Vishay Precision Group: VPG Reports Fiscal 2024 Third Quarter Results

Finanznachrichten News

MALVERN, Pa., Nov. 05, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Vishay Precision Group, Inc. (NYSE: VPG), a leader in precision measurement and sensing technologies, today announced its results for its fiscal 2024 third quarter ended September 28, 2024.

Third Fiscal Quarter Highlights (comparisons are to the comparable period a year ago):

  • Revenues of $75.7 million decreased 11.8%.
  • Gross profit margin was 40.0%, as compared to 41.9%.
  • Adjusted gross profit margin* was 40.0%, as compared to 42.1%.
  • Operating margin was 5.1%, as compared to 9.6%.
  • Adjusted operating margin* was 5.2%, as compared to 11.2%.
  • Diluted net loss per share of $(0.10) compared to $0.46.
  • Adjusted diluted net earnings per share* of $0.19 compared to $0.47.
  • EBITDA* was $5.1 million with an EBITDA margin* of 6.7%.
  • Adjusted EBITDA* was $8.1 million with an adjusted EBITDA margin* of 10.7%.

Ziv Shoshani, Chief Executive Officer of VPG, commented, "Total revenue in the third quarter was fairly stable sequentially, as trends across our markets remained mixed. Some of our cyclical markets such as steel and consumer were soft, while orders in test and measurement and avionics, military & space were higher. Total orders of $68.6 million declined 6.7% sequentially and resulted in a book-to-bill of 0.91."

Mr. Shoshani said: "We continue to focus on our long-term strategies for organic growth, as well as to look for additional opportunities to add high-quality businesses to our platform like our recent acquisition of Nokra. As we continue to streamline our operations mainly in the Sensors and Weighing Solutions segments, we believe our operating model and our solid balance sheet positions us to achieve significant operating returns and cash flow as revenues recover."

Third Fiscal Quarter and Nine Month Financial Trends:
The Company's third fiscal quarter 2024 net loss attributable to VPG stockholders was $(1.4) million, or $(0.10) per diluted share, compared to $6.3 million, or $0.46 per diluted share, in the third fiscal quarter of 2023. Included in the third quarter 2024 pre-tax earnings was a loss of $2.9 million related to unrealized foreign currency effects.

In the nine fiscal months ended September 28, 2024, net earnings attributable to VPG stockholders were $9.1 million, or $0.68 per diluted share, compared to $21.5 million, or $1.57 per diluted share, in the nine fiscal months ended September 30, 2023.

The third fiscal quarter 2024 adjusted net earnings* were $2.5 million, or $0.19 per adjusted diluted net earnings per share*, compared to $6.4 million, or $0.47 per adjusted diluted net earnings per share* in the third fiscal quarter of 2023.

In the nine fiscal months ended September 28, 2024, adjusted net earnings* were $12.3 million, or $0.92 per adjusted diluted net earnings per share*, compared to $21.4 million, or $1.57 per adjusted diluted net earnings per share* in the nine fiscal months ended September 30, 2023.

Segment Performance:
The Sensors segment revenue of $28.2 million in the third fiscal quarter of 2024 decreased 13.3% from $32.5 million in the third fiscal quarter of 2023. Sequentially, revenue decreased 2.3% compared to $28.9 million in the second fiscal quarter of 2024. The year-over-year decrease in revenues was primarily attributable to lower sales of precision resistors in the Test and Measurement and Avionics, Military and Space ("AMS") markets. Sequentially, the decrease primarily reflected lower sales of advanced sensors in the Other markets, mainly for consumer applications, which was partially offset by higher sales of precision resistors in the AMS and Test and Measurement end markets.

Gross profit margin for the Sensors segment was 31.0% for the third fiscal quarter of 2024. Gross profit margin decreased compared to 35.9% in the third fiscal quarter of 2023 and 38.3% in the second fiscal quarter of 2024. The year-over-year decrease in gross profit margin was primarily due to lower volume. Sequentially, the lower gross profit margin was primarily due to lower volume and temporary operational and labor inefficiencies.

The Weighing Solutions segment revenue of $25.2 million in the third fiscal quarter of 2024 decreased 13.1% compared to $29.0 million in the third fiscal quarter of 2023 and was 8.3% lower than $27.4 million in the second fiscal quarter of 2024. The year-over-year decrease in revenues was mainly attributable to lower sales in our Transportation and Industrial Weighing markets, as well as in our Other markets primarily for precision agriculture and medical applications. Sequentially, the decrease in revenues was primarily attributable to lower sales in the Industrial Weighing, Transportation, and Other markets.

Gross profit margin for the Weighing Solutions segment was 35.1% for the third fiscal quarter of 2024, which decreased compared to 38.7% in the third fiscal quarter of 2023 and 37.6% in the second fiscal quarter of 2024. The year-over-year and sequential decrease in gross profit margin were primarily due to lower volume and unfavorable product mix.

The Measurement Systems segment revenue of $22.4 million in the third fiscal quarter of 2024 decreased 8.2% year-over-year from $24.4 million in the third fiscal quarter of 2023 and was 6.2% higher than $21.0 million in the second fiscal quarter of 2024. The year-over-year decrease was primarily attributable to decreased revenue in the Steel, Transportation, and in our Other markets. Sequentially, the increase in revenue was primarily due to higher sales of Diversified Technical Systems Inc. ("DTS") products in the AMS and Transportation markets.

Gross profit margin for the Measurement Systems segment was 56.8%, compared to 53.6% (or 54.5% reflecting an adjustment to exclude $214 thousand of purchase accounting adjustment related to the DTS and Dynamic System Inc. ("DSI") acquisitions), in the third fiscal quarter of 2023, and 52.4% in the second fiscal quarter of 2024. The year-over-year increase in adjusted gross profit margin* was due to favorable product mix which offset the impact from lower volume. The sequentially higher adjusted gross profit margin* reflected higher volume and favorable product mix.

Near-Term Outlook
"Given our backlog and the current market conditions, we expect net revenues to be in the range of $70 million to $78 million for the fourth fiscal quarter of 2024, at constant third fiscal quarter 2024 foreign currency exchange rates," concluded Mr. Shoshani.

*Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information:
We define "adjusted gross profit margin" as gross profit margin before purchase accounting adjustments related to the DTS and DSI acquisition. We define "adjusted operating margin" as operating margin before purchase accounting adjustment related to the DTS and DSI acquisitions, and restructuring costs and severance costs. We define "adjusted net earnings" and "adjusted diluted net earnings per share" as net earnings attributable to VPG stockholders before purchase accounting adjustment related to the DTS and DSI acquisitions, restructuring costs and severance costs, foreign currency exchange gains and losses, and associated tax effects. We define "EBITDA" as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization. We define "Adjusted EBITDA" as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization before purchase accounting adjustment related to the DTS and DSI acquisitions, restructuring costs and severance costs, and foreign currency exchange gains and losses.

Management believes that these non-GAAP measures are useful to investors because each presents what management views as our core operating results for the relevant period. The adjustments to the applicable GAAP measures relate to occurrences or events that are outside of our core operations, and management believes that the use of these non-GAAP measures provides a consistent basis to evaluate our operating profitability and performance trends across comparable periods. These reconciling items are indicated on the accompanying reconciliation schedules and are more fully described in VPG's financial statements presented in our Annual Report on Form 10-K and its Quarterly Reports on Forms 10-Q.
