KOKOMO, Ind., Feb. 02, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Haynes International, Inc. (NASDAQ GM: HAYN) (the “Company”), a leading developer, manufacturer and marketer of technologically advanced high-performance alloys, today reported financial results for its first fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2022. In addition, the Company announced that its Board of Directors has authorized a regular quarterly cash dividend of $0.22 per outstanding share.
“Year-on-year revenue growth was 30% or higher in each of our major markets in the first quarter of fiscal 2023 with total revenue up 33.4%. Our aerospace business continues to increase rapidly, and was 48.6% of our first quarter revenue, driven by strong single-aisle demand, along with the first signs of double-aisle demand beginning to return. In addition, our backlog has increased for 21 consecutive months and now is at a record $408 million”, said Michael L. Shor, President and Chief Executive Officer. “Raw material headwinds in the quarter were higher than we originally estimated primarily due to declining cobalt prices. Excluding the estimated raw material impact, our adjusted gross margin remained above 21% as we continue to successfully offset inflation with our high-value differentiated products and services, our innovative alloy and application development, and our variable cost improvement initiatives.”
1st Quarter Results
Net Revenues. Net revenues were $132.7 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2023, an increase of 33.4% from the same period of fiscal 2022 due to increases in volume in key markets, combined with increases in average selling price per pound in all markets. The increase in pounds sold is due to strong sales in the aerospace market, as well as the industrial gas turbine market, compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2022. The increase in product average selling price per pound largely reflects price increases and other sales factors, which increased the average selling price per pound by approximately $4.19, and higher market prices of raw materials, which increased average selling price per pound by approximately $1.07, partially offset by a change in product mix, which decreased average selling price per pound by approximately $1.64.
Cost of Sales. Cost of sales was $109.6 million, or 82.6% of net revenues, in the first quarter of fiscal 2023 compared to $81.7 million, or 82.1% of net revenues, in the same period of fiscal 2022. The 0.5% increase in cost of sales as a percentage of revenues was primarily attributable to higher raw material costs flowing through cost of goods sold, partially offset by variable cost saving measures.
Gross Profit. As a result of the above factors, gross profit was $23.0 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2023, an increase of $5.3 million from the same period of fiscal 2022. Gross profit as a percentage of net revenue decreased to 17.4% in the first quarter of fiscal 2023 as compared to 17.9% in the same period of fiscal 2022. The first quarter of fiscal 2023 was adversely affected by increasing raw material prices included in cost of sales relative to the impact of raw material prices in selling prices which lowered gross margin. Partially offsetting the compression of margins due to raw material price changes was increased gross profit generated from variable cost saving measures and a higher utilization of fixed costs driven from greater volumes shipped.
Selling, General and Administrative Expense. Selling, general and administrative expense was $11.0 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2023, a decrease of $0.4 million, or 3.6%, from the same period of fiscal 2022. The 3.1% decrease in selling, general and administrative expense as a percentage of net revenues was largely driven by higher net revenues and the benefit of lower expenses in fiscal 2023. Additionally, exchange rate losses of $(0.6) million recorded in first quarter of fiscal 2022 also contributed to the decrease in expenses from the first quarter of fiscal 2022 to the first quarter of fiscal 2023.
Research and Technical Expense. Research and technical expense was $1.0 million, or 0.7% of net revenue, for the first quarter of fiscal 2023, compared to $0.9 million, or 0.9% of net revenue, in the same period of fiscal 2022.
Operating Income/(Loss). As a result of the above factors, including increased sales volume, higher pricing as well as continued cost reductions leading to improved gross profit, operating income in the first quarter of fiscal 2023 was $11.1 million compared to $5.5 million in the same period of fiscal 2022.
Nonoperating retirement benefit expense. Nonoperating retirement benefit expense was a benefit of $0.4 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2023 compared to a benefit of $1.1 million in the same period of fiscal 2022. The lower benefit recorded in nonoperating retirement benefit was primarily driven by an increase in the discount rate used in the actuarial valuation of the U.S. pension plan liability as of September 30, 2022 which resulted in a higher interest cost component of nonoperating retirement benefit expense (income) in the first quarter of fiscal 2023 when compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2022. Partially offsetting the higher interest cost was the amortization of the actuarial gains of the U.S. pension plan liability in the first quarter of fiscal 2023.
