CARPENTER TECHNOLOGY REPORTS FOURTH QUARTER AND FISCAL YEAR 2023 RESULTS

PHILADELPHIA - July 27, 2023 - Carpenter Technology Corporation (NYSE: CRS) (the “Company”) today announced financial results for the fiscal fourth quarter and year ended June 30, 2023. For the quarter, the Company reported net income of $38.4 million, or $0.78 earnings per diluted share.

Fourth Quarter Fiscal Year 2023 Highlights

 

   

Exceeded target to return to fiscal year 2019 operating income run rate by the end of fiscal year 2023

 

   

Achieved adjusted operating income of $62.9 million, up from $39.3 million in the previous quarter and $14.9 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2022

 

   

Specialty Alloy Operations segment adjusted operating income reached $80.0 million, up from $49.0 million in the previous quarter and $20.0 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2022

 

   

Net sales excluding surcharge up 14% sequentially and up 39% year-over-year

 

   

Generated $175 million of cash from operations, $144 million in adjusted free cash flow

First Quarter Fiscal Year 2024 Outlook

 

   

Expect operating income to be in the range of $61 million to $67 million, in line with previous guidance

 

   

Expectations would exceed the operating income in the first quarter of fiscal year 2020, our most profitable first quarter in recent history, and be above the historical trend of a sequential seasonal decline in profits

 

   

With a strong first quarter, well positioned in fiscal year 2024 to take a meaningful step towards our long-term goal of doubling fiscal year 2019 operating income by fiscal year 2027

 

   

Exceeding targeted productivity gains could accelerate earnings growth in fiscal year 2024 versus current projections


“More than a year ago, we set the goal to return to pre-pandemic (fiscal year 2019) profitability on a run-rate basis by the end of fiscal year 2023. We exceeded that goal in the fourth quarter,” said Tony R. Thene, President and CEO of Carpenter Technology. “Our performance was driven by increased productivity at our facilities, improved product mix and realized price increases.”

“Notably, the Specialty Alloys Operations (“SAO”) segment demonstrated significant improvement, reaching $80.0 million of adjusted operating income, up from $49.0 million in the previous quarter and $20.0 million in the previous year quarter. SAO reached adjusted operating income margin of 16.8 percent, a meaningful increase over the previous quarter’s 11.9 percent margin.”

“In addition to the strong operating performance, we generated $144 million in adjusted free cash flow for the current fourth quarter.”

“Returning to our pre-pandemic profitability is an important milestone on our journey to doubling our operating income by fiscal year 2027 (vs. fiscal year 2019), and we expect to continue our momentum into fiscal year 2024. For the first quarter of fiscal year 2024, we expect operating income to be in the range of $61 million to $67 million. This would exceed the first quarter of fiscal year 2020, our most profitable first quarter in recent history, and would also be a meaningful step up over the historical trend of a sequential seasonal decline in profits in the first quarter of the fiscal year.”

“We are well-positioned to realize our target: we are operating in a strong demand environment in which our customers want more material, sooner, resulting in record backlogs. We are increasing our productivity across facilities, as evidenced by our performance in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2023, and we are actively managing our preventive maintenance schedules to protect our unique assets, serve our customers and maximize shipments.”

“This is an exciting time at Carpenter Technology. Macro trends are increasing demand across our end-use markets for our broad portfolio of specialized solutions. We have leading capabilities and capacity with a difficult-to-replicate system of assets, and we continue to drive improved productivity to capture the demand.”

non-GAAP financial measures explained in the attached tables

Net sales for the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2023 were $758.1 million compared with $563.8 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2022, an increase of $194.3 million (or 34 percent), on 19 percent higher shipment volume. Net sales excluding surcharge were $560.0 million, an increase of $156.8 million (or 39 percent) from the same period a year ago.

Operating income for the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2023 was $62.9 million compared to operating income of $24.6 million in the prior year period. These results primarily reflect strong commercial execution and improved end-use market conditions compared to the prior year period.

Earnings for the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2023 was $0.78 per diluted share compared to $0.05 per diluted share in the prior year quarter. Excluding special items, adjusted earnings per diluted share in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2022 was $0.00. The increase in earnings per share is driven by significantly higher profitability due to increased volume, improving product mix and higher selling prices.

Cash provided from operating activities in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2023 was $174.9 million, compared to $106.9 million in the same quarter last year. The increase in operating cash flow primarily reflects higher earnings and inventory reductions during the current quarter. Adjusted free cash flow in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2023 was $144.1 million, compared to $74.4 million in the same quarter last year. The increase in adjusted free cash flow was primarily due to higher cash from operating activities in the current quarter. Capital expenditures were $30.8 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2023 compared to $32.8 million in the same quarter last year.


Total liquidity, including cash and available revolver balance, was $392.8 million at the end of the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2023. This consisted of $44.5 million of cash and $348.3 million of available borrowings under the Company’s credit facility.

The Company has two reportable segments, Specialty Alloys Operations (“SAO”) and Performance Engineered Products (“PEP”).

The SAO segment is comprised of Carpenter’s major premium alloy and stainless steel manufacturing operations. This includes operations performed at mills primarily in Reading and Latrobe, Pennsylvania and surrounding areas as well as South Carolina and Alabama.

The PEP segment is comprised of the Company’s differentiated operations. This segment includes the Dynamet titanium business, the Carpenter Additive business and the Latrobe and Mexico distribution businesses. The businesses in the PEP segment are managed with an entrepreneurial structure to promote flexibility and agility to quickly respond to market dynamics. It is our belief this model will ultimately drive overall revenue and profit growth. The pounds sold data above for the PEP segment includes only the Dynamet and Additive businesses.

Corporate costs are comprised of executive and director compensation, and other corporate facilities and administrative expenses not allocated to the segments. Also included are items that management considers not representative of ongoing operations and other specifically-identified income or expense items.

Management believes that removing the impact of raw material surcharge from operating margin provides a more consistent basis for comparing results of operations from period to period, thereby permitting management to evaluate performance and investors to make decisions based on the ongoing operations of the Company. In addition, management believes that excluding the impact of special items from operating margin is helpful in analyzing the operating performance of the Company, as these items are not indicative of ongoing operating performance. Management uses its results excluding these amounts to evaluate its operating performance and to discuss its business with investment institutions, the Company’s board of directors and others.

Impact per diluted share calculated using weighted average common shares outstanding of 48.5 million for the year ended June 30, 2022.

Management believes that earnings (loss) per diluted share adjusted to exclude the impact of special items is helpful in analyzing the operating performance of the Company, as these items are not indicative of ongoing operating performance. Management uses its results excluding these amounts to evaluate its operating performance and to discuss its business with investment institutions, the Company’s board of directors and others.

Management believes that the adjusted free cash flow measure provides useful information to investors regarding the Company’s financial condition because it is a measure of cash generated which management evaluates for alternative uses. Historically, this non-GAAP financial measure included cash used for dividends paid on outstanding common stock and participating securities. Management believes that excluding cash dividends paid from adjusted free cash flow will provide a more direct comparison to operating cash flow, a GAAP-defined financial measure. Fiscal year 2022 has been reclassified to conform to the current presentation.
