Unique Fabricating, Inc. Reports Second Quarter 2022 Financial Results

AUBURN, HILLS, MI / ACCESSWIRE / August 11, 2022 / Unique Fabricating, Inc. (NYSE American:UFAB), a leader in engineering and manufacturing multi-material foam, rubber, and plastic components utilized in noise, vibration, and harshness management and air/water sealing applications for the transportation, appliance, medical, and consumer/off-road markets, today announced its financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2022.

Second Quarter 2022 Financial Results

  • Net sales of $35.0 million compared to $30.9 million in the second quarter of 2021.
  • Recognized $3.0 million employee retention credit, of which $2.5 million was recognized as a reduction of cost of sales and $0.5 million as a reduction of selling, general, and administrative expenses.
  • Total debt decreased $0.7 million to $47.7 million as of June 30, 2022, from $48.4 million as of December 31, 2021.

"Our dedicated team continues to adapt to the challenges we face in the areas of sourcing, raw material costs, labor, and changing customer production schedules," commented Doug Cain, Unique Fabricating's Chief Executive Officer. "Our continued ability to be flexible has enabled us to remain a trusted partner for customers, amidst their own challenges, and longer-term, we remain confident that we have taken the necessary steps to drive improved performance as volumes increase."

"Our quarterly financial results were impacted by three specific situations," added Mr. Cain. "First, we recorded a $12.2 million goodwill impairment charge. Second, we recognized a $3.0 million benefit related to the Employee Retention Credit program. Third, we experienced equipment and labor related operational issues in our LaFayette, Georgia facility, that we resolved, but the challenges resulted in $1.2 million in additional operating costs in the quarter. We continue to pursue cost recovery initiatives, which we believe will improve our gross margins, with most of the benefit expected to be realized in the second half of 2022. Additionally, we believe our focus on repricing, or in the alternative, eliminating smaller customer relationships, is helping improve capacity utilization and associated margins."

"Finally, we continue to work with our lending syndicate on a long-term plan," concluded Mr. Cain. "The protracted forbearance situation has hampered our ability to win certain business in the transportation market, but our diversification efforts have enabled us to secure approximately $46 million in new customer order intake year to date. A long-term solution with our lending syndicate will help us grow this number through our traditional transportation market, where demand is increasing and timing adjustments are becoming less frequent. The overall market condition remains highly challenging in several areas, but we believe we have proven our ability to navigate these challenges and Unique Fabricating remains strategically positioned to benefit as conditions improve."

Second Quarter 2022 Financial Summary

Net sales for the quarter were $35.0 million, up $4.1 million from $30.9 million during the same period last year as a result of higher light vehicle production in North America in the second quarter of 2022 as compared to the same period in 2021 and the impact of our cost recovery efforts. Gross profit for the second quarter of 2022 was $5.2 million, or 15.0% of net sales, compared to $4.6 million, or 14.9% of net sales, for the same period last year.

Selling, general and administrative expenses were $4.2 million, or 12.1% of net sales, compared to $6.1 million, or 19.7% of net sales for the same period last year. The Company recognized a non-cash goodwill impairment charge of $12.2 million, during the second quarter of 2022.

Net loss was $10.7 million or $0.91 per basic and diluted share in the second quarter of 2022 primarily as a result of the goodwill impairment charge compared to net loss of $2.5 million or $0.26 per basic and diluted share in the second quarter of 2021.

Balance Sheet Summary

As of June 30, 2022, the Company had approximately $0.6 million in cash and cash equivalents, compared to December 31, 2021 when we had $0.7 million in cash and cash equivalents. Total debt outstanding as of June 30, 2022 was $47.7 million compared to $48.4 million as of December 31, 2021.

About Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The Third Amendment to Forbearance Agreement suspended the Minimum Consolidated EBITDA Covenant for the remainder of the forbearance period. To keep the reader informed on how our performance measures against potential future financial covenants, we are disclosing the reconciliation of net income (loss), as reported, to Operating EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure which is similar to financial measurements used in the past to measure the Company's performance against previously required financial covenants. There can be no assurance as to the requirements or form of future financial covenants, including that the example we are providing will be incorporated into any covenant or measure of our performance in the future or as to the use or calculation of Operating EBITDA or any other non-GAAP financial measure. Operating EBITDA, as determined and measured by Unique Fabricating, is defined as net income (loss) before interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, and before certain items, as applicable, such as non-cash stock compensation, severance, restructuring, impairment of goodwill and other intangibles, acquisition and integration costs, gains (losses) on the sale or exchange of assets other than in the ordinary course of business, gains (losses) on extinguishment of debt, and certain expenses related to our Forbearance Agreement including financial advisor fees, legal expenses, amendment fees, and risk advisory and mitigation costs. Operating EBITDA as presented, should not be considered a substitute for results prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP and should not be considered an alternative to net income (loss), which is the most directly comparable financial measure to Operating EBITDA that is prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Operating EBITDA, as determined and measured by Unique Fabricating, should also not be compared to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. Certain of the adjustments and add backs to Operating EBITDA are recurring in nature and are cash expenses, which we believe limits the usefulness of Operating EBITDA as a measurement of the Company's performance.

Customer Order Intake ("COI") reflects anticipated future sales from formally awarded programs and is based on expected production volumes for the life of the program. The calculation of Customer Order Intake does not reflect the impact of lost business and discontinued programs and may be impacted by various assumptions embedded in the respective calculation, including, among other things, actual production levels on new programs and the timing of program launches.

Non-GAAP financial measures may have limitations as analytical tools, and should not be considered in isolation as a substitute for analysis of Unique Fabricating's results as reported under U.S. GAAP.
