BRISTOL, Conn.--()--Barnes Group Inc. (NYSE: B), a global provider of highly engineered products, differentiated industrial technologies, and innovative solutions, today reported financial results for the fourth quarter and full year 2022.

“Our intense emphasis on delivering core business execution across Barnes remains a key focus. We are undertaking several actions to be more competitive in strategic end markets, to provide operational efficiencies, and to generate enhanced profitability and cash flow, all with the sense of urgency required,” said Thomas J. Hook, President and Chief Executive Officer of Barnes. “Early signs of our progress, such as the solid book-to-bill in the quarter, provide evidence that we’re on the right path. While there remains much to do, I’m confident that by driving ‘Top line, Bottom line, Pipeline’ we’ll unlock the underlying value of Barnes for all our stakeholders,” added Hook.

Fourth Quarter 2022 Highlights

Fourth quarter 2022 net sales of $313 million were up 1% compared to the prior year period, with organic sales (1) increasing 5%. Foreign exchange had a negative impact of 4%. Operating income was $24.2 million versus $35.4 million a year ago. Operating margin was 7.7%. Excluding restructuring related charges, adjusted operating income was $35.0 million, down 1%, and adjusted operating margin was 11.2%, down 20 bps from a year ago.

The Company’s effective tax rate in the fourth quarter of 2022 was 18.6% compared with 4.9% in the year ago period. The increase in the effective tax rate was primarily driven by the nonrecurrence of beneficial foreign tax items a year ago and current quarter tax charges associated with the Company’s CEO transition.

Net income for the fourth quarter was $15.6 million, or $0.30 per share, compared to $28.1 million, or $0.55 per share, a year ago. On an adjusted basis, net income per share of $0.52 was down 5% from $0.55 a year ago. Adjusted net income per share in the fourth quarter of 2022 excludes $0.16 of restructuring related charges and $0.06 of tax related CEO transition costs.

Full Year 2022 Highlights

For the full year 2022, Barnes generated net sales of $1,262 million, up slightly from a year ago. Full year organic sales were up 4%, while foreign exchange had a negative impact of 4%. Operating income was $57.1 million versus $150.0 million a year ago, while operating margin decreased from 11.9% to 4.5%. On an adjusted basis, which excludes restructuring related charges and a goodwill impairment charge recorded in the second quarter, operating income was $145.9 million this year versus $151.0 million last year, a decrease of 3%. Adjusted operating margin was 11.6%, down 40 bps from the prior year.

Interest expense for 2022 was $14.6 million, a decrease of $1.6 million from the prior year due to the benefit of lower average borrowings. Other expense was $4.3 million versus last year’s $6.0 million, primarily driven by a reduction in non-operating pension expense.

The Company’s effective tax rate for 2022 was 64.7% compared with 21.9% last year. The increase in the 2022 effective tax rate was driven by this year’s goodwill impairment charge, which is not tax deductible, tax charges associated with Barnes’ CEO transition, and non-recurring beneficial foreign tax items a year ago. These items were partially offset by a change in the mix of earnings between high and low tax jurisdictions. Excluding the tax impacts for the adjusted items of restructuring, goodwill impairment, and tax related CEO transition costs, the 2022 effective tax rate would be approximately 21%.

Net income for 2022 was $13.5 million, or $0.26 per share, compared to $99.9 million, or $1.96 per share, a year ago. On an adjusted basis, which excludes $0.33 of restructuring related charges, $0.06 of tax charges associated with the Company’s CEO transition, and $1.33 from a goodwill impairment charge recorded in the second quarter, net income per share was $1.98, up 2% from a year ago.

Full year cash provided by operating activities was $75.6 million versus $167.8 million a year ago primarily due to an increase in working capital and prior year incentive compensation paid in the current year. Free cash flow was $40.5 million compared to $133.7 million last year. Capital expenditures were $35.1 million, an increase of $1.0 million.

A table reconciling non-GAAP to GAAP financial measures, including forward looking outlook information, is presented at the end of this press release.

Segment Performance

Industrial

Fourth quarter sales were $205 million, down 3% from $210 million in the prior year period. Organic sales increased 4% while unfavorable foreign exchange lowered sales by 7%. Operating profit was $6.1 million versus $19.1 million in the prior year period. Excluding restructuring related charges of $11.1 million, adjusted operating profit of $17.2 million was down 9% and adjusted operating margin of 8.4% was down 60 bps. Adjusted operating profit was impacted by lower productivity, inclusive of COVID related absenteeism in China.

Industrial’s full year 2022 sales were $833 million, down 7% from $896 million a year ago. Organic sales were down 1%. Unfavorable foreign exchange had a negative impact of 6%. Full year operating loss was $19.1 million versus operating profit of $97.7 million in the prior year. Excluding restructuring related charges of $20.9 million and a goodwill impairment charge of $68.2 million, adjusted operating profit was $70.0 million versus $97.8 million a year ago, a decrease of 28%. Adjusted operating margin was 8.4%, down 250 bps from 2021.

