Financial Results for the Fourth Quarter of 2022:

The Human Nutrition & Health segment generated fourth quarter sales of $130.4 million, an increase of $14.9 million or 12.9% compared to the prior year quarter. The increase was driven both by the contribution from recent acquisitions, as well as sales growth within food and beverage markets, and higher sales within the minerals and nutrients business. Fourth quarter earnings from operations for this segment were $17.5 million for both 2022 and 2021. Higher sales and higher average selling prices were offset by the timing of an insurance reimbursement related to a flash flood event in the prior year, higher manufacturing input costs, and higher amortization and operating expenses related to the recent acquisitions. Excluding the effect of non-cash expense associated with amortization of acquired intangible assets and other adjustments, adjusted earnings from operations(a) for this segment were $23.5 million, compared to $21.2 million in the prior year quarter, an increase of 11.0%.

The Animal Nutrition & Health segment generated quarterly sales of $64.8 million, a decrease of $0.2 million or 0.3% compared to the prior year quarter. The decrease was the result of lower sales into the monogastric market and an unfavorable impact related to changes in foreign currency exchange rates, partially offset by higher sales into the ruminant market, pricing actions, and the contribution from the acquisition of Bergstrom which included a small Animal Nutrition business. Fourth quarter earnings from operations for this segment of $9.1 million decreased by $1.0 million, or 10.0%, compared to $10.1 million in the prior year quarter, primarily due to the timing of an insurance reimbursement related to a flash flood event in the prior year, increases in manufacturing input costs, and higher operating expenses related to the recent acquisition, partially offset by the aforementioned higher sales into the ruminant market, pricing actions, and the contribution from the acquisition of Bergstrom. Excluding the effect of non-cash expense associated with amortization of acquired intangible assets and other adjustments, adjusted earnings from operations for this segment were $10.0 million, compared to $8.6 million in the prior year quarter, an increase of 16.5%.

The Specialty Products segment generated fourth quarter sales of $31.8 million, an increase of $4.4 million or 16.2% compared to the prior year quarter, due to higher sales of products in the performance gases business and higher plant nutrition sales, partially offset by an unfavorable impact related to changes in foreign currency exchange rates. Fourth quarter earnings from operations for this segment were $8.0 million, versus $6.6 million in the prior year comparable quarter, an increase of $1.4 million or 20.4%, primarily due to the aforementioned higher sales. Excluding the effect of non-cash expense associated with amortization of acquired intangible assets and other adjustments, adjusted earnings from operations for this segment were $9.0 million, compared to $7.6 million in the prior year quarter, an increase of 19.6%.

Consolidated gross margin for the quarter ended December 31, 2022 of $68.6 million increased by $4.6 million or 7.1%, compared to $64.1 million for the prior year comparable period. Gross margin as a percentage of sales was 29.5% as compared to 30.1% in the prior year period, a decrease of 54 basis points, primarily due to increases in certain manufacturing input costs and the timing of an insurance reimbursement related to a flash flood event in the prior year, partially offset by higher average selling prices. Operating expenses of $35.3 million for the quarter increased $5.1 million from the prior year comparable quarter, primarily due to incremental expenses and amortization from the Kappa and Bergstrom acquisitions. Excluding non-cash operating expenses associated with amortization of intangible assets of $6.9 million, operating expenses were $28.4 million, or 12.2% of sales.

Interest expense was $5.1 million and $0.6 million in the fourth quarter of 2022 and 2021, respectively. Our effective tax rates for the three months ended December 31, 2022 and 2021 were 17.0% and 24.7%, respectively. The decrease in the effective tax rate from the prior year was primarily due to favorable provision to return adjustments, favorable FIN 48 reserve adjustments, and higher tax benefits from stock-based compensation.

For the quarter ended December 31, 2022, cash flows provided by operating activities were $41.7 million and free cash flow was $27.5 million. The $195.8 million of net working capital on December 31, 2022 included a cash balance of $66.6 million, which reflects repayments of the revolving loan of $22.0 million, and capital expenditures and intangible assets acquired of $14.5 million.

Ted Harris, Chairman, President, and CEO of Balchem said, “I would like to thank each and every one of our over 1,300 employees for their contributions to these record results. Together, we have shown resilience and the ability to deliver strong results, even in challenging times. I am excited about our future and our ability to provide solutions for the health and nutritional needs of the world while acting as strong stewards of all of our stakeholders.”

