Barnes Group Inc. (NYSE: B), a global provider of highly engineered products, differentiated industrial technologies, and innovative solutions, today reported financial results for the second quarter 2024.

“For the second quarter, strong Aerospace aftermarket and Molding Solutions revenue growth partially offset lower than expected Aerospace OEM sales, as industry supply chain and productivity constraints continue to temper our Aerospace OEM results," said Thomas J. Hook, President and Chief Executive Officer of Barnes. “These industry factors will impact our overall near-term Aerospace outlook, even as our aftermarket continues to benefit from growing fleet opportunities and synergies from our acquisition of MB Aerospace remain on track. Despite these headwinds, we are making significant progress across the company in transforming Barnes into a higher growth, higher value company, led by a strong Aerospace business and a streamlined Industrial business.”

Second Quarter 2024 Highlights

Sales of $382 million were up 13% versus the same quarter a year ago, with organic growth(1) of 5%. The net beneficial impact of acquisition and divestiture related sales was approximately 8%. Foreign exchange did not have a meaningful impact on sales.

In the quarter, the sales and cash flow expectations for the Automation business unit within the Industrial segment were reduced, which among other factors, resulted in a non-cash impairment charge of $53.7 million contributing to an operating loss of $2.1 million, and operating margin of -0.6%.

Adjusted operating income of $47.6 million was up 9% and adjusted operating margin of 12.4% was down 40 bps. Adjusted operating income excludes the goodwill impairment charge, a $10.2 million pre-tax gain on the sale of the Associated Spring and Hänggi businesses, restructuring and transformation related charges of $5.4 million, MB Aerospace short-term purchase accounting adjustments of $0.7 million, and shareholder advisory costs of $0.1 million. Adjusted EBITDA(2) was $76.5 million, up 14% from a year ago and adjusted EBITDA margin was 20.0%, up 20 bps.

In early April, Barnes closed the divestiture of the Associated Spring and Hänggi businesses, materially reducing its exposure to automotive component manufacturing. The headline price of the transaction was $175 million, and net cash proceeds of approximately $150 million were used to reduce debt.

Interest expense was $20.8 million, up from $6.5 million a year ago, due to higher average borrowings from the purchase of MB Aerospace and a higher average interest rate given the recapitalization of the Company’s debt structure.

The effective tax rate for the quarter was -112% compared with 23% last year primarily driven by the non-deductible goodwill impairment charge and taxes tied to the sale of Associated Spring and Hanggi. On an adjusted basis, the second quarter’s effective tax rate was 31%.

Net loss was $46.8 million, or -$0.91 per share, compared to net income of $17.4 million, or $0.34 per share in the prior year. On an adjusted basis, net income per share of $0.37 was down 36% from $0.58. Adjusted net income per share excludes a $1.05 non-cash goodwill impairment charge, $0.14 of charges inclusive of tax related to the Associated Spring and Hänggi divestiture, $0.08 of restructuring and transformation related charges, and $0.01 of MB Aerospace short-term purchase accounting adjustments.

Year-to-date cash provided by operating activities was $3.1 million versus $42.5 million in the first half of 2023. The decrease from the prior year was primarily due to an increase in working capital and divestiture related income tax payments. Capital expenditures of $29.9 million year-to-date increased $8.2 million over the prior year, driven by investments related to the Company’s restructuring program and investments for growth. Year-to-date free cash flow, adjusted for the tax payments related to the divestiture, was negative $14.5 million.

Segment Performance

Aerospace

Second quarter sales in the Aerospace segment were $218 million, up 79%. Organic sales increased 8%, and sales related to the acquisition of MB Aerospace added 71%. Aerospace original equipment manufacturing (“OEM”) sales increased 75%, while aftermarket sales increased 84%. On an organic basis, OEM sales increased 1%, and aftermarket sales increased 19%. Segment operating profit was $29.3 million, up 77%. Adjusted operating profit of $32.3 million was up 56%, while adjusted operating margin declined 220 bps to 14.8%. Adjusted operating profit excludes restructuring and transformation-related charges of $2.2 million, and MB Aerospace short-term purchase accounting adjustments of $0.7 million. Adjusted operating profit benefited from the contribution of higher organic sales volumes, inclusive of pricing, and the contribution of MB Aerospace sales, partially offset by the amortization of long term acquired intangibles for the MB Aerospace acquisition and lower productivity. Aerospace adjusted EBITDA was $50.4 million, up 64%, and adjusted EBITDA margin was 23.1% versus 25.2% a year ago.

Aerospace OEM backlog ended the second quarter at $1.51 billion, up 3% sequentially from March 2024. The Company expects to convert approximately 40% of this backlog to revenue over the next 12 months.

Industrial

Second quarter sales in the Industrial segment were $164 million, down 24% due to the sale of the Associated Spring and Hänggi businesses. On an organic basis, sales were up 3% from a year ago. Operating loss was $31.5 million versus operating income of $9.4 million in the prior year. Adjusted operating profit was $15.3 million, down 33%, and adjusted operating margin was 9.3%, down 120 bps. Adjusted operating profit reflects the impact of the divested businesses partially offset by positive pricing and Barnes Transformation Office (BTO) cost initiatives. Adjusted operating profit excludes a $53.7 million non-cash goodwill impairment charge, a $10.2 million pre-tax gain on the sale of the divested businesses and restructuring and transformation related charges of $3.2 million. Adjusted EBITDA was $25.1 million, down 28% from a year ago, and adjusted EBITDA margin was 15.3%, down 70 bps.

