Receives Second Production Vehicle Award for the ClimateSense™ Technology
Secured $600 Million in New Automotive Awards (Pro Forma)
Strategic Acquisition Expands Gentherm Medical’s Access to Large and Rapidly Growing Markets
Updates 2022 GuidanceNORTHVILLE, Mich., Aug. 02, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Gentherm (NASDAQ:THRM), the global market leader of innovative thermal management and pneumatic comfort technologies for the automotive industry, today announced its financial results for the second quarter ending June 30, 2022.
Second Quarter Highlights
- Product revenues of $260.7 million decreased 2.0% from $266.0 million in the second quarter of 2021
- Excluding the impact of foreign currency translation, product revenues increased 3.1% year over year
- GAAP diluted earnings per share was $0.21 as compared with $0.74 for the prior-year period
- Adjusted diluted earnings per share (see table herein) was $0.25. Adjusted diluted earnings per share in the prior-year period was $0.85
- Secured new automotive business awards totaling $600 million in the quarter including $190 million secured by Alfmeier Präzision SE prior to acquisition closing
Phil Eyler, the Company's President and CEO, said “Our results for the quarter reflect the extremely challenging operating environment our industry is facing. I am proud of the Gentherm team for the ongoing progress in stringent cost management and negotiating appropriate cost recoveries from customers in the face of unprecedented supply chain disruptions, semiconductor shortages, and inflationary pressure while maximizing performance towards customer needs. In Automotive, we outperformed actual light vehicle production in our key markets by approximately 600 basis points as customer demand for our products continues to grow. In addition, we secured $600 million of new awards from auto makers around the world as the largest global supplier of thermal and pneumatic comfort following the recent closing of the Alfmeier acquisition.
Eyler continued, “I am also pleased to announce that we recently received our second ClimateSenseTM award from a global OEM for our software-driven microclimate platform using an algorithm based on thermophysiology. ClimateSenseTM is a critical part of our long-term strategy and continues to gain interest from global OEMs for significantly reducing power consumption and increasing range all while providing best in class passenger comfort.
“While the difficult market conditions are expected to continue in the near-term, we remain focused on executing against our long-term strategic growth roadmap and returning to high-teens EBITDA margin rate. Gentherm is a pioneer in the application of thermophysiology and now, combined with Alfmeier’s pneumatic massage physiotherapy, the Company is well positioned to continue to lead the way in health, wellness, comfort and energy efficiency solutions to drive long-term shareholder value.”
Acquisition of Jiangmen Dacheng Medical Equipment Co. Ltd.
Dacheng, a privately held company headquartered in Jiangmen, Guangdong Province, China, is a developer and manufacturer of patient temperature management solutions for numerous Chinese and international customers. The acquisition provides Gentherm Medical with a leading commercial and manufacturing presence and well-established reputation in China’s emerging high-growth market for patient warming devices. The acquisition also allows Gentherm Medical to become a private label supplier to existing Dacheng customers, enabled by the expanded product development and high-tech manufacturing capability of the company. Dacheng’s products have regulatory approvals in many countries including China, United States, and Brazil.
“Dacheng is an existing supplier for Gentherm Medical with whom we have developed a strong relationship over many years. This acquisition provides enhanced access to high growth markets including private label opportunities through Dacheng’s innovative patient temperature management devices,” said Steve Fletcher, Senior Vice President and General Manager of Gentherm Medical. “This transaction significantly expands our manufacturing capabilities through added capacity and proprietary automated processes, giving us a manufacturing footprint in both the United States and China. We are excited to welcome Dacheng to the Gentherm team.”
2022 Second Quarter Financial Review
Product revenues for the second quarter of 2022 decreased by $5.3 million, or 2.0%, as compared with the prior-year period. Excluding the impact of foreign currency translation, product revenues increased 3.1% year over year.
Automotive revenues decreased 2.3% year over year. Excluding the impact of foreign currency translation, organic Automotive revenues increased 2.9% year over year primarily due to growth in Steering Wheel Heaters, Battery Performance Solutions, Climate Controlled Seat and Other Automotive. According to IHS Markit’s mid-July 2022 report, actual light vehicle production decreased by 2.6% in the current year’s second quarter when compared with the second quarter of 2021 in the Company’s key markets of North America, Europe, China, Japan and Korea.
Gentherm Medical revenue increased 6.1% year over year. Excluding the impact of foreign currency translation, Medical revenue increased 8.6% year over year primarily as a result of higher Warm Air and UV Treo product sales
See the “Revenues by Product Category” table included below for additional detail.
Gross margin rate decreased to 22.8% in the current-year period, as compared with 29.8% in the prior-year period. The decrease from the prior-year period resulted from higher costs incurred to mitigate the impact of the supply chain disruptions primarily in the form of premium freight and spot buys, inflation associated with wages, material and freight costs, as well as the negative impact of foreign currency translation. These were partially offset by cost recoveries and negotiated lower annual price reductions from customers.
Net research and development expenses of $19.3 million in the 2022 second quarter increased $1.1 million, or 6.0% over the prior-year period, primarily due to increased project-related spending as the Company continues to invest in ClimateSenseTM and Battery Performance Solution.
Selling, general and administrative expenses of $31.9 million in the 2022 second quarter increased $4.7 million, or 17.3%, versus the prior-year period. The year-over-year increase was primarily driven by acquisition related costs.
