Dynamic Materials Reports Third Quarter Financial Results


BOULDER, CO--(Marketwired - Oct 27, 2015) -  Dynamic Materials Corporation (DMC) (NASDAQ: BOOM)

  • Third quarter sales reported at $39.5 million; gross margin at 26%
  • Loss from operations of $656,000, excluding $285,000 in restructuring expenses*
  • Adjusted EBITDA* of $2.5 million
  • NobelClad reports strongest bookings quarter in more than a year
  • DynaEnergetics commercializes DynaStage; institutes cost cutting initiatives in face of sustained energy-industry weakness

Dynamic Materials Corporation (DMC) (NASDAQ: BOOM) today reported financial results for its third quarter and nine-month period ended September 30, 2015.

Third quarter sales were $39.5 million, down 24% from $51.9 million in the 2014 third quarter. Approximately $3.5 million of the decline was related to unfavorable foreign currency exchange translation. Excluding the effect of foreign currency translation, sales declined 17%, reflecting the impact of sharply lower oil and gas drilling and completion activity on the Company's DynaEnergetics business, and the timing of orders on the Company's NobelClad segment.

Gross margin was 26% versus 29% in last year's third quarter. Less favorable product mix and the impact of lower sales volume on fixed overhead costs led to the decline.

Operating loss was $941,000 versus operating income of $3.4 million in the third quarter of 2014. Excluding restructuring expenses* of $285,000, third quarter operating loss was $656,000, and included $338,000 in bad debt expense, primarily related to DynaEnergetics. Loss from continuing operations was $4.2 million, or $0.30 per diluted share, versus income from continuing operations of $2.3 million, or $0.17 per diluted share, in the third quarter of 2014. Ex-items*, loss from continuing operations was $4.0 million, or $0.29 per diluted share. Operating loss from continuing operations in this year's third quarter included other expense of $1.5 million related to unrealized foreign currency transaction losses.

The Company recorded third quarter income tax expense from continuing operations, ex-items, of $1.6 million. As was the case in the 2015-second quarter, DMC could recognize only minimal net tax benefits on entities with operating losses during the quarter. These limitations, combined with tax expense from the profitable entities, led to the consolidated tax expense despite a pretax loss from continuing operations. 

Third quarter adjusted EBITDA* was $2.5 million versus $7.8 million in the same quarter last year. 

NobelClad
NobelClad reported sales of $21.3 million, down 10% from $23.6 million in the year-ago third quarter. Approximately $1.9 million of the $2.3 million decline was due to unfavorable foreign currency exchange translation. The balance related to shipment delays resulting from a labor strike at a key metals supplier, as well as delays in the receipt of certain expected orders. Management now believes a portion of these orders will be awarded in the fourth quarter and the balance in 2016. Operating income was $1.7 million versus $1.9 million in last year's third quarter. Adjusted EBITDA was $2.7 million versus $3.6 million in the same period last year. NobelClad reported its strongest bookings performance in five quarters, and its order backlog increased to $41.7 million from $37.7 million at the end of the second quarter.

DynaEnergetics
DynaEnergetics reported sales of $18.2 million, down 36% from $28.3 million in last year's third quarter. Approximately $1.6 million of the $10.1 million sales decline was due to unfavorable foreign currency exchange translation. The balance was due to the steep decline in well completion activity and an associated drop in demand for perforating products. Operating loss was $655,000 versus operating income of $3.8 million in the year-ago third quarter. Adjusted EBITDA was $1.1 million versus $5.5 million in the comparable prior-year quarter. 

Nine-Month Results
Consolidated sales for the nine-month period were $125.1 million, down 17% from sales of $150.6 million in the same period last year. Approximately $11.1 million of the $25.5 million sales decline was due to unfavorable foreign currency exchange translation. Gross margin declined to 27% from 30% in the comparable period a year ago, primarily due to a lower-margin business and product mix and the impact of lower sales volumes on fixed manufacturing overhead expenses. 

Operating loss was $4.2 million versus operating income of $10.3 million during last year's nine-month period. Excluding $3.4 million of restructuring expenses, operating loss was $833,000 for this year's nine-month period. Loss from continuing operations was $7.9 million, or $0.57 per diluted share, versus income from continuing operations of $6.2 million, or $0.45 per diluted share, in the nine-month period last year. Ex-items, loss from continuing operations for the nine-month period was $5.3 million, or $0.38 per diluted share. Adjusted EBITDA was $9.1 million versus $23.0 million at the nine-month mark in 2014.

NobelClad
NobelClad reported nine-month sales of $66.7 million, down 10% from $74.4 million at the nine-month mark last year. Approximately $6.4 million of the $7.7 million sales decline was due to unfavorable foreign currency exchange translation. Operating income was $4.5 million versus $6.4 million, and adjusted EBITDA was $8.2 million versus $11.4 million in last year's nine-month period. 

DynaEnergetics
Nine-month sales at DynaEnergetics were $58.4 million, down 23% from $76.2 million in last year's nine-month period. Approximately $4.7 million of the $17.8 million sales decline was due to unfavorable foreign currency exchange translation. Operating loss was $201,000 versus operating income of $11.1 million in the comparable year-ago period. Adjusted EBITDA was $5.6 million versus $16.0 million in last year's nine-month period.

