Hexcel Corporation (NYSE:HXL) today reported third quarter 2022 results including net sales of $365 million and adjusted diluted EPS of $0.33 per share.

Chairman, CEO and President Nick Stanage said, "We delivered strong operating leverage in the third quarter as we continue to execute and manage through operational headwinds. Demand remains robust, with strong pull in all our markets for lightweight advanced composites, especially as interest in more sustainable transportation increases. Our team remains flexible and focused on meeting that demand as we overcome challenges arising from this return to growth in the aftermath of the global pandemic."

Mr. Stanage continued, "As we head into the fourth quarter, we are narrowing our 2022 financial guidance ranges and raising our EPS midpoint based on our strong execution year to date. For the remainder of the year, we will continue our focus on maximizing production and sales, while continuing to drive efficiency and control costs. We anticipate a strong 2023 as supply chains recover, our new employees gain operational experience, and our customers further increase aircraft build rates. Our Hexcel team remains motivated and committed to achieving operational excellence, driving innovation and increasing shareholder value."

Markets

Sales in the third quarter of 2022 were $364.7 million compared to $333.8 million in the third quarter of 2021.

Commercial Aerospace

Commercial Aerospace sales of $209.1 million increased 25.1% (26.5% in constant currency) for the third quarter of 2022 compared to the third quarter of 2021 led by the Airbus A350 and A320neo programs. The sub-category Other Commercial Aerospace, which includes business jets and regional aircraft, increased 69.5% for the third quarter of 2022 compared to the third quarter of 2021. Business jets led the Other Commercial Aerospace growth, particularly Gulfstream and Dassault platforms.

Space & Defense

Space & Defense sales of $108.6 million decreased 1.6% (increased 0.2% in constant currency) for the quarter compared to the third quarter of 2021 due to the impact of foreign exchange rates on European military and space sales.

Industrial

Total Industrial sales of $47.0 million in the third quarter of 2022 decreased 16.4% (8.4% in constant currency) compared to the third quarter of 2021 as a result of lower wind energy sales and the negative impact of foreign exchange rates.

Consolidated Operations

Gross margin for the third quarter of 2022 was 22.4% compared to 19.8% in the third quarter of 2021 reflecting favorable operating leverage from higher sales volume. As a percentage of sales, selling, general and administrative and R&T expenses for the third quarter of 2022 were 11.1% compared to 12.7% for the third quarter of 2021. Adjusted operating income in the third quarter of 2022 was $41.2 million or 11.3% of sales, compared to $23.6 million, or 7.1% of sales in 2021. Other operating expense for both the third quarter of 2022 and 2021 included restructuring costs. The impact of exchange rates on operating income as a percent of sales was favorable by approximately 50 basis points in the third quarter of 2022 compared to the third quarter of 2021.

Year-to-Date 2022 Results

Sales for the first nine months of 2022 were $1,148.3 million compared to $964.4 million for the same period in 2021.

Commercial Aerospace (57% of YTD sales)

Commercial Aerospace sales of $655.6 million increased 39.9% (41.1% in constant currency) for the first nine months of 2022 compared to the first nine months of 2021 on higher narrowbody and Airbus A350 sales, partially offset by lower Boeing 787 sales. The sub-category Other Commercial Aerospace increased 71.8% for the first nine months of 2022 compared to the same period in 2021.

Space & Defense (30% of YTD sales)

Space & Defense sales of $338.7 million increased 2.9% (4.7% in constant currency) for the first nine months of 2022 as compared to the first nine months of 2021, led by the CH-53K program, civil rotorcraft, and Space sales, including satellites, launchers and rocket motors.

Industrial (13% of YTD sales)

Total Industrial sales of $154.0 million in the first nine months of 2022 decreased 7.7% (1.0% in constant currency) compared to the first nine months of 2021 as growth in automotive, recreation and other industrial markets was offset by lower wind energy sales and the negative impact of foreign exchange rates.

