SARASOTA, FL, August 7, 2023 — Helios Technologies, Inc. (NYSE: HLIO) (“Helios” or the “Company”), a global leader in highly engineered motion control and electronic controls technology for diverse end markets, today reported financial results for the second quarter ended July 1, 2023. Results include our most recent flywheel acquisitions including Schultes Precision Manufacturing, Inc. (or “Schultes”), which was acquired on January 27, 2023, and i3 Product Development, Inc. (or “i3”), which was acquired on May 26, 2023.

“Over the last three years, we have methodically invested in change, and it is exciting to see the progress we have made,” said Helios’ President and Chief Executive Officer Josef Matosevic. “Our businesses are working cohesively to drive best-in-class product development providing the innovation our customers require for success. Expanding our capabilities enables us to better serve a more diversified global market. Our results in the quarter and year-to-date demonstrate this progress even against headwinds of the macroenvironment.”

“Our revolutionary technology, products and solutions allow the Company to be well-positioned to address the advancing megatrends of increased electrification, reduced emissions footprint, higher energy efficiency, and convenient user interface for applications that range from heavy-duty construction machines to off-road vehicles, cold-plunge baths, and commercial kitchen equipment. To serve this growing demand, we are pulling forward investments in manufacturing and capacity and will be adjusting our near-term expectations to accommodate for the related disruption to operations. Additionally, there is reduced visibility for the remainder of the year resulting from the lackluster economic situation in Asia Pacific and impacts from a fire and tornado at the Faster facility,” Matosevic concluded.

* Adjusted numbers are not measures determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States, commonly known as GAAP. Nevertheless, Helios believes that providing these specific non-GAAP figures are important for investors and other readers of Helios financial statements, as they are used as analytical indicators by Helios management to better understand operating performance. These Non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to results prepared in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered a substitute for GAAP. Please carefully review the attached Non-GAAP reconciliations to the most directly comparable GAAP measures and the related additional information provided throughout. Because these metrics are non-GAAP measures and are thus susceptible to varying calculations, these figures, as presented, may not be directly comparable to other similarly titled measures used by other companies.

Sales

•

Continued Positive Sequential Trends: Total revenue up 7%, Electronics segment revenue up 15% and Hydraulics segment revenue up 3% over first quarter 2023.

•

Strong Performance in Various Markets: Year-over-year sales in agriculture, recreational, mining and Aerospace had solid increases reflecting market diversification efforts and acquisitions. On a sequential basis, sales to the health & wellness market were up healthy double digits, recreational sales had a solid increase and agriculture was stable. Sales included $16.4 million in revenue from acquisitions. (See the Organic and Acquired Revenue table in this release that provides acquired revenue by segment by quarter).

•

By Region: Sales increased across all regions over the first quarter of 2023. On a year-over-year basis, sales in the Americas and in Europe, the Middle East and Africa (“EMEA”) both declined 5%, while Asia Pacific ("APAC”) declined 10%.

•

Other Impacts: Foreign currency translation adjustment on sales was nominal in the quarter at $0.3 million unfavorable. Supply chain constraints delayed an estimated $14.2 million in sales.

Profits and margins

•

Gross profit and margin drivers: Gross profit improved sequentially on higher sales but was down $6.5 million compared with the prior-year period on lower volume. Gross margin was unchanged sequentially and declined by 80 basis points compared with the prior-year period primarily due to lower volume and different margin profile from acquisitions offset by favorable pricing.

•

Selling, engineering and administrative (“SEA”) expenses: SEA sequentially were down slightly, but up $5.5 million, or 17% compared with the second quarter of 2022. The year-over-year increase was primarily related to incremental SEA from acquisitions and significant investments in integration, growth, and new product development.

Second Quarter Hydraulics Segment Review

•

Sales: increased 3% sequentially and 7% over the year-ago period to $152.4 million driven by acquisitions which added $15.2 million. By region, sales had strength over the year-ago period in the Americas and EMEA, with a large contribution from the agriculture market, which offset softness in the APAC region. FX had a $0.2 million unfavorable adjustment on sales and supply chain constraints delayed an estimated $9.7 million in sales.

