KOKOMO, Ind., Aug. 03, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Haynes International, Inc. (NASDAQ GS: HAYN) (the “Company”), a leading developer, manufacturer and marketer of technologically advanced high-performance alloys, today reported financial results for its third fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2023. In addition, the Company announced that its Board of Directors has authorized a regular quarterly cash dividend of $0.22 per outstanding share.

“Based on our team’s rapid response to the June cybersecurity incident, we were able to contain the impact to within our third quarter.  We are now producing at very high levels at each of our facilities”, said Michael L. Shor, President and Chief Executive Officer. “We anticipate that our fourth quarter volume shipped will be the best of the fiscal year.  A key strength of our Company continues to be our talented and dedicated workforce, and we are pleased with the recently ratified five year labor agreement at our Kokomo facility.” 

3^rd Quarter Results

Net Revenues.   Net revenues were $143.9 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2023, an increase of 10.6% from the same period of fiscal 2022 due to an increase in product average selling price per pound of $3.64 or 13.4%. The increase in product average selling price per pound largely reflects price increases and other sales factors, which increased the product average selling price per pound by approximately $5.76. It also includes a favorable product mix, which increased product average selling price per pound by approximately $0.26. Partially offsetting these increases were lower market prices of raw materials, which decreased product average selling price per pound by approximately $2.38. The decrease in pounds sold is due to lower shipments of product later in the quarter because of a cybersecurity incident that caused disruption in our manufacturing locations. The reduction in pounds sold is largely attributable to the reduction in the chemical processing market as we have focused our production away from some of our lower-value alloys towards our higher-value products more commonly found in aerospace and industrial gas turbines.      

Cost of Sales. Cost of sales was $117.8 million, or 81.9% of net revenues, in the third quarter of fiscal 2023 compared to $96.9 million, or 74.5% of net revenues, in the same period of fiscal 2022. Cost of sales as a percentage of revenues in the third quarter of fiscal 2023 was higher than third quarter of fiscal 2022 due to higher raw material prices included in cost of sales relative to the impact of raw material price adjustors in selling prices.

Gross Profit.   Gross profit was $26.1 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2023, a decrease of $7.2 million from the same period of fiscal 2022. Gross profit in the third quarter of fiscal 2023 decreased compared to the same quarter of the prior year as gross profit in the third quarter of fiscal 2023 was adversely impacted by higher raw material prices included in cost of sales relative to the impact of raw material price adjustors in selling prices, which decreased gross profit. In the third quarter of fiscal 2022, gross profit benefited from lower raw material prices included in cost of sales relative to the impact of raw material price adjustors in selling prices, which increased gross profit. Additionally, lower volumes shipped in the third quarter of fiscal 2023 due to the cybersecurity incident resulted in a lower absorption of fixed costs.

Selling, General and Administrative Expense.   Selling, general and administrative expense was $11.8 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2023, similar to the same period of fiscal 2022. The decrease as a percent of net revenues from 9.1% to 8.2% for selling, general and administrative expense was largely driven by higher net revenues as spend in the third quarter of fiscal 2023 was consistent with the third quarter of fiscal 2022.  

Research and Technical Expense. Research and technical expense was $1.0 million, or 0.7% of net revenue, for the third quarter of fiscal 2023, compared to $1.0 million, or 0.7% of net revenue, in the same period of fiscal 2022.

Operating Income.   The above factors, including the impacts from raw material prices in selling prices differing from raw material prices included in cost of sales and lower volumes due to the cybersecurity incident, led to a decrease in operating income to $13.2 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2023 compared to $20.4 million in the same period of fiscal 2022.

Nonoperating retirement benefit expense.   Nonoperating retirement benefit expense was a benefit of $0.4 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2023 compared to a benefit of $1.1 million in the same period of fiscal 2022. The lower benefit recorded in nonoperating retirement benefit was primarily driven by an increase in the discount rate used in the actuarial valuation of the U.S. pension plan liability as of September 30, 2022 which resulted in a higher interest cost component of nonoperating retirement benefit expense (income) in the third quarter of fiscal 2023 when compared to the third quarter of fiscal 2022. Partially offsetting the higher interest cost was the amortization of the actuarial gains of the U.S. pension plan liability in the second quarter of fiscal 2023.

Income Taxes.   Income tax expense was $2.7 million during the third quarter of fiscal 2023, a difference of $2.5 million from expense of $5.1 million in the same period of fiscal 2022, driven primarily by a difference in income before income taxes of $9.3 million. Income tax expense in the third quarter of fiscal 2023 as a percentage of income before income taxes was 23.5% as compared to 24.8% in the third quarter of fiscal 2022. The decrease was largely driven by a higher utilization of foreign tax credits in fiscal 2023.

