EnerSys (NYSE: ENS), the global leader in stored energy solutions for industrial applications, announced today results for its third quarter of fiscal 2024, which ended on December 31, 2023.

Message from the CEO

We were pleased to deliver the third quarter of fiscal 2024 with adjusted EPS above the midpoint of our guidance range. Sales were lower versus the prior year as we continue to see demand pauses in the telecom and broadband markets as well as a return to normalcy in Motive Power orders, partially offset by strength in Specialty, services, and data centers, particularly in the Americas. We continue to hold price, a testament to the customer value we deliver. Order rates improved in the quarter with book-to-bill of 1.0. Motive Power delivered strong operating earnings in the quarter supported by ongoing increases in maintenance-free system sales. We are making consistent progress towards delivering the first 15 Fast Charge & Storage (FC&S) systems for our launch customer with installations targeted to begin this summer and our sales pipeline continues to grow as this new line of business has begun to materialize. We are continuing to take decisive actions to reduce our costs in the current lower telecom and broadband demand environment and are rebalancing our production lines to increase productivity.

During the quarter, based on additional proposed regulations issued by the U.S. Department of Treasury regarding Section 45X of the Internal Revenue Code, we concluded that more of our battery sales than previously anticipated qualify for the related tax credits, which supported our gross margin of 28.9%. As a result, we recorded a benefit of $59 million, including $29 million of retroactive credits. We now expect our estimated annual IRC 45X tax credits to be in the range of $120 million to $160 million.

Our balance sheet was a highlight this quarter with operating cash flow conversion of 177% and adjusted free cash flow conversion(b) 106%, which lowered leverage to 1.1X EBITDA. We reduced inventory through a targeted approach to specific raw materials and products.

We continue to methodically execute on our strategic growth plans. We remain highly confident in EnerSys’s position as a global leader in electrification and energy storage applications, with demand driven by critical global megatrends. With our industry-leading system solutions and strong customer relationships, we are well-positioned for growth in our diverse end markets.

David M. Shaffer, President and Chief Executive Officer, EnerSys

Summary of Results

Third Quarter 2024

Net sales for the third quarter of fiscal 2024 were $861.5 million, a decrease of 6.4% from the prior year third quarter net sales of $920.2 million. The decrease compared to prior year quarter was the result of a 7% decrease in organic volume, partially offset by a 1% increase in pricing.

Net earnings attributable to EnerSys stockholders (“Net earnings”) for the third quarter of fiscal 2024 was $76.2 million, or $1.86 per diluted share, which included an unfavorable highlighted net of tax impact of $28.8 million, or $0.70 per diluted share, from highlighted items described in further detail in the tables shown below, reconciling non-GAAP adjusted financial measures to reported amounts.

Net earnings for the third quarter of fiscal 2023 was $44.4 million, or $1.08 per diluted share, which included an unfavorable highlighted net of tax impact of $7.9 million, or $0.19 per diluted share, from highlighted items described in further detail in the tables shown below, reconciling non-GAAP adjusted financial measures to reported amounts.

Excluding these highlighted items, adjusted Net earnings per diluted share for the third quarter of fiscal 2024, on a non-GAAP basis, were $2.56, compared to the guidance of $2.50 to $2.60 per diluted share for the third quarter given by the Company on December 19, 2023. These earnings compare to the prior year third quarter adjusted Net earnings of $1.27 per diluted share. Please refer to the section included herein under the heading “Reconciliations of GAAP to Non-GAAP Financial Measures” for a discussion of the Company’s use of non-GAAP adjusted financial information, which includes tables reconciling GAAP and non-GAAP adjusted financial measures for the quarters ended December 31, 2023 and January 1, 2023.

In the first quarter of fiscal 2024, we introduced a new line of business, New Ventures, that includes energy storage and management systems for demand charge reduction, utility back-up power, and dynamic fast charging for electric vehicles. The financial results of the New Ventures segment includes start up operating expenses and is included in the Corporate and other line in our operating earnings.

Fiscal Year to Date 2024

Net sales for the nine months of fiscal 2024 were $2,671.1 million, a decrease of 1.7% from the prior year nine months net sales of $2,718.6 million. This decrease was due to an 8% decrease in organic volume, partially offset by a 5% increase in pricing and a 1% increase in foreign currency translation.

