BROOMFIELD, Colo., Feb. 22, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- DMC Global Inc. (NASDAQ:BOOM) today reported financial results for its fourth quarter ended December 31, 2023.

Michael Kuta, president and CEO, said, "The fourth quarter marked the end of a milestone year for DMC. In addition to reporting record sales, adjusted EBITDA and free cash flow, we refined the operating strategies of our three businesses and initiated a review of alternative structures for DMC's portfolio as part of a broader strategy for enhancing stakeholder value.

"At the business level, the fourth quarter was notable for the varied conditions across our industrial end markets. At Arcadia, our architectural building products business, lower pricing impacted several of our markets in the western and southwestern United States. Arcadia's fourth quarter sales were $68.0 million, down 9% from the 2022 fourth quarter. Adjusted EBITDA margin improved to 13.6% from 9.6% in the comparable 2022 fourth quarter, as the decline in product pricing was not as pronounced as the drop in raw material costs.

"DynaEnergetics, our oilfield products business, reported continued strong demand in its international and North American markets. However, industry consolidation in the United States impacted pricing. Dyna's fourth quarter sales were $75.3 million, down 3% versus the 2022 fourth quarter, but up 3% sequentially. Adjusted EBITDA margin was 12.3% versus 18.6% in the prior-year fourth quarter and 17.2% in the 2023 third quarter. We expect the new automation and operational-excellence initiatives coming on-line in 2024 will improve profitability at Dyna.

"NobelClad, our composite metals business, continued to capitalize on healthy market conditions and delivered a very strong fourth quarter. Sales of $30.8 million were up 33% year-over-year. The increase, combined with a favorable product mix, led to adjusted EBITDA margins of 24.7%, up from 14.8% in the 2022 fourth quarter.

"While challenging conditions in Arcadia's markets will lead to a soft first quarter, we anticipate the business will experience improved demand during the balance of the year. Moreover, the recent addition of new painting capacity has improved Arcadia's ability to capitalize on expected increases in activity.

"At Dyna, strong demand for the new Gravity 2.0 self-orienting perforating system should be additive to the expected margin benefits of improved manufacturing efficiencies. We believe 2024 will be another strong year at NobelClad, as there are a broad range of large project opportunities for both traditional and new clad-plate applications.

"As we enter 2024, our primary objective is to unlock value for DMC's shareholders," Kuta said. "Two key steps in this process are the simplification of our portfolio and maximizing the long-term growth opportunities at Arcadia. We are working with our financial advisors to explore strategic alternatives for NobelClad and DynaEnergetics, two valuable and innovative businesses that will continue to lead their respective industries. We also intend to capitalize on Arcadia's differentiated business model and large addressable market, and are pursuing a range of compelling growth initiatives."

Eric Walter, CFO, said "Our new $300 million senior secured credit facility has strengthened DMC's balance sheet and enhanced our financial flexibility as we execute our strategy. We believe we can fund our growth programs while maintaining our leverage and debt-service costs at prudent levels."

Kuta added, "We have the strategy, the leadership team and the capital structure to be successful. We also have an extraordinary team of dedicated employees who have enabled the success of our businesses. I sincerely thank them for their continued dedication."

*Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In addition to disclosing financial results that are determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (GAAP), the Company also discloses certain non-GAAP financial measures that we use in operational and financial decision making. Non-GAAP financial measures include the following:

EBITDA: defined as net income (loss) plus net interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization.
Adjusted EBITDA: excludes from EBITDA stock-based compensation, restructuring expenses and asset impairment charges (if applicable) and, when appropriate, nonrecurring items that management does not utilize in assessing DMC's operating performance (as further described in the tables below).
Adjusted EBITDA attributable to DMC Global Inc. stockholders: excludes the Adjusted EBITDA attributable to the 40% redeemable noncontrolling interest in Arcadia Products.
Adjusted EBITDA for DMC business segments: defined as operating income (loss) plus depreciation, amortization, allocated stock-based compensation (if applicable), restructuring expenses and asset impairment charges (if applicable) and, when appropriate, nonrecurring items that management does not utilize in assessing operating performance.
Adjusted net income (loss): defined as net income (loss) attributable to DMC Global Inc. stockholders prior to the adjustment of redeemable noncontrolling interest plus restructuring expenses and asset impairment charges (if applicable) and, when appropriate, nonrecurring items that management does not utilize in assessing DMC's operating performance.
Adjusted diluted earnings per share: defined as diluted earnings per share attributable to DMC Global Inc. stockholders (exclusive of adjustment of redeemable noncontrolling interest) plus restructuring expenses and asset impairment charges (if applicable) and, when appropriate, nonrecurring items that management does not utilize in assessing DMC's operating performance.
Net debt: defined as total debt less total cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities.
Free-cash flow: defined as cash flows provided by (used in) operating activities less net acquisitions of property, plant and equipment.

Management believes providing these additional financial measures is useful to investors in understanding the Company's operating performance, including the effects of restructuring, impairment, and other nonrecurring charges, as well as its liquidity. Management typically monitors the business utilizing the above non-GAAP measures, in addition to GAAP results, to understand and compare operating results across accounting periods, and certain management incentive awards are based, in part, on these measures. The presence of non-GAAP financial measures in this report is not intended to suggest that such measures be considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or as superior to, DMC's GAAP information, and investors are cautioned that the non-GAAP financial measures are limited in their usefulness.

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.
