Unique Fabricating, Inc. Reports Third Quarter 2022 Financial Results

AUBURN HILLS, MI / ACCESSWIRE / November 8, 2022 / Unique Fabricating, Inc. (NYSE American:UFAB), a leader in engineering and manufacturing multi-material foam, rubber, and plastic components utilized in noise, vibration, and harshness management and air/water sealing applications for the transportation, appliance, medical, and consumer/off-road markets, today announced its financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2022.

Third Quarter 2022 Financial Results

  • Net sales of $34.5 million, up 15.4% compared to $29.9 million in the third quarter of 2021.
  • Total debt decreased $0.7 million to $47.7 million as of September 30, 2022, from $48.4 million as of December 31, 2021.

"We continue to make progress on our comprehensive refinancing initiative. The financing completed in early October combined with yesterday's execution of the amendment to our credit agreement ending the forbearance condition are important steps toward that goal. In addition, we believe this will support our new customer order intake activities," commented Doug Cain, Unique Fabricating's Chief Executive Officer. "Operationally, our team continues to adapt and to adjust to various challenges, delivering for our customers and maintaining cost-discipline. Volumes remained challenged in the third quarter and into the fourth quarter while inconsistent customer production schedules persisted. At this time, our supply chain availability has improved in most areas and the cost curve appears to have flattened. With improvements already made and more in process, we believe that we can continue to navigate these challenges, and that we will emerge as one of the stronger suppliers as the industry normalizes."

Third Quarter 2022 Financial Summary

Net sales for the quarter increased $4.6 million, or 15.4%, to $34.5 million when compared to the third quarter of 2021. This increase was primarily driven by higher light vehicle production in North America in the third quarter of 2022 as compared to the same period in 2021. Gross profit for the third quarter of 2022 was $3.0 million, or 8.8% of net sales, compared to $3.3 million, or 11.0% of net sales, for the same period last year.

Selling, general and administrative expenses were $4.4 million, or 12.8% of net sales, compared to $5.7 million, or 19.2% of net sales for the same period last year. The Company also recognized a non-cash goodwill impairment charge of $4.8 million, during the third quarter of 2022.

Net loss was $10.6 million or $0.90 per basic and diluted share in the third quarter of 2022, compared to net loss of $1.9 million or $0.19 per basic and diluted share in the third quarter of 2021. The increase in net loss as compared to the same period last year is the result of $4.2 million higher income tax expense in the third quarter of 2022 related to establishing valuation allowances for deferred tax assets in Mexico and Canada and the one-time $6.1 million gain recognized in the third quarter of 2021 from the forgiveness of the Company's PPP Loan.

Balance Sheet Summary

As of September 30, 2022, the Company had approximately $0.5 million in cash and cash equivalents, compared to $0.7 million in cash and cash equivalents at December 31, 2021. Total debt outstanding as of September 30, 2022 was $47.7 million compared to $48.4 million as of December 31, 2021.

About Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The Third Amendment to Forbearance Agreement suspended the Minimum Consolidated EBITDA Covenant for the remainder of the forbearance period. To keep the reader informed on how our performance measures against potential future financial covenants, we are disclosing the reconciliation of net income (loss), as reported, to Operating EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure which is similar to financial measurements used in the past to measure the Company's performance against previously required financial covenants. There can be no assurance as to the requirements or form of future financial covenants, including that the example we are providing will be incorporated into any covenant or measure of our performance in the future or as to the use or calculation of Operating EBITDA or any other non-GAAP financial measure. Operating EBITDA, as determined and measured by Unique Fabricating, is defined as net income (loss) before interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, and before certain items, as applicable, such as non-cash stock compensation, severance, restructuring, impairment of goodwill and other intangibles, acquisition and integration costs, gains (losses) on the sale or exchange of assets other than in the ordinary course of business, gains (losses) on extinguishment of debt, and certain expenses related to our Forbearance Agreement including financial advisor fees, legal expenses, amendment fees, and risk advisory and mitigation costs. Operating EBITDA as presented, should not be considered a substitute for results prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP and should not be considered an alternative to net income (loss), which is the most directly comparable financial measure to Operating EBITDA that is prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Operating EBITDA, as determined and measured by Unique Fabricating, should also not be compared to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. Certain of the adjustments and add backs to Operating EBITDA are recurring in nature and are cash expenses, which we believe limits the usefulness of Operating EBITDA as a measurement of the Company's performance.

Customer Order Intake ("COI") reflects anticipated future sales from formally awarded programs and is based on expected production volumes for the life of the program. The calculation of Customer Order Intake does not reflect the impact of lost business and discontinued programs and may be impacted by various assumptions embedded in the respective calculation, including, among other things, actual production levels on new programs and the timing of program launches.

Non-GAAP financial measures may have limitations as analytical tools, and should not be considered in isolation as a substitute for analysis of Unique Fabricating's results as reported under U.S. GAAP.