Income Taxes. Income tax expense was $2.2 million during the first quarter of fiscal 2023, a difference of $0.6 million from expense of $1.6 million in the same period of fiscal 2022, driven primarily by a difference in income before income taxes of $3.7 million. The effective tax rate in the first quarter of fiscal 2023 was 22.5% as compared to 26.1% during the same period of fiscal 2022.
Net Income. As a result of the above factors, net income in the first quarter of fiscal 2023 was $7.7 million, compared to $4.7 million in the same period of fiscal 2022.
Volumes and Pricing
Volume shipped in the first quarter of fiscal 2023 was 4.6 million pounds. First quarter volume is typically impacted by holidays, planned maintenance outages and customers managing their calendar year-end balance sheets. As a result, volume dropped sequentially by 6.8% in the first quarter of fiscal 2023 compared to the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022, however compared to the same quarter in the prior fiscal year, volume increased 17.4%. Aerospace volume increased 17.3% along with a 13.5% increase in aerospace average selling price resulting in a 33.2% or $16.1 million aerospace revenue increase compared to the prior year. The volume increase is primarily driven by the single-aisle aircraft recovery. Volumes in the chemical processing industry (CPI) decreased by 1.0%, however CPI average selling price increased 31.5% resulting in a 30.2% or $5.2 million CPI revenue increase compared to the prior year. Industrial gas turbine (IGT) volumes were up 61.3% along with a 10.5% increase in the IGT average selling price resulting in a 78.3% or $11.4 million IGT revenue increase compared to the prior year. Other markets revenue increased 1.6%, and other revenue increased by 5.7%. Overall, volumes are expected to increase with the high level of backlog.
The Company has an ongoing strategy of increasing margins, recognizing the high-value, differentiated products and services it offers. The Company implemented multiple price increases for contract and non-contract business as market conditions improved and in response to higher inflation. Customer long-term agreements typically have adjustors for specific raw material prices and for changes in the producer price index to help cover general inflationary items. The product average selling price per pound in the first quarter of fiscal 2023 was $28.12, which increased 14.8% year-over-year primarily due to the noted price increases and raw material adjustors.
Gross Profit Margin Trend Performance
Gross profit margin was 17.4% in the first quarter of fiscal 2023 compared to 17.9% in the same period last year and 22.2% in fourth quarter of fiscal 2022. Volatility of raw materials, specifically nickel and cobalt, have impacted gross margins. During fiscal 2022 this impact was favorable due to rising raw material prices which increased gross margins, however in the first quarter of fiscal 2023 this impact was unfavorable due to decreasing raw material prices which lowered gross margins. Excluding this raw material impact, gross margin percentages in the past three quarters (including this quarter) remained above 21% as compared to the first and second quarters of fiscal 2022 where gross margin percentages excluding the raw material impact were 16-18%.
A significant strategic effort to improve gross margins has occurred over the past few years. As a result of this strategy, the Company reduced the volume breakeven point by over 25%. The Company previously struggled to be profitable at roughly 5.0 million pounds. With the current product mix, the Company can generate profits at lower volumes as first demonstrated in the third quarter of fiscal 2021, producing a positive net income at only 3.7 million pounds shipped. As volumes continue to rise, margin leverage is expected to continue with gross margins (excluding raw material impacts) of over 20% even with the inflation headwind.
Backlog
The Company experienced continued high levels of order entry over the past quarter. Backlog was a record $408.2 million at December 31, 2022, an increase of $34.4 million, or 9.2% from the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022 and an increase of $190.7 million, or 87.7% from the first quarter of fiscal 2022. In addition, the backlog has increased for 21 consecutive months. Backlog pounds increased 6.6% during the first quarter to approximately 13.6 million pounds. The increases were predominately in the aerospace and industrial gas turbine markets. The average selling price of products in the Company’s backlog increased by 2.5% in the first quarter of fiscal 2023 from the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022.
Capital Spending
During the first quarter of fiscal 2023, capital investment was $3.3 million, and total planned capital expenditures for fiscal 2023 are expected to be between $20.0 million and $24.0 million.