Consolidated Operations

Gross margin for the first nine months of 2022 was 22.5% compared to 18.8% in the prior year period, strengthening as higher capacity utilization led to improved cost absorption. As a percentage of sales, selling, general and administrative and R&T expenses for the first nine months of 2022 were 12.3% compared to 14.1% for the first nine months of 2021. Adjusted operating income for the first nine months of 2022 was $117.0 million or 10.2% of sales, compared to $44.8 million, or 4.6% of sales in 2021. Other operating income for the first nine months of 2022 included a pre-tax net gain of $19.4 million from the previously announced sale of a facility in Dublin, California, partially offset by restructuring costs. Other operating expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 primarily related to severance and restructuring. The impact of exchange rates on operating income as a percent of sales was favorable by approximately 30 basis points in the first nine months of 2022 compared to 2021.

Cash and other

The third quarter 2022 tax expense was $6.8 million and included a discrete tax charge of $1.3 million resulting from the true-up of a deferred tax item. The tax expense for the third quarter of 2021 was $5.1 million and included a discrete tax charge of $1.3 million primarily related to the remeasurement of the net U.S. state deferred tax liabilities. The tax expense for the first nine months of 2022 was $24.2 million. The tax expense for the first nine months of 2021 was $1.6 million and included a net discrete tax charge of $0.8 million primarily resulting from the revaluation of U.S. and foreign deferred tax liabilities. The underlying effective tax rate for 2022 is now expected to be 22%, representing a decrease from the prior expectations of 23%.
Net cash provided by operating activities in the first nine months of 2022 was $56.4 million, compared to $64.2 million for the first nine months of 2021. Working capital was a cash use of $115.0 million for the first nine months of 2022 and a use of $46.0 million for the comparable period in 2021. The increase in working capital supports growing sales and the higher inventory levels are a result of longer shipping lead times and holding a larger inventory buffer or safety stock to compensate for the continuing supply chain disruptions. Capital expenditures on a cash basis were $58.3 million for the first nine months of 2022 compared to $15.0 million for the first nine months of 2021 with the increase reflecting two previously announced ongoing construction projects; the construction of a research and technology innovation center in Salt Lake City, Utah and the expansion of Hexcel's engineered core operations in Morocco. Net cash used for investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, included the net proceeds of $21.2 million received from the sale of a facility in Dublin, California. Free cash flow was ($1.9) million in the first nine months of 2022 compared to $49.2 million in the first nine months of 2021. Free cash flow is defined as cash generated from operating activities less cash paid for capital expenditures. Capital expenditures on an accrual basis were $49.1 million and $14.3 million for the first nine months of 2022 and 2021, respectively.
The Company did not repurchase any common stock during the third quarter of 2022. The remaining authorization under the share repurchase program at September 30, 2022, was $217 million.
As announced today, the Board of Directors declared a quarterly dividend of $0.10 per share payable to stockholders of record as of November 4, 2022, with a payment date of November 14, 2022.

	(a)		The nine months ended September 30, 2022 included the net gain of $19.4 million from the sale of the Dublin, California facility and both the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2022 included restructuring costs. The quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2021 included restructuring costs primarily related to severance.
	(b)		The quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2022 included a discrete tax charge of $1.3 million resulting from the true-up of a deferred tax item. The quarter ended September 30, 2021 included a discrete tax charge of $1.3 million related to the remeasurement of net U.S. state deferred tax liabilities. The nine months ended September 30, 2021 included a net discrete tax charge of $0.8 million primarily resulting from the revaluation of U.S. and foreign deferred tax liabilities.

NOTE: Management believes that adjusted operating income (loss), adjusted net income (loss), adjusted diluted net income (loss) per share, the adjusted tax rate, and free cash flow, which are non-GAAP measures, are meaningful to investors because they provide a view of Hexcel with respect to the underlying operating results excluding special items. Special items represent significant charges or credits that are important to an understanding of Hexcel's overall operating results in the periods presented. Non-GAAP measurements are not recognized in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and should not be viewed as an alternative to GAAP measures of performance.
