  • DBM Global grew gross margin to 20.2%

Insights

INNOVATE Corp's Q2 2024 results show mixed performance across segments. Revenue decreased 15.1% year-over-year to $313.1 million, primarily due to lower Infrastructure revenue. However, the company achieved net income of $14.1 million, a significant improvement from a $10.5 million loss last year.

The Infrastructure segment, despite lower revenue, expanded gross margins to 20.2% and Adjusted EBITDA margins to 10.6%, showing improved profitability. The Life Sciences segment saw record Glacial system sales, while Spectrum improved both top and bottom lines.

Notably, total Adjusted EBITDA increased 61.8% to $26.7 million, indicating stronger operational efficiency. The company's cash position remains stable at $80.2 million. These results suggest INNOVATE is managing costs effectively despite revenue challenges, potentially positioning it for improved performance as market conditions normalize.

INNOVATE's Q2 results reflect broader market trends. The Infrastructure segment's revenue decline aligns with the current softer construction market, yet their margin expansion demonstrates effective cost management. This could position them well when the market rebounds.

In Life Sciences, R2's record Glacial system sales in North America, up 200% year-over-year, indicate growing demand for aesthetic medical devices. This trend may continue as consumer spending on personal care increases post-pandemic.

The Spectrum segment's growth, driven by new network launches and expanded coverage, reflects the ongoing shift towards over-the-air broadcasting and ATSC 3.0 technology. Their collaboration with Qualcomm on 5G broadcasting opportunities could open new revenue streams in the evolving media landscape.

Overall, INNOVATE's diversified portfolio appears to be balancing sector-specific challenges with emerging opportunities, potentially offering resilience in uncertain economic conditions.

From a legal perspective, INNOVATE's Q2 report raises several noteworthy points. The company's 1-for-10 reverse stock split, effective August 9, 2024, is a significant corporate action that could impact shareholder rights and stock liquidity. It's important for investors to understand the implications of this change.

The ongoing FDA review of MediBeacon's kidney monitoring program is a key regulatory hurdle. The outcome could significantly affect the Life Sciences segment's future prospects and potential liabilities.

INNOVATE's expansion in broadcasting, including the acquisition of a new station in Monterey, CA, involves FCC regulatory compliance. The company's exploration of 5G broadcasting opportunities with Qualcomm may also require navigating complex telecommunications regulations.

Lastly, the Phase I clinical study for BeneVir Biopharm's Oncolytic Virus therapy brings potential regulatory and liability considerations typical of pharmaceutical development. Investors should monitor these legal and regulatory aspects closely.

- Infrastructure: DBM Global achieved second quarter revenue of $305.2 million -
- Life Sciences: R2 achieved record Glacial system sales in North America in the second quarter -
- Spectrum: Broadcasting's growth driven by launch of new networks and cost-cutting efforts -

Commentary
“INNOVATE achieved strong second quarter financial results, reporting revenue of $313.1 million,” said Avie Glazer, Chairman of INNOVATE. “Infrastructure delivered net income attributable to INNOVATE and Adjusted EBITDA year-over-year growth again in the second quarter. At Life Sciences, R2 once again achieved record high Glacial system unit sales in North America in the second quarter, a 200% increase over the same period last year and MediBeacon continues to work through their substantive review of the kidney monitoring program with the FDA. And at Spectrum, we improved both on the top and bottom line in the second quarter as well as year-to-date.”

“Our strong second quarter results are underscored by the performance across our three operating segments,” said Paul Voigt, INNOVATE's Interim CEO. “DBM expanded margins further in the quarter highlighting the team's resiliency in a softer construction market. At Pansend, R2 experienced strong momentum in North America unit sales which grew, again, in the second quarter, while MediBeacon continues to see great opportunity in the market for real time monitoring of kidney function. Finally, Broadcasting continues to fill our station platform with higher quality business that has translated into stronger financial results.”

Second Quarter 2024 Financial Highlights

  • Revenue: For the second quarter of 2024, INNOVATE's consolidated revenue was $313.1 million, a decrease of 15.1%, compared to $368.8 million for the prior year quarter. The decrease was driven by our Infrastructure segment, which was partially offset by increases at our Life Sciences and Spectrum segments. The decrease at our Infrastructure segment was primarily driven by the timing and size of projects at Banker Steel and DBMG's commercial structural steel fabrication and erection business, both of which had increased activity in the comparable period on certain large commercial construction projects that are now at or near completion in the current period. This was partially offset by an increase at the industrial maintenance and repair business as a result of an increase in project work. The increase at our Life Sciences segment was primarily due to incremental unit sales from the launch of the Glacial fx system in the second half of 2023 and an increase in Glacial Rx units sold compared to the prior year period. The increase at our Spectrum segment was primarily driven by network launches and expanded coverage with existing customers.

