Haynes International, Inc. Reports Fourth Quarter Fiscal 2023 Financial Results and Year End Highlights

  • Fourth quarter net revenues of $160.6 million. Fiscal year 2023 net revenues of $590.0 million, up over 20% from last year, and a Company record year in revenue in both Aerospace and Industrial Gas Turbines.
  • Gross margin for the fourth quarter of 18.5% of revenue. Excluding the raw material headwind of $3.7 million, adjusted gross margin was 20.9% of revenue.

  • Unfavorable change in estimated raw material impact between the two fiscal years of $22.0 million pretax. In addition, the cyber security incident in the third quarter impacted results by an estimated $7.0 million pretax.
  • Fourth quarter net income of $13.2 million, or $1.02 per diluted earnings per share, compared to last year’s fourth quarter of $16.3 million, or $1.30 per diluted earnings per share. Fiscal 2023 net income of $42.0 million, or $3.26 per diluted earnings per share, compared to last year fiscal 2022 of $45.1 million, or $3.57 per diluted earnings per share.
  • Favorable tax rate adjustment recorded in the fourth quarter related to foreign source income lowered full year effective tax rate to 19%. Expected tax rate going forward is 21-22%.
  • Backlog of $460.4 million as of September 30, 2023, up 23.2% year-over-year, led by strength in aerospace and industrial gas turbine demand. Sequentially backlog declined $(7.7) million due to strengthening fourth quarter revenue levels and lower quoted lead times on certain products which can impact ordering patterns.

KOKOMO, Ind., Nov. 16, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Haynes International, Inc. (NASDAQ GS: HAYN) (the “Company”), a leading developer, manufacturer and marketer of technologically advanced high-performance alloys, today reported financial results for the fourth quarter ended September 30, 2023. In addition, the Company announced that its Board of Directors has authorized a regular quarterly cash dividend of $0.22 per outstanding share.

“We are proud of everything we accomplished in 2023, both in our 4th quarter and for the fiscal year. Revenue in the fourth quarter exceeded $160 million, and increased over 20% for the fiscal year, driven by company record revenues in both the aerospace and industrial gas turbine markets. In addition, for the fiscal year, our backlog increased 23.2%, and, when removing the impact of the raw material headwinds, our EBITDA run rate approached $100 million,” said Michael L. Shor, President and Chief Executive Officer. “Looking forward to fiscal 2024, we expect continued top line growth, combined with incremental improvements in gross margin. In addition, we believe that we have the backlog, people, inventory, and lead times in place to begin to generate cash throughout fiscal year 2024.”

4th Quarter Results

Net Revenues. Net revenues were $160.6 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023, an increase of 11.7% from the same period of fiscal 2022 due to an increase in product average selling price per pound of $3.24 or 11.4%. The increase in product average selling price per pound largely reflected price increases and other sales factors, which increased the product average selling price per pound by approximately $2.63 and a favorable product mix, which increased the product average selling price per pound by approximately $0.91. Partially offsetting these increases were lower market prices of raw materials, which decreased product average selling price per pound by approximately $0.30. Pounds sold during the quarter were adversely impacted by an unplanned outage of a critical piece of equipment in the Kokomo manufacturing facility, however the Company shipped 4.9 million pounds during the fourth quarter which was approximately the same as the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022.

Cost of Sales. Cost of sales was $130.8 million, or 81.4% of net revenues, in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023 compared to $111.9 million, or 77.8% of net revenues, in the same period of fiscal 2022. Cost of sales as a percentage of revenues in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023 was higher than fourth quarter of fiscal 2022 due to higher raw material prices included in cost of sales relative to the impact of raw material price adjustors in selling prices.

Gross Profit. Gross profit was $29.8 million for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023, a decrease of $2.1 million from the same period of fiscal 2022. Gross profit was adversely impacted by higher raw material prices included in cost of sales relative to the impact of raw material price adjustors in selling prices, which decreased gross profit. In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022, gross profit benefited from lower raw material prices included in cost of sales relative to the impact of raw material price adjustors in selling prices, which increased gross profit.

Selling, General and Administrative Expense. Selling, general and administrative expense was $12.5 million for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023, an increase of $0.4 million from the same period of fiscal 2022. The increase in expense from the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022 was driven by a loss on the disposal of some aged equipment that reached the end of its useful life. Selling, general and administrative expense as a percent of net revenues decreased from 8.4% in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022 to 7.8% in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023, largely driven by the higher net revenues in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023.

Research and Technical Expense. Research and technical expense was $1.1 million, or 0.7% of net revenue, for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023, compared to $1.0 million, or 0.7% of net revenue, in the same period of fiscal 2022.

Operating Income. The above factors, including the impacts from raw material prices in selling prices differing from raw material prices included in cost of sales, led to a decrease in operating income to $16.1 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023 compared to $18.8 million in the same period of fiscal 2022.

