Broadwind Announces Second Quarter 2023 Results

CICERO, Ill., Aug. 14, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Broadwind, Inc. (Nasdaq: BWEN, “Broadwind” or the “Company”), a diversified precision manufacturer of specialized components and solutions serving global markets, today announced results for the second quarter 2023.

SECOND QUARTER 2023 RESULTS
(As compared to the second quarter 2022)

  • Revenue of $50.8 million, +0.8 million y/y
  • Gross Profit of $8.3 million, +$5.9 million y/y
  • GAAP Net Income of $1.4 million, +4.1 million y/y
  • Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA of $5.4 million, +$5.0 million y/y
  • Ratio of net debt to trailing twelve-month Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA of 2.0x as of June 30, 2023
  • Total backlog of $262.2 million, +$169.0 million y/y, as of June 30, 2023

FULL-YEAR 2023 FINANCIAL GUIDANCE

  • Maintaining total revenue guidance in a range of between $205 million and $220 million
  • Increasing Adjusted EBITDA guidance to a range of between $17 million and $19 million

For the three months ended June 30, 2023, Broadwind reported total revenue of $50.8 million, an increase of 2% when compared to the prior-year period. The Company reported GAAP net income of $1.4 million, or $0.07 per diluted share, in the second quarter 2023, compared to a net loss of ($2.7) million, or ($0.13) per basic share, in the second quarter 2022.   The Company reported non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA of $5.4 million in the second quarter 2023, an increase of $5.0 million when compared to the prior-year period. For a reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP metrics, please see the appendix of this release.

During the second quarter, Broadwind benefited from a combination of strong demand across its Gearing and Industrial Solutions businesses, continued price discipline, improved fixed cost absorption, more efficient raw materials procurement, reduced freight expense and benefits derived from advanced manufacturing credits associated with the Inflation Reduction Act (“IRA”), when compared to the prior-year period. This performance was partially offset by planned maintenance at the Company’s Abilene, Texas tower facility during the second quarter, which resulted in reduced plant utilization and lower tower output in the period, as expected.  

Total backlog increased by $169.0 million on a year-over-year basis to $262.2 million in the second quarter 2023, supported by growth across all reporting segments.

As of June 30, 2023, Broadwind had total cash on hand and availability under its credit facility of $15.2 million, as compared to $10.2 million at the end of the second quarter 2022.  

BUSINESS UPDATE

Broadwind has continued to demonstrate strong operational excellence and commercial execution, consistent with a multi-year focus on building a market-leading precision manufacturing platform. Broadwind remains focused on organic growth within both existing and adjacent markets; further revenue mix diversification beyond its core wind business; improved asset optimization; ratable growth in orders and backlog; and disciplined capital management to support the requirements of the business.

  • Capitalize on favorable demand.  For the three months ended June 30, 2023, revenue growth within the Company’s industrial and energy markets was partially offset by decreased activity in the mining and construction markets.  Wind-related revenue declined modestly in the second quarter 2023, versus the prior year period, primarily due to planned maintenance at the Abilene facility.  Non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA increased meaningfully on a year-over-year basis across each reporting segment during the second quarter of 2023.

  • Drive revenue mix diversification. On a trailing twelve-month basis through the end of the second quarter 2023, non-wind revenue increased by nearly 32% on a year-over-year basis to $98.9 million, supported by broad-based share gains across most end-markets. During the second quarter 2023, total non-wind revenue increased 12% on a year-over-year basis to $25.9 million, driven primarily by commercial growth across existing end-markets, together with organic, greenfield expansion in PRS sales.

  • Deliver sustained margin expansion.   In the second quarter 2023, total gross margin rate increased 11.6 percentage points year-over-year to 16.4%, while non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA margin increased 9.8 percentage points to 10.5% in the same period. IRA-related tax credits, improved labor efficiencies and effective cost-management contributed to the year-over-year improvement, partially offset by planned facility maintenance.

  • Drive asset optimization. As of June 30, 2023, Broadwind had secured more than 50% of its optimal tower production capacity across its facilities for the full-years 2023 and 2024. During 2023, the Company expects to further optimize its plant utilization, resulting in improved economies of scale. Broadwind has deployed a lean operating approach across all divisions which includes continuous improvement efforts designed to drive throughput growth and asset optimization. The base load of orders in backlog is expected to allow the Company to focus these efforts on specific manufacturing processes offering the highest return on resources invested.

MANAGEMENT COMMENTARY

“Our balanced value creation strategy continues to prioritize targeted commercial expansion within growing energy transition markets, focused operational excellence and disciplined capital management, consistent with our commitment to driving superior total returns for our shareholders, over the long-term,” stated Eric Blashford, President and CEO of Broadwind. “Our entire organization demonstrated strong execution on our strategy during the second quarter, resulting in year-over-year growth in non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA, improved margin realization and near-record profitability,” stated Eric Blashford, President and CEO of Broadwind.     

