  • Operating Margin of 9.5%; Adjusted Operating Margin of 12.4%, down 110 bps from a year ago
  • GAAP EPS of $0.33; Adjusted EPS of $0.49, down 11% versus the prior year period
  • Forecasts 2022 Organic Sales Growth of +5% to +6%
  • Expecting 2022 Adjusted EPS of $1.90 to $2.00; Down 2% to Up 3% from 2021 Adjusted EPS of $1.94

Barnes Group Inc. (NYSE: B), a global provider of highly engineered products, differentiated industrial technologies, and innovative solutions, today reported financial results for the third quarter of 2022.

“In the third quarter, Aerospace continued to deliver excellent performance driven by robust year-over-year growth in the Aftermarket business. At Industrial, performance remains challenged as persistent economic headwinds and operational challenges impact our results,” said Thomas J. Hook, President and Chief Executive Officer of Barnes. “To address Industrial’s performance, our ongoing, multi-phased, restructuring efforts are targeting core business execution, systematically integrating our business portfolio, rationalizing cost, and advancing an action-oriented culture across the enterprise. Our objective is to return to, and eventually surpass, Industrial’s pre-pandemic margin performance,” added Hook.

Third Quarter 2022 Highlights

Third quarter 2022 net sales of $315 million were down 3% compared to the prior year period, with organic sales (1) increasing 2%. Foreign exchange had a negative impact of 6%. Operating income was $30.0 million versus $43.7 million a year ago. Operating margin was 9.5%. Excluding restructuring charges, adjusted operating income was $39.0 million, down 11%, and adjusted operating margin was 12.4%, down 110 bps from a year ago.

Interest expense for the third quarter of 2022 was $3.4 million, a decrease of $0.7 million from the prior year due to the benefits of lower average borrowings and a lower average interest rate. Other expense was $2.4 million versus last year’s $1.2 million, primarily driven by incremental pension expense from restructuring actions.

The Company’s effective tax rate in the third quarter was 30.0%. Excluding the restructuring charges taken this quarter, the adjusted effective tax rate for the third quarter was 27.6%. For the first nine months of 2022, the effective tax rate was 111.0% compared with 27.0% a year ago and 21.9% for the full year 2021. The increase in the 2022 year to date effective tax rate from the full year 2021 rate was driven by this year’s goodwill impairment charge, which is not tax deductible, and last year’s benefits related to a realignment of Italian tax basis goodwill & intangibles and foreign audit adjustments. These items were partially offset by a change in the mix of earnings between high and low tax jurisdictions.

Net income for the third quarter was $17.0 million, or $0.33 per share, compared to $27.9 million, or $0.55 per share, a year ago. On an adjusted basis, net income per share of $0.49 was down 11% from $0.55 a year ago. Adjusted net income per share in the third quarter of 2022 excludes $0.16 of restructuring charges.

Year-to-date cash provided by operating activities was $43.5 million versus $127.8 million a year ago primarily due to an increase in working capital and prior year incentive compensation paid in the current year. Free cash flow was $21.8 million compared to $101.1 million last year. Capital expenditures were $21.7 million, down from $26.7 million a year ago.

A table reconciling non-GAAP to GAAP financial measures, including forward looking outlook information, is presented at the end of this press release.

Segment Performance

Industrial

Third quarter sales were $204 million, down 12% from $232 million in the prior year period. Organic sales decreased 4% while unfavorable foreign exchange lowered sales by 8%. Operating profit was $8.8 million versus $30.1 million in the prior year period. Excluding restructuring charges of $9.4 million, adjusted operating profit of $18.3 million was down 39% and adjusted operating margin of 8.9% was down 410 bps. Adjusted operating profit was impacted by lower sales volume, lower productivity in part affected by supply chain challenges, and the net impacts of inflation.

Aerospace

Third quarter sales were $111 million, up 18% from $94 million last year. Aerospace original equipment manufacturing (“OEM”) sales increased 2%, while aftermarket sales increased 55% compared to the prior year period. Operating profit was $21.2 million in the third quarter, up 56% from $13.6 million in the prior year period. Excluding a favorable restructuring adjustment of $0.4 million, adjusted operating profit of $20.8 million was up 50% from a year ago. The increase in adjusted operating profit was driven by the contribution of higher sales volumes within the Aftermarket business, offset in part by unfavorable productivity due to labor and supply chain challenges. Adjusted operating margin was 18.8%, up 400 bps from 14.8% last year.

Aerospace OEM backlog ended the third quarter at $729 million, down 3% sequentially from June 2022. The Company expects to convert approximately 45% of this backlog to revenue over the next 12 months.

Balance Sheet and Liquidity

Barnes’ balance sheet and liquidity profile remain well-positioned. The Company has liquidity of $72 million in cash and approximately $547 million available under the revolving credit facility, subject to covenants which would have allowed $245 million under our current credit agreements. With respect to the balance sheet, our “Debt to EBITDA” ratio, as defined in our credit agreements, was approximately 2.3 times at quarter end.

Updated 2022 Outlook

Barnes expects organic sales growth of 5% to 6% for the current year with negative foreign exchange of approximately 4%. Adjusted operating margin is now forecasted to be in the range of 11.5% to 12%, up modestly on the low end of our previous range due to the strong Aerospace Aftermarket. Adjusted earnings are expected to be in the range of $1.90 to $2.00 per share, down 2% to up 3% from 2021’s adjusted earnings of $1.94 per share. The adjusted earnings outlook reflects a reduction of $0.05 from the high end of our previous range primarily due to geopolitical and economic uncertainty and ongoing challenges within our Industrial Segment. 2022 adjusted earnings per share are anticipated to exclude a $0.27 impact related to restructuring activities and a $1.33 impact for the goodwill impairment charge taken in the second quarter. The Company forecasts capital expenditures of approximately $35 million and cash conversion of approximately 90% of net income. The adjusted effective tax rate for 2022 is expected to be approximately 24.5%.

Notes:
(1)  The Company defines free cash flow as net cash provided by operating activities less capital expenditures.  The Company believes that the free cash flow metric is useful to investors and management as a measure of cash generated by business operations that can be used to invest in future growth, pay dividends, repurchase stock and reduce debt.  This metric can also be used to evaluate the Company's ability to generate cash flow from business operations and the impact that this cash flow has on the Company's liquidity.

Notes:
(1) The Company has excluded the following from its "as adjusted" financial measurements for 2022:  1) charges related to restructuring actions at certain businesses, including $9.8M reflected within operating profit ($9.0M in the third quarter) and $1.4M reflected within other expense (income), net ($1.4M in the third quarter) and 2) the goodwill impairment charge recorded in the second quarter of 2022 related to the Automation reporting unit.  The Company has excluded the following from its "as adjusted" financial measurements for 2021:  1) the impact of certain foreign tax matters including a benefit related to the Italy tax realignment, partially offset by a charge related to the UK tax rate and 2) charges related to restructuring actions at certain businesses.  The tax effects of the restructuring actions were calculated based on the respective tax jurisdictions and ranged from approximately 15% to approximately 30%.  The goodwill impairment charge did not have a tax effect as it is not deductible for book purposes.  Management believes that these adjustments provide the Company and its investors with an indication of our baseline performance excluding items that are not considered to be reflective of our ongoing results.  Management does not intend results excluding the adjustments to represent results as defined by GAAP, and the reader should not consider it as an alternative measurement calculated in accordance with GAAP, or as an indicator of the Company's performance. Accordingly, the measurements have limitations depending on their use.
