UFP Technologies Announces Record Q2 Results

NEWBURYPORT, Mass., July 31, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- UFP Technologies, Inc. (Nasdaq: UFPT), an innovative designer and custom manufacturer of components, subassemblies, products, and packaging primarily for the medical market, today reported net income of $13.6 million or $1.75 per diluted common share outstanding for its second quarter ended June 30, 2024, compared to net income of $11.9 million or $1.55 per diluted common share outstanding for the same quarter in 2023. Sales for the second quarter were $110.2 million compared to sales of $100.0 million in the second quarter of 2023. Net income for the six-month period ended June 30, 2024, was $26.2 million or $3.38 per diluted common share outstanding compared to $21.6 million or $2.81 per diluted common share outstanding for the same period in 2023. Sales for the six-month period ended June 30, 2024, were $215.2 million compared to sales of $197.8 million for the same period in 2023.

“I am very pleased with our Q2 results,” said R. Jeffrey Bailly, Chairman & CEO. “Sales grew 10.1%, driven by strength in the robotic surgery and infection prevention markets. Gross margins grew to 30.0%, due in part to improved manufacturing efficiency and contained fixed overhead costs. And net income grew 14.0% to $13.6 million.”

“We also completed three acquisitions between June 24 and July 15: Marble Medical, AJR Enterprises, and Welch Fluorocarbon. We expect that these collectively will add an estimated $90 million in revenue and $20 million in EBITDA,” said Bailly. “Marble Medical brings expertise in high-speed die cutting, medical stick-to-skin adhesives, and a strategically important 3M/Solventum preferred distributorship. AJR Enterprises brings a strategic leadership position in the growing patient-handling space, as well as expertise in specialty fabrics and a very efficient low-cost manufacturing operation. And Welch Fluorocarbon brings expertise in thin film molding of specialty materials utilized for implantable medical devices.” EBITDA is a non-GAAP measure. See Table 3 for a reconciliation.

“Each of these acquisitions is expected to bring important synergies and make us more valuable to our customers,” Bailly said. “With these additions, along with our strong pipeline of product development business, additional acquisition opportunities, and a new $275 million line of credit, we remain very excited about our future.”
