MINNEAPOLIS--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Tennant Company (“Tennant”) (NYSE: TNC), a world leader in the design, manufacture and marketing of solutions that help create a cleaner, safer and healthier world, today reported its third-quarter results for 2021. Third-quarter net sales totaled $272.0 million, representing a year-over-year increase of 4.7 percent on an organic basis. Net income for the third quarter of 2021 was $21.5 million, or $1.14 per diluted share, compared with $11.7 million, or $0.63 per diluted share, in the year-ago period. Adjusted diluted earnings per share, which exclude certain non-operational items and amortization expense, were $1.33, compared with $0.90 in the third quarter of 2020. Excluding non-operational items, adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) for the third quarter of 2021 were $36.0 million, or 13.2 percent of sales, compared with $32.6 million, or 12.4 percent of sales, in the year-ago period. In the third quarter of 2021, cash flow from operations provided $25.1 million, compared with $49.0 million in the prior-year third quarter. (See the Supplemental Non-GAAP Financial Table.)

“Tennant’s third-quarter results reflect a robust market recovery and a return to pre-pandemic product demand across the majority of our geographic markets,” said Dave Huml, Tennant Company’s President and Chief Executive Officer. “While we are encouraged by this business recovery, our third-quarter performance was impacted by the increasing global supply disruptions and labor constraints that have cut across virtually every industry. These macro-level headwinds did create operational challenges within the quarter, which resulted in a record level of order backlog. In response to these market headwinds, we’ve taken actions wherever possible to minimize the impact on our operations, to safeguard our customer experience, and to deliver on our financial commitments. In addition to our short-term mitigation actions, we continue to benefit from changes we've made, and continue to make, to our operating model. We remain confident in our ability to drive sustainable growth and improve our operational efficiencies to continue to generate long-term value for our shareholders.”

Third-Quarter Revenue

In the third quarter of 2021, Tennant’s consolidated net sales of $272.0 million were up 3.9 percent over the same period last year, or 4.7 percent on an organic basis, including a favorable foreign-exchange effect of 1.2 percent and a negative divestiture impact of 2.0 percent related to the sale of the Company’s coatings business in the first quarter of 2021.

• Americas – Sales in the Americas decreased 0.6 percent year-over-year with organic growth of 2.0 percent, which includes a negative divestiture impact of 3.1 percent and a favorable foreign exchange effect of 0.5 percent. The results were driven by strong sales in Latin America, particularly in Brazil and Mexico, along with robust performance in the Company’s parts and consumables and service categories. North America delivered modest organic growth as compared to the prior-year period due to the lapping of a larger Autonomous Mobile Robot (AMR) order in the prior-year quarter. Results were also impacted by global supply-chain and labor constraints during the third quarter of 2021, which contributed to lower revenue and increased backlog levels despite increased market demand.
• Europe, the Middle East, and Africa (EMEA) –Sales in EMEA increased 16.1 percent, or 14.0 percent organically, including a favorable foreign exchange effect of 2.1 percent, with growth across all countries and product categories as demand returned to pre-pandemic levels.
• Asia-Pacific (APAC) – Sales in APAC decreased 0.4 percent, or 2.9 percent on an organic basis, including a positive foreign exchange effect of 2.7 percent and a negative revenue impact of 0.2 percent related to the sale of the Company’s coatings business. The sales decline was partially attributed to pandemic-related lockdowns in some markets during the third quarter of 2021, along with supply-chain disruptions and labor constraints that affected North American plants supplying APAC, which limited the Company’s ability to meet orders in China and Japan. The region recorded strong results for parts and consumables and service, along with strength in Australia across all product categories.

Third-Quarter Profitability Measures

• Gross Margin – Reported and adjusted gross margin in the third quarter of 2021 were both 40.1 percent, compared with a reported gross margin of 39.6 percent and adjusted gross margin of 39.8 percent in the year-ago period. The increase was in spite of supply and labor constraints and reflects the lapping of a number of strategic investments and productivity challenges based on lower volume due to the pandemic-related slowdown in the year-ago period.
• Adjusted EBITDA – Adjusted EBITDA in the third quarter of 2021 increased to $36.0 million, or 13.2 percent of sales, compared with $32.6 million, or 12.4 percent of sales, in the third quarter of 2020. The year-over-year improvement was primarily driven by increased revenue, as the Company continued to lap the pandemic-related slowdown of the prior-year quarter. Results also reflect continued expense management and the adjustment of management incentives during the third quarter in light of current market expectations.

   

Cash Flow, Capital Allocation and Liquidity

During the third quarter of 2021, Tennant generated $25.1 million in cash flow from operations, driven primarily by strong overall business performance. As of September 30, 2021, the Company had $140.6 million in cash and cash equivalents. Also in the third quarter, the Company repurchased 102,229 shares of its common stock for $7.5 million under its existing share repurchase program.

