Manitowoc reports Net Sales of $329.2
million; Adjusted EBITDA(1) of $16.3 million
The Manitowoc Company, Inc. (NYSE: MTW), (the “Company” or
“Manitowoc”) a leading global manufacturer of cranes and lifting
solutions, today reported a first-quarter net loss of $7.8 million,
or $0.22 per diluted share. First-quarter adjusted net loss(1) of
$6.3 million, or $0.18 per diluted share, declined $9.0 million
year-over-year. First-quarter adjusted net loss included $4.0
million of other expense – net, or $0.11 per diluted share,
primarily related to foreign currency losses. The Company also
reported net sales of $329.2 million and adjusted EBITDA(1) of
$16.3 million, or 5.0% of sales.
First-quarter orders of $375.0 million declined 15.0% from the
prior year. Orders were unfavorably impacted by approximately $5.1
million due to changes in foreign currency exchange rates. Backlog
as of March 31, 2020 totaled $520.9 million.
As of March 31, 2020, the Company had total liquidity of $382.0
million, including $103.6 million of cash, $244.2 million of
borrowing capacity on its Asset Based Lending revolving credit
facility and $38.2 million of availability on its non-committed
European overdraft lines. During the quarter, the Company did not
borrow on its Asset Based Lending revolving credit facility.
“Our first-quarter adjusted EBITDA of $16.3 million was in line
with our planned expectations, despite the unprecedented conditions
created by the COVID-19 pandemic. This was made possible by the
extraordinary commitment of our talented and resolute team. During
this pandemic, our primary goal remains unchanged, ensuring the
safety, health and well-being of all our employees, their families,
our suppliers and customers. Our dedicated teams are working hard
to deliver cranes and provide essential parts and services, and I
could not be prouder of their commitment to our high standards
while balancing personal challenges. We are grateful for the
efforts our healthcare providers and first responders are making,
and we are proud to support these front-line professionals by
committing $100,000 from The Manitowoc Company Foundation in the
fight against COVID-19,” commented Barry L. Pennypacker, President
and Chief Executive Officer of The Manitowoc Company, Inc.
“While we have remained operational in the U.S., our major
facilities in Europe began closing in mid-March which delayed our
ability to ship products. It is unclear how events unfold from
here, however with ample liquidity and no significant debt
maturities until 2026 we are well positioned to weather
circumstances like this crisis. We continue to analyze all of our
costs and take appropriate actions. We have substantially cut
discretionary spending, while eliminating salary increases across
the enterprise, including executives and board members. Furloughs,
as well as temporary plant shutdowns, are also being planned based
upon our order rates. In order to proactively manage our liquidity,
we are significantly cutting our capital spending this year as well
as suspending our share buyback program. Manitowoc entered this
uncertain period as a more agile company and market leader with a
strong balance sheet, and I am confident that we will emerge
stronger when end markets successfully recover,” concluded
Pennypacker.
2020 Outlook
Due to uncertainty related to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Company
withdrew guidance on March 27, 2020 and is not providing a
financial outlook for 2020 at this time. While Manitowoc, its
suppliers and customers operations have begun to resume activity,
the Company does expect a significant impact to its second quarter
and full year results due to the magnitude of supply chain and
business disruptions. For now, the Company anticipates weaker
demand levels to continue in the near term. In response to these
challenges, the Company has reduced its production levels and
initiated a set of cost reduction actions and will continue to
closely monitor market conditions and adjust its plans
accordingly.
