Adjusted Net Income of $4.2 million, an Improvement of $9.0 Million

Adjusted Earnings Per Share of $0.18 Versus Adjusted Loss Per Share of $0.21, an Improvement of $0.39

Gross Profit Growth of $12.8 Million or 113%

WOOD DALE, Ill., Nov. 14, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Power Solutions International, Inc. (the “Company” or “PSI”) (OTC Pink: PSIX), a leader in the design, engineering and manufacture of emission-certified engines and power systems, announced third quarter 2022 financial results.

Third Quarter 2022 Results

Sales for the third quarter of 2022 were $124.9 million, an increase of $7.3 million, or 6%, versus the comparable period last year, a result of sales increases of $10.9 million and $18.8 million in the power systems and industrial end markets, respectively, partly offset by a $22.5 million decline in the transportation end market, which was expected during the year as the Company focuses on driving improved long-term profitability. Further, overall sales in the third quarter of 2022 continued to reflect supply chain challenges that impacted the Company’s ability to timely meet certain customer orders. Higher power systems end market sales were attributable to increased sales across various categories, including within standby, demand response, and to customers that have traditionally served the oil and gas market. Higher industrial end market sales are primarily due to increased demand for products across various applications, with the largest increase attributable to products used within the material handling/forklift market. The decreased sales within the transportation end market were primarily attributable to lower sales in the medium duty truck market, coupled with lower sales of school bus products.

Gross profit increased by $12.8 million, or 113%, during the third quarter of 2022 as compared to the prior year. Gross margin in the third quarter of 2022 was 19.3%, an increase of 9.7 percentage points compared to 9.6% last year, primarily due to the impact of higher sales, improved mix and pricing actions, and lower warranty expenses, among other items. For the three months ended September 30, 2022, warranty costs were $3.5 million, a decrease of $3.8 million compared to warranty costs of $7.3 million last year, due largely to lower volumes and a contract revision for the transportation end market engines during the three months ended September 30, 2022.  A majority of the warranty activity is attributable to products sold within the transportation end market.  

Operating expenses decreased by $0.1 million, or 1%, versus the comparable period in 2021, due to lower research, development, and engineering (“R&D”) expenses as R&D expenses declined by $0.6 million during the third quarter of 2022 versus the prior year, primarily due to overall efficiency improvements, executed R&D projects based on market trends and demands, as well as other prudent cost control measures taken during in the period. Additionally, selling, general and administrative costs increased $0.6 million primarily attributable to higher incentive compensation expense and an increase of a legal reserve for an ongoing litigation matter offset by lower legal costs related to the Company’s indemnification obligations of former officers and employees in relation to the conclusion of the United States Attorney’s Office for the Northern District of Illinois’ trial involving former officers and employees during September 2021.

Interest expense was $3.6 million in the third quarter of 2022 as compared to $1.6 million in the prior year, largely due to higher average outstanding debt and a higher overall effective interest rate on the Company’s debt during the third quarter of 2022.

Net income in the third quarter of 2022 was $3.2 million, or $0.14 per share, versus a net loss of $7.2 million, or a loss of $0.31 per share for the comparable prior year period. Adjusted net income was $4.2 million, or Adjusted earnings per share of $0.18, versus Adjusted net loss of $4.8 million, or Adjusted loss per share of $0.21 for the third quarter of 2021. Adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“Adjusted EBITDA”) was positive at $9.9 million compared to an Adjusted EBITDA loss of $1.5 million in the third quarter last year.

Net cash flows provided by operating activities was $12.5 million in the third quarter of 2022 as compared to net cash used by operating activities of $24.9 million in the prior year, primarily driven by the increase in earnings and improvements from working capital accounts.

See “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” below for the Company’s definition of total Adjusted net income (loss), Adjusted earnings (loss) per share, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA and the financial tables that accompany this release for reconciliations of these measures to their closest comparable GAAP measures.

