BATAVIA, NY, October 25, 2017 – Graham Corporation (NYSE: GHM), a global business that designs, manufactures and sells critical equipment for the oil refining, petrochemical, power and defense industries, today reported financial results for its second quarter and first half year ended September 30, 2017. Graham’s current fiscal year ends March 31, 2018 (“fiscal 2018”).

Net sales in the second quarter of fiscal 2018 were $17.2 million, compared with net sales of $21.1 million in the second quarter of the fiscal year ended March 31, 2017 (“fiscal 2017”). Net income and diluted earnings per share in the fiscal 2018 second quarter were breakeven, compared with $1.3 million, or $0.13 per diluted share, in the prior-year’s second quarter. Excluding restructuring charges, net income for the second quarters of fiscal 2018 and 2017 was $0.2 million and $1.4 million, respectively. On a per diluted share basis excluding restructuring charges, net income was $0.02 and $0.14 for the second quarters of fiscal 2018 and 2017, respectively.

James R. Lines, Graham’s President and Chief Executive Officer, commented, “Given the prolonged market downturn and continued uncertainty, we made the difficult decision during our fiscal second quarter to lower our operating costs by reducing our global workforce by an additional 6%. We anticipate an immediate impact from these actions, with about half of the $1.5 million of annualized cost savings expected this fiscal year.”

He continued, “We remain very diligent in our pursuit of strategic acquisitions to further strengthen Graham, and we believe that our strong balance sheet provides us flexibility to pursue that strategy.”

Second Quarter Fiscal 2018 Sales Summary

(See accompanying financial tables for a breakdown of sales by industry and region)

The decline in sales during the fiscal 2018 second quarter compared with the prior-year quarter was primarily due to a $4.2 million reduction in sales to the power market to $1.9 million, and a $2.0 million reduction in sales to the refining market to $4.7 million. These declines were partially offset by higher sales to the chemical/petrochemical market and the other commercial, industrial and defense markets, which increased by $0.6 million and $1.7 million, respectively, compared with the prior-year quarter.

From a geographic perspective, the second quarter’s sales decrease can primarily be attributed to a $4.3 million decline in sales to the U.S, to $11.1 million. Sales to international markets increased by $0.4 million, to $6.1 million.

Fluctuations in Graham’s sales among geographic locations and industries can vary measurably from quarter-to-quarter based on the timing and magnitude of projects. Graham does not believe that such quarter-to-quarter fluctuations are indicative of business trends, which it believes are more apparent on a trailing twelve month basis.

Second Quarter Fiscal 2018 Operating Performance Review

 

($ in millions except per share data)		Q2 FY18				Q2 FY17				Change
Net sales		$	17.2			$	21.1			$	(3.9	)
Gross profit		$	3.8			$	5.0			$	(1.2	)
Gross margin			22.2	%			23.7	%
Operating profit		$	(0.2	)		$	1.8			$	(2.0	)
Operating margin			-1.1	%			8.3	%
Net income		$	0.0			$	1.3			$	(1.3	)
Diluted EPS		$	0.00			$	0.13			$	(0.13	)
Adjusted net income		$	0.2			$	1.4			$	(1.2	)
Non-GAAP diluted EPS		$	0.02			$	0.14			$	(0.12	)

Second quarter fiscal 2018 gross profit was negatively impacted by lower sales. Gross margin was also negatively impacted by a weaker mix of projects, as well as under-absorption of overhead costs due to lower sales.

Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses of $3.7 million were 16% higher than the prior-year period. SG&A as a percent of sales was 21% in the second quarter of fiscal 2018 compared with 15% in the same prior-year period. The increase was primarily due to insurance proceeds of $0.8 million which benefited the fiscal 2017 second quarter. Excluding this, SG&A expenses in the current quarter were lower than the prior-year period by $0.2 million, almost entirely due to lower sales commissions.

