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 2023.

“Barnes highest priorities remain delivering topline growth and improving operational profitability driven by core business execution and transformational initiatives”, said Thomas J. Hook, President and Chief Executive Officer of Barnes. “During the second quarter, we grew revenues, advanced margins, and generated higher free cash flow as compared to a year ago. While significant work remains to drive commercial and operational excellence, our efforts to integrate our businesses, reduce complexity, and generate enhanced profitability continue to unlock the value embedded in Barnes,” added Hook.

Second Quarter 2023 Highlights

Second quarter 2023 net sales of $339 million were up 6% compared to the prior year period, with organic sales (1) increasing 5%. Foreign exchange had a modest positive impact of approximately 0.5%. Operating income was $26.0 million versus a loss of $28.2 million a year ago. Operating margin was 7.7%. Excluding restructuring & transformation related charges and acquisition transaction costs in the current year quarter, and a goodwill impairment charge and restructuring charges a year ago, adjusted operating income was $43.5 million, up 8%, and adjusted operating margin was 12.8%, up 30 bps. Acquisition transaction costs relate to the previously announced pending MB Aerospace acquisition which is expected to close later this year.

Interest expense in the second quarter of 2023 was $6.5 million, an increase of $3.2 million from the prior year due to a higher average interest rate. Other Income was $2.9 million, an increase of $2.5 million from last year, primarily driven by an increase in non-operating pension income.

The Company’s effective tax rate in the second quarter of 2023 was 22.5% compared to -27.1% in the year ago period (22.8% excluding the goodwill impairment charge) and 64.7% for the full year 2022. The decrease in the second quarter 2023 effective tax rate from the full year 2022 rate is primarily due to the absence of a goodwill impairment charge incurred in 2022, which is not tax deductible for book purposes.

Net income for the second quarter was $17.4 million, or $0.34 per share, compared to a loss of $39.6 million, or -$0.78 per share, a year ago. On an adjusted basis, net income per share of $0.58 was up 4% from $0.56 a year ago. Adjusted net income per share in the second quarter of 2023 excludes $0.19 of restructuring and transformation related charges and $0.05 of acquisition transaction costs.

Year-to-date cash provided by operating activities was $42.5 million versus $8.5 million a year ago primarily due to lower paid incentive compensation and a lower increase in working capital. Free cash flow was a positive $20.9 million compared to a negative $5.0 million last year. Capital expenditures were $21.6 million, an increase of $8.1 million.

A table reconciling non-GAAP to GAAP financial measures, including forward looking outlook information, is presented at the end of this press release.

Segment Performance

Industrial

Second quarter sales were $217 million, up 2% from $212 million in the prior year period. Organic sales increased approximately 2% while favorable foreign exchange increased sales by approximately 1%. Operating profit was $9.4 million versus a loss of $48.7 million in the prior year period. Excluding restructuring and transformation related charges of $13.4 million, adjusted operating profit of $22.8 million was up 17% and adjusted operating margin of 10.5% was up 130 bps. Adjusted operating profit benefited from positive pricing and favorable productivity.

Aerospace

Second quarter sales were $122 million, up 12% from $109 million last year. Aerospace original equipment manufacturing (“OEM”) sales increased 8%, while aftermarket sales increased 18%. Operating profit was $16.6 million, down 19% from $20.6 million in the prior year period. Excluding restructuring and transformation related charges of $0.5 million and acquisition transaction costs of $3.6 million, adjusted operating profit of $20.7 million was flat versus a year ago. Adjusted operating margin was 17.0%, down 190 bps from a year ago. Adjusted operating profit and adjusted operating margin were unfavorably impacted by productivity and product mix within the OEM business, offset in part by the benefits of higher sales volumes.

Aerospace OEM backlog was $805 million at the end of the second quarter, up 2% sequentially from March 2023 and up 7% from a year ago. The Company expects to convert approximately 50% of this backlog to revenue over the next 12 months.

Balance Sheet and Liquidity

Barnes’ balance sheet and liquidity profile remain well-positioned. The Company has liquidity of $75 million in cash and $537 million available under the revolving credit facility, subject to covenants which would have allowed $154 million under our current credit agreements. With respect to the balance sheet, our “Debt to EBITDA” ratio, as defined in our credit agreements, was approximately 2.56 times at quarter end.

2023 Full Year Outlook

Barnes forecasts organic sales growth of 7% to 9% for 2023 with adjusted operating margin in the range of 12.5% to 13.5%. Adjusted earnings are expected to be in the range of $2.15 to $2.30 per share, up 9% to 16% from 2022’s adjusted earnings of $1.98 per share, consistent with our previous outlook. 2023 adjusted earnings per share are anticipated to exclude $0.54 related to the restructuring and transformation related activities announced to date and $0.08 related to the pending MB Aerospace acquisition. Capital expenditures are forecast to be approximately $50 million and cash conversion to be approximately 100% of net income. The adjusted effective tax rate for 2023 is expected to be between 24% and 25%, a reduction from our prior view driven by a change in geographic profit expectations. Aside from the acquisition transaction costs noted in our adjusted earnings, our 2023 outlook excludes any impacts from the pending MB Aerospace acquisition.

Notes:

(1) The Company defines free cash flow as net cash provided by operating activities less capital expenditures. 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 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 Company has excluded the following from its "as adjusted" financial measurements for 2022: 1) charges related to restructuring actions at certain businesses and 2) the goodwill impairment charge recorded in the second quarter of 2022 related to the Automation reporting unit. The tax effects of the restructuring actions and acquisition actions 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.