Acquisition expenses of $3.8 million in the current-year period were $3.0 million higher than the prior-year period as a result of expenses associated with the Alfmeier acquisition. Restructuring expenses of $0.4 million in the current-year period were $1.7 million lower than the prior-year period.
As described more fully in the “Reconciliation of Net Income to Adjusted EBITDA” table included below, the Company recorded Adjusted EBITDA of $21.4 million in the 2022 second quarter compared with $43.7 million in the prior-year period, a decrease of $22.3 million or 51.0%.
Income tax expense in the 2022 second quarter was $3.9 million, as compared with $5.7 million in the prior-year period. The effective tax rate was 35.7% in the 2022 second quarter. The effective tax rate differed from the U.S. Federal statutory rate of 21.0% primarily due to the impact of income taxes on foreign earnings taxed at rates varying from the U.S. statutory rate, and the unfavorable impact of the global intangible low-tax income.
GAAP diluted earnings per share for the second quarter of 2022 was $0.21 compared with $0.74 for the prior-year period. Adjusted diluted earnings per share, excluding acquisition expenses, unrealized currency (gain) losses, non-cash purchase accounting impact and restructuring expenses (see table herein), was $0.25. Adjusted diluted earnings per share in the prior-year period was $0.85.
Guidance
The Company updates its full-year 2022 guidance that was initially provided on its year-end 2021 earnings release on February 17, 2022, based on year-to-date performance and to include the completed acquisition of Alfmeier as of August 1, 2022 and the completed acquisition of Dacheng Medical as of July 13, 2022:
- Product revenues between $1.15 billion and $1.25 billion, based on the current forecast of customer orders, supply chain constraints, estimated recovery of industry-wide semiconductor supply, light vehicle production in the Company’s key markets growing at a low single-digit rate in 2022 versus 2021 and current foreign exchange rates
- Adjusted EBITDA between 10% and 12% of product revenues
- Assumes approximately $100 million of product revenues and high single-digit EBITDA margin rate from the acquisitions
- Full-year effective tax rate between 29% and 31%
- Capital expenditures between $50 million and $60 million

In addition to the results reported in accordance with GAAP throughout this release, the Company has provided here or elsewhere information regarding adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“Adjusted EBITDA”), Adjusted EBITDA margin, adjusted earnings per share (“Adjusted earnings per share” or “Adjusted EPS”), free cash flow, Net Debt and Revenue excluding the impact of foreign currency translation, each a non-GAAP financial measure. The Company defines Adjusted EBITDA as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, deferred financing cost amortization, and other gains and losses not reflective of the Company’s ongoing operations and related tax effects including transaction expenses, debt retirement expenses, impairment of assets held for sale, gain or loss on sale of business, restructuring expense, unrealized currency gain or loss and unrealized revaluation of derivatives. The Company defines Adjusted EBITDA margin as Adjusted EBITDA divided by product revenues. The Company defines Adjusted EPS as earnings adjusted by gains and losses not reflective of the Company’s ongoing operations and related tax effects including transaction expenses, debt retirement expenses, impairment of assets held for sale, gain or loss on sale of business, restructuring expense, unrealized currency gain or loss and unrealized revaluation of derivatives. The Company defines Free Cash Flow as Net cash (used in) provided by operating activities less Purchases of property and equipment. The Company defines Net Debt as the principal amount of all Consolidated Funded Indebtedness (as defined in the Credit Agreement) less cash and cash equivalents. The Company defines Revenue excluding the impact of foreign currency translation as revenue, less the estimated effects of foreign currency exchange on revenue by translating actual revenue using the prior period foreign currency exchange rates.
The Company’s reconciliations are included in this release or can be found in the supplemental materials furnished as Exhibit 99.2 to the Company’s Form 8-K dated August 2, 2022.
In evaluating its business, the Company considers and uses Free Cash Flow and Net Debt as supplemental measures of its liquidity and the other non-GAAP financial measures as supplemental measures of its operating performance. Management provides such non-GAAP financial measures so that investors will have the same financial information that management uses with the belief that it will assist investors in properly assessing the Company's performance on a period-over-period basis by excluding matters not indicative of the Company’s ongoing operating or liquidity results. In evaluating our non-GAAP financial measures, you should be aware that in the future we may incur revenues, expenses, and cash and non-cash obligations that are the same as or similar to some of the adjustments in our presentation of non-GAAP financial measures. Our presentation of non-GAAP financial measures should not be construed as an inference that our future results will be unaffected by unusual or non-recurring items. There also can be no assurance that we will not modify the presentation of our non-GAAP financial measures in the future, and any such modification may be material. Other companies in our industry may define and calculate these non-GAAP financial measures differently than we do and those calculations may not be comparable to our metrics. These non-GAAP measures have limitations as analytical tools, and when assessing the Company's operating performance or liquidity, investors should not consider these non-GAAP measures in isolation, or as a substitute for net income, revenue or other consolidated income statement or cash flow statement data prepared in accordance with GAAP.
Non-GAAP measures referenced in this release and other public communications may include estimates of future Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin and Adjusted EPS. Such forward-looking non-GAAP measures may differ significantly from the corresponding GAAP measures, due to depreciation and amortization, tax expense, and/or interest expense, some or all of which management has not quantified for the future periods.
