TORONTO, Aug. 06, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Martinrea International Inc. (TSX : MRE), a diversified and global automotive supplier engaged in the design, development and manufacturing of highly engineered, value-added Lightweight Structures and Propulsion Systems, today announced the release of its financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2024, and declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.05 per share.

SECOND-QUARTER HIGHLIGHTS

• Total sales of $1,301.8 million, production sales of $1,263.7 million.
• Diluted net earnings per share of $0.54 and Adjusted Net Earnings per Share⁽¹⁾ of $0.58.
• Adjusted Operating Income Margin⁽¹⁾ of 6.3%.
• Adjusted EBITDA⁽¹⁾ of $166.1 million, a new quarterly record for the Company.
• Free Cash Flow⁽¹⁾ (excluding principal payments of IFRS-16 lease liabilities) was $51.7 million, a notable improvement over $26.5 million generated in the second quarter of 2023.
• Net debt-to-Adjusted EBITDA⁽¹⁾ ratio, excluding the impact of IFRS 16, ended the quarter at 1.49x.
• New business awards of approximately $125 million in annualized sales at mature volumes.
• Quarterly cash dividend of $0.05 per share declared.

OVERVIEW

Pat D’Eramo, Chief Executive Officer, stated: “Our second quarter financial results were strong, with a continued improvement in most metrics quarter over quarter, and better Free Cash Flow⁽¹⁾. We continue to perform well operationally. Supply constraints, inflationary cost pressures, and tight labour markets are generally improving, and we are mitigating the impact of these issues, as well as the slower-than-expected ramp up in electric vehicle programs across our industry, through commercial negotiations. I am happy with the progress we are making on this front. Our business is well-positioned for the long term. Interest rates are already coming down in Canada and seem likely to come down in the United States. This should help to improve vehicle affordability, which bodes well for future production volumes and sales. Our business is largely agnostic to propulsion type, which enables us to adapt to any mix of vehicles over time, and our North American-centric orientation and limited footprint in China is a positive in the context of the current geopolitical environment.”

He continued: “I am pleased to announce that we have been awarded new business representing $125 million in annualized sales at mature volumes, consisting of $75 million in Lightweight Structures with multiple customers including Volvo, Honda, Mercedes-Benz, General Motors and others, and $50 million in Propulsion Systems, with Ford.”

Fred Di Tosto, President, stated: “Our financial metrics are among the best in our industry, with operating margins and Free Cash Flow⁽¹⁾ generation at the high end of our peer group. This is a notable achievement, and I am very proud of our team in delivering this performance. As previously announced, I have stepped away from the Chief Financial Officer role and I continue to serve the company as President, overseeing the operations and some of the more strategic aspects of the business. It has been an honour serving as Chief Financial Officer for the last 13 years, and it continues to be an honour to serve as President. I am confident that the finance function remains in strong hands under Peter Cirulis’ leadership.”

Peter Cirulis, Chief Financial Officer, stated: “We are pleased with our financial performance in the second quarter. We are driving a healthy level of Free Cash Flow⁽¹⁾ from the business , our balance sheet is in great shape, and we are executing on our capital allocation priorities. Second quarter Adjusted EBITDA⁽¹⁾ of $166.1 million set a new quarterly record for the Company, and Adjusted Operating Income Margin⁽¹⁾ increased quarter over quarter, coming in at 6.3%. Second quarter sales, excluding tooling sales of $38.1 million, were $1,263.7 million, and diluted net earnings per share and Adjusted Net Earnings per Share⁽¹⁾ were $0.54 and $0.58, respectively. Free Cash Flow⁽¹⁾ (excluding principal payments of IFRS-16 lease liabilities) of $51.7 million improved year over year, mainly reflecting a lower level of capital spending. We continue to expect a solid year of Free Cash Flow⁽¹⁾ in 2024, weighted to the back half of the year, similar to 2023.”

He continued: “Net Debt⁽¹⁾ (excluding IFRS-16 lease liabilities) declined by approximately $4 million quarter over quarter, to $852.1 million, reflecting the strong Free Cash Flow⁽¹⁾, partially offset by some cash restructuring costs, our regular dividend payment, and significant share buyback activity during the quarter. Our Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDA⁽¹⁾ ratio (excluding the impact of IFRS 16) ended the quarter at 1.49x, inline with our long-term target range of 1.5x or better.”

