KEMET Announces Second Quarter Results

/EIN News/ -- Second Quarter Highlights

  • Net sales of $327.4 million within the upper range of management's guidance
  • GAAP Gross margin of 34.7% up 220 basis points versus same quarter last year
  • GAAP EPS net loss of $0.26 per diluted share driven by one-time items
  • Non-GAAP Adjusted EPS of $0.66 per diluted share
  • GAAP operating margin of 15.0% and non-GAAP Adjusted operating margin of 18.4%

FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla., Nov. 11, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- KEMET Corporation (“KEMET” or the “Company”) (NYSE: KEM), a leading global supplier of passive electronic components, today reported results for its second fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2019.

Chief Executive Officer, William M. Lowe Jr. stated, “Sales of our high capacitance large case ceramics in our Ceramics product line remains robust, insulating us somewhat from the general slow-down in the electronics industry. We also maintained during the second quarter our overall non-GAAP adjusted gross margin at 35.0% and our adjusted EBITDA margin at 22.9%, reinforcing our past statements that the many operational changes we have made over the years are embedded in our margin structure. As we look forward to the rest of our fiscal year, we expect adjusting inventory levels in the distribution channel, a slowdown in the automotive segment, and Europe from a geographical sense, to apply downward pressure on sales. As a result, we expect revenue to decline in the range of 8.0% to 13.0% in our third quarter from the current second quarter, however; non-GAAP adjusted gross margin is expected to remain at a historical high ranging from 30.0% to 32.5% next quarter.”

For the three-month and six-month periods ended September 30, 2019, net sales were $327.4 million and $672.6 million, respectively, compared to $349.2 million and $676.8 million, respectively, for the same period last year. Sales were essentially flat for the first six months of the current fiscal year compared to the prior year with a slight decline in the current quarter reflecting a slow-down in the general electronics industry and extended inventory levels in the distribution channel of certain products, but offset by continued strong demand for large case size ceramics. The Ceramics product line revenue was up 24.1% over the same quarter last year.

GAAP operating margin for the quarter ended September 30, 2019 increased slightly to 15.0% compared to 14.3% for the quarter ended September 30, 2018. Non-GAAP adjusted operating margin for the quarter ended September 30, 2019 increased slightly to 18.4% compared to 17.0% for the quarter ended September 30, 2018. Cash on the balance sheet was $192.7 million at September 30, 2019.

Non-GAAP adjusted net income was $39.3 million or $0.66 per diluted share for the quarter ended September 30, 2019, compared to non-GAAP adjusted net income of $50.8 million or $0.86 per diluted share for the quarter ended September 30, 2018.

The Company recorded a charge related to antitrust settlements of $63.1 million during the quarter which gave rise to a GAAP net loss of $15.3 million or $0.26 per diluted share for the quarter ended September 30, 2019, compared to GAAP net income of $37.1 million or $0.63 per diluted share for the quarter ended September 30, 2018.

Net income for the quarters ended September 30, 2019, June 30, 2019, and September 30, 2018 include various items affecting comparability as denoted in the GAAP to non-GAAP reconciliation table included hereafter.

Presentation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The Company has presented certain historical financial measures that have not been prepared in accordance with GAAP, including adjusted gross margin, adjusted operating margin, adjusted earnings per share, and adjusted EBITDA margin. Definitions of our non-GAAP financial measures and a reconciliation to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are included in the financial schedules accompanying this news release.

The Company also has presented non-GAAP adjusted gross margin as projected for the third quarter of fiscal year 2020. A reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP adjusted gross margin guidance is not provided because the Company does not forecast GAAP gross margin as it cannot, without unreasonable effort, estimate or predict with certainty various components of such measure.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The Company utilizes certain Non-GAAP financial measures, including “Adjusted gross margin,” “Adjusted SG&A expenses,” “Adjusted operating income,” “Adjusted net income,” “Adjusted net income per basic and diluted share,” “EBITDA,” and “Adjusted EBITDA,” and certain related ratios. Management believes that investors may find it useful to review the Company’s financial results as adjusted to exclude items as determined by management as further described below.

Adjusted Gross Margin

Adjusted gross margin represents net sales less cost of sales excluding adjustments which are outlined in the quantitative reconciliation provided below. Management uses adjusted gross margin to facilitate our analysis and understanding of our business operations by excluding the items outlined in the quantitative reconciliation provided below which might otherwise make comparisons of our ongoing business with prior periods more difficult and obscure trends in ongoing operations. The Company believes that adjusted gross margin is useful to investors because it provides a supplemental way to understand the underlying operating performance of the Company.  Adjusted gross margin should not be considered as an alternative to gross margin or any other performance measure derived in accordance with GAAP.