•

Gross profit and margin drivers: gross profit improved over the year-ago period driven by price, efficiency, acquisition mix partially offset by rising material costs. Gross margin reflects rising material costs, as well as the different margin profile of our recent acquisitions. Restructuring costs included in cost of sales increased by $1.3 million to $1.9 million in the second quarter of 2023, compared with the 2022 second quarter.

•

Operating income and operating margin: reflect integration costs related to acquisitions and investments in operational changes and new product development.

Second Quarter Electronics Segment Review

•

Sales: increased 15% sequentially while improvements in the recreational, mobile and agriculture markets did not fully offset the year-over-year comparison for the health & wellness market. Weakness over the year-ago period was across all regions. Foreign currency exchange rates had a nominal $0.1 million unfavorable impact on sales and supply chain constraints delayed an estimated $4.4 million in sales.

•

Gross profit and margin drivers: gross profit grew 24% sequentially while gross margin expanded 260 basis points over 1Q23 as material costs started to return to more normal levels. Compared with the year-ago period, the lower gross profit reflects decreased sales volume, while gross margin increased 150 basis points to 34.7%, driven primarily by favorable material costs, mix of business and cost control.

•

Operating income and operating margin: operating income grew 60% sequentially while operating margin expanded 450 basis points over 1Q23. Compared with the year-ago period declines were the result of lower gross profit and higher SEA expenses related to investments in expansion, new product development and other growth initiatives.

Balance Sheet and Cash Flow Review

•

Total debt: at quarter-end was $549.1 million compared with $525.8 million at end of the first quarter of 2023. Higher debt balances reflect the acquisition of i3.

•

Cash and cash equivalents: as of July 1, 2023 were $37.5 million, up $1.2 million or 3% from the end of the first quarter of 2023.

•

Inventory: increased $3.3 million to $205.7 million from the first quarter of 2023. The increase was the result of the macro issues in the supply chain as well as temporary duplication required from standing up our Centers of Excellence. These issues include the Company purchasing parts ahead of material shortages, holding some inventory for past due orders where one or two components have been delayed in the supply chain.

•

Pro-forma net debt-to-adjusted EBITDA: increased to 2.7x at the end of the second quarter of 2023 (pro-forma for Daman Products, Schultes Precision Manufacturing and i3 Product Development.) At the end of second quarter 2023, the Company had $183.4 million available on its revolving lines of credit.

•

Net cash provided by operations: was $26.1 million in the second quarter 2023 compared with $29.5 million in the prior-year period.

•

Capital expenditures: were $10.5 million in the second quarter 2023, or 4.6% of sales reflecting accelerated investments in capacity expansion. This compares with $7.9 million, or 3.3% of sales, in the year-ago period.

•

Dividends: Paid 106th sequential quarterly cash dividend on July 20, 2023.

Updated 2023 Outlook:

The following provides the Company’s expectations for 2023 as of August 7, 2023. This assumes constant currency, using quarter end rates, and that markets served are not further impacted by the global pandemic or the geo-political environment.


	2020 Actual	Previous 2023 Outlook	Updated 2023 Outlook	Implied 3-Year CAGR at 2023 range mid-point
Consolidated revenue	$523 million	$910 - $940 million	$880 - $900 million	19%
Net income	$14 million	$99 - $104 million	$65 - $66 million
Adjusted EBITDA	$121 million	$214 - $226 million	$187 - $196 million	17%
Adjusted EBITDA margin	23.2%	23.5% - 24.0%	21.0% - 22.0%
Interest expense	$13 million	$23 - $24 million	$30 - $32 million
Effective tax rate	18%	21% - 23%	21% - 23%
Depreciation	$18 million	$27 - $29 million	$31 - $33 million
Amortization	$22 million	$30 - $32 million	$33 - $35 million
Capital expenditures % total revenue	3%	3% - 5% of sales	3% - 5% of sales
Diluted EPS	$0.44	$3.03 - $3.18	$1.96 - $2.00
Diluted Non-GAAP Cash EPS	$2.24	$3.95 - $4.10	$3.04 - $3.12	11%

Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin and Diluted Non-GAAP Cash EPS represent non-GAAP financial measures. The Company has presented the comparable GAAP figures in the table above. For 2023 Outlook, Adjusted EBITDA excludes an estimated $8 million to $9 million of costs for restructuring activities and acquisition related costs including integration. For 2023 Outlook, Diluted non-GAAP Cash EPS excludes an estimated $1.08 to $1.12 per diluted share of costs primarily for amortization, restructuring activities, acquisition related costs including integration and the related tax impact on these items.

