VOXX International Corporation Reports its Fiscal 2024 Third Quarter Financial Results

 

ORLANDO, FL.— January 9, 2024 — VOXX International Corporation (NASDAQ: VOXX), a leading manufacturer and distributor of automotive and consumer technologies for the global markets, today announced its financial results for its Fiscal 2024 third quarter ended November 30, 2023.

 

Commenting on the Company’s results and business outlook, Pat Lavelle, Chief Executive Officer stated, “For the third quarter comparisons, our gross margins grew by 90 basis points and our operating expenses improved by over 2%, resulting in operating income comparable with the prior year period, despite lower sales. The market remained challenging, especially at retail, and the UAW strike adversely impacted our Automotive business as well during the quarter. We see the economy slowing and we’re taking steps to mitigate any further risk, while at the same time, have introduced several new products in new categories that are growing, with an impressive product line-up and a strong customer base in place as we enter calendar year 2024. We expect some continued softness near-term but believe conditions should improve throughout 2024 and into our Fiscal 2025.”

 

Fiscal 2024 and Fiscal 2023 Third Quarter Comparisons

 

Net sales in the Fiscal 2024 third quarter ended November 30, 2023, were $135.3 million as compared to $143.1 million in the Fiscal 2023 third quarter ended November 30, 2022, a decrease of $7.8 million or 5.4%. On a sequential basis as compared to the Fiscal 2024 second quarter, net sales increased by $21.6 million or 19.0%.

 

Automotive Electronics segment net sales in the Fiscal 2024 third quarter were $35.9 million as compared to $48.6 million in the comparable year-ago period, a decrease of $12.6 million or 26.0%. For the same comparable periods, OEM product sales were $10.0 million as compared to $19.1 million and aftermarket product sales were $25.9 million as compared to $29.4 million. The decline in year-over-year sales was primarily related to lower sales of OEM and aftermarket rear-seat entertainment products and aftermarket security products, partially offset by an increase in satellite radio products.

 

Consumer Electronics segment net sales in the Fiscal 2024 third quarter were $100.0 million as compared to $94.1 million in the comparable year-ago period, an increase of $5.9 million or 6.2%. For the same comparable periods, Premium Audio product sales were $79.9 million as compared to $73.5 million and other consumer electronics (“CE”) product sales were $20.1 million as compared to $20.6 million. The increase in Premium Audio product sales was primarily related to higher sales of premium home theater speakers and wireless speakers domestically and internationally, offset by lower sales domestically of Onkyo and Pioneer products. Other CE product sales for the comparable periods declined across various categories primarily due to retail softness and global economic challenges, partially offset by higher sales of domestic accessory products driven by the launch of new RCA hearing aid products.

 

Biometrics segment net sales in the Fiscal 2024 third quarter were $0.1 million as compared to $0.3 million in the comparable year-ago period, with the decline primarily related to a large one-time sale during the prior year period that did not repeat in the current year.

 

1


The gross margin in the Fiscal 2024 third quarter was 26.9% as compared to 26.0% in the Fiscal 2023 third quarter, an increase of 90 basis points. Gross margin improved by 170 basis points on a sequential basis when compared to the Fiscal 2024 second quarter.

 

When comparing the Fiscal 2024 and Fiscal 2023 third quarters, the Company reported:

 

Automotive Electronics segment gross margin of 25.8% as compared to 24.6%. The year-over-year improvement of 120 basis points was primarily related to better margins as a result of relocated manufacturing operations, ongoing cost savings and greater efficiencies. The improvement was also related to product mix given less volume of lower-margin OEM rear-seat entertainment products. On a sequential basis when compared to the Fiscal 2024 second quarter, Automotive Electronics segment gross margin improved by 150 basis points.

Consumer Electronics segment gross margin of 27.1% as compared to 26.6%. The year-over-year improvement of 50 basis points was primarily driven by higher sales of premium home speakers, improved vendor pricing, and fewer close-out and promotional sales for the comparable periods. Lower sales of Onkyo and Pioneer products and challenging market conditions continued to impact gross margins, despite the year-over-year segment improvement. On a sequential basis when compared to the Fiscal 2024 second quarter, Consumer Electronics segment gross margin improved by 160 basis points.

 

Biometrics segment gross margin of 1.1% as compared to 22.7% in the comparable year-ago period.

 

Total operating expenses in the Fiscal 2024 third quarter were $34.1 million as compared to $34.8 million in the comparable Fiscal 2023 period, an improvement of $0.7 million or 2.1%. On a sequential basis when compared to the Fiscal 2024 second quarter, total operating expenses declined by $3.1 million or 8.2%.

 

When comparing the Fiscal 2024 and Fiscal 2023 third quarters, the Company reported:

 

Selling expenses of $11.0 million as compared to $11.4 million. The year-over-year improvement of $0.4 million or 3.9%, was driven by lower employee salaries, related benefits and payroll taxes, as well as lower advertising and website expenses. This was partially offset by higher advertising expenses related to the Company’s new RCA hearing aid products.