“This year, we’ve introduced a series of performance improvement actions designed to drive greater process efficiency, reduce fixed overhead and further optimize our manufacturing base,” continued Blashford. “These actions, together with economic benefit afforded by the IRA’s advanced manufacturing tax credit, have propelled our margins and profitability toward historic highs. Given current activity levels, we anticipate a further acceleration in customer demand across our commercial and industrial markets into the second half of 2023, with expectations for improved wind tower demand during 2024.”

“Disciplined balance sheet management remains a key strategic priority for us,” continued Blashford. “Our net leverage profile improved meaningfully over the last year, with our ratio of net debt to trailing twelve-month non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA declining to 2.0x as of June 30, 2023,” noted Blashford. “In the second half of this year, we intend to reduce inventory levels, positioning the Company to realize improved working capital efficiencies, while reducing our debt balance.”

“Today, we raised our full year 2023 Adjusted EBITDA guidance, with backlog still at near-record levels entering the third quarter,” concluded Blashford. “The overall demand outlook remains stable, while our operations excellence initiatives continue to drive improved cost efficiencies across the organization. As our business becomes increasingly cash generative, we expect to have improved balance sheet optionality with which to pursue investments that enhance our capabilities within complementary, high-value precision manufacturing markets.”

SEGMENT RESULTS

Heavy Fabrications Segment
Broadwind provides large, complex and precision fabrications to customers in a broad range of industrial markets. Key products include wind towers, PRS units and other industrial fabrications, including mining and material handling components and other frames/structures.

Heavy Fabrications segment sales declined 5% to $33.9 million in the second quarter 2023 as compared to the prior-year period, primarily driven by planned maintenance at the Abilene, Texas tower facility that resulted in lower tower production in the period. The segment reported operating income of $3.9 million in the second quarter 2023, as compared to $0.1 million in the prior-year period. Segment non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA was $5.0 million in the second quarter 2023, as compared to $1.2 million in the prior-year period.

Gearing Segment
Broadwind provides custom gearboxes, loose gearing and heat treat services to a broad set of customers in diverse markets, including energy production, surface and underground mining, wind energy, steel, material handling and other infrastructure markets.

Gearing segment sales increased by 9% to $11.0 million in the second quarter 2023, as compared to the prior-year period, primarily driven by increased demand from industrial customers. The segment reported operating income of $0.3 million in the second quarter 2023, compared to an operating loss of ($0.6) million in the prior-year period. The segment reported non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA of $1.0 million in the second quarter 2023, as compared to $0.1 million in the prior-year period.

Industrial Solutions Segment
Broadwind provides supply chain solutions, light fabrication, inventory management, kitting and assembly services, primarily serving the combined cycle natural gas turbine market as well as other clean technology markets.  

Industrial Solutions segment sales increased 24% to $6.3 million in the second quarter 2023, as compared to the prior-year period, primarily driven by increased demand for natural gas turbine content, as industry gas turbine unit sales reached multi-year highs. The segment reported operating income of $0.8 million in the second quarter 2023, compared to an operating income of $0.03 million in the prior-year period.   The segment reported non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA of $1.0 million in the second quarter 2023, as compared to $0.2 million in the prior-year period.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

The Company provides non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA (earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation, amortization, share-based compensation and other stock payments, restructuring costs, impairment charges, proxy contest-related expenses and other non-cash gains and losses) as supplemental information regarding the Company’s business performance. The Company’s management uses this supplemental information when it internally evaluates its performance, reviews financial trends and makes operating and strategic decisions. The Company believes that this non-GAAP financial measure is useful to investors because it provides investors with a better understanding of the Company’s past financial performance and future results, which allows investors to evaluate the Company’s performance using the same methodology and information as used by the Company’s management. The Company's definition of adjusted EBITDA may be different from similar non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies and/or analysts.

S . federal government ; (xvi) our ability to successfully integrate and operate acquired companies and to identify, negotiate and execute future acquisitions ; (xvii) the potential loss of tax benefits if we experience an “ownership change” under Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 , as amended ; (xviii) our ability to utilize various relief options enabled by the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (CARES Act) ; (xix) the limited trading market for our securities and the volatility of market price for our securities ; and (xx) the impact of future sales of our common stock or securities convertible into our common stock on our stock price . These statements are based on information currently available to us and are subject to various risks, uncertainties and other factors that could cause our actual growth, results of operations, financial condition, cash flows, performance, business prospects and opportunities to differ materially from those expressed in, or implied by, these statements including, but not limited to, those set forth under the caption “Risk Factors” in Part I, Item 1 A of our most recently filed Form 10 - K and our other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) .