Management Commentary
"Despite very challenging conditions in our core energy markets, we made progress on several key initiatives during the third quarter," said Kevin Longe, CEO. "DynaEnergetics completed field trials of its factory-assembled DynaStage perforating system and entered into a Principal Partner agreement with Weatherford International, our primary testing partner of the DynaStage system and one of the world's largest oilfield service companies. The sales teams from both DynaEnergetics and Weatherford have commenced a series of on-site demonstrations for several leading exploration and production companies. These efforts are generating significant interest in DynaStage, and in our broader portfolio of perforating products and technologies. Weatherford is responding to multiple requests for proposals regarding the adoption of DynaStage, and is continuing to deploy the system with the customers that were involved in field trials.

"We are in discussions with several additional wireline companies about entering into commercial partnerships for DynaStage sales. These include a large, international service provider and two companies with operations throughout North America."

Longe continued, "Our NobelClad business reported its best bookings performance since last year's second quarter. Order activity improved from both the downstream oil and gas and chemical sectors, and bookings have remained relatively strong during the first part of the fourth quarter. These orders should lead to a further improvement in NobelClad's backlog as it enters 2016."

"While we are encouraged by our continued achievements, sustained low oil and gas prices have suppressed capital spending in the energy industry," Longe added. "We have responded with a series of additional cost-control measures, including a shortened workweek at DynaEnergetics' German production facility, a reduction in force at DynaEnergetics' headquarters in Troisdorf, Germany; the elimination of shifts at both of DynaEnergetics U.S. gun loading facilities; and the closure of a distribution facility in Texas."

Longe added, "While market conditions have necessitated structural changes to our businesses, the ongoing execution of our strategy has strengthened the Company's competitive position and elevated our profile within the global energy and industrial end markets. The advanced perforating systems from DynaEnergetics are addressing the oil and gas industry's demand for lower completion costs, increased reliability and improved safety at the wellhead. At NobelClad, we are benefitting from the more consultative role we are playing with end users of our products. We are confident the investments we are making in new technologies, products, customer support and market development have enhanced our prospects for success when our end markets recover." 

Guidance
Michael Kuta, chief financial officer, said the continued weakness in the of the oil and gas markets has led management to revise its financial forecasts for the balance of fiscal 2015. Full-year sales are expected to be down 17% to 22% from the $202.6 million reported in 2014. The Company's previous forecast called for a year-over-year sales decline of between 8% and 12%. Full-year gross margin is expected in a range of 25% to 27% versus the 30% reported in 2014, and down from a prior forecast range of 26% to 28%.

For the fourth quarter, Kuta said sales are expected to be down 25% to 30% versus the $52 million reported in the 2014 fourth quarter. Fourth quarter gross margin is expected to be in a range of 24% to 26% versus the 30% reported in last year's fourth quarter. Selling, general and administrative expense is expected to total approximately $9.5 million to $10.0 million for the fourth quarter, while amortization expense is anticipated to be approximately $1.0 million. 

"We expect to incur up to $500,000 in fourth quarter charges related to our restructuring program," Kuta said. "Given the decline in market activity, we are closely managing cash and monitoring compliance with the financial covenants in our credit agreement."

*Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Adjusted EBITDA, as well as income measures that exclude restructuring expenses (ex-items), are non-GAAP (generally accepted accounting principles) financial measures used by management to measure operating performance. Non-GAAP results are presented only as a supplement to the financial statements based on U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). The non-GAAP financial information is provided to enhance the reader's understanding of DMC's financial performance, but no non-GAAP measure should be considered in isolation or as a substitute for financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. Reconciliations of the most directly comparable GAAP measures to non-GAAP measures are provided within the schedules attached to this release.

EBITDA is defined as net income plus or minus net interest plus taxes, depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA excludes from EBITDA stock-based compensation, restructuring and impairment charges and, when appropriate, other items that management does not utilize in assessing DMC's operating performance (as further described in the attached financial schedules). None of these non-GAAP financial measures are recognized terms under GAAP and do not purport to be an alternative to net income as an indicator of operating performance or any other GAAP measure.

Management uses these non-GAAP measures in its operational and financial decision-making, believing that it is useful to eliminate certain items in order to focus on what it deems to be a more reliable indicator of ongoing operating performance. As a result, internal management reports used during monthly operating reviews feature the adjusted EBITDA. In addition, during 2014 DMC management incentive awards were based, in part, on the amount of adjusted EBITDA achieved during the year. Management also believes that investors may find non-GAAP financial measures useful for the same reasons, although investors are cautioned that non-GAAP financial measures are not a substitute for GAAP disclosures. EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA are also used by research analysts, investment bankers and lenders to assess operating performance. For example, a measure similar to EBITDA is required by the lenders under DMC's credit facility.

Because not all companies use identical calculations, DMC's presentation of non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies. However, these measures can still be useful in evaluating the company's performance against its peer companies because management believes the measures provide users with valuable insight into key components of GAAP financial disclosures. For example, a company with greater GAAP net income may not be as appealing to investors if its net income is more heavily comprised of gains on asset sales. Likewise, eliminating the effects of interest income and expense moderates the impact of a company's capital structure on its performance.

All of the items included in the reconciliation from net income to EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA are either (i) non-cash items (e.g., depreciation, amortization of purchased intangibles and stock-based compensation) or (ii) items that management does not consider to be useful in assessing DMC's operating performance (e.g., income taxes, restructuring and impairment charges and gain on sale of assets). In the case of the non-cash items, management believes that investors can better assess the company's operating performance if the measures are presented without such items because, unlike cash expenses, these adjustments do not affect DMC's ability to generate free cash flow or invest in its business. For example, by adjusting for depreciation and amortization in computing EBITDA, users can compare operating performance without regard to different accounting determinations such as useful life. In the case of the other items, management believes that investors can better assess operating performance if the measures are presented without these items because their financial impact does not reflect ongoing operating performance.
