Mirion Technologies, Inc. (“Mirion,” "we" or the "company") (NYSE: MIR), a global provider of radiation detection, measurement, analysis and monitoring solutions to the medical, nuclear, defense, and research end markets, today announced results for the fourth quarter and fiscal year ended December 31, 2022.

Mirion reported full year order growth for 2022 of approximately 8% compared to 2021. Backlog was $737.4 million as of December 31, 2022, reflecting 10% year-over-year growth, supported by strong engagement with the company’s diverse portfolio of solutions and supportive trends across its end markets. Order growth and backlog exclude the impact of the Hanhikivi project termination in the second quarter of 2022.

“2022 was a dynamic year for Mirion, as we completed our first full year as a public company. Our teams responded well to the myriad of challenges faced throughout the year and we delivered a strong finish to 2022,” stated Thomas Logan, Mirion’s Chief Executive Officer. “Overall, I am very pleased with our fourth quarter results, which were highlighted by substantial revenue growth across both our reporting segments. The Medical business delivered solid top-line growth in all three e and meaningful margin expansion compared to the same period last year. Industrial took a noticeable step forward as well, supported by improved operating conditions and strong execution by our team. We exited 2022 with good momentum and the business is poised to deliver a strong 2023.”

“I am incredibly proud of the growth that Mirion delivered in the fourth quarter. End market demand remains quite healthy and the team has built a strong backlog position to support future growth,” added Larry Kingsley, Chairman of Mirion’s Board of Directors. “I believe that Mirion is well-positioned going into 2023 and beyond, supported by the company’s strategic market position and diverse portfolio of essential products and services.”

The Company recorded goodwill impairment charges of $87.3 million in its Medical segment and $69.3 million in its Industrial segment as a result of its required annual impairment test. The impairment charges represented approximately 10% of the company’s total goodwill balance as of December 31, 2022.

2023 Outlook

“Today, we are providing initial financial guidance for 2023. We are expecting to build off the momentum we established coming out of the fourth quarter,” continued Mr. Logan. “We are anticipating solid top-line growth in 2023, supported by healthy end markets and our robust backlog position. We have taken a thoughtful approach to setting our guidance and believe we have the right strategy in place to execute on our expectations.”

Mirion has issued the following guidance for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2023:

• Reported revenue growth of 6% to 9%, organic growth of 4% to 7%
• Adjusted EBITDA of $172 million - $182 million
• Adjusted EPS of $0.28 - $0.34
• Adjusted free cash flow of $50 million - $70 million

Organic revenue growth is expected at 4% to 7%. Inorganic revenue growth is expected to be approximately 1.5% including benefits from the SIS acquisition, offset by the Biodex physical rehab divestiture, expected to close during the first quarter. Foreign exchange rates are expected to result in a positive 0.5% impact to revenue growth. The guidance for organic revenue growth excludes the impact of foreign exchange rates as well as mergers, acquisitions and divestitures. Other modeling and guidance assumptions include the following:

• Euro to U.S. Dollar foreign exchange conversion rate of 1.07
• Depreciation of approximately $30 million
• Net interest expense of approximately $68 million (approximately $64 million of cash interest)
• Capital expenditures of approximately $40 million
• Effective tax rate of between 25% and 27%
• Approximately 181 million shares of Class A common stock outstanding (excludes 8.0 million shares of Class B common stock, 27.2 million warrants, 18.8 million founder shares, subject to vesting, 1.7 million restricted stock units, 0.4 million performance stock units and a further 23.6 million shares reserved for future equity awards (subject to annual automatic increases)), all as of December 31, 2022

The company’s guidance contains forward-looking statements and actual results may differ materially as a result of known and unknown uncertainties and risks, including those set forth below under the heading “Forward-Looking Statements.” In addition, forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures are presented on a non-GAAP basis without reconciliations of such forward-looking non-GAAP measures due to the inherent difficulty in projecting and quantifying the various adjusting items necessary for such reconciliations, such as stock-based compensation expense, amortization and depreciation expense and purchase accounting adjustments, that have not yet occurred, are out of Mirion’s control, or cannot be reasonably predicted. Accordingly, reconciliations of our guidance for adjusted revenue, organic adjusted revenue adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EPS and adjusted free cash flow are not available without unreasonable effort.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information

We believe that the presentation of non-GAAP financial information provides important supplemental information to management and investors regarding financial and business trends relating to our financial condition, and results of operations. For further information regarding these non-GAAP measures, including the reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures, please refer to the financial tables below, as well as the “Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” section of this press release.

