"Garrett had an excellent start to the year with revenue growth that significantly outpaced the global light vehicle industry, driven by new product launches and program ramp-ups. This growth, together with Garrett's strong operational execution, allowed us to achieve another quarter of outstanding financial results and cash flow generation,” said Garrett President and CEO, Olivier Rabiller.

"We also recently announced the simplification of Garrett's capital structure, which will eliminate the Series A Preferred Stock dividend and result in over $100 million of incremental annual net cash flow to the business. This increase in annual cash flow will enhance our ability to invest in the future of both our core turbo business and differentiated technologies for zero emission mobility. I am excited about the long-term prospects of our business."

Results of Operations

Net sales for the first quarter of 2023 were $970 million, representing an increase of 8% (including an unfavorable impact of $47 million or 5% due to foreign currency translation) compared with $901 million in the first quarter of 2022. This increase was driven by higher volumes as the industry recovers and the semiconductor shortages experienced in the prior year abate, as well as share of demand gains from new product ramp-ups and launches, and inflation recoveries net of pricing across all product lines.

Cost of goods sold for the first quarter of 2023 was $781 million compared with $726 million in the first quarter of 2022, primarily driven by our higher sales volumes and product mix which contributed to increases of $41 million and $34 million, respectively. Cost of goods sold further increased due to $26 million of inflation on commodities, energy and transportation, as well as a $3 million increase in Research and development ("R&D") costs which reflects our shift in investment in new technologies and headcount increase year-over-year. Our continued focus on productivity, net of labor inflation, contributed to a decrease in cost of goods sold of $13 million. Foreign currency impacts from transactional, translational and hedging effects also contributed to decreases of $36 million.

Gross profit totaled $189 million for the first quarter of 2023 as compared to $175 million in the first quarter of 2022, with a gross profit percentage for the first quarter of 2023 of 19.5% as compared to 19.4% in the first quarter of 2022. The increase in gross profit was primarily driven by the higher sales volumes and inflation recoveries from customer pass-through agreements net of pricing reductions. Furthermore, gross profit increased $8 million from higher productivity net of labor inflation and $4 million of favorable product mix. These increases were partially offset by $26 million inflation on commodities, energy and transportation, as discussed above, and $3 million of higher R&D costs.

Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses for the first quarter of 2023 increased to $56 million from $53 million in the first quarter of 2022. The $3 million increase compared with the prior year was mainly driven by $3 million of lower incentive compensation expense in 2022 and $2 million of consultant fees related to our capital structure transformation, partially offset by $2 million of favorable impacts from foreign exchange rates.

Interest expense in the first quarter of 2023 was $28 million as compared to $23 million in the first quarter of 2022. The increase was primarily due to interest expense recorded from unrealized marked-to-market losses on our interest rate swaps.

Non-operating income decreased to $4 million in the first quarter of 2023 from $28 million in the first quarter of 2022. The decrease in income was primarily related to $27 million of interest income recorded in 2022 from unrealized marked-to-market gains on our interest rate swaps.

Net income for the first quarter of 2023 was $81 million as compared to $88 million in the first quarter of 2022. The decrease of $7 million was primarily due to higher non-operating income in the prior year from the unrealized marked-to market gains on our interest rate swaps as discussed above, partially offset by $14 million of higher gross profit and $10 million of lower tax expenses. The net income margin decreased to 8.4% in the first quarter of 2023 as compared to 9.8% in the first quarter of 2022.

Net cash provided by operating activities totaled $92 million in the first quarter of 2023 as compared to $73 million in the first quarter of 2022, primarily due to an increase of $31 million in net income excluding non-cash charges and favorable impacts from other assets and liabilities of $26 million, partially offset by unfavorable impacts from changes in working capital of $38 million.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Adjusted EBITDA increased to $168 million in the first quarter of 2023 as compared to $146 million in the first quarter of 2022. The increase was mainly due to higher volume, favorable product mix, improved productivity and inflation pass-through net of pricing, partially offset by inflation on commodities, energy and transportation, as well as unfavorable foreign exchange impacts. The Adjusted EBITDA margin increased to 17.3% in the first quarter of 2023 as compared to 16.2% in the first quarter of 2022.