 

General and administrative (“G&A”) expenses of $15.9 million as compared to $15.9. The Company had lower salary and occupancy expenses and lower depreciation and amortization expense, which was partially offset by higher legal and professional fees primarily related to the Company’s final arbitration award that will be paid in the fourth quarter of Fiscal 2024.

 

Engineering and technical support expenses of $7.1 million as compared to $7.2 million. The year-over-year improvement of $0.1 million or 1.5%, was primarily due to a decline in labor expenses resulting from a reduction in the use of outside labor, lower payroll tax expense, offset by an increase in research and development expenses related to the timing of projects.
Restructuring expenses, which primarily represented costs related to the relocation of certain OEM production operations from Florida to Mexico, decreased by $0.2 million.

The Company reported operating income of $2.3 million in both the Fiscal 2024 and Fiscal 2023 third quarters. The Company reported an operating loss of $8.5 million in its Fiscal 2024 second quarter, representing a sequential improvement of $10.8 million.

2


Total other expense, net, in the Fiscal 2024 third quarter increased by $1.4 million over the comparable Fiscal 2023 third quarter. Interest and bank charges increased by $0.4 million, equity in income of equity investee declined by $0.9 million, and the charges related to the final arbitration award associated with the Seaguard arbitration declined by $0.2 million. Other, net was negatively impacted by $0.3 million, primarily as a result of losses in foreign currency.

 

Net income attributable to VOXX International Corporation in the Fiscal 2024 third quarter was $1.9 million as compared to a net income attributable to VOXX International Corporation of $7.4 million in the comparable Fiscal 2023 period. The Company reported basic and diluted income per share attributable to VOXX International Corporation of $0.08 in the Fiscal 2024 third quarter as compared to basic and diluted income per common share attributable to VOXX International Corporation of $0.30, in the comparable Fiscal 2023 period.

 

The Company reported Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (“EBITDA”) in the Fiscal 2024 third quarter of $6.5 million as compared to EBITDA in the comparable Fiscal 2023 third quarter of $7.7 million. Adjusted EBITDA in the Fiscal 2024 third quarter was $8.0 million as compared to Adjusted EBITDA of $9.0 million in the comparable Fiscal 2023 period.

 

Fiscal 2024 and Fiscal 2023 Nine-month Comparisons

 

Net sales in the Fiscal 2024 nine-month period ended November 30, 2023, were $360.8 million as compared to $397.5 million in the Fiscal 2023 nine-month period ended November 30, 2022, a decrease of $36.7 million or 9.2%.

 

Automotive Electronics segment net sales in the Fiscal 2024 nine-month period were $109.7 million as compared to $125.4 million in the comparable year-ago period, a decrease of $15.6 million or 12.5%. For the same comparable periods, OEM product sales were $46.5 million as compared to $51.1 million and aftermarket product sales were $63.2 million as compared to $74.3 million. The decline in OEM sales was primarily related to lower customer volumes which were due in part to the United Auto Workers strike that took place during the Company’s Fiscal 2024 third quarter. The decline in aftermarket sales was primarily related to lower sales of aftermarket security and rear-seat entertainment products, partially offset by an increase in sales of satellite radio and collision avoidance products.

 

Consumer Electronics segment net sales in the Fiscal 2024 nine-month period were $251.4 million as compared to $271.1 million in the comparable year-ago period, a decrease of $19.7 million or 7.3%. For the same comparable periods, Premium Audio product sales were $180.7 million as compared to $212.6 million and other CE product sales were $70.7 million as compared to $58.4 million. The decline in Premium Audio product sales was primarily related to ongoing softness in the global economy, which impacted consumer spending across categories, as well as higher sales in the prior year period related to Onkyo and Pioneer products. The increase in other CE product sales was primarily due to higher European accessory sales of the Company’s new balcony solar power products, and higher domestic accessory sales driven by wireless speakers and the Company’s new RCA hearing aids.

 

Biometrics segment net sales in the Fiscal 2024 nine-month period were $0.4 million as compared to $0.7 million in the comparable year-ago period, with the decline primarily related to a large one-time sale during the prior year period that did not repeat in the current year.

 

The gross margin in the Fiscal 2024 nine-month period was 25.6% as compared to 25.1% in the Fiscal 2023 nine-month period, an increase of 50 basis points. For the same comparable periods, the Company reported:

 

Automotive Electronics segment gross margin of 23.6% as compared to 23.8%. The 20 basis point decline in gross margin was primarily related to product mix and lower sales of higher margin products such as

3


security and rear-seat entertainment, partially offset by the positive impact from transitioning certain manufacturing to Mexico.

 

Consumer Electronics segment gross margin of 26.2% as compared to 25.5%. The year-over-year improvement of 70 basis points was primarily driven by higher sales of wireless accessory speakers domestically and the Company’s new balcony solar products internationally, partially offset by lower sales volumes of Onkyo and Pioneer products, among other factors.

 

Biometrics segment gross margin of 26.4% as compared to 31.3% in the comparable year-ago period.