Basis of Presentation

As a result of the business combination (the "Business Combination") with GS Acquisition Holdings Corp II ("GSAH"), the company’s financial statement presentation distinguishes Mirion Technologies (TopCo), Ltd (“Mirion TopCo”) as the “Predecessor” until the closing date of the Business Combination, October 20, 2021 (the “Closing Date”). Mirion, which includes the combination of Mirion TopCo and GSAH subsequent to the Business Combination, is the “Successor” for periods starting from the Closing Date. As a result of the application of the acquisition method of accounting in the Successor period, the financial statements for the Successor period are presented on a full step-up basis as a result of the Business Combination, and are therefore not comparable to the financial statements of the Predecessor period that are not presented on the same full step-up basis due to the Business Combination. Mirion adopted a calendar year fiscal year in connection with the closing of the Business Combination.

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In addition to our results determined in accordance with GAAP, we believe the following non-GAAP measures are useful in evaluating our operating performance. We use the following non-GAAP financial information to evaluate our ongoing operations and for internal planning and forecasting purposes. We believe that non-GAAP financial information, when taken collectively, may be helpful to investors because it provides consistency and comparability with past financial performance. However, non-GAAP financial information is presented for supplemental informational purposes only, has limitations as an analytical tool, and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for financial information presented in accordance with GAAP. Other companies, including companies in our industry, may calculate similarly titled non-GAAP measures differently or may use other measures to evaluate their performance, all of which could reduce the usefulness of our non-GAAP financial measures as tools for comparison.

Investors are encouraged to review the related GAAP financial measures and the reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures and not rely on any single financial measure to evaluate our business.

Adjusted Revenues is defined as GAAP revenues adjusted to remove the impact of purchase accounting on the recognition of deferred revenue.

Organic Adjusted Revenues is defined as Adjusted Revenues excluding the impact of foreign exchange rates as well as mergers and acquisitions in the period.

Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income before interest expense, income tax expense, depreciation and amortization adjusted to remove the impact of foreign currency gains and losses, amortization of acquired intangible assets, the impact of purchase accounting on the recognition of deferred revenue, changes in the fair value of warrants, certain non-operating expenses (impairment related to a business held for sale and an equity investment, incremental one-time costs related to the Business Combination, incremental one-time costs associated with becoming a public company, mergers and acquisition expenses, restructuring costs, costs to achieve information technology system integration and efficiency, and costs to achieve integration and operational synergies), stock-based compensation expense, debt extinguishment, goodwill impairment, and income tax impacts of these adjustments.

Adjusted Net Income is defined as GAAP net income adjusted for foreign currency gains and losses, amortization of acquired intangible assets, the impact of purchase accounting on the recognition of deferred revenue, changes in the fair value of warrants and certain non-operating expenses also excluded from Adjusted EBITDA, stock-based compensation expense, debt extinguishment, goodwill impairment, and income tax impacts of these adjustments.

Adjusted EPS is defined as adjusted net income divided by weighted average common shares outstanding — basic and diluted.

Adjusted Free Cash Flow is defined as free cash flow adjusted to include the impact of cash used to fund non-operating expenses. We believe that the inclusion of supplementary adjustments to free cash flow applied in presenting adjusted free cash flow is appropriate to provide additional information to investors about our cash flows that management utilizes on an ongoing basis to assess our ability to generate cash for use in acquisitions and other investing and financing activities.

Free Cash Flow is defined as U.S. GAAP net cash provided by operating activities adjusted to include the impact of purchases of property, plant, and equipment and purchases of badges.

Operating Metrics

Order Growth is defined as the amount of revenue earned in a given period and estimated to be earned in future periods from contracts entered into in a given period as compared with such amount for a prior period. Order growth was calculated excluding the impact of the Hanhikivi project termination in the second quarter of 2022. Foreign exchange rates are based on the applicable rates as reported for the time period.