The following table provides a reconciliation from non-GAAP Adjusted gross margin to GAAP gross margin, the most directly comparable GAAP measure (amounts in thousands, except percentages):

Adjusted SG&A Expenses

Adjusted SG&A expenses represents SG&A expenses excluding adjustments which are outlined in the quantitative reconciliation provided below. Management uses Adjusted SG&A expenses to facilitate our analysis and understanding of our business operations by excluding these items which might otherwise make comparisons of our ongoing business with prior periods more difficult and obscure trends in ongoing operations. The Company believes that Adjusted SG&A expenses is useful to investors because it provides a supplemental way to understand the underlying operating performance of the Company. Adjusted SG&A expenses should not be considered as an alternative to SG&A expenses or any other performance measure derived in accordance with GAAP.

Adjusted Operating Income

Adjusted operating income represents operating income, excluding adjustments which are outlined in the quantitative reconciliation provided below. We use Adjusted operating income to facilitate our analysis and understanding of our business operations by excluding the items outlined in the quantitative reconciliation provided below, which might otherwise make comparisons of our ongoing business with prior periods more difficult and obscure trends in ongoing operations. The Company believes that Adjusted operating income is useful to investors to provide a supplemental way to understand our underlying operating performance and allows investors to monitor and understand changes in our ability to generate income from ongoing business operations. Adjusted operating income should not be considered as an alternative to operating income or any other performance measure derived in accordance with GAAP.

Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Net Income Per Share

“Adjusted net income” and “Adjusted net income per basic and diluted share” represent net income (loss) and net income (loss) per basic and diluted share excluding adjustments which are outlined in the quantitative reconciliation provided below. The Company believes that these non-GAAP financial measures are useful to investors because they provide a supplemental way to understand the underlying operating performance of the Company and allow investors to monitor and understand changes in our ability to generate income from ongoing business operations.  Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures to evaluate operating performance by excluding the items outlined in the quantitative reconciliation provided below which might otherwise make comparisons of our ongoing business with prior periods more difficult and obscure trends in ongoing operations. Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered as an alternative to net income, operating income or any other performance measures derived in accordance with GAAP.

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA

EBITDA represents net income before income tax expense, interest expense, net, and depreciation and amortization expense. We present EBITDA as a supplemental measure of our ability to service debt. We believe EBITDA is an appropriate supplemental measure of debt service capacity because cash expenditures on interest are, by definition, available to pay interest, and tax expense is inversely correlated to interest expense because tax expense goes down as deductible interest expense goes up; and depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges.

We also present Adjusted EBITDA, which is EBITDA excluding adjustments that are outlined in the following quantitative reconciliation provided, as a supplemental measure of our performance and because we believe this measure is frequently used by securities analysts, investors, and other interested parties in the evaluation of companies in our industry. The items excluded from Adjusted EBITDA are excluded in order to better reflect our continuing operations.

In evaluating Adjusted EBITDA, you should be aware that in the future we may incur expenses similar  to the adjustments noted below. Our presentation of Adjusted EBITDA should not be construed as an inference that our future results will be unaffected by these types of adjustments. Adjusted EBITDA is not a measurement of our financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to net income, operating income or any other performance measures derived in accordance with GAAP or as an alternative to cash flow from operating activities as a measure of our liquidity.

Our Adjusted EBITDA measure has limitations as an analytical tool  and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Some of these limitations are:

  • it does not reflect our cash expenditures, future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments;
  • it does not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs;
  • it does not reflect the significant interest expense or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments on our debt;
  • although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized will often have to be replaced in the future, and our Adjusted EBITDA measure does not reflect any cash requirements for such replacements;
  • it is not adjusted for all non-cash income or expense items that are reflected in our statements of cash flows;
  • it does not reflect the impact of earnings or charges resulting from matters we consider not to be indicative of our ongoing operations;
  • it does not reflect limitations on or costs related to transferring earnings from our subsidiaries to us; and
  • other companies in our industry may calculate this measure differently than we do, limiting its usefulness as a comparative measure.

Because of these limitations, Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as a measure of discretionary cash available to us to invest in the growth of our business or as a measure of cash that will be available to us to meet our obligations. You should compensate for these limitations by relying primarily on our GAAP results and using Adjusted EBITDA as supplementary information.

The following table provides a reconciliation from EBITDA, non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA, and non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA Margin to GAAP net income, the most directly comparable GAAP measure (amounts in thousands, except percentages):