Nonoperating retirement benefit expense (income). Nonoperating retirement benefit expense (income) was a benefit of $0.7 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023 compared to a benefit of $1.4 million in the same period of fiscal 2022. The lower income recorded in nonoperating retirement benefit expense (income) in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023 was primarily driven by an increase in the discount rate used in the actuarial valuation of the U.S. pension plan liability as of September 30, 2022 which resulted in a higher interest cost component of nonoperating retirement benefit expense (income) in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023 when compared to the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022. Partially offsetting the higher interest cost was the amortization of the actuarial gains of the U.S. pension plan liability in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023.

Interest expense. Interest expense was $2.1 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023 compared to $0.9 million in the same period of fiscal 2022 primarily driven by higher borrowings against the revolving line of credit and higher interest rates.

Income Taxes. Income tax expense was $1.7 million during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023, a decrease of $1.2 million from expense of $2.9 million in the same period of fiscal 2022, driven primarily by a difference in income before income taxes of $4.5 million. Income tax expense in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023 as a percentage of income before income taxes was 11.5% as compared to 15.3% in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022. The decrease was largely driven by lower tax expense on foreign sourced income in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023 as compared to the same period of fiscal 2022.

Net Income. As a result of the above factors, net income in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023 was $13.1 million, compared to $16.3 million in the same period of fiscal 2022.

Volumes and Pricing

Solid increases in volume and average selling price per pound were achieved in aerospace and industrial gas turbines in fiscal 2023. Fiscal 2023 aerospace volume increased 10.5% along with a 14.3% increase in aerospace average selling price, resulting in a 26.3%, or $60.4 million, aerospace revenue increase compared to the prior year. This increase was primarily driven by the single-aisle commercial aircraft recovery, with the double-aisle aircraft recovery just beginning. Industrial gas turbine (IGT) volumes were up 19.7% along with a 9.8% increase in the IGT average selling price, resulting in a 31.4%, or $28.9 million, IGT revenue increase compared to the prior year due to market share gains along with higher usage of a Haynes proprietary alloy in a maintenance repair and overhaul application for a certain turbine. Fiscal 2023 volumes in the chemical processing industry (CPI) decreased (20.8)% compared to the prior year; however, the CPI average selling price per pound increased 26.7%, resulting in flat revenue compared to the prior year. The Company focused on higher-value alloys and applications, with less focus on the commodity lower-value segment of the CPI market. Similarly, volumes in other markets decreased (11.5)% compared to the prior year; however, the other markets’ average selling price per pound increased 26.8%, resulting in a 12.3% increase compared to the prior year as a result of similar mix management strategies.

The product average selling price per pound in fiscal 2023 was $30.43, which was a 14.9% increase over prior fiscal year. The product average selling price per pound for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023 was $31.56, which was an increase of 11.5% from the same period last year. This increase was driven by raw material costs, price increases, and product mix.  

Gross Profit Margin Trend Performance

A significant strategic effort to improve gross margins has occurred over the past few years involving both pricing actions and cost improvements. This effort was beginning to gain traction with gross profit as a percent of revenue hitting approximately 18% in the months preceding the pandemic. As a result of this strategy, the Company reduced the volume breakeven point by over 25%. The Company previously struggled to be profitable at roughly 5.0 million pounds. Now, with the current product mix, the Company can generate profits at lower volumes as first demonstrated in the third quarter of fiscal 2021, producing a positive net income at only 3.7 million pounds shipped. As volume continued to rise during fiscal 2022 and fiscal 2023, incremental profitability leverage helped improve gross margins significantly when considering neutral raw material impact.

Rising or falling raw material costs can impact gross margins significantly. Rising raw material market prices helped expand gross margins in fiscal 2022 especially in the third quarter. Falling raw material market prices compress gross margins which occurred during fiscal 2023 especially in the first and fourth quarters. Neutral of this estimated impact of raw material fluctuations (as well as the fiscal 2023 third quarter cyber-incident), gross margins remained near 21% or higher in the last six quarters.

Backlog

Backlog has significantly increased due to strong demand. In response, the Company added production headcount and invested in inventory in order to increase shipping levels and net revenue. The backlog peaked in the third quarter of fiscal 2023 at $468.1 million, then declined $7.8 million as fourth quarter revenue increased to $160.6 million; the highest quarterly revenue of fiscal 2023. The Company’s backlog dollars at September 30, 2023 increased compared September 30, 2022 by 23.2% due to a 14.4% increase in backlog pounds combined with a 7.7% increase in backlog average selling price. The increase in backlog was primarily driven by sales order increases in the industrial gas turbine market and the aerospace market.

Capital Spending

Capital investment in fiscal 2023 was $16.4 million, and the capital spending in fiscal 2024 is planned to be between $25.0 million and $35.0 million.