Rob Wildeboer, Executive Chairman, stated: “As my colleagues noted, we are executing well operationally and financially, and allocating capital with a view to maximizing returns for our stakeholders. We repurchased approximately 2.0 million shares for cancellation under our normal course issuer bid (NCIB) during the quarter, representing about 2.5% of the outstanding shares of the Company. Total cash spent on share repurchases in the quarter was approximately $24.0 million. We intend to continue to buy back some stock at these levels. In terms of allocating capital, we will consider anything that makes Martinrea better, but not at the expense of our strong financial status. We believe consistent Free Cash Flow⁽¹⁾ generation is the path to a higher valuation. On behalf of the executive management team, we would like to thank our people for their hard work in delivering a solid quarterly performance, as well as our shareholders and other stakeholders for their continued support.”

Additional information about the Company, including the Company’s Management Discussion and Analysis of Operating Results and Financial Position for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 (“MD&A”), the Company’s interim condensed consolidated financial statements for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 (the “interim financial statements”) and the Company’s Annual Information Form for the year ended December 31, 2023 can be found at www.sedarplus.ca.   

OVERALL RESULTS

Results of operations may include certain items which have been separately disclosed, where appropriate, in order to provide a clear assessment of the underlying Company results. In addition to IFRS measures, management uses non-IFRS measures in the Company’s disclosures that it believes provide the most appropriate basis on which to evaluate the Company’s results.

The following tables set out certain highlights of the Company’s performance for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023. Refer to the Company’s interim financial statements for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 for a detailed account of the Company’s performance for the periods presented in the tables below.

*Non-IFRS Measures

The Company prepares its interim financial statements in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards ("IFRS"). However, the Company considers certain non-IFRS financial measures as useful additional information in measuring the financial performance and condition of the Company. These measures, which the Company believes are widely used by investors, securities analysts and other interested parties in evaluating the Company’s performance, do not have a standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS and therefore may not be comparable to similarly titled measures presented by other publicly traded companies, nor should they be construed as an alternative to financial measures determined in accordance with IFRS. Non-IFRS measures include “Adjusted Net Income”, “Adjusted Net Earnings per Share (on a basic and diluted basis)”, “Adjusted Operating Income”, "Adjusted EBITDA”, “Free Cash Flow”, "Free Cash Flow (after IFRS 16 lease payments)", and “Net Debt”.

The following tables provide a reconciliation of IFRS “Net Income” to Non-IFRS “Adjusted Net Income”, “Adjusted Operating Income” and “Adjusted EBITDA”:

SALES

Three months ended June 30, 2024 to three months ended June 30, 2023 comparison

The Company’s consolidated sales for the second quarter of 2024 decreased by $59.3 million or 4.4% to $1,301.8 million as compared to $1,361.1 million for the second quarter of 2023. The total decrease in sales was driven by year-over-year decreases in the North America and Europe operating segments, partially offset by a year-over-year increase in the Rest of the World.

Sales for the second quarter of 2024 in the Company’s North America operating segment decreased by $62.5 million or 6.0% to $984.6 million from $1,047.1 million for the second quarter of 2023. The decrease was due to a decrease in tooling sales of $73.7 million, which are typically dependent on the timing of tooling construction and final acceptance by the customer; programs that ended production during or subsequent to the second quarter of 2023, specifically the Dodge Charger/Challenger, Ford Edge, and Chevrolet Bolt; and lower year-over-year OEM production volumes on certain light vehicle platforms, including the Ford Mustang Mach E and Mercedes' new electric vehicle platform (EVA2). These negative factors were partially offset by the launch and ramp up of new programs during or subsequent to the second quarter of 2023, including General Motors' new electric vehicle platforms (BEV3/BET), and the Toyota Tacoma; higher year-over-year OEM production volumes on certain other light vehicle platforms, including the Ford Maverick and General Motors' large pick-up truck and SUV platform; and the impact of foreign exchange on the translation of U.S. denominated production sales, which had a positive impact on overall sales for the second quarter of 2024 of $4.6 million.