 

Total operating expenses in the Fiscal 2024 nine-month period were $110.2 million as compared to $114.0 million in the comparable Fiscal 2023 period, an improvement of $3.8 million or 3.3%. Excluding restructuring expenses and acquisition costs, total operating expenses for the comparable Fiscal 2024 and Fiscal 2023 nine-month periods declined by $5.3 million or 4.7%. For the same comparable periods:

 

Selling expenses of $32.2 million as compared to $35.6 million. The year-over-year improvement of $3.4 million or 9.6%, was primarily driven by lower sales employee salaries and related benefits and payroll taxes, as well as due to Employee Retention Credits which have offset payroll tax expenses. Additionally, commission expenses and advertising and website expenses decreased, partially offset by higher advertising related to RCA hearing aids.

 

General and administrative expenses of $52.6 million as compared to $53.9 million. The year-over-year improvement of $1.3 million or 2.4%, was primarily due to lower depreciation and amortization expense, office expense, legal and professional fees, as well as taxes, licensing fees and payroll taxes. This was partially offset by an increase in bad debt expense due to releases in the prior year that did not repeat, as well as higher travel expenses.

 

Engineering and technical support expenses of $23.3 million as compared to $23.8 million. The year-over-year improvement of $0.6 million or 2.5%, was primarily due to lower research and development expenses and ongoing cost cutting measures. There was also a decline in payroll expense which was partially offset by higher travel expense.

 

Acquisition costs of $0.1 million were incurred in the Fiscal 2023 nine-month period associated with the acquisition of certain assets of Onkyo Home Entertainment Corporation which was completed in September 2021. There were no related costs incurred in the comparable Fiscal 2024 period.
Restructuring expenses of $2.2 million increased by $1.6 million as the Company initiated actions to lower its headcount and other expenses during the Fiscal 2024 nine-month period, as well as actions taken to relocate certain OEM production operations from Florida to Mexico.

The Company reported an operating loss in the Fiscal 2024 nine-month period of $17.7 million as compared to an operating loss of $14.3 million in the comparable Fiscal 2023 period.

Total other expense, net, in the Fiscal 2024 nine-month period was $5.9 million as compared to total other expense, net, of $3.9 million in the comparable Fiscal 2023 period. Interest and bank charges increased by $1.9 million and charges related to the final arbitration award associated with the Seaguard arbitration increased by $0.4 million. Equity in income of equity investee declined by $1.4 million and other, net improved by $1.7 million, primarily as a result of changes in foreign currency.

 

Net loss attributable to VOXX International Corporation in the Fiscal 2024 nine-month period was $19.9 million as compared to a net loss attributable to VOXX International Corporation of $9.3 million in the comparable Fiscal

4


2023 period. The Company reported a basic and diluted loss per share attributable to VOXX International Corporation of $0.85 in the Fiscal 2024 nine-month period as compared to a basic and diluted loss per common share attributable to VOXX International Corporation of $0.38, in the comparable Fiscal 2023 period.

 

The Company reported an EBITDA loss in the Fiscal 2024 nine-month period of $6.5 million as compared to an EBITDA loss in the comparable Fiscal 2023 period of $3.2 million. The Company reported Adjusted EBITDA in the Fiscal 2024 nine-month period of $3.0 million as compared to Adjusted EBITDA in the comparable Fiscal 2023 period of $5.6 million.

 

Balance Sheet Update

As of November 30, 2023, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $10.4 million as compared to $6.1 million as of February 28, 2023. Total debt as of November 30, 2023 was $48.6 million as compared to $39.2 million as of February 28, 2023. The increase in total debt is primarily related to a $10.0 million increase in outstanding debt on the Company’s Domestic Credit Facility as a result of higher borrowings during the current period, partially offset by a $0.4 million decline associated with the Company’s Florida mortgage and a $0.2 million decline in the shareholder loan payable to Sharp Corporation. Total long-term debt, net of debt issuance costs as of November 30, 2023 was $47.1 million as compared to $37.5 million as of February 28, 2023.

Non-GAAP Measures
EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not financial measures recognized by GAAP. EBITDA represents net loss attributable to VOXX International Corporation and Subsidiaries, computed in accordance with GAAP, before interest expense and bank charges, taxes, and depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA represents EBITDA adjusted for stock-based compensation expense, gains on the sale of certain assets, foreign currency losses (gains), restructuring expenses, acquisition costs, certain non-routine legal fees, and awards. Depreciation, amortization, stock-based compensation, and foreign currency losses (gains) are non-cash items.

We present EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA in this release because we consider them to be useful and appropriate supplemental measures of our performance. Adjusted EBITDA helps us to evaluate our performance without the effects of certain GAAP calculations that may not have a direct cash impact on our current operating performance. In addition, the exclusion of certain costs or gains relating to certain events allows for a more meaningful comparison of our results from period-to-period. These non-GAAP measures, as we define them, are not necessarily comparable to similarly entitled measures of other companies and may not be an appropriate measure for performance relative to other companies. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA should not be assessed in isolation from, are not intended to represent, and should not be considered to be more meaningful measures than, or alternatives to, measures of operating performance as determined in accordance with GAAP.