Balance Sheet and Liquidity

As of June 30, 2024, the Company had $66 million in cash and $419 million available borrowing capacity under its revolving credit facility. The “Net Debt to EBITDA” ratio, as defined in our credit agreements, was 3.48 times, down from 3.62 times at March 31, 2024. Barnes remains focused on achieving a leverage ratio of 3.0x or lower by the end of 2024 and reaffirms its long-term leverage goal of 2.5x by 2025.

Conference Call Information

Barnes will conduct a conference call with investors to discuss the second quarter 2024 results at 8:30 a.m. ET today, July 26, 2024. The public may access the conference through a live audio webcast available on the Investor Relations section of Barnes’ website at www.onebarnes.com.

In addition, the call will be recorded and available for playback from 12:00 p.m. (ET) on Friday, July 26, 2024, until 11:59 p.m. (ET) on Friday, August 2, 2024, by dialing (609) 800-9909; Conference ID 1137078.

Notes:

(1) Organic sales growth represents the total reported sales increase within the Company’s ongoing business less the impact of foreign currency translation and acquisitions and divestitures completed in the preceding twelve months.

(2) While Barnes reports financial results in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), the Company provides additional information with respect to a non-GAAP measure, “Adjusted Earnings Before Interest, Income Tax, Depreciation and Amortization” (Adjusted EBITDA). With the acquisition of MB Aerospace, the largest transaction in Barnes’ history, the Company incurred related expenses, including acquired intangible assets and additional interest expense from the debt-funded acquisition. Accordingly, the Company uses Adjusted EBITDA, among other measures, to monitor our business performance. While EBITDA is not a U.S. GAAP measure, nor is it a substitute for a U.S. GAAP measure, we believe it provides helpful information to investors in understanding the ongoing operating performance of the Company. Investors should consider non-GAAP measures in addition to, not as a substitute for, or as superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Tables reconciling non-GAAP to GAAP financial measures, including forward looking outlook information, are presented at the end of this press release.

Notes:  
(1) The Company defines free cash flow as net cash provided by operating activities less capital expenditures. In 2024, net cash provided by operating activities was negatively impacted by $12.3 million of estimated income tax payments related to the pre-tax gain related to the sale of the Associated Spring™ and Hänggi™ businesses (the "Businesses"). The proceeds from the sale are reflected in investing activities. The Company believes that the free cash flow metric is useful to investors and management as a measure of cash generated by business operations that can be used to invest in future growth, pay dividends, repurchase stock and reduce debt. This metric can also be used to evaluate the Company's ability to generate cash flow from business operations and the impact that this cash flow has on the Company's liquidity.

Notes:
(1) The Company has excluded the following from its "as adjusted" financial measurements for 2024: 1) charges related to restructuring/reduction in force actions at certain businesses and transformation costs (consulting/professional fees related to business and portfolio transformation initiatives), 2) a pre-tax gain related to the divestiture of the Businesses, including $7.1M reflected within operating profit ($10.2 million in the second quarter), $1.5M reflected within other expense, net ($0.2 million in the second quarter) and a $23.7M charge reflected within income taxes ($16.9 million in the second quarter), 3) shareholder advisory costs, 4) short-term purchase accounting adjustments related to its MB Aerospace acquisition, 5) acquisition costs related to the acquisition of MB Aerospace, including $1.6M reflected within interest expense ($0.0 million in the second quarter), and 6) goodwill impairment charge recorded in the second quarter of 2024 related to the Automation reporting unit. The Company has excluded the following from its "as adjusted" financial measurements for 2023: 1) charges related to restructuring/reduction in force actions at certain businesses and business transformation costs (consulting fees related to transformation initiatives), including $27.8M reflected within operating profit ($13.9M in the second quarter) and ($1.1M) reflected within other expense (income), net, for both the year-to-date and quarter-to-date periods and 2) acquisition transaction costs related to the planned acquisition of MB Aerospace. The tax effects of the restructuring related actions, acquisition related actions, and shareholder advisory costs were calculated based on the respective tax jurisdictions and ranged from approximately 15% to approximately 30%. The goodwill impairment charge did not have a tax effect as it is not deductible for book purposes. Management believes that these adjustments provide the Company and its investors with an indication of our baseline performance excluding items that are not considered to be reflective of our ongoing results. Management does not intend results excluding the adjustments to represent results as defined by GAAP, and the reader should not consider it as an alternative measurement calculated in accordance with GAAP, or as an indicator of the Company's performance. Accordingly, the measurements have limitations depending on their use.

Notes:
(1) "Other" includes intersegment sales and items that are included within Other expense (income), net that are not allocated to the Company's reportable business segments.

(2) Depreciation expense in 2024 includes $0.7 million of accelerated depreciation charges related to restructuring actions ($0.0 million related to the second quarter). Depreciation in 2023 includes $2.4 million ($0.8 million related to the second quarter) of similar accelerated depreciation charges.

(3) Amortization expense in 2024 includes $1.3 million ($0.6 million related to the second quarter) of short-term purchase accounting adjustments related to backlog amortization, attributed to the acquisition of MB Aerospace.

(4) The Company defines EBITDA as net income plus interest expense, income taxes, and depreciation and amortization which the Company incurs in the normal course of business; in addition to these adjustments, the Company also excludes the impact of its "as adjusted items" above ("Adjusted EBITDA"). The Company does not intend EBITDA nor Adjusted EBITDA to represent cash flows from operations as defined by GAAP, and the reader should not consider it as an alternative to net income, net cash provided by operating activities or any other items calculated in accordance with GAAP, or as an indicator of the Company's operating performance. Accordingly, the measurements have limitations depending on their use.