Net earnings for the nine months of fiscal 2024 was $208.2 million, or $5.02 per diluted share, which included an unfavorable highlighted net of tax impact of $51.9 million, or $1.25 per diluted share, from highlighted items described in further detail in the tables shown below, reconciling non-GAAP adjusted financial measures to reported amounts.

Net earnings for the nine months of fiscal 2023 was $109.9 million, or $2.66 per diluted share, which included an unfavorable highlighted net of tax impact of $35.5 million, or $0.86 per diluted share, from highlighted items described in further detail in the tables shown below, reconciling non-GAAP adjusted financial measures to reported amounts.

Adjusted Net earnings per diluted share for the nine months of fiscal 2024, on a non-GAAP basis, were $6.27. This compares to the prior year nine months adjusted Net earnings of $3.52 per diluted share. Please refer to the section included herein under the heading “Reconciliations of GAAP to Non-GAAP Financial Measures” for a discussion of the Company’s use of non-GAAP adjusted financial information.

Fourth Quarter 2024 Outlook

In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2024, we expect:

  • Adjusted diluted earnings per share in the range of $1.98 to $2.08, inclusive of $0.80 to $0.90 from IRC 45X tax benefits under the IRA. Note that the IRS has not yet finalized guidance related to section 45X, which could materially increase or decrease the quantity of our U.S. produced batteries that qualify for this credit.
  • Gross margin in the range of 26.0% to 28.0%, including 350bps to 410bps from IRA credits.
  • For the full year of fiscal 2024, we expect capital expenditures to be in the range of $80 million to $100 million.

"We remain optimistic about the trajectory of our business and are particularly pleased with our continued ability to maintain pricing. While we are seeing healthy demand trends in the majority of our end markets, we are managing our business prudently to navigate the temporary spending pauses by our telecom and broadband customers. We are well-positioned to capitalize on market opportunities as we deliver innovative products that are strategically aligned with secular trends," said Andrea Funk, EnerSys Chief Financial Officer.

Please refer to the section included herein under the heading “Reconciliations of GAAP to Non-GAAP Financial Measures” for a discussion of the Company’s use of non-GAAP adjusted financial information.