Sales for the second quarter of 2024 in the Company’s Europe operating segment decreased by $1.1 million or 0.4% to $287.0 million from $288.0 million for the second quarter of 2023. The decrease was due to lower year-over-year OEM production volumes on certain platforms, including the Mercedes' new electric vehicle platform (EVA2) and an engine block for Ford; programs that ended production during or subsequent to the second quarter of 2023, specifically the BMW Mini; and a decrease in tooling sales of $1.0 million, which are typically dependent of the timing of tooling construction and final acceptance by the customer. These negative factors were partially offset by higher year-over-year OEM production volumes on certain platforms, including an aluminum engine block for Jaguar Land Rover.

Sales for the second quarter of 2024 in the Company’s Rest of the World operating segment increased by $0.6 million or 1.7% to $37.2 million from $36.6 million in the second quarter of 2023. The increase was largely driven by the launch and ramp up of new programs during or subsequent to the second quarter of 2023, specifically the BMW 5-series in China, and an increase in tooling sales of $1.9 million; partially offset by programs that came with the operations acquired from Metalsa in China that ended production during or subsequent to the second quarter of 2023, and lower year-over-year production volumes on the Cadillac CT6 vehicle platform in China.

Overall tooling sales decreased by $71.8 million (including outside segment sales eliminations) to $38.1 million for the second quarter of 2024 from $109.9 million for the second quarter of 2023.

Six months ended June 30, 2024 to six months ended June 30, 2023 comparison

The Company’s consolidated sales for the six months ended June 30, 2024 decreased by $39.2 million or 1.5% to $2,625.7 million as compared to $2,664.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023. The total decrease in sales was driven by year-over-year decreases in the North America and Rest of the World operating segments, partially offset by an increase in sales in Europe.

Sales for the six months ended June 30, 2024 in the Company’s North America operating segment decreased by $72.5 million or 3.6% to $1,948.5 million from $2,021.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023. The decrease was due generally to a decrease in tooling sales of $106.7 million which are typically dependent on the timing of tooling construction and final acceptance by the customer; programs that ended production during or subsequent to the second quarter of 2023, specifically the Dodge Charger/Challenger, Ford Edge, and Chevrolet Bolt; and lower year-over-year OEM production volumes on certain light vehicle platforms, including the Ford Mustang Mach E, Mercedes' new electric vehicle platform (EVA2), and General Motors' Equinox/Terrain. These negative factors were partially offset by the launch and ramp up of new programs, including General Motors' new electric vehicle platforms (BEV3/BET), and the Toyota Tacoma; higher year-over-year production volumes of certain light vehicle platforms including the Ford Escape and Maverick, and General Motors' large pick-up truck and SUV platform; and the impact of foreign exchange on the translation of U.S. denominated production sales, which had a positive impact on overall sales for the six months ended June 30, 2024 of $4.3 million.

Sales for the six months ended June 30, 2024 in the Company’s Europe operating segment increased by $29.5 million or 5.0% to $621.0 million from $591.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023. The increase was due to an increase in tooling sales of $29.8 million, which are typically dependent on the timing of tooling construction and final acceptance by the customer; higher year-over-year OEM production volumes on certain platforms, including aluminum engine blocks for Jaguar Land Rover and Mercedes; and the impact of foreign exchange on the translation of Euro denominated production sales, which had a positive impact on overall sales for the six months ended June 30, 2024 of $4.7 million. These positive factors were partially offset by lower year-over-year production volumes of certain other light vehicle platforms, including the Mercedes' new electric vehicle platform (EVA2), and programs that ended production during or subsequent to the corresponding period of 2023, specifically the BMW Mini.

Sales for the six months ended June 30, 2024 in the Company’s Rest of the World operating segment decreased by $1.5 million or 2.1% to $69.0 million from $70.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023. The decrease was largely driven by programs that came with the operations acquired from Metalsa in China that ended production during or subsequent to the six months ended June 30, 2023, and lower year-over-year production volumes on the Cadillac CT6 vehicle platform in China; partially offset by the launch and ramp up of new programs, specifically the BMW 5-series in China, and an increase in tooling sales of $6.1 million.

Overall tooling sales decreased by $69.8 million (including outside segment sales eliminations) to $104.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 from $174.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023.

GROSS MARGIN

Three months ended June 30, 2024 to three months ended June 30, 2023 comparison

The gross margin percentage for the second quarter of 2024 of 14.1% increased as a percentage of sales by 1.3% as compared to the gross margin percentage for the second quarter of 2023 of 12.8%. The increase in gross margin as a percentage of sales was generally due to:

• productivity and efficiency improvements at certain operating facilities and other improvements;
• contribution from overall higher production sales volume; and
• a decrease in tooling sales which typically earn low margin for the Company.