Aerospace

Fourth quarter sales were $109 million, up 8% from $101 million last year. Aerospace original equipment manufacturing (“OEM”) sales decreased 2%, while aftermarket sales increased 27%. Operating profit was $18.0 million, up 11% from $16.3 million in the prior year period. Excluding a favorable restructuring related adjustment of $0.3 million, adjusted operating profit of $17.8 million was up 8% from a year ago. The increase in adjusted operating profit was driven by the contribution of higher aftermarket sales volumes, offset in part by unfavorable labor productivity. Adjusted operating margin was 16.4%, similar to a year ago.

Full year 2021 Aerospace sales were $429 million, up 18% from $362 million last year. Operating profit was $76.2 million, up 46% from last year’s $52.3 million while operating margin was 17.7%, up 330 bps. Excluding a favorable restructuring adjustment of $0.3 million, adjusted operating profit was $75.9 million, up 43%, and adjusted operating margin was 17.7%, up 300 bps.

Aerospace OEM backlog ended the year at $750 million, up 3% sequentially from September 2022 and up 10% from a year ago. The Company expects to convert approximately 40% of this backlog to revenue over the next 12 months.

Balance Sheet and Liquidity

Barnes’ balance sheet and liquidity profile remain well-positioned. The Company has liquidity of $77 million in cash and approximately $533 million available under the revolving credit facility, subject to covenants which would have allowed $218 million under our current credit agreements. With respect to the balance sheet, our “Debt to EBITDA” ratio, as defined in our credit agreements, was approximately 2.35 times at year end.

2023 Full Year Outlook

Barnes expects organic sales growth of 6% to 8% for 2023 with adjusted operating margin in the range of 12.5% to 13.5%. Adjusted earnings are expected to be in the range of $2.10 to $2.30 per share, up 6% to 16% from 2022’s adjusted earnings of $1.98 per share. 2023 adjusted earnings per share are anticipated to exclude a $0.15 impact related to restructuring related activities. The Company forecasts capital expenditures of approximately $50 million and cash conversion of approximately 100% of net income. The adjusted effective tax rate for 2023 is expected to be between 24.5% and 25.5%.

“Throughout 2022 we experienced ongoing recovery in our Aerospace business and persistent pressures in our Industrial businesses. With targeted restructuring actions underway, we are laying a stronger foundation upon which to improve our operational and financial performance moving forward. We anticipate demonstrated progress in 2023 as we drive our ‘Integrate, Consolidate, and Rationalize’ initiative deep into the enterprise which will benefit margins and improve our working capital efficiency,” said Julie K. Streich, Senior Vice President, Finance and Chief Financial Officer, Barnes.

Notes:
(1)  The Company defines free cash flow as net cash provided by operating activities less capital expenditures.  The Company believes that the free cash flow metric is useful to investors and management as a measure of cash generated by business operations that can be used to invest in future growth, pay dividends, repurchase stock and reduce debt.  This metric can also be used to evaluate the Company's ability to generate cash flow from business operations and the impact that this cash flow has on the Company's liquidity.  
 
(2)  For the purpose of calculating the cash conversion ratio, the Company has excluded the goodwill impairment charge recorded in the second quarter of 2022 related to the Automation reporting unit from 2022 net income.

Notes:
(1) The Company has excluded the following from its "as adjusted" financial measurements for 2022:  1) charges related to restructuring activities and actions at certain businesses, including $20.6M reflected within operating profit ($10.8M in the fourth quarter) and $1.4M reflected within other expense (income), net ($0.0M in the fourth quarter), 2) tax charges resulting from the CEO transition in 2022 and 3) the goodwill impairment charge recorded in the second quarter of 2022 related to the Automation reporting unit.  The Company has excluded the following from its "as adjusted" financial measurements for 2021:  1) the impact of certain foreign tax matters including a benefit related to the Italy tax realignment, partially offset by a charge related to the UK tax rate and 2) charges related to restructuring actions at certain businesses.  The tax effects of the restructuring actions were calculated based on the respective tax jurisdictions and ranged from approximately 15% to approximately 30%.  The goodwill impairment charge did not have a tax effect as it is not deductible for book purposes.  Management believes that these adjustments provide the Company and its investors with an indication of our baseline performance excluding items that are not considered to be reflective of our ongoing results.  Management does not intend results excluding the adjustments to represent results as defined by GAAP, and the reader should not consider it as an alternative measurement calculated in accordance with GAAP, or as an indicator of the Company's performance. Accordingly, the measurements have limitations depending on their use.
