MATTHEWS INTERNATIONAL REPORTS RESULTS FOR
FISCAL 2024 FIRST QUARTER
Fiscal 2024 First Quarter Financial Highlights: | ||||||||||||||
•Consolidated sales of $450.0 million, compared to $449.2 million a year ago
•Industrial Technologies and Memorialization report another quarter of sales growth
•Adjusted EBITDA for SGK Brand Solutions higher than a year ago
•Company renews $750 million revolving credit facility in January 2024
•Fiscal 2024 outlook remains unchanged
PITTSBURGH, PA, February 1, 2024 - Matthews International Corporation (NASDAQ GSM: MATW) today announced financial results for its first quarter of fiscal 2024.
In discussing the results for the Company’s fiscal 2024 first quarter, Joseph C. Bartolacci, President and Chief Executive Officer, stated:
“Our operating performance for the fiscal 2024 first quarter was generally in line with our expectations across our businesses, except energy solutions. As we advised last quarter, the timing of activity in our energy business can have a significant influence on our quarterly results, and it did in the first quarter of fiscal 2024.
“The Industrial Technologies segment reported another quarter of sales growth compared to a year ago primarily reflecting the continued growth of our energy business. Although higher than a year ago, energy sales for the current quarter were well below anticipated levels. Customer readiness has affected the timing of our equipment projects, which significantly impacted sales for the current quarter. As we believe the challenges underlying the delays will be resolved, we currently expect this shift in timing to remain primarily within the current fiscal year.
“In addition, sales for our product identification and surfaces businesses in the Industrial Technologies segment increased for the current quarter. Sales for the warehouse automation business were lower for the current quarter; this business is typically slower in our fiscal first quarter due to the holiday shopping season.

“Our Memorialization segment reported higher sales for the fiscal 2024 first quarter compared to a year ago, primarily reflecting an increase in sales of granite memorial products and the impact of the recent acquisition of Eagle Granite. Casket sales declined reflecting lower death rates for the current quarter compared to a year ago which still included excess COVID-related deaths.
“The SGK Brand Solutions segment performed well for the fiscal 2024 first quarter. Sales in the U.S. and Asia-Pacific brand markets were relatively stable compared with a year ago, although we continued to see softness in our European brand markets. Most of the segment’s change for the quarter related to the timing of projects in our retail-based business. Adjusted EBITDA for the segment was higher than a year ago, primarily reflecting improved pricing and realized benefits from our recent cost reduction actions.
“Additionally, we renewed our $750 million domestic revolving credit facility in January 2024. The maturity of the renewed facility is January 2029, with generally the same pricing terms and conditions as the previous facility.
“With respect to our fiscal 2024 outlook, we are continuing to target growth in consolidated sales and adjusted EBITDA over fiscal 2023. Customer interest in our energy storage solutions remains strong. Our backlog in this business, which reflects orders from multiple customers, exceeded $100 million at the end of the current quarter. However, as we cautioned in November 2023, with the increasing level of larger longer-term projects, the timing of order execution can significantly influence quarterly results as we experienced this quarter. Accordingly, while we expect our fiscal 2024 results to exceed fiscal 2023, the level of growth remains more difficult to predict at this time.”

Consolidated sales for the quarter ended December 31, 2023 were $450.0 million, compared to $449.2 million for the same quarter a year ago, representing an increase of $0.7 million, or 0.2%. Changes in foreign currency exchange rates were estimated to have a favorable impact of $5.1 million on fiscal 2024 first quarter sales compared to the prior year.
Net loss attributable to the Company for the quarter ended December 31, 2023 was $2.3 million, or $0.07 per share, compared to income of $3.7 million, or $0.12 per share in the prior year. On a non-GAAP adjusted basis, earnings for the fiscal 2024 first quarter were $0.37 per share, compared to $0.53 per share a year ago. The decrease was primarily attributable to a decrease in consolidated adjusted EBITDA and higher interest expense for the current quarter compared to a year ago. Adjusted EBITDA for the fiscal 2024 first quarter was $45.5 million, compared to $49.3 million a year ago, reflecting lower adjusted EBITDA in the Memorialization and Industrial Technologies segments, partially offset by higher adjusted EBITDA in the SGK Brand Solutions segment and lower corporate and non-operating costs.

Reconciliations of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Included in this report are measures of financial performance that are not defined by GAAP, including, without limitation, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income and EPS, constant currency sales, constant currency adjusted EBITDA, net debt and net debt leverage ratio. The Company defines net debt leverage ratio as outstanding debt (net of cash) relative to adjusted EBITDA. The Company uses non-GAAP financial measures to assist in comparing its performance on a consistent basis for purposes of business decision-making by removing the impact of certain items that management believes do not directly reflect the Company’s core operations including acquisition and divestiture costs, ERP integration costs, strategic initiative and other charges (which includes non-recurring charges related to certain commercial and operational initiatives and exit activities), stock-based compensation and the non-service portion of pension and postretirement expense. Constant currency sales and constant currency adjusted EBITDA remove the impact of changes due to foreign exchange translation rates. To calculate sales and adjusted EBITDA on a constant currency basis, amounts for periods in the current fiscal year are translated into U.S. dollars using exchange rates applicable to the comparable periods of the prior fiscal year. Management believes that presenting non-GAAP financial measures is useful to investors because it (i) provides investors with meaningful supplemental information regarding financial performance by excluding certain items that management believes do not directly reflect the Company's core operations, (ii) permits investors to view performance using the same tools that management uses to budget, forecast, make operating and strategic decisions, and evaluate historical performance, and (iii) otherwise provides supplemental information that may be useful to investors in evaluating the Company’s results. The Company's calculations of its non-GAAP financial measures, however, may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. The Company believes that the presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures, when considered together with the corresponding GAAP financial measures and the reconciliations to those measures, provided herein, provide investors with an additional understanding of the factors and trends affecting the Company’s business that could not be obtained absent these disclosures.

These benefit cost components are excluded from adjusted EBITDA since they are primarily influenced by external market conditions that impact investment returns and interest (discount) rates.

The service cost and prior service cost components of pension and postretirement expense are included in the calculation of adjusted EBITDA, since they are considered to be a better reflection of the ongoing service-related costs of providing these benefits.
