JBT Corporation (NYSE: JBT), a leading global technology solutions provider to high-value segments of the food & beverage industry, today reported results for the second quarter of 2023. The Company also announced that it completed the sale of AeroTech to Oshkosh Corporation.

"JBT continued to capture the benefit of its product and end market diversification during the second quarter with a solid contribution from recurring revenue and healthy order demand from several end markets," said Brian Deck, President and Chief Executive Officer.

"Additionally, we are excited to announce that we completed the sale of AeroTech to Oshkosh Corporation," added Deck. "Closing the AeroTech transaction is a significant milestone, transforming JBT into a pure-play food and beverage solutions provider and positioning us for growth and margin enhancement in resilient markets."

Comparisons in this news release are to the comparable period of the prior year, unless otherwise noted. An earnings presentation with supplemental information is also available on the Company's Investor Relations website at https://ir.jbtc.com/events-and-presentations/.

Second Quarter 2023 Results from Continuing Operations

"During the second quarter, we delivered meaningful year-over-year margin improvement driven by better price-cost realization, a higher mix of recurring revenue, lower discretionary costs, and benefits from our restructuring program," said Matt Meister, Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer.

AeroTech's financial results were transitioned to discontinued operations in the second quarter 2023, and prior period financial results have been recast accordingly. The below paragraphs reflect JBT's results from continuing operations.

Second quarter 2023 revenue from continuing operations of $428 million increased 9 percent year over year driven by 2 percent organic growth and 8 percent from acquisitions; this was partially offset by a negative 1 percent foreign exchange impact. Income from continuing operations of $28 million increased 8 percent. Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations of $71 million increased 34 percent, and adjusted EBITDA margin of 16.7 percent increased 320 basis points. Included in adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations was approximately $13 million in corporate related costs. Excluding corporate related costs, the adjusted EBITDA margin for JBT's FoodTech operations was 19.7 percent, which exceeded the previously provided guidance range of 18.0 - 18.75 percent.

During the second quarter, JBT incurred $3 million of expense and realized approximately $2 million in savings related to its ongoing restructuring program. Diluted earnings per share (EPS) from continuing operations of $0.87 increased 9 percent. Adjusted EPS from continuing operations of $0.97 increased 11 percent and exceeded the previously provided implied guidance range of $0.70 - $0.85. Orders from continuing operations were $445 million, an increase of 13 percent. Backlog from continuing operations of $697 million increased 4 percent.

JBT generated year to date operating cash flow from continuing operations of $63 million. Year to date free cash flow from continuing operations was $29 million. Prior to the effect of the AeroTech sale, liquidity at quarter end was approximately $600 million, and the Company's leverage ratio was 2.8x net debt to trailing twelve months pro forma adjusted EBITDA. Considering the impact from the sale of AeroTech, the second quarter leverage ratio from continuing operations would have been below 1.0x.

AeroTech Sale Completion

JBT completed the sale of its AeroTech business to Oshkosh Corporation (NYSE: OSK) in an all-cash transaction valued at $800 million, subject to customary closing items. JBT expects net proceeds after taxes and transaction costs to be approximately $650 million. The Company expects to use the net proceeds consistent with its stated capital allocation priorities, which includes paying down variable rate debt and redeploying capital to strategic acquisitions.

Profitability Measure

During the second quarter 2023, JBT formalized its most notable profitability measure as adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations. Management believes that adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations, which is EBITDA excluding items that are not reflective of ongoing operations, is useful as a performance indicator. The Company also believes that adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations is useful to investors as a measure of the Company’s operational performance and a way to evaluate and compare operating performance against peers in the Company's industry. Management believes that adjusted EBITDA margin from continuing operations is useful for the same reason as adjusted EBITDA.

2023 Outlook

The table below provides a bridge from the previous JBT full year 2023 guidance provided on April 25, 2023, to the implied continuing operations guidance, which removes the previous AeroTech guidance. It does not include any other impacts from the sale of AeroTech, including any go forward stranded costs, allocated interest expense, or transaction related expenses.

JBT is pursuing additional restructuring actions during 2023 to further optimize its global cost structure. The Company now expects to incur approximately $11 - $13 million in restructuring expense for the full year 2023, bringing the total cost of the restructuring program, which was initiated in the second half of 2022, to $16 - $18 million. These restructuring actions are estimated to generate annualized run-rate savings of $18 - $20 million by mid-2024.

Included in the third quarter 2023 adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations is approximately $16 million in corporate related costs. Interest expense for the third quarter 2023 is estimated to be approximately $2 million, which includes the benefits from the net proceeds of the AeroTech sale. Additionally, JBT expects to incur approximately $7 - $8 million in restructuring expense, $1 million in LIFO expense, and $1 - $2 million in M&A related costs. The tax rate is estimated to be 22 - 23 percent.

Included in the full year 2023 adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations is approximately $57 - $60 million in corporate related costs. Interest expense for the full year 2023 is estimated to be approximately $14 million, which includes the benefits from the net proceeds of the AeroTech sale. Additionally, JBT expects to incur approximately $11 - $13 million in restructuring expense, $4 million in LIFO expense, and $7 million in M&A related costs. The tax rate is estimated to be 22 - 23 percent.

We use these measures internally to make operating decisions and for the planning and forecasting of future periods, and therefore provide this information to investors because we believe it allows more meaningful period-to-period comparisons of our ongoing operating results, without the fluctuations in the amount of certain costs that do not reflect our underlying operating results.

The above table reports EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, which are non-GAAP financial measures. Given the Company’s focus on growth through acquisitions, management believes EBITDA facilitates an evaluation of business performance while excluding the impact of amortization due to the step up in value of intangible assets, and the depreciation of fixed assets. We use Adjusted EBITDA internally to make operating decisions and believe that adjusted EBITDA is useful to investors as a measure of the Company’s operational performance and a way to evaluate and compare operating performance against peers in the Company's industry.

The above table reports free cash flow, which is a non-GAAP financial measure. We use free cash flow internally as a key indicator of our liquidity and ability to service debt, invest in business combinations, and return money to shareholders and believe this information is useful to investors because it provides an understanding of the cash available to fund these initiatives. For free cash flow purposes, we consider contributions to pension plans to be more comparable to payment of debt, and therefore exclude these contributions from the calculation of free cash flow.

(1) Restructuring related costs is estimated to be approximately $7 - $8 million and $11 - $13 million for the third quarter and full year 2023, respectively. The mid-point amount has been divided by our estimate of 32.1 million total shares and dilutive securities to derive earnings per share.

 

 

 

(2) M&A related costs are estimated to be $1.5 million and $7 million for the third quarter and full year 2023, respectively. The mid-point has been divided by our estimate of 32.1 million total shares and dilutive securities to derive earnings per share.

 

 

 

(3) LIFO expense is estimated to be approximately $1 million and $4 million for the third quarter 2023 and full year 2023, respectively. The mid-point amount has been divided by our estimate of 32.1 million total shares and dilutive securities to derive earnings per share.

 

 

 

(4) Impact on tax provision was calculated using the Company's effective tax rate of approximately 22-23%.