These factors were partially offset by operational inefficiencies at certain other operating facilities, and a negative sales mix, including additional depreciation expense from recent new program investments.

Overall market related inflationary pressures on labour, material and energy costs, along with offsetting commercial settlements, were generally stable for the quarter on a year-over-year basis.

Six months ended June 30, 2024 to six months ended June 30, 2023 comparison

The gross margin percentage for the six months ended June 30, 2024 of 13.6% increased as a percentage of sales by 0.8% as compared to the gross margin percentage for the six months ended June 30, 2023 of 12.8%. The increase in gross margin as a percentage of sales was generally due to:

• productivity and efficiency improvements at certain operating facilities and other improvements;
• contribution from higher production sales volume; and
• a decrease in tooling sales which typically earn low margin for the Company.

These factors were partially offset by:

• operational inefficiencies at certain other operating facilities;
• an unfavourable impact from a year-over-year change in foreign exchange rates in Mexico; and
• a negative sales mix, including additional depreciation expense from recent new program investments.

Overall market related inflationary pressures on labour, material and energy costs, along with offsetting commercial settlements, were generally stable year-over-year.

ADJUSTMENTS TO NET INCOME

Adjusted Net Income excludes certain items as set out in the following tables and described in the notes thereto. Management uses Adjusted Net Income as a measurement of operating performance of the Company and believes that, in conjunction with IFRS measures, it provides useful information about the financial performance and condition of the Company.

TABLE A

Three months ended June 30, 2024 to three months ended June 30, 2023 comparison

TABLE B

Six months ended June 30, 2024 to six months ended June 30, 2023 comparison

(1)        Restructuring costs

Additions to the restructuring provision during the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 totaled $5.4 million and $11.6 million, respectively, and represent employee-related severance resulting from the rightsizing of certain operations in Germany, Mexico, Canada, and the United States.

(2)        Net gain on disposal of equity investments

On March 24, 2023, Martinrea sold its equity interest in VoltaXplore Inc. ("VoltaXplore) to NanoXplore Inc. ("NanoXplore") for 3,420,406 common shares of NanoXplore at $2.92 per share representing an aggregate consideration of $10.0 million. The sale transaction resulted in a gain on disposal of equity investments during the first quarter of 2023 as follows:

Subsequent to this transaction, the Company no longer holds a direct equity interest in VoltaXplore while its equity ownership interest in NanoXplore increased from 21.1% to 22.7%.

NET INCOME

Three months ended June 30, 2024 to three months ended June 30, 2023 comparison

Net Income, before adjustments, for the second quarter of 2024 decreased by $8.9 million to $41.0 million or $0.54 per share, on a basic and diluted basis, from Net Income of $49.9 million or $0.62 per share, on a basic and diluted basis, for the second quarter of 2023. Excluding the adjustments explained in Table A under “Adjustments to Net Income", Adjusted Net Income for the second quarter of 2024 decreased by $5.5 million to $44.4 million or $0.58 per share, on a basic and diluted basis, from $49.9 million or $0.62 per share, on a basic and diluted basis, for the second quarter of 2024.

Adjusted Net Income for the second quarter of 2024, as compared to the second quarter of 2023, was negatively impacted by the following:

• a year-over-year increase in SG&A expense, as previously explained;
• a $1.1 million loss on the disposal of property, plant and equipment for the second quarter of 2024; and
• a higher effective tax rate (29.4% for the second quarter of 2024 compared to 18.9% for the second quarter of 2023).

These factors were partially offset by the following:

• higher gross margin as previously explained; and
• a net foreign exchange gain of $1.9 million for the second quarter of 2024 compared to a loss of $0.7 million for the second quarter of 2023.

Six months ended June 30, 2024 to six months ended June 30, 2023 comparison

Adjusted Net Income for the six months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2023, was negatively impacted by the following:

• a year-over-year increase in SG&A expense, as previously explained;
• a $2.6 million year-over-year increase in research and development costs driven generally by increased new product and process development activity;
• a $1.2 million loss on the disposal of property, plant and equipment for the six months ended June 30, 2024; and
• a higher effective tax rate (27.0% for the six months ended June 30, 2024 compared to 19.8% for the six months ended June 30, 2023).

These factors were partially offset by the following:

• higher gross margin as previously explained; and