Net Income. As a result of the above factors, net income in the third quarter of fiscal 2023 was $8.8 million, compared to $15.6 million in the same period of fiscal 2022.

Cybersecurity Incident

As previously disclosed, the Company began experiencing a network outage indicative of a cybersecurity incident on June 10, 2023. Upon detection of the incident, the Company engaged third-party specialists to assist in investigating the source of the outage, determine its potential impact on the Company’s systems, and securely restore full system functionality. On June 21, 2023, less than 2 weeks after the incident began, the Company announced that all manufacturing operations were running and that the Company had substantially restored administrative, sales, financial and customer service functions. Nevertheless, during those 11 days many aspects of the Company’s production were substantially disrupted.

Based on lost production time, the Company estimates that net revenues for the quarter were impacted by roughly $18 - $20 million resulting in net sales for the third quarter of $143.9 million. The lower production level also impacted efficiency and absorption of fixed costs which compressed the gross margin percentage for the quarter and impacted earnings. Also impacting earnings are the costs related to the investigation and restoration efforts. In total, the Company currently estimates the full impact of this event to be approximately $0.40 - $0.45 on diluted earnings per share. In addition, the estimated headwind from raw material fluctuations, primarily Cobalt, lowered diluted earnings per share an additional $0.09 resulting in a diluted earnings per share of $0.68 for the third quarter of fiscal 2023.

Volumes and Pricing

Volume shipped in the third quarter of fiscal 2023 was 4.4 million pounds which is 2.5% lower than the third quarter of the prior fiscal year and 5.1% lower sequentially from the second quarter of fiscal 2023. The lower volumes were primarily a result of the cybersecurity incident which during an 11-day period substantially disrupted many aspects of the Company’s production during the last month of the quarter as discussed above. Volumes shipped into the aerospace market remained solid despite the cyber-related disruption. Aerospace volume increased 10.9% along with a 14.5% increase in aerospace average selling price, resulting in a 27.0% or $16.5 million aerospace revenue increase compared to the prior year. The volume increase was primarily driven by the single-aisle commercial aircraft recovery. Similarly, industrial gas turbine (IGT) volumes increased 20.3% partially offset by a 2.7% decrease in the IGT average selling price, which resulted in a 17.0% or $4.1 million IGT revenue increase compared to the prior year. Volumes in the chemical processing industry (CPI) decreased by 47.6%. However, CPI average selling price increased 39.7%, which resulted in a 26.8% or $6.5 million CPI revenue decrease compared to the prior year. Other markets revenue decreased 7.6%, however other revenue increased by 11.8%. Decreases in CPI and Other Markets were impacted by the cybersecurity incident as well as mix management actions related to low-margin commoditized products.

The Company has an ongoing strategy of increasing margins. This is achieved by reducing processing costs as well as increasing pricing for the high-value, differentiated products and services it offers. The Company implemented multiple price increases for contract and non-contract business as market conditions improved and in response to higher inflation. Customer long-term agreements typically have adjustors for specific raw material prices and for changes in the producer price index to help cover general inflationary items. The product average selling price per pound in the third quarter of fiscal 2023 was $30.87, which is a 13.4% increase year-over-year, primarily due to the noted price increases and raw material adjustors  

Gross Profit Margin Trend Performance

The Company has made a significant strategic effort to improve gross margins over the past few years. As a result of this strategy, the Company reduced the volume breakeven point by over 25%. The Company previously struggled to be profitable at roughly 5.0 million pounds. With the current product mix, the Company can generate profits at lower volumes as first demonstrated in the third quarter of fiscal 2021, producing a positive net income at only 3.7 million pounds shipped.

Gross profit margin was 18.1% in the third quarter of fiscal 2023 compared to 25.5% in the same period last year and 20.2% in second quarter of fiscal 2023. The gross margin percentage was negatively impacted this quarter by the cybersecurity incident estimated at roughly two percentage points. Volatility of raw materials, specifically nickel and cobalt, have impacted gross margins. During fiscal 2022 this impact was favorable due to rising raw material prices which increased gross margins; however, in fiscal 2023 this impact was unfavorable due to decreasing raw material prices which lowered gross margins. The estimated impact from raw material volatility in each quarter of fiscal 2023 was a headwind of $5.6 million in the first quarter that compressed gross margin percentage by approximately 4.2%, a headwind of $1.7 million in the second quarter that compressed gross margin percentage by approximately 1.1% and a headwind of $1.5 million in the third quarter that compressed gross margin percentage by approximately 1.1%. This compares to the previous year’s estimated favorable impact of raw material prices in the third quarter of fiscal 2022 of approximately $4.1 million which increased gross margin percentage by approximately 3.1%.