In the second quarter of fiscal 2018, the Company reduced its global headcount by approximately 6% and incurred a $0.3 million pre-tax restructuring charge for severance costs. The annual savings from these reductions are expected to be $1.5 million, half of which is expected to be realized in the second half of fiscal 2018. Graham also incurred a $75 thousand pre-tax restructuring charge in the second quarter of fiscal 2017, reflecting completion of headcount reduction activities which began in fiscal 2017’s first quarter.

To summarize, the decrease in net income during the second quarter compared with the prior-year quarter was primarily driven by lower sales, weaker project mix and the impact of the prior-year insurance proceeds.

Excluding the $0.3 million nonrecurring restructuring charge recorded in the second quarter of fiscal 2018 ($0.2 million net of tax), adjusted net income, a non-GAAP number, was $0.2 million or $0.02 per diluted share.

 

($ in millions)		Q2 FY18				Q2 FY17				Change
Adjusted EBITDA		$	0.7			$	2.4			$	(1.7	)
Adjusted EBITDA margin			4.0	%			11.4	%

Adjusted EBITDA (defined as consolidated net income before interest expense and income, income taxes, depreciation and amortization and a nonrecurring restructuring charge where applicable) during the fiscal 2018 second quarter was also negatively impacted by the factors discussed above.

Graham believes that, when used in conjunction with measures prepared in accordance with GAAP, adjusted net income, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin (Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of sales), which are non-GAAP measures, help in the understanding of its operating performance. Graham’s credit facility also contains ratios based on EBITDA. See the attached tables for additional important disclosures regarding Graham’s use of adjusted net income, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin as well as a reconciliation of net income to Adjusted EBITDA.

First Half Fiscal 2018 Review

 

		YTD FY18				YTD FY17				Change
($ in millions except per share data)
Net sales		$	38.1			$	43.5			$	(5.4	)
Gross profit		$	8.7			$	9.1			$	(0.4	)
Gross margin			22.8	%			21.0	%
Operating profit		$	1.0			$	1.7			$	(0.7	)
Operating margin			2.6	%			3.8	%
Net income		$	0.9			$	1.4			$	(0.5	)
Diluted EPS		$	0.10			$	0.14			$	(0.04	)
Adjusted net income		$	1.2			$	1.8			$	(0.6	)
Non-GAAP diluted EPS		$	0.12			$	0.19			$	(0.07	)

International sales were $12.2 million in the first half of fiscal 2018 and represented 32% of total sales, compared with $11.8 million, or 27% of sales, in the same prior-year period. Sales to the U.S. were $25.9 million, or 68% of first half net sales, in fiscal 2018 compared with $31.7 million, or 73% of fiscal 2017 first half net sales.

The decrease in gross profit was primarily due to lower volume stemming from a 12% reduction sales when compared to the same prior-year period, partially offset by the timing of lower overhead costs.

SG&A in the first half of fiscal 2018 was $7.4 million, up 8% or $0.6 million. As a percent of sales, SG&A was 19% in the first half of fiscal 2018 compared with 16% in the same prior-year period. The increase in SG&A resulted from the same factors that impacted the quarterly comparison.

Excluding the $0.3 million nonrecurring restructuring charge recorded in the first half of fiscal 2018, ($0.2 million net of tax), adjusted net income, a non-GAAP number, was $1.2 million or $0.12 per diluted share.

 

($ in millions)		YTD FY18				YTD FY17				Change
Adjusted EBITDA		$	2.4			$	3.5			$	(1.1	)
Adjusted EBITDA margin			6.4	%			7.9	%

Adjusted EBITDA was impacted by the factors discussed above.

Graham believes that, when used in conjunction with measures prepared in accordance with GAAP, adjusted net income, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin (Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of sales), which are non-GAAP measures, help in the understanding of its operating performance. Graham’s credit facility also contains ratios based on EBITDA.

Capital Readily Available to Pursue Growth Opportunities

Cash, cash equivalents and investments at September 30, 2017 were $72.1 million, down $1.4 million from March 31, 2017. The decrease resulted primarily from lower operating cash flow.

