READING, Pa.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--EnerSys (NYSE: ENS), the global leader in stored energy solutions for industrial applications, announced today results for its fourth quarter and full year fiscal 2024, which ended on March 31, 2024.
Message from the CEO |
We delivered a strong finish to the fiscal year with our balanced business portfolio delivering solid results, highlighted by adjusted earnings per share at the high end of our guidance range. In the fourth quarter, net sales were down versus prior year, in line with our expectations, as positive momentum in the majority of our end markets continued to be muted by spending pauses in telecom and broadband. We generated gross margin improvement and adjusted operating earnings growth in our base business, which were bolstered by IRC 45X tax credits. In addition, we are realizing the benefits of our cost improvement actions in Energy Systems, and we are positioning the business to benefit from future growth opportunities. Our Motive Power revenue increased with higher demand offsetting some of the decline in our Energy Systems business. We continue to see increasing customer conversions as maintenance-free sales, including lithium solutions, reached a record 25% of Motive Power sales in the quarter. Data Center growth was a bright spot, up 10% sequentially, bringing data center revenue to 10% of total company revenue, up from 8% in prior year fourth quarter. In our Specialty business, performance was supported by productivity improvements in our Missouri factory. We continue to progress toward full commercialization of our Fast Charge and Storage (FC&S) solution and are on track for our first system installations in late summer 2024.
We are advancing on the development of our lithium-ion cell gigafactory. During the quarter, we selected Greenville, South Carolina, as the location and we secured state and local funding totaling $200 million. EnerSys has applied to the Department of Energy for additional funding with awards expected to be announced in August. We intend to use the IRC 45X tax credits to increase our investments in domestic manufacturing of energy dense batteries, as the law intended.
Subsequent to the end of the quarter, we were very pleased to announce our agreement to acquire Bren-Tronics, a leading U.S. manufacturer of portable power solutions, which will expand our presence in critical defense applications, broaden our product offerings, and strengthen our product development capabilities. The acquisition will be immediately accretive to our earnings upon closing, which is expected near the end of our fiscal first quarter.
Fiscal 2024 was a year of several achievements toward our long-term strategic goals, as we navigated through a challenging environment. We are confident that the foundation we put in place this year, coupled with the investments we have made in our transformation, will yield accelerating results in the coming years. Energy scarcity will continue to be a global concern as megatrends are driving rapid growth in demand for reliable power. As a critical supplier of energy systems and energy storage solutions, EnerSys is strategically positioned to capitalize on this growth. Looking to fiscal 2025 and beyond, we remain focused on achieving the long-term targets we set at our Investor Day and delivering long-term value to our stockholders.
David M. Shaffer, President and Chief Executive Officer, EnerSys

Net sales for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2024 were $910.7 million, a decrease of 8.0% from the prior year fourth quarter net sales of $989.9 million.

Fiscal Year 2024
Net sales for the twelve months of fiscal 2024 were $3,581.8 million, a decrease of 3.4% from the prior year twelve months net sales of $3,708.5 million. This decrease was due to a 7% decrease in organic volume, partially offset by a 4% increase in pricing.

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.
First Quarter and Full Year 2025 Outlook
Beginning with the first quarter of 2025, EnerSys is making changes to its quarterly guidance metrics. The Company will now provide guidance on net sales and adjusted diluted earnings per share on a quarterly and fiscal year basis. The Company believes this information will provide a clearer view of its anticipated financial performance.
In the first quarter of fiscal 2025, EnerSys expects:
- Net sales in the range of $860M to $900M
- Adjusted diluted earnings per share in the range of $1.93 to $2.03*
For the full year fiscal 2025, EnerSys expects:
- Net sales in the range of $3,675M to $3,825M
- Adjusted diluted earnings per share in the range of $8.55 to $8.95*
- Capital expenditures in the range of $100M to $120M
"We remain optimistic about the trajectory of our business and are on track to achieve the aggregate fiscal year 2027 targets we set at our Investor Day in June 2023. 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. In the first quarter, we expect seasonally lower volume in Motive Power and continued telecom and broadband spending pauses in Energy Systems. We expect to see some cost improvements and benefits from operational efficiencies flowing through to our bottom line. For fiscal year 2025, we expect volume growth driven by maintenance-free products in Motive Power, an increase in transportation aftermarket sales, and our first revenues from Fast Charge and Storage, with only moderate recovery in telecom and broadband markets to begin to occur towards the end of the fiscal year. The need for intelligent energy storage and management systems will only increase as the demand for electricity is significantly outpacing the capacity of the global grid infrastructure. EnerSys is well-positioned to capitalize on market opportunities as we deliver innovative products that are strategically aligned with these secular trends," said Andrea Funk, EnerSys Chief Financial Officer.
*Inclusive of 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.

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", "EBITDA", "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 first quarter of fiscal 2025 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 first quarter of fiscal 2025 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 first quarter of fiscal 2025 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.