Backlog

The Company continued to experience high levels of order entry over the past quarter, predominately in the aerospace and industrial gas turbine markets. The Company established another record backlog of $468.1 million as of June 30, 2023, an increase of $21.4 million, or 4.8% from the second quarter of fiscal 2023 and an increase of $130.0 million, or 38.4%, from the same period of last year. In addition, the backlog has increased for 27 consecutive months. Backlog pounds increased 3.2% during the third quarter to approximately 14.6 million pounds and increased by 20.7% from the third quarter of fiscal 2022.

Capital Spending

During the first nine months of fiscal 2023, capital investment was $11.8 million, and total planned capital expenditures for fiscal 2023 are expected to be between $16.0 million and $18.0 million.

Working Capital

Controllable working capital, which includes accounts receivable, inventory, accounts payable and accrued expenses, was $426.2 million as of June 30, 2023, an increase of $47.9 million, or 12.7%, from $378.3 million as of September 30, 2022. The increase resulted primarily from inventory increasing by $54.1 million and accounts payable and accrued expenses decreasing by $1.0 million, partially offset by accounts receivable decreasing by $7.2 million during the first nine months of fiscal 2023.

Liquidity

The Company had cash and cash equivalents of $12.9 million as of June 30, 2023 compared to $8.4 million as of September 30, 2022.  Additionally, the Company had $98.7 million of borrowings against the $200.0 million line of credit outstanding with remaining capacity available of $101.3 million as of June 30, 2023, putting total liquidity at $114.2 million.

Net cash used in operating activities in the first nine months of fiscal 2023 was $6.1 million compared to net cash used in operating activities of $57.6 million in the first nine months of fiscal 2022. The decrease in cash used in operating activities in the first nine months of fiscal 2023 was driven by an increase in inventory of $47.2 million as compared to an increase of $98.9 million during the same period of fiscal 2022 and a decrease in accounts receivable of $11.0 million as compared to an increase of $24.3 million during the same period of fiscal 2022. This was partially offset by a decrease in accounts payable and accrued expenses of $4.6 million during the first nine months of fiscal 2023 as compared to an increase of $18.0 million during the same period of fiscal 2022, a difference of $22.7 million.

Net cash used in investing activities was $11.8 million in the first nine months of fiscal 2023, which was higher than net cash used in investing activities of $11.5 million during the same period of fiscal 2022 due to higher additions to property, plant and equipment.

Net cash provided by financing activities was $21.3 million in the first nine months of fiscal 2023, a decrease of $10.2 million from cash provided by financing activities of $31.5 million during the first nine months of fiscal 2022. This difference was primarily driven by a net borrowing of $23.9 million against the revolving line of credit during the first nine months of fiscal 2023 compared to a net borrowing of $46.5 million during the same period of fiscal 2022. This was partially offset with proceeds from the exercise of stock options of $8.2 million during the first nine months of fiscal 2023 as compared to proceeds from exercise of stock options of $0.3 million during the same period of fiscal 2022 and lower share repurchases of $0.9 million in the first nine months of fiscal 2023 as compared to $6.8 million during the same period of fiscal 2022. Dividends paid of $8.4 million during the first nine months of fiscal 2023 were higher than dividends paid of $8.3 million during the same period of fiscal 2022.

Dividend Declared

On August 3, 2023, the Company announced that the Board of Directors declared a regular quarterly cash dividend of $0.22 per outstanding share of the Company’s common stock. The dividend is payable September 15, 2023 to stockholders of record at the close of business on September 1, 2023. Any future dividends will be at the discretion of the Board of Directors.

Guidance

The cyber-related revenue impact is expected to be made up over the next few quarters into fiscal 2024. The Company has regained good momentum with the flow of orders at each of its operating locations and expects fourth quarter fiscal 2023 net revenues and earnings to be the highest of fiscal 2023.  Fourth quarter earnings are expected to be unfavorably impacted by additional headwinds from the continued reduction in the price of both nickel and cobalt.

Adjusted Gross Profit Margin – Excluding estimated impact of nickel and cobalt fluctuations

Management believes that Gross profit margin – Excluding estimated impact of nickel and cobalt fluctuations provides a relevant indicator of the Company’s profitability by eliminating the impact of fluctuating impacts of nickel and cobalt prices which can compress or expand gross profit margin. The estimated gross margin impact from nickel and cobalt price fluctuations is derived from a model developed by the Company to measure how the price changes flow through net revenues and cost of sales.  This model incorporates flow across each different type of pricing mechanism and the timing of how cost of nickel and cobalt flow to cost of sales including the impacts of the commodity price exposure of our scrap cycle. Management uses its results excluding these nickel and cobalt impacts to evaluate its operating performance.