Cash provided by operations in the first half of fiscal 2018 was $0.8 million, compared with $3.3 million in the first half of fiscal 2017. The decrease was primarily the result of timing of working capital utilization and lower net income.

Capital expenditures in the first half of fiscal 2018 were $0.4 million, compared with $0.2 million in the first half of fiscal 2017. The Company expects capital expenditures for fiscal 2018 to be between $2.5 million and $3.0 million. The majority of the Company’s capital investments are expected to be used for productivity enhancements, information technology upgrades and other items.

Dividend payments were $1.8 million in the first half of fiscal 2018, compared with $1.7 million in the first half of 2017.

Graham had neither borrowings under its credit facility, nor any long-term debt outstanding, at September 30, 2017.

Continued Weakness Despite Sequential Increase in Orders

Orders were $17.1 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2018, down 31% from the prior-year’s second quarter. However, second quarter orders were up $6.0 million sequentially from the first quarter of fiscal 2018. In the fiscal 2018 second quarter, orders from U.S. customers were $14.4 million, or 84% of total orders, and orders from international markets were $2.7 million, or 16%. This compares with 74% from the U.S. and 26% from international markets in the second quarter of fiscal 2017.    

Graham expects that the balance between domestic and international orders will continue to be variable between quarters.

Backlog at the end of the second quarter of fiscal 2018 was $73.0 million, relatively flat sequentially from the end of the previous quarter, but down $9.6 million from the end of fiscal 2017.

The Company believes that its backlog mix by industry continues to highlight the success of its diversification strategy to increase sales to the U.S. Navy and the power industry. Backlog by industry at September 30, 2017 was approximately:

 

•

69% for U.S. Navy projects

 

•

15% for refinery projects

 

•

6% for chemical/petrochemical projects

 

•

5% for power projects, including nuclear

 

•

5% for other industrial applications

The expected timing for the Company’s backlog to convert to sales is as follows:

 

•

Within next 12 months:             50% to 55%

 

•

Within 12 to 24 months:           5% to 10%

 

•

Beyond 24 months:                   35% to 40%

Revising FY 2018 Guidance

The Company is revising its fiscal 2018 guidance to reflect continued weakness in its markets:

 

•

Revenue anticipated to be between $75 and $80 million

 

•

Gross margin expected to be between 21% and 23%

 

•

SG&A expense expected to be between $15.0 and $15.5 million

 

•

Effective tax rate anticipated to be between 28% and 30%

Mr. Lines concluded. “Our order activity has remained weak, driving the reduction in our revenue guidance for fiscal 2018. Historically we have been a late cycle business. We are hopeful that we are near the bottom, as strength currently being experienced by early cycle businesses gives us encouragement.”

Non-GAAP Financial Measure:

Adjusted net income is defined as GAAP net income excluding a nonrecurring restructuring charge. Adjusted net income is not a measure determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States, commonly known as GAAP. Nevertheless, Graham believes that providing non-GAAP information such as Adjusted net income is important for investors and other readers of Graham’s financial statements, as it is used as an analytical indicator by Graham’s management to better understand operating performance. Because Adjusted net income is a non-GAAP measure and is thus susceptible to varying calculations, Adjusted net income, as presented, may not be directly comparable to other similarly titled measures used by other companies.

Non-GAAP Financial Measure:

Adjusted EBITDA is defined as consolidated net income before interest expense and income, income taxes, depreciation and amortization and a nonrecurring restructuring charge. Adjusted EBITDA margin is Adjusted EBITDA divided by sales. Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin are not measures determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States, commonly known as GAAP. Nevertheless, Graham believes that providing non-GAAP information such as Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin are important for investors and other readers of Graham’s financial statements, as they are used as analytical indicators by Graham’s management to better understand operating performance. Graham’s credit facility also contains ratios based on EBITDA. Because Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin are non-GAAP measures and are thus susceptible to varying calculations, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin, as presented, may not be directly comparable to other similarly titled measures used by other companies.