Item 1A. “Risk Factors” in the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 28, 2023.

This news release will discuss some historical non-GAAP financial measures, which Helios believes that providing these specific non-GAAP figures are important for investors and other readers of Helios financial statements, as they are used as analytical indicators by Helios management to better understand operating performance. The determination of the amounts that are excluded from these non-GAAP measures is a matter of management judgment and depends upon, among other factors, the nature of the underlying expense or income recognized in a given period. You should not consider the inclusion of this additional information in isolation or as a substitute for results prepared in accordance with GAAP. Please carefully review the Non-GAAP reconciliations to the most directly comparable GAAP measures and the related additional information provided throughout. Because these metrics are non-GAAP measures and are thus susceptible to varying calculations, these figures, as presented, may not be directly comparable to other similarly titled measures used by other companies.

This news release also presents forward-looking statements regarding non-GAAP measures. The Company is unable to present a quantitative reconciliation of these forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable forward-looking GAAP financial measures because such information is not available, and management cannot reliably predict the necessary components of such GAAP measures without unreasonable effort or expense. In addition, the Company believes that such reconciliations would imply a degree of precision that would be confusing or misleading to investors. The unavailable information could have a significant impact on the Company’s 2023 financial results. These non-GAAP financial measures are preliminary estimates and are subject to risks and uncertainties, including, among others, changes in connection with quarter-end and year-end adjustments. Any variation between the Company’s actual results and preliminary financial data set forth above may be material.

(A) Acquisition and financing-related expenses include costs associated with our M&A activities. We believe these costs are not representative of the Company's operational performance and it is therefore meaningful to analyze results with the costs excluded. For the three months and six months ended July 1, 2023, the charges include recurring labor costs of $0.2 million and $0.5 million, professional fees of $0.5 million and $1.6 million and other M&A related costs of $0.4 million and $0.7 million, respectively.

(B) Restructuring activities include costs associated with the creation of our two new Regional Operational Centers of Excellence. We believe these costs are not representative of the Company's operational performance and it is therefore meaningful to analyze results with the costs excluded. For the three months and six months ended July 1, 2023, the charges include non-recurring labor costs of $2.0 million and $2.6 million, travel costs of $0.3 million and $0.5 million and manufacturing relocation and other costs of $0.8 million and $1.2 million, respectively.

(C) Acquisition integration activities include costs associated with integrating our recently acquired businesses, which can occur up to 18 months after acquisition date. We believe these costs are not representative of the Company's operational performance and it is therefore meaningful to analyze results with the costs excluded. For the three months and six months ended July 1, 2023, these costs totaled $0.1 million and $0.2 million, respectively.

(D) Amortization of intangible assets presented here includes $0.1 million and $0.4 million of amortization for capitalized software development costs included within cost of sales in the income statement for the three months and six months ended July 1, 2023, respectively.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Non-GAAP Forward-looking Financial Measures:
Adjusted operating income, adjusted operating margin, EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, net debt-to-adjusted EBITDA, cash net income, cash net income per diluted share and sales in constant currency are not measures determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States, commonly known as GAAP. Nevertheless, Helios believes that providing these specific non-GAAP figures are important for investors and other readers of Helios financial statements, as they are used as analytical indicators by Helios management to better understand operating performance. These Non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to results prepared in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered a substitute for GAAP. Please carefully review the attached Non-GAAP reconciliations to the most directly comparable GAAP measures and the related additional information provided throughout. Because these metrics are non-GAAP measures and are thus susceptible to varying calculations, these figures, as presented, may not be directly comparable to other similarly titled measures used by other companies. The Company does not provide a reconciliation of forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures, such as adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin and cash net income and cash net income per diluted share disclosed above in our 2023 Outlook, to their comparable GAAP financial measures because it could not do so without unreasonable effort due to the unavailability of the information needed to calculate reconciling items and due to the variability, complexity and limited visibility of the adjusting items that would be excluded from the non-GAAP financial measures in future periods.