Adjusted free cash flow, which excludes capital structure transformation costs, cash paid for repositioning and factoring costs, was $88 million in the first quarter of 2023 as compared to $38 million in the first quarter of 2022. The increase in adjusted free cash flow was primarily due to lower cash paid on interest, mainly from $11 million of partial early redemption in the first quarter of 2022 on the Series B Preferred Stock attributable to interest, other assets and liabilities, and lower spend in capital expenditures, partially offset by higher usage from working capital.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of March 31, 2023, Garrett had $766 million in available liquidity, including $291 million in cash and cash equivalents and $475 million of undrawn commitments under its revolving credit facility. As of December 31, 2022, Garrett had $721 million in available liquidity, including $246 million in cash and cash equivalents and $475 million undrawn commitments under its revolving credit facility.

As of March 31, 2023, total principal amount of debt outstanding totaled $1,193 million, up from $1,186 million as of December 31, 2022, due to the foreign exchange rate impact on the EUR 450 million tranche.

Full Year 2023 Outlook

Garrett reaffirms the following outlook for the full year 2023 for certain GAAP and Non-GAAP financial measures.

 Full Year 2023 Outlook
Net sales (GAAP)$3.79 billion to $3.98 billion
Net sales growth at constant currency (Non-GAAP)*+5% to +10%
Net income (GAAP)$231 million to $268 million
Adjusted EBITDA (Non-GAAP)*$585 million to $635 million
Net cash provided by operating activities (GAAP)$392 million to $492 million
Adjusted free cash flow (Non-GAAP)*$315 million to $415 million

* See reconciliations to the nearest GAAP measure in pages 5-12.

Garrett’s full year 2023 outlook, as of April 17, 2023, reflects the following expectations:

  • 2023 light vehicle industry production at ~83Mu, 1% increase vs. 2022;
  • 2023 Euro/dollar assumption of 1.07 EUR to 1.00 USD;

Net income margin  8.4%  9.8%
Adjusted EBITDA margin (Non-GAAP) (7)  17.3%  16.2%

(1) We evaluate performance on the basis of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA. We define “EBITDA” as our net income calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP, plus the sum of net interest expense, tax expense and depreciation. We define “Adjusted EBITDA” as EBITDA, plus the sum of net reorganization items, stock compensation expense, repositioning costs, discounting costs on factoring, other non-operating income and capital structure transformation costs. We believe that EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are important indicators of operating performance and provide useful information for investors because:

  • EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA exclude the effects of income taxes, as well as the effects of financing and investing activities by eliminating the effects of interest and depreciation expenses and therefore more closely measure our operational performance; and
  • certain adjustment items, while periodically affecting our results, may vary significantly from period to period and have disproportionate effect in a given period, which affects the comparability of our results.

In addition, our management may use Adjusted EBITDA in setting performance incentive targets to align performance measurement with operational performance.

(2) The Company applied ASC 852 for periods subsequent to September 20, 2020, the date the Company and certain of its subsidiaries each filed a voluntary petition for relief under Chapter 11 of title 11 of the United States Code, to distinguish transactions and events that were directly associated with the Company’s reorganization from the ongoing operations of the business. Accordingly, certain expenses and gains incurred related to these transactions and events were recorded within Reorganization items, net in the Consolidated Interim Statements of Operations.

(3) Stock compensation expense includes only non-cash expenses.

(4) Repositioning costs includes severance costs related to restructuring projects to improve future productivity.

(5) Reflects the non-service component of net periodic pension costs and other income that are non-recurring or not considered directly related to the Company's operations.

(6) Reflects the third-party incremental costs that are directly attributable to the transformation of the Company's capital structure through the partial redemption and subsequent conversion of remaining outstanding Series A Preferred Stock into a single class of common stock.

(7) Adjusted EBITDA margin represents Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of net sales.

(1) We define constant currency sales growth as the year-over-year change in reported sales relative to the comparable period, excluding the impact on sales from foreign currency translation. We believe this measure is useful to investors and management in understanding our ongoing operations and in analysis of ongoing operating trends.

(1) Adjusted free cash flow reflects an additional way of viewing liquidity that management believes is useful to investors in analyzing the Company’s ability to service and repay its debt. The Company defines adjusted free cash flow as cash flow provided from operating activities less capital expenditures and additionally adjusted for other discretionary items including capital structure transformation costs and cash flow impacts for factoring and guaranteed bank notes activity.