Working Capital

Controllable working capital, which includes accounts receivable, inventory, accounts payable and accrued expenses, was $449.4 million at September 30, 2023, an increase of $71.1 million or 18.8% from $378.3 million at September 30, 2022. The increase resulted primarily from inventory increasing by $56.5 million during fiscal 2023, accounts receivable increasing by $11.4 million during the same period, and accounts payable and accrued expenses decreasing by $3.2 million during the same period.

Liquidity

The Company had cash and cash equivalents of $10.7 million as of September 30, 2023 compared to $8.4 million as of September 30, 2022. Additionally, the Company had $114.8 million of borrowings against the $200.0 million line of credit outstanding with remaining capacity available of $85.2 million as of September 30, 2023, putting total liquidity at $95.9 million.

Net cash used in operating activities during fiscal 2023 was $16.7 million compared to net cash used in operating activities of $79.5 million in fiscal 2022. The decrease in cash used in operating activities during fiscal 2023 was driven by an increase in inventory of $50.4 million as compared to an increase of $116.8 million during fiscal 2022 and an increase in accounts receivable of $8.2 million as compared to an increase of $42.7 million in fiscal 2022. This was partially offset by a decrease in accounts payable and accrued expenses of $8.5 million during fiscal 2023 as compared to an increase of $10.7 million in fiscal 2022, a difference of $19.2 million.

Net cash used in investing activities was $16.4 million during fiscal 2023, which was higher than net cash used in investing activities of $15.1 million during in fiscal 2022 due to higher additions to property, plant and equipment.

Net cash provided by financing activities was $34.6 million during fiscal 2023, a decrease of $22.0 million from cash provided by financing activities of $56.6 million in fiscal 2022. This difference was primarily driven by a net borrowing of $40.1 million against the revolving line of credit during fiscal 2023 compared to a net borrowing of $74.7 million in fiscal 2022. This was partially offset with proceeds from the exercise of stock options of $8.2 million during fiscal 2023 as compared to proceeds from the exercise of stock options of $0.5 million in fiscal 2022 and lower share repurchases of $0.9 million in fiscal 2023 as compared to $7.2 million during the same period of fiscal 2022. Dividends paid of $11.2 million during fiscal 2023 were higher than dividends paid of $11.1 million in fiscal 2022.

Dividend Declared

On November 16, 2023, the Company announced that the Board of Directors declared a regular quarterly cash dividend of $0.22 per outstanding share of the Company’s common stock. The dividend is payable December 15, 2023 to stockholders of record at the close of business on December 1, 2023. Any future dividends will be at the discretion of the Board of Directors.

Guidance

For the full fiscal year 2024, we expect continued volume and revenue growth, incremental improvements in gross margin, and positive cash flow from operations. The Company expects the revolver balance to decline in fiscal year 2024, gaining momentum as we progress through the fiscal year. Revenue and earnings in the first quarter of fiscal 2024 are expected to be higher compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2023, but lower than the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023. First quarter results are typically lower due to the impact of holidays, planned equipment maintenance outages and customers managing their calendar year-end balance sheets. In addition, the Company is planning a three week upgrade to the Kokomo Anneal and Kolene line in the quarter, which may impact efficiency and the mix of products sold in the first quarter of fiscal 2024.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURE - ADJUSTED EBITDA ADJUSTED EBITDA AS A PERCENTAGE OF NET REVENUES
(Unaudited)
(in thousands, except share data)

Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA as a Percentage of Net Revenues

Adjusted EBITDA as reported herein refers to a financial measure that excludes from consolidated operating income (loss) non-cash charges for depreciation, amortization and stock compensation expense. Management believes that Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of net revenues provides a relevant indicator of the Company’s value by eliminating the impact of financing and other non-cash impacts of past investments. Management uses its results excluding these non-cash amounts to evaluate its operating performance.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURE - ADJUSTED GROSS PROFIT MARGIN – EXCLUDING THE ESTIMATED IMPACTS OF NICKEL AND COBALT FLUCTUATIONS
(Unaudited)
(in thousands, except share data)

Adjusted Gross Profit and Adjusted Gross Profit % – Excluding the estimated impact of nickel and cobalt fluctuations

Management believes that Adjusted Gross profit margin and Adjusted Gross profit % – Excluding the estimated impact of nickel and cobalt fluctuations provide relevant indicator of the Company’s profitability by eliminating the impact of fluctuating impacts of nickel and cobalt prices which can compress or expand gross profit margin. The estimated gross profit and gross profit % impact from nickel and cobalt price fluctuations is derived from a model developed by the Company to measure how the price changes flow through net revenues and cost of sales. This model incorporates flow across each different type of pricing mechanism and the timing of how the cost of nickel and cobalt flows to cost of sales including the impacts of the commodity price exposure of the Company’s scrap cycle. Management uses its results excluding these nickel and cobalt price impacts to evaluate its operating performance.
