Ducommun Incorporated Reports Fourth Quarter 2022 Results

SANTA ANA, Calif., Feb. 16, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Ducommun Incorporated (NYSE: DCO) (“Ducommun” or the “Company”) today reported results for its fourth quarter and year ended December 31, 2022.

Fourth Quarter 2022 Recap

• Revenue of $188.3 million
• GAAP net income of $8.1 million, or $0.65 per diluted share
• Adjusted net income for the quarter of $10.6 million, or $0.85 per diluted share
• Cash flow from operating activities of $32.1 million
• Backlog* of $961 million
  

“2022 was an acceleration of top-line growth for Ducommun, led by a strong commercial aerospace market along with continued solid contributions by our defense business. It also demonstrated our operational strength managing the supply chain effectively along with the workforce,” said Stephen G. Oswald, chairman, president and chief executive officer. “Quarterly revenue increased double digit by 14% to approximately $188 million, driving full year revenue to be in excess of $700 million for the first time since 2019, and ending at approximately $713 million. Gross margins were 20.5% for the fourth quarter and 20.3% for the full year, a solid showing as we worked our way through the previously announced 2022 restructuring plan which will deliver most of its benefits later in 2023 and 2024.

“Ducommun as well ended the year with a strong backlog of approximately $961 million, with $450 million in commercial aerospace orders, which is up 35% from 2021. Looking ahead to 2023, with both Boeing and Airbus each planning on hiring 10,000 workers or more this year, we anticipate the commercial aerospace market recovery to continue in earnest. We also expect our largest business, defense, to again be solid given the current geopolitical environment and off-loading initiatives. 2022 was certainly a very good year overall for Ducommun and we look forward to 2023 and 2024 as both of our primary markets look to be in excellent shape.”

Fourth Quarter Results

Net revenue for the fourth quarter of 2022 was $188.3 million, compared to $164.8 million for the fourth quarter of 2021. The 14.2% increase year-over-year was primarily due to the following:

• $26.4 million higher revenue within the Company’s commercial aerospace end-use markets due to higher build rates on other commercial aerospace platforms and large aircraft platforms; partially offset by
• $4.7 million lower revenue within the Company’s military and space end-use markets due to lower build rates on military rotary-wing aircraft platforms and other military and space platforms, partially offset by higher build rates on various missile platforms.

Net income for the fourth quarter of 2022 was $8.1 million, or $0.65 per diluted share, compared to $110.8 million, or $9.05 per diluted share, for the fourth quarter of 2021. The decrease in net income year-over-year was primarily due to a gain on sale-leaseback of the Gardena facility that occurred during the fourth quarter of 2021 that did not reoccur in the fourth quarter of 2022 and higher restructuring charges of $2.9 million, partially offset by lower income tax expense of $30.3 million and higher other income, net of $2.3 million. Adjusted net income was $10.6 million, or $0.85 per diluted share, for the fourth quarter of 2022, compared to $10.8 million, or $0.88 per diluted share, for the fourth quarter of 2021. The difference between net income and adjusted net income was primarily due to excluding the gain on the sale-leaseback transaction.

Gross profit for the fourth quarter of 2022 was $38.6 million, or 20.5% of revenue, compared to gross profit of $37.3 million, or 22.6% of revenue, for the fourth quarter of 2021. The decrease in gross margin percentage year-over-year was due to unfavorable product mix and higher other manufacturing costs, partially offset by favorable manufacturing volume.

Operating income for the fourth quarter of 2022 was $9.7 million, or 5.1% of revenue, compared to $11.8 million, or 7.2% of revenue, in the comparable period last year. The year-over-year decrease was primarily due to higher restructuring costs. Adjusted operating income for the fourth quarter of 2022 was $15.2 million, or 8.1% of revenue, compared to $15.3 million, or 9.3% of revenue, in the comparable period last year.

