

Net sales for the quarter increased 24.7%, or $346 million, to $1,744 million from $1,398 million in the comparable quarter a year ago. Organic sales growth as a percentage of net sales was 20.7%.

Income from continuing operations for the quarter increased $113 million, or 47.3%, to $352 million from $239 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 comparable quarter a year ago also included the adverse impact of a pension settlement charge for the Esterline Retirement Plan. These favorable items contributing to the increase in income from continuing operations was partially offset by a higher effective tax rate, higher one-time refinancing costs and higher interest expense.

Adjusted net income for the quarter increased 47.3% to $414 million, or $7.25 per share, from $281 million, or $4.85 per share, in the comparable quarter a year ago.

EBITDA for the quarter increased 29.1% to $830 million from $643 million for the comparable quarter a year ago. EBITDA As Defined for the quarter increased 31.5% to $915 million compared with $696 million in the comparable quarter a year ago. EBITDA As Defined as a percentage of net sales for the quarter was 52.5% compared with 49.8% in the comparable quarter a year ago.

As previously reported, on May 8, 2023, TransDigm completed the acquisition of Calspan Corporation ("Calspan") for approximately $725 million in cash, including certain tax benefits. Calspan is a leading independent provider of highly engineered testing and technology development services and systems primarily for the aerospace & defense industry. Calspan's state of the art transonic wind tunnel in Buffalo, New York is used across a range of important aftermarket-focused development activities for both the commercial and defense aerospace end markets.

"I am incredibly pleased with the operating results for the third quarter. We continued to see strong Company performance along with further progression in the commercial aerospace market recovery. As we advance towards the end of our fiscal year, we are optimistic that the favorable trends in the commercial aerospace market will continue," stated Kevin Stein, TransDigm Group's President and Chief Executive Officer. "For the third quarter, our total revenue was strong, and we had a robust EBITDA as Defined margin. Revenues sequentially improved in all three of our major market channels - commercial OEM, commercial aftermarket and defense. Additionally, our diligent focus on our operating strategy and the continued recovery of the commercial aftermarket revenues drove further advancement in our EBITDA as Defined margin. The margin improved to 52.5% for the quarter, up approximately 270 basis points from the comparable prior year period."

Year-to-Date Results

Net sales for the thirty-nine week period ended July 1, 2023 increased 20.8%, or $814 million, to $4,733 million from $3,919 million in the comparable period a year ago. Organic sales growth as a percentage of net sales for the thirty-nine week period ended July 1, 2023 was 18.0%.

Income from continuing operations for the thirty-nine week period ended July 1, 2023 increased $284 million, or 47.3%, to $885 million from $601 million in the comparable period 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, higher interest expense and higher one-time refinancing costs.

GAAP earnings per share were reduced in fiscal 2023 and 2022 by $0.67 per share and $0.78 per share, respectively, as a result of dividend equivalent payments made during each year. 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 thirty-nine week period ended July 1, 2023 increased 48.5% to $1,017 million, or $17.80 per share, from $685 million, or $11.68 per share, in the comparable period a year ago.

EBITDA for the thirty-nine week period ended July 1, 2023 increased 27.6% to $2,237 million from $1,753 million for the comparable period a year ago. EBITDA As Defined for the period increased 28.4% to $2,432 compared with $1,894 in the comparable period a year ago. EBITDA As Defined as a percentage of net sales for the period was 51.4% compared with 48.3% in the comparable period a year ago.

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 third quarter results and our current expectations for the remainder of the fiscal year. We are very pleased to once more raise our guidance for fiscal 2023 and to see further progression in the recovery of the commercial aerospace market."

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

• Net sales are anticipated to be in the range of $6,525 million to $6,585 million compared with $5,429 million in fiscal 2022 (an increase of $100 million at the mid-point);
• Net income from continuing operations is anticipated to be in the range of $1,227 million to $1,251 million compared with $866 million in fiscal 2022 (an increase of $73 million at the mid-point);
• Earnings per share from continuing operations is expected to be in the range of $20.78 to $21.20 per share based upon weighted average shares outstanding of 57.15 million shares compared with $13.38 per share in fiscal 2022 (an increase of $1.25 at the mid-point);
• EBITDA As Defined is anticipated to be in the range of $3,350 million to $3,380 million compared with $2,646 million in fiscal 2022 (an increase of $105 million at the midpoint and corresponding to an EBITDA As Defined margin guide of approximately 51.3% for fiscal 2023);
• Adjusted earnings per share is expected to be in the range of $24.94 to $25.36 per share compared with $17.14 per share in fiscal 2022 (an increase of $1.40 at the mid-point); and
• Fiscal 2023 outlook is based on the following market growth assumptions:
• Commercial aftermarket revenue growth in the low 30% range;
• Commercial OEM revenue growth in the 20% to 25% range; and
• Defense revenue growth in the mid to high-single-digit percentage range.

Please see the attached Table 6 for a reconciliation of EBITDA, EBITDA As Defined to net income and reported earnings per share to adjusted earnings per share guidance mid-point estimated for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2023. Additionally, please see attached Table 7 for comparison of the current fiscal year 2023 guidance versus the previously issued fiscal year 2023 guidance.

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, 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.

For the thirteen and thirty-nine week periods ended July 1, 2023 and July 2, 2022, the Tax adjustment represents the tax effect of the adjustments at the applicable effective tax rate, as well as the impact on the effective tax rate when excluding the excess tax benefits on stock option exercises. Stock compensation expense is excluded from adjusted net income and therefore we have excluded the impact that the excess tax benefits on stock option exercises have on the effective tax rate for determining adjusted net income.
