Finanznachrichten News

MALVERN, Pa., Aug. 06, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Vishay Precision Group, Inc. (NYSE: VPG), a leader in precision measurement and sensing technologies, today announced its results for its fiscal 2024 second quarter ended June 29, 2024.

Ziv Shoshani, Chief Executive Officer of VPG, commented, "Sales in the second quarter were 4.2% lower sequentially reflecting continued mixed trends across our markets. Our book-to-bill in the second quarter improved slightly to 0.95, reflecting orders of $73.5 million which declined slightly sequentially. Demand improved in some cyclical markets such as Steel and consumer, while orders were lower in portions of our Test & Measurement market, as well as in Avionics, Military & Space and our industrial markets, primarily due to project timing and continued cautious ordering by our distributor customers."

Mr. Shoshani said: "Given our strong balance sheet and solid cash flow, we are continuing to focus on cost-reduction initiatives while maintaining our ongoing strategic business development aimed at accelerating our long-term growth."

Second Fiscal Quarter and Six Month Financial Trends:

The Company's second fiscal quarter 2024 net earnings attributable to VPG stockholders were $4.6 million, or $0.34 per diluted share, compared to $8.2 million, or $0.60 per diluted share, in the second fiscal quarter of 2023.

In the six fiscal months ended June 29, 2024, net earnings attributable to VPG stockholders were $10.5 million, or $0.78 per diluted share, compared to $15.2 million, or $1.11 per diluted share, in the six fiscal months ended July 1, 2023.

The second fiscal quarter 2024 adjusted net earnings* were $4.2 million, or $0.31 per adjusted diluted net earnings per share*, compared to $8.0 million, or $0.58 per adjusted diluted net earnings per share* in the second fiscal quarter of 2023.

In the six fiscal months ended June 29, 2024, adjusted net earnings* were $9.8 million, or $0.73 per adjusted diluted net earnings per share*, compared to $15.0 million, or $1.10 per adjusted diluted net earnings per share* in the six fiscal months ended July 1, 2023.

Segment Performance:

The Sensors segment revenue of $28.9 million in the second fiscal quarter of 2024 decreased 20.4% from $36.3 million in the second fiscal quarter of 2023. Sequentially, revenue decreased 1.9% compared to $29.4 million in the first fiscal quarter of 2024. The year-over-year decrease in revenues was primarily attributable to lower sales of precision resistors in the Test and Measurement and Avionics, Military and Space (AMS) markets, partially offset by increases in advanced sensors sales in the Other markets, mainly for consumer applications. Sequentially, the decrease primarily reflected lower sales of precision resistors in the Test and Measurement market, partially offset by increases in advanced sensors sales in the Other markets, mainly for consumer applications.

Gross profit margin for the Sensors segment was 38.3% for the second fiscal quarter of 2024. Gross profit margin decreased compared to 40.1% in the second fiscal quarter of 2023, and increased compared to 36.5% in the first fiscal quarter of 2024. The year-over-year decrease in gross profit margin was primarily due to lower volume, partially offset by improved efficiencies and cost reduction programs. Sequentially, the higher gross profit margin was primarily due to improved efficiencies.

The Weighing Solutions segment revenue of $27.4 million in the second fiscal quarter of 2024 decreased 12.2% compared to $31.3 million in the second fiscal quarter of 2023 and was 4.8% lower than $28.8 million in the first fiscal quarter of 2024. The year-over-year decline in revenues was mainly attributable to lower sales of load cells in our Other markets, primarily for precision agriculture and medical applications, and in our Industrial Weighing market. Sequentially, the decreases in revenues was primarily attributable to lower sales in the Transportation market.

Gross profit margin for the Weighing Solutions segment was 37.6% for the second fiscal quarter of 2024, which decreased compared to 38.7% in the second fiscal quarter of 2023, and decreased compared to 39.1% in the first fiscal quarter of 2024. The year-over-year and sequential decrease in gross profit margin were primarily due to lower volume.

The Measurement Systems segment revenue of $21.0 million in the second fiscal quarter of 2024 decreased 9.6% year-over-year from $23.3 million in the second fiscal quarter of 2023 and was 6.6% lower than $22.5 million in the first fiscal quarter of 2024. The year-over-year decrease was primarily attributable to decreased revenue in the Steel and the Transportation markets. Sequentially, the decrease in revenue was primarily due to lower sales of Diversified Technical Systems Inc. ("DTS") products in the AMS and Transportation markets.

Gross profit margin for the Measurement Systems segment was 52.4%, compared to 51.8% (or 52.0% reflecting an adjustment to exclude $41 thousand of purchase accounting adjustment related to the DTS acquisition), in the second fiscal quarter of 2023, and 58.1% in the first fiscal quarter of 2024. The year-over-year adjusted gross profit margin* was slightly higher due to favorable product mix. The sequentially lower adjusted gross profit margin* reflected lower volume with an unfavorable product mix.

Near-Term Outlook

"Given our backlog and the current market conditions, we expect net revenues to be in the range of $70 million to $78 million for the third fiscal quarter of 2024, at constant second fiscal quarter 2024 foreign currency exchange rates," concluded Mr. Shoshani.

*Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information:

We define "adjusted gross profit margin" as gross profit margin before purchase accounting adjustments related to the DTS acquisition. We define "adjusted operating margin" as operating margin before purchase accounting adjustment related to the DTS acquisition, and restructuring and severance costs. We define "adjusted net earnings" and "adjusted diluted net earnings per share" as net earnings attributable to VPG stockholders before purchase accounting adjustment related to the DTS acquisition, restructuring and severance costs, foreign currency exchange gains and losses, and associated tax effects. We define "EBITDA" as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization. We define "Adjusted EBITDA" as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization before purchase accounting adjustment related to the DTS acquisition, restructuring and severance costs, and foreign currency exchange gains and losses. "Adjusted free cash flow" for the second fiscal quarter of 2024 is defined as the amount of cash generated from operating activities ($7.5 million), in excess of our capital expenditures ($2.6 million), net of proceeds, if any, from the sale of assets.

Management believes that these non-GAAP measures are useful to investors because each presents what management views as our core operating results for the relevant period. The adjustments to the applicable GAAP measures relate to occurrences or events that are outside of our core operations, and management believes that the use of these non-GAAP measures provides a consistent basis to evaluate our operating profitability and performance trends across comparable periods. These reconciling items are indicated on the accompanying reconciliation schedules and are more fully described in VPG's financial statements presented in our Annual Report on Form 10-K and its Quarterly Reports on Forms 10-Q.