Interest expense for the fourth quarter of 2022 was $3.5 million compared to $2.8 million in the comparable period of 2021. The year-over-year increase was primarily due to higher interest rates, partially offset by a lower outstanding debt balance.

Adjusted EBITDA for the fourth quarter of 2022 was $24.5 million, or 13.0% of revenue, compared to $24.4 million, or 14.8% of revenue, for the comparable period in 2021.

During the fourth quarter of 2022, the net cash provided by operations was $32.1 million compared to $11.7 million during the fourth quarter of 2021. The higher net cash provided by operations year-over-year was primarily due to higher accrued and other liabilities and a gain on sale-leaseback of the Gardena facility that occurred during the fourth quarter of 2021, partially offset by lower net income.

* The Company defines backlog as potential revenue and is based on customer placed purchase orders and long-term agreements (“LTAs”) with firm fixed price and expected delivery dates of 24 months or less. Backlog as of December 31, 2022 was $960.8 million compared to $905.2 million as of December 31, 2021. Under ASC 606, the Company defines performance obligations as customer placed purchase orders with firm fixed price and firm delivery dates. The remaining performance obligations disclosed under ASC 606 as of December 31, 2022 were $853.0 million compared to $761.4 million as of December 31, 2021.

Readers are advised to review the Company’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (which are available from the SEC’s EDGAR database at www.sec.gov).

Note Regarding Non-GAAP Financial Information

This release contains non-GAAP financial measures, including Adjusted EBITDA (which excludes interest expense, income tax expense, depreciation, amortization, stock-based compensation expense, restructuring charges, Guaymas fire related expenses, insurance recoveries related to business interruption, inventory purchase accounting adjustments, loss on extinguishment of debt, other debt refinancing costs, gain on sale-leaseback, and success bonus related to completion of sale-leaseback transaction), non-GAAP operating income and as a percentage of net revenues, non-GAAP earnings, and non-GAAP earnings per share. In addition, certain other prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to current year’s presentation.

Beginning with the first quarter of 2022, the Company changed its GAAP to non-GAAP operating income reconciliation, GAAP to non-GAAP earnings reconciliation, and GAAP to non-GAAP earnings per share reconciliation to exclude the amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets as it is a non-cash item and a significant portion of the purchase price for acquisitions may be allocated to intangible assets that have estimated useful lives of up to 19 years. Exclusion of this non-cash amortization expense allows for the comparison of operating results that are consistent over time for both the newly acquired and long-held businesses and with both acquisitive and non-acquisitive peer companies. As such, the Company modified the prior year's presentation for this item to conform with the current year's presentation.

The Company believes the presentation of these non-GAAP measures provide important supplemental information to management and investors regarding financial and business trends relating to its financial condition and results of operations. The Company’s management uses these non-GAAP financial measures along with the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures in evaluating the Company’s actual and forecasted operating performance, capital resources and cash flow. The non-GAAP financial information presented herein should be considered supplemental to, and not as a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. The Company discloses different non-GAAP financial measures in order to provide greater transparency and to help the Company’s investors to more meaningfully evaluate and compare Ducommun’s results to its previously reported results. The non-GAAP financial measures that the Company uses may not be comparable to similarly titled financial measures used by other companies.

We define backlog as potential revenue and is based on customer placed purchase orders and long-term agreements (“LTAs”) with firm fixed price and expected delivery dates of 24 months or less. The majority of the LTAs do not meet the definition of a contract under ASC 606 and thus, the backlog amount disclosed herein is greater than the remaining performance obligations disclosed under ASC 606. Backlog is subject to delivery delays or program cancellations, which are beyond our control. Backlog is affected by timing differences in the placement of customer orders and tends to be concentrated in several programs to a greater extent than our net revenues. Backlog in industrial markets tends to be of a shorter duration and is generally fulfilled within a three month period. As a result of these factors, trends in our overall level of backlog may not be indicative of trends in our future net revenues.