Debt Update

The Company’s total debt was approximately $211.7 million at September 30, 2022, while cash and cash equivalents were approximately $16.5 million.   Included in the Company’s total debt at September 30, 2022 were borrowings of $130.0 million under the Uncommitted Revolving Credit Agreement with Standard Chartered Bank (the “Credit Agreement”) and borrowings of $25.0 million, $50.0 million, and $5 million under the Second, Third and Fourth Shareholder’s Loan Agreements, respectively, with Weichai America Corp., the Company’s majority stockholder. The Credit Agreement includes financial covenants which were effective for the three months ended September 30, 2022, including an interest coverage ratio and a minimum EBITDA threshold, as further defined in the Credit Agreement. For the three months ended September 30, 2022, the Company was in compliance with the covenants. 

The Company is working with Weichai to explore near-term financing solutions in addition to longer-term financing options including the extension of the Third Shareholder’s Loan Agreement which expires on November 30, 2022.  

Outlook for 2022

The Company expects its sales for the full year of 2022 to increase by at least 3% versus 2021 levels, the result of expectations for strong growth in the industrial and power systems end markets, partly offset by an expected reduction in sales in the transportation end market as the Company focuses on driving improved long-term profitability. Gross profit as a percentage of sales is targeted to improve by at least 7 percentage points in the full year of 2022. Further, in the last quarter of 2022, the Company anticipates continued year-over-year growth in the industrial and power systems end markets, partly offset by a reduction in the transportation end market.

Notwithstanding this outlook, which is being driven in part by expectations for an improvement in supply chain dynamics, including timelier availability of parts, and a continuation of favorable conditions across the Company’s various markets, the Company cautions that significant uncertainty remains as a result of supply chain challenges, inflationary costs, commodity volatility, and the COVID-19 pandemic, among other factors.

Management Comments

Dino Xykis, interim chief executive officer, commented, “We are pleased to have continued the momentum from the second quarter as we saw continued sales growth and significant improvement in our gross margin and profitability.”

He continued, “As we look to close out the last quarter of 2022, we are optimistic that these recent trends will continue for 2022 and into the following year.”

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In addition to the results provided in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) above, this report also includes non-GAAP (adjusted) financial measures. Non-GAAP financial measures provide insight into selected financial information and should be evaluated in the context in which they are presented. These non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, financial information presented in compliance with U.S. GAAP, and non-GAAP financial measures as reported by the Company may not be comparable to similarly titled amounts reported by other companies. The non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements, including the related notes, and Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included in this report. Management does not use these non-GAAP financial measures for any purpose other than the reasons stated below.

Non-GAAP Financial MeasureComparable GAAP Financial Measure
Adjusted net income (loss)Net income (loss)
Adjusted earnings (loss) per shareEarnings (loss) per common share – diluted
EBITDANet income (loss)
Adjusted EBITDANet income (loss)

The Company believes that Adjusted net income (loss), Adjusted earnings (loss) per share, EBITDA, and Adjusted EBITDA provide relevant and useful information, which is widely used by analysts, investors and competitors in its industry as well as by the Company’s management in assessing the performance of the Company. Adjusted net income (loss) is defined as net income (loss) as adjusted for certain items that the Company believes are not indicative of its ongoing operating performance. Adjusted earnings (loss) per share is a measure of the Company’s diluted earnings (loss) per common share adjusted for the impact of special items. EBITDA provides the Company with an understanding of earnings before the impact of investing and financing charges and income taxes. Adjusted EBITDA further excludes the effects of other non-cash charges and certain other items that do not reflect the ordinary earnings of the Company’s operations.

Adjusted net income (loss), Adjusted earnings (loss) per share, EBITDA, and Adjusted EBITDA are used by management for various purposes, including as a measure of performance of the Company’s operations and as a basis for strategic planning and forecasting. Adjusted net income (loss), Adjusted earnings (loss) per share, and Adjusted EBITDA may be useful to an investor because these measures are widely used to evaluate companies’ operating performance without regard to items excluded from the calculation of such measures, which can vary substantially from company to company depending on the accounting methods, the book value of assets, the capital structure and the method by which the assets were acquired, among other factors. They are not, however, intended as alternative measures of operating results or cash flow from operations as determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
