Management Comments
"We continued to see upward momentum in our
emerging growth products with strength in welding, primarily in
e-mobility applications, cleaning, solar cell manufacturing,
medical and 3D printing applications in the third quarter," said
Dr. Eugene Scherbakov, IPG Photonics' Chief Executive Officer. "The
operating environment remains challenging, including currency
headwinds, softer general industrial demand in Europe and
Covid-related restrictions in China. At the same time, we are
seeing accelerating investments in lithium-ion batteries used in
electric vehicles globally and expect to benefit from continued
higher sales to EV applications in the next several years.
Additionally, our medical sales nearly doubled compared to the same
period last year as we are focusing on diversifying revenues across
end markets and applications and reducing cyclical sensitivity of
the business."
Financial Highlights
Third quarter revenue of $349 million decreased
8% year over year. The strong U.S. dollar reduced revenue by
approximately $26 million or 7% compared to the same period
last year. Materials processing sales accounted for 90% of total
revenue and decreased 10% year over year with higher sales in
welding, cleaning and solar cell applications offset by lower
revenue in cutting applications in China and Europe. Sales into
Other applications increased 10% year over year, driven by the
strength in medical, partially offset by lower revenue following
the divestiture of the telecom transmission product lines and lower
sales in advanced applications. Emerging growth products sales
accounted for 43% of total revenue.
Revenue in high power continuous wave (CW)
lasers declined 14% year over year due to lower demand in high
power cutting applications, which was partially offset by strong
growth in welding. Sales of pulsed lasers declined 6% compared with
the prior year due to lower demand in cutting and marking
applications, partially offset by growth in solar cell
manufacturing and cleaning applications. By region, sales increased
1% in North America and decreased 13% in Europe, 14% in China and
21% in Japan on a year-over-year basis.
Earnings per diluted share (EPS) of $1.47
increased 5% year over year. The gain on sale of the telecom
transmission business increased operating income by $22 million and
benefited diluted EPS by $0.32, which was slightly offset by a
restructuring charge of $1 million or $0.01 per diluted share, also
related to the telecom business. Foreign exchange transaction gains
increased operating income by less than $1 million. The effective
tax rate in the quarter was 21%, benefiting from certain discrete
items. During the third quarter, IPG generated $76 million in cash
from operations. Capital expenditures were $25 million and stock
repurchases were $71 million in the quarter.
Business Outlook and Financial Guidance
“Third quarter book-to-bill was slightly above
one as higher bookings for emerging growth products across most
geographies helped to offset some of the weaknesses in European and
Chinese cutting markets. Despite increased global economic
uncertainty, we believe that macro trends such as e-mobility,
investments in renewable energy and automation as well as focus on
energy efficiency due to increased energy costs should continue to
drive higher demand for our lasers," concluded Dr. Scherbakov.
For the fourth quarter of 2022, IPG expects
revenue of $300 to $330 million. The Company expects the fourth
quarter tax rate to be approximately 25%. IPG anticipates
delivering earnings per diluted share in the range of $0.70 to
$1.00. The fourth quarter guidance range is reduced by
approximately $28 million due to foreign currency headwinds that
are related to the current strength of the U.S. dollar as compared
to the fourth quarter of 2021.
As discussed in more detail in the "Safe Harbor"
passage of this news release, actual results may differ from this
guidance due to various factors including, but not limited to,
trade policy changes and trade restrictions with Russia, the
COVID-19 pandemic, product demand, order cancellations and delays,
competition, tariffs, currency fluctuations and general economic
conditions. This guidance is based upon current market conditions
and expectations, and is subject to the risks outlined in the
Company's reports filed with the SEC, and assumes exchange rates
relative to the U.S. dollar of Euro 1.02, Russian ruble 57,
Japanese yen 145 and Chinese yuan 7.10, respectively.
