CANTON, Ohio, Aug. 3, 2023 /PRNewswire/ — TimkenSteel (NYSE: TMST), a leader in high-quality specialty steel, manufactured components and supply chain solutions, today reported second-quarter 2023 net sales of $356.6 million and net income of $28.9 million, or $0.62 per diluted share. On an adjusted basis(1), second-quarter 2023 net income was $27.6 million, or $0.60 per diluted share, and adjusted EBITDA was $50.5 million.

This compares with sequential first-quarter 2023 net sales of $323.5 million and net income of $14.4 million, or $0.30 per diluted share. On an adjusted basis(1), first-quarter 2023 net income was $20.8 million, or $0.44 per diluted share, and adjusted EBITDA was $36.0 million.

In the same quarter last year, net sales were $415.7 million with net income of $74.5 million, or $1.42 per diluted share. On an adjusted basis(1), second-quarter 2022 net income was $67.4 million, or $1.29 per diluted share, and adjusted EBITDA was $84.2 million.

“Our firm commitment to enhancing safety performance and productivity has enabled us to deliver our second-quarter earnings guidance including sequential improvements in shipments and adjusted EBITDA. Furthermore, we continued the consistent positive operating cash flow trend while investing in the business and maintaining a robust balance sheet,” stated Mike Williams, president and chief executive officer.

“Additionally, our manufactured components product line continues to be an important part of our service offering to customers. During the second quarter, we shipped 2.7 million pieces to automotive customers from our facility in southwest Ohio and our production efficiency has improved from the prior year. Thanks to our team members, we are successfully supporting increased demand for electric vehicle components and to this end, we recently approved a $5 million investment for two additional manufactured component machining lines. I look forward to continuing our positive momentum into the second half of 2023 with an ongoing focus on safety, manufacturing excellence, customer service and advancing our strategic imperatives to drive sustainable through-cycle profitability and cash flows,” concluded Williams.

SECOND-QUARTER 2023 FINANCIAL SUMMARY

  • Net sales of $356.6 million increased 10 percent compared with $323.5 million in the first quarter 2023. The increase in net sales was primarily driven by higher shipments and base sales(1)prices, as well as an increase in average raw material surcharge revenue per ton as a result of higher scrap and alloy prices. Compared with the prior-year second quarter, the decrease in net sales was driven primarily by lower shipments and a reduction in surcharge revenue per ton as a result of lower scrap prices, partially offset by higher base sales(1) prices.
  • Ship tons of 177,500 increased 4,600 tons sequentially, or 3 percent, driven by higher industrial shipments. Customer demand was supported by improved operating performance and a higher level of inventory available for shipment. Compared with the prior-year second quarter, ship tons decreased 15 percent as a result of lower shipments across all end markets.
  • Manufacturing costs increased by $6.8 million on a sequential basis, primarily driven by higher first quarter plant costs being recognized in the second quarter as inventory was sold. As anticipated, melt utilization improved to 75 percent from 73 percent in the first quarter. Compared with the prior-year second quarter, manufacturing costs increased $15.3 million, primarily driven by lower cost absorption given the 75 percent melt utilization rate compared with 84 percent in the same quarter last year. Manufacturing costs were also higher compared with the prior-year second quarter due to the inflationary cost environment and increased maintenance costs.
  • Other income included an insurance recovery of $1.5 million in the second quarter of 2023, compared with a recovery of $9.8 million recognized in the first quarter of 2023, both related to the recovery of certain costs associated with unplanned downtime in the second half of 2022. Given that the second quarter of 2023 insurance recovery related to last year, the $1.5 million insurance recovery has been excluded from adjusted EBITDA.

CASH, LIQUIDITY AND REPURCHASE ACTIVITY

As of June 30, 2023, the company’s cash and cash equivalents balance was $221.9 million. In the second quarter, operating cash flow was $13.3 million, primarily driven by profitability and insurance recoveries partially offset by higher working capital. Total liquidity(2) was $529.9 million as of June 30, 2023.