  • Net Income (Loss): For the second quarter of 2024, INNOVATE reported a Net Income attributable to common stockholders and participating preferred stockholders of $14.1 million, or $0.10 per fully diluted share, compared to a Net Loss of $10.5 million, or $0.13 per fully diluted share, for the prior year quarter. The increase in Net Income was primarily due to a net increase in gross profit of $13.0 million, an increase in other operating income of $10.6 million, a $3.7 million decrease in tax expense and a decrease in depreciation and amortization of $1.2 million, which was partially offset by an increase in selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") expenses of $1.8 million and an increase of $0.8 million in the loss from equity investees. The increase in gross profit was primarily driven by our Infrastructure segment due to timing and size of projects that are now at or near completion in the current period, including the effect of changes in estimated costs to complete those projects recognized in the ordinary course of business, and, to a lesser extent, our Spectrum and Life Sciences segments. The overall increase in other operating income was driven by our Infrastructure segment primarily as a result of a gain on lease modification and gain on the sale of various properties in the current period. The overall decrease in tax expense was driven by the tax expense of INNOVATE Corp's U.S. consolidated group utilizing its remaining unlimited NOLs in 2024 and due to the Tax Cut and Jobs Act's 80 percent limitation on net operating losses incurred after 2017, resulting in the annual effective tax rate for the current period being applied to the U.S. consolidated group's 2024 year-to-date income as calculated under ASC 740. The overall decrease in depreciation and amortization was primarily driven by our Infrastructure segment, as certain customer contract intangibles became fully amortized in the second quarter of 2023. The overall increase in SG&A expenses was primarily driven by our Infrastructure segment which saw increases in compensation-related expenses and accounting-related costs, which were partially offset by a decrease in legal and consulting fees and facility-related expenses at the Infrastructure segment and a decrease in SG&A expenses at our Non-Operating Corporate segment primarily driven by decreases in compensation-related expenses, including reductions in bonus and stock compensation expense due to headcount changes, and a decrease in legal fees. The overall increase in loss from equity investees was due to an increase in losses from MediBeacon as a result of $1.1 million additional convertible note investments in MediBeacon, which Pansend recognized $1.1 million of equity method losses which were previously unrecognized. Pansend made no convertible note investments during the comparable period.

  • Adjusted EBITDA: For the second quarter of 2024, total Adjusted EBITDA, was $26.7 million compared to total Adjusted EBITDA of $16.5 million for the prior year quarter. The increase in Adjusted EBITDA was primarily driven by higher margins on certain large commercial construction projects that are now at or near completion in the current period at DBMG's commercial structural steel fabrication and erection business, a decrease in compensation-related expenses, due to headcount changes, and a decrease in legal fees at our Non-Operating Corporate segment and an increase in revenue driven by network launches and expanded coverage with existing customers at our Spectrum segment. The increase in Adjusted EBITDA was partially offset by a decrease in margins at Banker Steel due to timing of completion of a large commercial construction project and an increase in recurring SG&A expenses, primarily as a result of an increase in compensation-related expenses and accounting-related costs. The increase in Adjusted EBITDA was also partially offset by an increase in losses at our Life Sciences segment as a result of additional convertible note investments in MediBeacon by Pansend during the three months ended June 30, 2024, which increased Pansend's basis in MediBeacon by $1.1 million and led to Pansend recognizing $1.1 million of equity method losses which were previously unrecognized. Pansend made no convertible note investments during the comparable period.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In this press release, INNOVATE refers to certain financial measures that are not presented in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), including Total Adjusted EBITDA (excluding discontinued operations, if applicable) and Adjusted EBITDA for its operating segments. In addition, other companies may define Adjusted EBITDA differently than we do, which could limit its usefulness.

Adjusted EBITDA

Management believes that Adjusted EBITDA provides investors with meaningful information for gaining an understanding of our results as it is frequently used by the financial community to provide insight into an organization’s operating trends and facilitates comparisons between peer companies, since interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization and the other items listed in the definition of Adjusted EBITDA below can differ greatly between organizations as a result of differing capital structures and tax strategies. Adjusted EBITDA can also be a useful measure of a company’s ability to service debt. While management believes that non-U.S. GAAP measurements are useful supplemental information, such adjusted results are not intended to replace our U.S. GAAP financial results. Using Adjusted EBITDA as a performance measure has inherent limitations as an analytical tool as compared to net income (loss) or other U.S. GAAP financial measures, as this non-GAAP measure excludes certain items, including items that are recurring in nature, which may be meaningful to investors. As a result of the exclusions, Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered in isolation and does not purport to be an alternative to net income (loss) or other U.S. GAAP financial measures as a measure of our operating performance.

The calculation of Adjusted EBITDA, as defined by us, consists of Net income (loss) attributable to INNOVATE Corp., excluding: discontinued operations, if applicable; depreciation and amortization; other operating (income) loss, which is inclusive of (gain) loss on sale or disposal of assets, lease termination costs, (gains) losses on lease modifications, asset impairment expense and FCC reimbursements; interest expense; other (income) expense, net; income tax expense (benefit); non-controlling interest; share-based compensation expense; restructuring and exit costs; and acquisition and disposition costs.