Non-GAAP Financial Information

In addition to disclosing financial results in accordance with United States (U.S.) generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), this earnings release contains non-GAAP financial measures that we believe are helpful in understanding and comparing our past financial performance and our future results. The non-GAAP financial measures in this press release include adjusted gross margin, adjusted earnings from operations, adjusted net earnings and the related adjusted per diluted share amounts, EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted income tax expense, and free cash flow. The non-GAAP financial measures disclosed by the company exclude certain business combination accounting adjustments and certain other items related to acquisitions, certain equity compensation, and certain one-time or unusual transactions. Detailed non-GAAP adjustments are described in the reconciliation tables below and also explained in the related footnotes. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP, and the financial results calculated in accordance with GAAP and reconciliations from these results should be carefully evaluated. Investors should not consider non-GAAP measures as alternatives to the related GAAP measures.

(1) Expense related to a flash flood event: Expenses related to a flash flood event at our Verona, Missouri manufacturing site are expensed in our GAAP financial statements. We believe that excluding these costs from our non-GAAP financial measures is useful to investors because such expense is inconsistent in amount and frequency causing comparison of current and historical financial results to be difficult.
 
(2) Inventory valuation adjustment: Business combination accounting principles require us to measure acquired inventory at fair value. The fair value of inventory reflects the acquired company's cost of manufacturing plus a portion of the expected profit margin. The non-GAAP adjustment to our cost of sales excludes the expected profit margin component that is recorded under business combination accounting principles. We believe the adjustment is useful to investors as an additional means to reflect cost of sales and gross margin trends of our business.
 
(3) Amortization of intangible assets and finance lease: Amortization of intangible assets and finance lease consists of amortization of customer relationships, trademarks and trade names, developed technology, regulatory registration costs, patents and trade secrets, capitalized loan issuance costs, other intangibles acquired primarily in connection with business combinations, an intangible asset in connection with a company-wide ERP system implementation, and one finance lease. We record expense relating to the amortization of these intangibles and finance lease in our GAAP financial statements. Amortization expenses for our intangible assets and finance lease are inconsistent in amount and are significantly impacted by the timing and valuation of an acquisition. Consequently, our non-GAAP adjustments exclude these expenses to facilitate an evaluation of our current operating performance and comparisons to our past operating performance.
 
(4) Transaction and integration costs, ERP implementation costs and unallocated legal fees: Transaction and integration costs related to acquisitions and divestitures are expensed in our GAAP financial statements. ERP implementation costs related to a company-wide ERP system implementation are expensed in our GAAP financial statements. Unallocated legal fees for transaction-related non-compete agreement disputes are expensed in our GAAP financial statements. Management excludes these items for the purposes of calculating Adjusted EBITDA and other non-GAAP financial measures. We believe that excluding these items from our non-GAAP financial measures is useful to investors because these are items associated with transactions that are inconsistent in amount and frequency causing comparison of current and historical financial results to be difficult.
 
(5) Impairment charge: An asset impairment charge in 2021 was related to convertible notes receivable. Impairment charge is expensed in our GAAP financial statements. Management excludes this item for the purposes of calculating Adjusted EBITDA and other non-GAAP financial measures. We believe that excluding this item from our non-GAAP financial measures is useful to investors because this item is inconsistent in amounts and frequency causing comparison of current and historical financial results to be difficult.
 
(6) Unrealized foreign currency gain on contingent consideration liability and net realized gain on foreign currency forward contracts: The unrealized foreign currency gain relates to the contingent consideration liability recorded in connection with Kappa acquisition and was recorded as other income in our GAAP financial statements. The net realized gain on foreign currency exchange forward contracts relates to four short-term foreign currency exchange forward contracts with JP Morgan Chase, N.A. in connection with the Kappa acquisition. These contracts did not qualify for hedge accounting and the net gain was recorded as other income in our GAAP financial statements. We believe that excluding these gains and losses from our non-GAAP financial measures is useful to investors because such income or expense are inconsistent in amount and frequency causing comparison of current and historical financial results to be difficult.
 
(7) Income tax adjustment: For purposes of calculating adjusted net earnings and adjusted diluted earnings per share, we adjust the provision for (benefit from) income taxes to tax effect the taxable and deductible non-GAAP adjustments described above as they have a significant impact on our income tax (benefit) provision. Additionally, the income tax adjustment is adjusted for the impact of adopting ASU 2016-09, “Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting” and uses our non-GAAP effective rate applied to both our GAAP earnings before income tax expense and non-GAAP adjustments described above. See Table 3 for the calculation of our non-GAAP effective tax rate.
 
(8) Impact of ASU 2016-09: The primary impact of ASU No. 2016-09, "Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting" ("ASU 2016-09"), was the recognition during the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, of excess tax benefits as a reduction to the provision for income taxes and the classification of these excess tax benefits in operating activities in the consolidated statement of cash flows instead of financing activities.