As previously announced, Tennant’s board of directors authorized a 9.0 percent increase in the Company’s quarterly cash dividend to $0.25 per share. The increased dividend is payable December 15, 2021, to shareholders of record at the close of business on November 30, 2021, marking the 50th consecutive year that the Company has increased its annual cash dividend payout.

2021 Business Outlook

“Our full-year guidance reflects what continues to be a challenging operational environment, which we expect to persist well into 2022,” said Huml. “Nonetheless, given our return to pre-pandemic levels of overall product demand, we remain confident that we are in a long-term, global recovery for commercial and industrial cleaning equipment and are relentlessly focused on providing our customers with high-quality products and exceptional service as we execute on our growth strategy.”

For 2021, Tennant provides the following guidance:

• Net sales of $1.09 billion to $1.1 billion, reflecting organic sales growth of 9 to 10 percent;
• Full-year reported GAAP earnings in the range of $3.50 to $3.70 per diluted share;
• Adjusted EPS of $4.20 to $4.40 per diluted share, which excludes certain non-operational items and amortization expense;
• Adjusted EBITDA of $137 million to $142 million;
• Capital expenditures of approximately $20 million; and
• An adjusted effective tax rate of approximately 15 percent, which excludes the amortization expense adjustment.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This news release and the related conference call include presentation of Non-GAAP measures that include or exclude special items of a nonrecurring and/or non-operational nature (hereinafter referred to as “special items”). Management believes that the Non-GAAP measures provide useful information to investors regarding the Company’s results of operations and financial condition because they permit a more meaningful comparison and understanding of Tennant Company’s operating performance for the current, past or future periods. Management uses these Non-GAAP measures to monitor and evaluate ongoing operating results and trends and to gain an understanding of the comparative operating performance of the Company.

We believe that disclosing gross profit – as adjusted, gross margin – as adjusted, selling and administrative (“S&A”) expense – as adjusted, S&A expense as a percent of net sales – as adjusted, operating income – as adjusted, operating margin – as adjusted, income before income taxes – as adjusted, income tax expense – as adjusted, net income attributable to Tennant Company – as adjusted, net income attributable to Tennant Company per share – as adjusted, EBITDA – as adjusted, and EBITDA margin – as adjusted (collectively, the “Non-GAAP Measures”), excluding the impacts from special items, is useful to investors as a measure of operating performance. We use these as one measure to monitor and evaluate operating performance. The Non-GAAP measures are financial measures that do not reflect United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP). We calculate gross profit – as adjusted and gross margin – as adjusted by adjusting for the discontinuation of product lines. We calculate S&A expense – as adjusted, and S&A expense as a percent of net sales – as adjusted by adjusting for restructuring charges, acquisition-contingent consideration and gain on sale of business recorded in S&A. We calculate operating income – as adjusted and operating margin – as adjusted by adjusting for the pre-tax effect of the discontinuation of product lines, restructuring charges, acquisition-contingent consideration and gain on sale of business. We calculate income before income taxes – as adjusted by adjusting for the pre-tax effect of the discontinuation of product lines, restructuring charges, acquisition-contingent consideration, amortization expense, gain on sale of business and loss on extinguishment of debt. We calculate income tax expense – as adjusted by adjusting for the tax effect of the discontinuation of product lines, restructuring charges, acquisition-contingent consideration, amortization expense, gain on sale of business and loss on extinguishment of debt. We calculate net income attributable to Tennant Company – as adjusted by adjusting for the after-tax effect of the discontinuation of product lines, restructuring charges, acquisition-contingent consideration, amortization expense, gain on sale of business and loss on extinguishment of debt. We calculate net income attributable to Tennant Company per share – as adjusted by adjusting for the after-tax effect of the discontinuation of product lines, restructuring charges, acquisition-contingent consideration, amortization expense, gain on sale of business and loss on extinguishment of debt, and dividing the result by the diluted weighted average shares outstanding. We calculate EBITDA – as adjusted by adjusting for the pre-tax effect of the discontinuation of product lines, restructuring charges, acquisition-contingent consideration, amortization expense, gain on sale of business, loss on extinguishment of debt, interest expense, net, income tax expense, depreciation expense and amortization expense to net income including noncontrolling interest – as reported. We calculate EBITDA margin – as adjusted by dividing EBITDA – as adjusted by net sales.

Investors should consider these Non-GAAP financial measures in addition to, not as a substitute for, or better than, financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. Reconciliations of the components of these measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are included in the Supplemental Non-GAAP Financial Table to this earnings release.