Reconciliations of GAAP to Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This press release contains financial information determined by methods other than in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, ("GAAP"). EnerSys' management uses the non-GAAP measures “adjusted Net earnings”, “adjusted Diluted EPS”, “adjusted operating earnings”, "adjusted gross margin", “adjusted EBITDA”, "adjusted EBITDA per credit agreement", "net debt", "net leverage ratio", " adjusted free cash flow conversion", “net sales at constant currency”, and "net sales growth rate at constant currency” as applicable, in their analysis of the Company's performance. Adjusted Net earnings, adjusted gross margin, and adjusted operating earnings measures, as used by EnerSys in past quarters and years, adjusts Net earnings and operating earnings determined in accordance with GAAP to reflect changes in financial results associated with the Company's restructuring initiatives and other highlighted charges and income items. Adjusted EBITDA is a key performance measure that our management uses to assess our operating performance. Because Adjusted EBITDA facilitates internal comparisons of our historical operating performance on a more consistent basis, we use this measure as an overall assessment of our performance, to evaluate the effectiveness of our business strategies and for business planning purposes. We calculate Adjusted EBITDA as net income before interest income, interest expense, other (income) expense net, provision (benefit) for income taxes, depreciation and amortization, further adjusted to exclude restructuring and exit activities, impairment of goodwill, indefinite-lived intangibles and other assets, acquisition activities and those charges and credits that are not directly related to operating unit performance. EBITDA is calculated as net income before interest income, interest expense, other (income) expense net, provision (benefit) for income taxes, depreciation and amortization. We define non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA per credit agreement as net earnings determined in accordance with GAAP for interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, and certain charges or credits as permitted by our credit agreements, that were recorded during the periods presented. We define non-GAAP net debt as total debt, finance lease obligations and letters of credit, net of all cash and cash equivalents, as defined in the Fourth Amended Credit Facility on the balance sheet as of the end of the most recent fiscal quarter. We define non-GAAP net leverage ratio as non-GAAP net debt divided by last twelve months non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA per credit agreement. We define non-GAAP free cash flow as net cash provided by or used in operating activities less capital expenditures. We define non-GAAP adjusted free cash flow conversion as free cash flow divided by adjusted net earnings. Free cash flow and adjusted free cash flow conversion are used by investors, financial analysts, rating agencies and management to help evaluate the Company’s ability to generate cash to pursue incremental opportunities aimed toward enhancing shareholder value. We define non-GAAP constant currency net sales as total net sales excluding the effect of foreign exchange rate movements, and we use it to determine the constant currency growth rate on a year-on-year basis. Non-GAAP constant currency revenues are calculated by translating current period revenues using the prior comparative periods’ actual exchange rates, rather than the actual exchange rates in effect during the current period. Constant currency net sales growth rate is calculated by determining the difference between current period non-GAAP constant currency net sales and current period reported net sales divided by prior period as reported net sales. Management believes the presentation of these financial measures reflecting these non-GAAP adjustments provides important supplemental information in evaluating the operating results of the Company as distinct from results that include items that are not indicative of ongoing operating results and overall business performance; in particular, those charges that the Company incurs as a result of restructuring activities, impairment of goodwill and indefinite-lived intangibles and other assets, acquisition activities and those charges and credits that are not directly related to operating unit performance, such as significant legal proceedings, amortization of Alpha and NorthStar related intangible assets (and, beginning in fiscal 2024, amortization of all intangible assets) and tax valuation allowance changes, including those related to the AHV (Old-Age and Survivors Insurance) Financing (TRAF) in Switzerland. Because these charges are not incurred as a result of ongoing operations, or are incurred as a result of a potential or previous acquisition, they are not as helpful a measure of the performance of our underlying business, particularly in light of their unpredictable nature and are difficult to forecast. Although we exclude the amortization of purchased intangibles from these non-GAAP measures, management believes that it is important for investors to understand that such intangible assets were recorded as part of purchase accounting and contribute to revenue generation.

Income tax effects of non-GAAP adjustments are calculated using the applicable statutory tax rate for the jurisdictions in which the charges (benefits) are incurred, while taking into consideration any valuation allowances. For those items which are non-taxable, the tax expense (benefit) is calculated at 0%.

EnerSys does not provide a quantitative reconciliation of the company’s projected range for adjusted diluted earnings per share for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2024 to diluted earnings per share, which is the most directly comparable GAAP measure, in reliance on the unreasonable efforts exception provided under Item 10(e)(1)(i)(B) of Regulation S-K. EnerSys' adjusted diluted earnings per share guidance for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2024 excludes certain items, including but not limited to certain non-cash, large and/or unpredictable charges and benefits, charges from restructuring and exit activities, impairment of goodwill and indefinite-lived intangibles, acquisition and disposition activities, legal judgments, settlements, or other matters, and tax positions, that are inherently uncertain and difficult to predict, can be dependent on future events that are less capable of being controlled or reliably predicted by management and are not part of the Company's routine operating activities can be dependent on future events that are less capable of being controlled or reliably predicted by management and are not part of the Company's routine operating activities. Due to the uncertainty of the occurrence or timing of these future excluded items, management cannot accurately forecast many of these items for internal use and therefore cannot create a quantitative adjusted diluted earnings per share for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2024 to diluted earnings per share reconciliation without unreasonable efforts.

These non-GAAP disclosures have limitations as an analytical tool, should not be viewed as a substitute for operating earnings, Net earnings or net income determined in accordance with GAAP, and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of the Company's results as reported under GAAP, nor are they necessarily comparable to non-GAAP performance measures that may be presented by other companies. Management believes that this non-GAAP supplemental information will be helpful in understanding the Company's ongoing operating results. This supplemental presentation should not be construed as an inference that the Company's future results will be unaffected by similar adjustments to Net earnings determined in accordance with GAAP.

A reconciliation of non-GAAP net sales and growth rates in constant currency are set forth in the table below, providing a reconciliation of non-GAAP constant currency net sales to the Company’s reported net sales for its business segments.
