Servotronics Announces Second Quarter 2023 Financial Results

-- Revenue and gross margin reflect solid improvement over prior year --

-- Results impacted by CPG divestiture, including asset impairment charges --

ELMA, N.Y., Aug. 10, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Servotronics, Inc. (NYSE American – SVT) a designer and manufacturer of servo-control components and other advanced technology products today reported financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2023.

Servotronics, Inc. (PRNewsfoto/Servotronics, Inc.)

As previously announced, during the second quarter, the Company decided to divest its Ontario Knife Company (OKC) assets, which comprise the primary assets of the Consumer Products Group (CPG). Accordingly, the financial results of the segment have been classified as discontinued operations for all periods presented. Unless otherwise noted, all financial results presented are based on continuing operations.  In addition, the Company has presented certain non-GAAP financial information, including non-GAAP adjusted operating income and adjusted operating margin, which management believes better reflects Servotronics' ongoing operations.

Highlights for the second quarter financial results include the following:

  • Consolidated revenues were $10.6 million, up 21.7% from $8.7 million in the second quarter of 2022.
  • Gross profit increased to $1.6 million or 14.6% of revenue in the second quarter, up from $1.0 million, or 11.7% of revenue in the second quarter of 2022.
  • Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) costs increased $1.4 million to $3.3 million in the second quarter of 2023 compared to $2.0 million in the second quarter of 2022. The increase in SG&A was primarily the result of non-recurring costs.
  • Operating loss for the quarter was $1.7 million compared with an operating loss of $0.9 million in the second quarter of 2022, with the increase due primarily to the non-recurring SG&A costs noted above.
  • The Company recorded a $2.6 million valuation allowance on its net deferred tax assets, resulting in income tax expense of $1.5 million in the 2023 second quarter, compared to an income tax benefit of $0.2 million in the 2022 second quarter.
  • Non-GAAP adjusted operating loss improved to $0.7 million, or 6.9% of sales compared to adjusted operating loss of $0.9 million, or 10.1% of sales in the second quarter of 2022.
  • Net loss from continuing operations was $3.3 million, or ($1.33) per diluted share in the second quarter of 2023 compared to a net loss from continuing operations of $0.8 million, or ($0.32) per diluted share in the second quarter of 2022. The change was primarily due to the impact of the non-recurring SG&A charges and deferred tax valuation allowance noted above.

"The second quarter marked several significant milestones in Servotronics' strategic transformation. We began the process to divest the assets of the CPG segment, allowing us to focus on our core Advanced Technology Group business.  On the financial front, we welcomed a new Chief Financial Officer and refinanced our line of credit.  While progressing our strategic plan, we also successfully defended the Company through a proxy contest at our annual meeting," said Chief Executive Officer William F. Farrell, Jr. "I am very pleased with the team and everything we accomplished in the second quarter. We are now well positioned to capitalize on positive market trends in the commercial aerospace market that will support our efforts to deliver sustainable growth and improved operating results."

CPG Divestiture

As part of the Company's strategic review, the Board and management team decided to pursue the sale of the assets of OKC.  The strategic review highlighted the key factors that drove the decision to sell the assets which included the history of slower growth in revenues, operating losses and a lack of strategic fit with the core Advanced Technology Group (ATG) business, and misalignment with the Company's key end markets.

The sale of the CPG business involved a specific process of soliciting potential buyers for the assets, evaluation of offers for the assets and determining the best alternative for Servotronics.  Ultimately, the Company accepted the cash offer of $2.1 million from Blue Ridge Knives as it maximized the value of the assets of the business.  The sale proceeds were less than the carrying value of the assets on Servotronics' balance sheet, resulting in a non-cash loss on the sale of $3.2 million.  In addition, the estimated loss on the wind down of the CPG operations as well as results of operating the business during the quarter resulted in the loss from discontinued operations of $6.2 million in the second quarter of 2023.

Revenues increased to $10.6 million in the 2023 second quarter, up 21.7% from the second quarter of 2022, due primarily to favorable pricing and increased sales volume driven by the continued recovery of the commercial aircraft market.

For the second quarter, gross profit increased 51.8% to $1.6 million, or 14.6% of sales, up from $1.0 million, or 11.7% of sales in the prior-year period. Gross profit benefited from increased sales volumes.  In addition, the Company is implementing continuous improvement, value stream and lean initiatives to create more efficient production processes to improve product flow, reduce the amount of work-in-process and scrap inventory, leading to increased production output.

Second-quarter SG&A expenses increased approximately $1.4 million compared to the prior-year period. SG&A expenses were primarily driven by approximately $1.0 million of non-recurring expenses during the quarter including severance, costs related to refinancing credit lines, and costs related to the successful defense of the contested proxy at the Company's annual meeting of shareholders.

Non-GAAP adjusted operating loss for the second quarter of 2023, which excludes those non-recurring SG&A costs, improved to $0.7 million loss compared with $0.9 million loss in the 2022 second quarter.  Net loss from continuing operations for the second quarter was $3.3 million, or ($1.33) per diluted share compared to net loss from continuing operations of $0.8 million, or ($0.32) per diluted share in the second quarter of 2022.

Mr. Farrell concluded, "We took several decisive actions during the second quarter that will bring us closer to achieving our strategic plan for Servotronics.  While these actions had an unfavorable effect on our second-quarter GAAP results with a number of non-recuring charges, we are seeing progress in improving our operating results and expect continued improvements in the second half of 2023. We generated a 52% increase in gross profit on a 22% increase in sales, highlighting our efforts to improve operating efficiencies within the business which we believe will drive operating leverage.  I am confident that Servotronics will continue to gain share in our key markets and provide superior returns to our shareholders as we execute on our strategic priorities and maintain integrity, accountability, and transparency throughout all aspects of our business."