In the second quarter, the company repurchased approximately 650,300 common shares in the open market at an aggregate cost of $11.4 million. As of June 30, 2023, the company had $52.2 million remaining on its existing share repurchase program.

(1) EBIT is defined as net income (loss) before interest (income) expense, net and income taxes. EBIT is an important financial measure used in the management of the business, including decisions concerning the allocation of resources and assessment of performance. Management believes that reporting EBIT is useful to investors as this measure is representative of the company’s performance.


(2) For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, common share equivalents for shares issuable upon the conversion of outstanding convertible notes (1.7 million shares and 2.1 million shares, respectively) and common share equivalents for shares issuable for equity-based awards (1.8 million shares and 1.9 million shares, respectively) were included in the computation of diluted earnings (loss) per share, as they were considered dilutive. For the convertible notes, the company utilizes the if-converted method to calculate diluted earnings (loss) per share. As such, net income was adjusted to add back $0.2 million and $0.5 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively, of convertible notes interest expense (including amortization of convertible notes issuance costs).


(3) For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, common share equivalents for shares issuable upon the conversion of outstanding convertible notes (4.0 million shares and 4.6 million shares, respectively) and common share equivalents for shares issuable for equity-based awards (2.2 million shares for both respective periods) were included in the computation of diluted earnings (loss) per share, as they were considered dilutive. For the convertible notes, the company utilizes the if-converted method to calculate diluted earnings (loss) per share. As such, net income was adjusted to add back $0.5 million and $1.2 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively, of convertible notes interest expense (including amortization of convertible notes issuance costs).

Adjusted net income (loss) and adjusted diluted earnings (loss) per share are financial measures not required by, or presented in accordance with GAAP. These Non-GAAP financial measures should be considered as a supplement to, and not as a substitute for, the financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP, and a reconciliation of these financial measures to the most comparable GAAP financial measures is presented. Management believes this data provides investors with additional useful information on the underlying operations and trends of the business and enables period-to-period comparability of the company’s financial performance.

(1) For the three months ended June 30, 2023, common share equivalents for shares issuable upon the conversion of outstanding convertible notes (1.7 million shares) and common share equivalents for shares issuable for equity-based awards (1.8 million shares) were included in the computation of as reported and as adjusted diluted earnings (loss) per share, as they were considered dilutive. The total diluted weighted average shares outstanding for the three months ended June 30, 2023 was 47.3 million shares. For the convertible notes, the company utilizes the if-converted method to calculate diluted earnings (loss) per share. As such, net income was adjusted to add back $0.2 million of convertible notes interest expense (including amortization of convertible notes issuance costs).


(2) Adjusted net income (loss) and adjusted diluted earnings (loss) per share are defined as net income (loss) and diluted earnings (loss) per share, respectively, excluding, as applicable, adjustments listed in the foregoing table.


(3) For the three months ended June 30, 2023 the gain on sale or disposal of assets, net, primarily consisted of the small-diameter seamless mechanical tubing machinery and equipment, partially offset by assets removed from service. For the three months ended June 30, 2022 and March 31, 2023, loss on sale or disposal of assets consisted of write-offs of aged assets removed from service.


(4) Business transformation costs consist of items that are non-routine in nature. These costs are primarily related to professional service fees associated with strategic initiatives and organizational changes.


(5) For the three months ended June 30, 2023, June 30, 2022, and March 31, 2023, IT transformation costs were primarily related to professional service fees not eligible for capitalization that are associated specifically with an information technology application simplification and modernization project.


(6) During the second half of 2022, the Faircrest melt shop experienced unplanned operational downtime. TimkenSteel recognized an insurance recovery of $11.3 million related to the unplanned downtime in the first half of 2023, of which $9.8 million was recorded during the first quarter and $1.5 million was recorded in the second quarter. 


