Albany International Corp. (NYSE:AIN) today reported operating
results for its second quarter of 2023, which ended June 30,
2023.
“We are reporting another strong quarter of operational
results,” said Albany International President and Chief Executive
Officer, Bill Higgins. "Our revenue of $274 million was up $13
million or approximately 5% year-over-year with growth across both
business segments. I'm particularly pleased that revenue growth and
operational execution in our businesses allows us to increase our
guidance for 2023.
“We continue to advance our strategies for long-term value
creation. During the quarter we announced our agreement to acquire
Heimbach Group, a European producer of paper machine clothing which
we expect to close in the second half of this year. With Heimbach,
our broadened footprint will allow us to better serve customers in
Europe and Asia. It's an exciting opportunity to create significant
value for our shareholders as well as for our customers.
“Our Albany Engineered Composites team is on track to meeting
short term growth and value deliverables. Longer term we are
engaged with customers, demonstrating the capabilities of our
proprietary 3D woven composites technology for applications in
next-generation airframe, wing, and engine designs. We are
investing our time and effort today to position for these long-term
program opportunities,” concluded Higgins.
For the second quarter ended June 30,
2023:
- Net revenues were $274.1 million, up 4.9%, or 4.8% after
adjusting for currency translation, when compared to the prior
year, due to year-over-year growth in revenues related to
commercial programs within the Engineered Composites segment and
revenue growth in all paper machine clothing grades within the
Machine Clothing segment.
- Gross profit of $102.7 million was 2.1% higher than the $100.6
million reported for the same period of 2022; overall gross margin
declined by 100 basis points, primarily due to higher contribution
from the lower-margin Engineered Composites segment.
- Selling, Technical, General, and Research (STG&R) expenses
were $57.1 million, compared to $49.9 million in the same period of
2022; the increase was driven by executive transition costs and
professional service fees.
- Operating income was $45.5 million, compared to $50.7 million
in the prior year, a decrease of 10.3%.
- Effective tax rate for the quarter was 42.8%, compared to 26.9%
for the second quarter of 2022. The year-over-year increase was
mainly due to unfavorable discrete tax adjustments recognized in
the second quarter of 2023.
- Net income attributable to the Company was $26.7 million ($0.86
per share), compared to $39.2 million ($1.25 per share) in the
second quarter of 2022; Adjusted earnings per share (or Adjusted
EPS, a non-GAAP measure) was $0.90 per share, compared to $1.06 per
share for the same period last year.
- Adjusted EBITDA (a non-GAAP measure) was $65.0 million,
compared to $66.0 million in the second quarter of 2022, a decrease
of 1.5%.
Please see the tables below for a reconciliation of non-GAAP
measures to their comparable GAAP measures.

million on the low end and $20 million on the high end of the

Non-GAAP Measures
This release, including the conference call commentary
associated with this release, contains certain non-GAAP measures,
that should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for
the related GAAP measures. Such non-GAAP measures include net
revenues and percent change in net revenues, excluding the impact
of currency translation effects ; EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, and
Adjusted EBITDA margin; Net debt; Net leverage ratio; and Adjusted
earnings per share (or Adjusted EPS). Management believes that
these non-GAAP measures provide additional useful information to
investors regarding the Company’s operational performance.
Presenting Net revenues and change in Net revenues, after
currency effects are excluded, provides management and investors
insight into underlying revenues trends. Net revenues, or percent
changes in net revenues, excluding currency rate effects, are
calculated by converting amounts reported in local currencies into
U.S. dollars at the exchange rate of a prior period. These amounts
are then compared to the U.S. dollar amount as reported in the
current period.
EBITDA (calculated as net income excluding interest, income
taxes, depreciation and amortization), Adjusted EBITDA, and
Adjusted EPS are performance measures that relate to the Company’s
continuing operations. The Company defines Adjusted EBITDA as
EBITDA excluding costs or benefits that are not reflective of the
Company’s ongoing or expected future operational performance. Such
excluded costs or benefits do not consist of normal, recurring cash
items necessary to generate revenues or operate our business.
Adjusted EBITDA margin represents Adjusted EBITDA expressed as a
percentage of net revenues.
The Company defines Adjusted EPS as basic earnings per share
(GAAP), adjusted by the after tax per share amount of costs or
benefits not reflective of the Company’s ongoing or expected future
operational performance. The income tax effects are calculated
using the applicable statutory income tax rate of the jurisdictions
where such costs or benefits were incurred or the effective tax
rate applicable to total company results.
The Company’s Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, and
Adjusted EPS may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of
other companies.
Net debt aids investors in understanding the Company’s debt
position if all available cash were applied to pay down
indebtedness.
Net leverage ratio informs the investors of the Company's
financial leverage at the end of the reporting period, providing an
indicator of the Company's ability to repay its debt.
We encourage investors to review our financial statements and
publicly-filed reports in their entirety and not to rely on any
single financial measure.
Forward-Looking Statements
This press release may contain statements, estimates, guidance
or projections that constitute “forward-looking statements” as
defined under U.S. federal securities laws. Generally, the words
“believe,” “expect,” “intend,” “estimate,” “anticipate,” “project,”
“will,” “should,” “look for,” “guidance,” “guide,” and similar
expressions identify forward-looking statements, which generally
are not historical in nature. Because forward-looking statements
are subject to certain risks and uncertainties (including, without
limitation, those set forth in the Company’s most recent Annual
Report on Form 10-K or Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q), actual
results may differ materially from those expressed or implied by
such forward-looking statements.
Forward-looking statements in this release or in the webcast
include, without limitation, statements about macroeconomic
conditions, including inflationary cost pressures, as well as
global events, which include but are not limited to, the ongoing
COVID-19 pandemic and the Russia-Ukraine military conflicts;
paper-industry trends and conditions during 2023 and in future
years; expectations in 2023 and in future periods of revenues,
EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA (both in dollars and as a percentage of net
revenues), Adjusted EPS, income, gross profit, gross margin, cash
flows and other financial items in each of the Company’s
businesses, and for the Company as a whole; the timing and impact
of production and development programs in the Company’s AEC
business segment and the revenues growth potential of key AEC
programs, as well as AEC as a whole; the amount and timing of
capital expenditures, future tax rates and cash paid for taxes,
depreciation and amortization; future debt and net debt levels and
debt covenant ratios; and changes in currency rates and their
impact on future revaluation gains and losses. Furthermore, a
change in any one or more of the foregoing factors could have a
material effect on the Company’s financial results in any period.
Such statements are based on current expectations, and the Company
undertakes no obligation to publicly update or revise any
forward-looking statements.
Statements expressing management’s assessments of the growth
potential of its businesses, or referring to earlier assessments of
such potential, are not intended as forecasts of actual future
growth, and should not be relied on as such. While management
believes such assessments to have a reasonable basis, such
assessments are, by their nature, inherently uncertain. This
release and earlier releases set forth a number of assumptions
regarding these assessments, including historical results,
independent forecasts regarding the markets in which these
businesses operate, and the timing and magnitude of orders for our
customers’ products. Historical growth rates are no guarantee of
future growth, and such independent forecasts and assumptions could
prove materially incorrect in some cases.