Working Capital
Controllable working capital, which includes accounts receivable, inventory, accounts payable and accrued expenses, was $402.0 million at December 31, 2022, an increase of $23.7 million, or 6.3%, from $378.3 million at September 30, 2022. The increase resulted primarily from inventory increasing by $33.0 million during the first three months of fiscal 2023, partially offset by accounts payable and accrued expenses increasing by $6.3 million and accounts receivable decreasing by $2.9 million during the same period.
Liquidity
The Company had cash and cash equivalents of $11.5 million at December 31, 2022 compared to $8.4 million at September 30, 2022. Additionally, the Company had $88.0 million of borrowings against the $160.0 million line of credit outstanding with remaining capacity available of $72.0 million as of December 31, 2022, putting total liquidity at $83.5 million.
Net cash used in operating activities in the first three months of fiscal 2023 was $7.0 million compared to net cash used in operating activities of $23.8 million in the first three months of fiscal 2022. The decrease in cash used in operating activities in the first three months of fiscal 2023 was driven by an increase in accounts payable and accrued expenses of $4.6 million as compared to a decrease of $13.3 million during the same period of fiscal 2022, a difference of $17.8 million, and higher net income of $7.7 million the first three months of fiscal 2023 as compared to net income of $4.7 million during the same period of fiscal 2022. This was partially offset by an increase in inventory of $29.2 million during the first three months of fiscal 2023 as compared to an increase in inventory of $22.7 million during the same period of fiscal 2022.
Net cash used in investing activities was $3.3 million in the first three months of fiscal 2023, which was comparable to investing activities of $3.3 million during the same period of fiscal 2022 due to a similar level of additions to property, plant and equipment.
Net cash provided by financing activities was $12.7 million in the first three months of fiscal 2023, a difference of $19.1 million from cash used in financing activities of $6.4 million during the first three months of fiscal 2022. This difference was primarily driven by a net borrowing of $13.3 million against the revolving line of credit during the first three months of fiscal 2023 compared to a net borrowing of $3.0 million during the same period of fiscal 2022 and proceeds from the exercise of stock options of $3.4 million during the first three months of fiscal 2023 as compared to proceeds from exercise of stock options of $0.1 million during the same period of fiscal 2022 and lower share repurchases of $0.8 million in the first three months of fiscal 2023 as compared to $6.6 million during the same period of fiscal 2022. Dividends paid of $2.8 million during the first three months of fiscal 2023 were comparable to same period of fiscal 2022.
Dividend Declared
On February 2, 2023, the Company announced that the Board of Directors declared a regular quarterly cash dividend of $0.22 per outstanding share of the Company’s common stock. The dividend is payable March 15, 2023 to stockholders of record at the close of business on March 1, 2023. Any future dividends will be at the discretion of the Board of Directors.
Guidance
Given the strength of the Company’s record backlog, along with the manpower and work-in-process inventory being put in place, the Company expects revenue and earnings in the second quarter of fiscal 2023 to be higher than both the first quarter of fiscal 2023 as well as the second quarter of last year. Further, the Company expects the full year fiscal 2023 to be 15-20% higher than fiscal 2022 for both revenue and earnings.

(Unaudited)
(in thousands, except share data)
Adjusted EBITDA
Adjusted EBITDA as reported herein refers to a financial measure that excludes from consolidated operating income (loss) non-cash charges for depreciation, amortization and stock compensation expense. Management believes that Adjusted EBITDA provides a relevant indicator of the Company’s value by eliminating the impact of financing and other non-cash impacts of past investments. Management uses its results excluding these non-cash amounts to evaluate its operating performance.

Adjusted Gross Profit Margin – Excluding estimated impact of nickel and cobalt fluctuations
Management believes that Gross profit margin – Excluding estimated impact of nickel and cobalt fluctuations provides a relevant indicator of the Company’s profitability by eliminating the impact of fluctuating impacts of nickel and cobalt prices which can compress or expand gross profit margin. The estimated gross margin impact from nickel and cobalt price fluctuations is derived from a model developed by the Company to measure how the price changes flow through net revenues and cost of sales. This model incorporates flow across each different type of pricing mechanism and the timing of how cost of nickel and cobalt flow to cost of sales including the impacts of the commodity price exposure of our scrap cycle. Management uses its results excluding these nickel and cobalt impacts to evaluate its operating performance.