(7) Tax effect on above adjustments includes the tax impact related to the adjustments shown above.


(8) For the three months ended June 30, 2022, common share equivalents for shares issuable upon the conversion of outstanding convertible notes (4.0 million shares) and common share equivalents for shares issuable for equity-based awards (2.2 million shares) were included in the computation of as reported and as adjusted diluted earnings (loss) per share, as they were considered dilutive. The total diluted weighted average shares outstanding for the three months ended June 30, 2022 was 52.8 million shares. For the convertible notes, the company utilizes the if-converted method to calculate diluted earnings (loss) per share. As such, net income was adjusted to add back $0.5 million of convertible notes interest expense (including amortization of convertible notes issuance costs).


(9) For the three months ended March 31, 2023, common share equivalents for shares issuable upon the conversion of outstanding convertible notes (2.6 million shares) and common share equivalents for shares issuable for equity-based awards (2.1 million shares) were included in the computation of as reported and as adjusted diluted earnings (loss) per share, as they were considered dilutive. The total diluted weighted average shares outstanding for the three months ended March 31, 2023 was 48.7 million shares. For the convertible notes, the company utilizes the if-converted method to calculate diluted earnings (loss) per share. As such, net income was adjusted to add back $0.3 million of convertible notes interest expense (including amortization of convertible notes issuance costs).

 

Reconciliation of adjusted net income (loss)(2) to GAAP net income (loss) and adjusted diluted earnings (loss) per share(2) to GAAP diluted earnings (loss) per share for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and June 30, 2022:

Adjusted net income (loss) and adjusted diluted earnings (loss) per share are financial measures not required by, or presented in accordance with GAAP. These Non-GAAP financial measures should be considered as a supplement to, and not as a substitute for, the financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP, and a reconciliation of these financial measures to the most comparable GAAP financial measures is presented. Management believes this data provides investors with additional useful information on the underlying operations and trends of the business and enables period-to-period comparability of the company’s financial performance.

Reconciliation of Earnings (Loss) Before Interest and Taxes (EBIT)(2), Adjusted EBIT(4), Earnings (Loss) Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (EBITDA)(3) and Adjusted EBITDA(5) to GAAP Net Income (Loss):

This reconciliation is provided as additional relevant information about the company’s performance. EBIT, Adjusted EBIT, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are important financial measures used in the management of the business, including decisions concerning the allocation of resources and assessment of performance. Management believes that reporting EBIT, Adjusted EBIT, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA is useful to investors as these measures are representative of the company’s performance. Management also believes that it is appropriate to compare GAAP net income (loss) to EBIT, Adjusted EBIT, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA.

Reconciliation of Base Sales by end market sector to GAAP Net Sales by end-market sector:

The tables below present net sales by end-market sector, adjusted to exclude surcharges, which represents a financial measure that has not been determined in accordance with GAAP. We believe presenting net sales by end-market sector, both on a gross basis and on a per ton basis, adjusted to exclude raw material and natural gas surcharges, provides additional insight into key drivers of net sales such as base price and product mix. Due to the fact that the surcharge mechanism can introduce volatility to our net sales, net sales adjusted to exclude surcharges provides management and investors clarity of our core pricing and results. Presenting net sales by end-market sector, adjusted to exclude surcharges including on a per ton basis, allows management and investors to better analyze key market indicators and trends and allows for enhanced comparison between our end-market sectors.

When surcharges are included in a customer agreement and are applicable (i.e., reach the threshold amount), based on the terms outlined in the respective agreement, surcharges are then included as separate line items on a customer’s invoice. These additional surcharge line items adjust base prices to match cost fluctuations due to market conditions. Each month, the company will post on the surcharges page of its external website, as well as our customer portal, the scrap, alloy, and natural gas surcharges that will be applied (as a separate line item) to invoices dated in the following month (based upon shipment volumes in the following month). All surcharges invoiced are included in GAAP net sales.
