Highlights
- Delivered net sales of $315.8 million for the third quarter of 2024, reflecting a 3.6% increase from the third quarter of 2023, or 2.7% on an organic basis, driven primarily by strong pricing realization in all regions and volume growth in the Americas.
- Achieved Adjusted EBITDA of $47.9 million, an increase of $2.0 million, or 4.4%, primarily due to strong sales growth.
- Generated operating cash flow of $30.7 million, with over 100% conversion of net income to free cash flow.
- Announced a 5.4% increase in the Company's quarterly cash dividend to $0.295 per share, marking the 53rd consecutive year the Company has increased its annual cash dividend payout.
- Expanded the Company's portfolio of innovative products and solutions with the launch of the new T291 small walk-behind scrubber. Designed for use in both hard-to-reach spaces and open areas, the T291's versatility and compact size make it an excellent fit for mid-size retail, healthcare, and education environments.
"We are pleased to report Tennant's strong third quarter results, continuing the trend from the first half of 2024 of delivering growth in organic net sales and Adjusted EBITDA as we progress toward normalized backlog levels by the end of 2024," said Dave Huml, Tennant President and Chief Executive Officer. "This quarter benefited from strong pricing realization across all regions and represents the second consecutive quarter with strong order growth in each of our geographies. Given the robust reception to our recent product introductions and a solid pipeline of upcoming products, combined with expanded go-to-market strategies and a disciplined pricing approach, we are well positioned to achieve our 2024 guidance and execute our enterprise growth strategy effectively."
Net Sales | ||||||
Consolidated net sales for the third quarter of 2024 totaled $315.8 million, a 3.6% increase compared to consolidated net sales of $304.7 million in the third quarter of 2023. The components of the consolidated net sales change were as follows: | ||||||

2024 vs. 2023 | ||||||
Price | 1.8 | % | 3.1 | % | ||
Volume | 0.9 | % | (1.0 | )% | ||
Organic growth | 2.7 | % | 2.1 | % | ||

Foreign currency | (0.4 | )% | (0.2 | )% | ||
Total growth | 3.6 | % | 2.7 | % | ||
Organic Sales | |||||||||||||||||||||||
Organic sales, which exclude the effects of foreign currency and acquisitions, increased 2.7% compared to the prior year. This growth was driven by effective price realization across all geographies and volume growth in the Americas, although it was partially offset by volume declines in the EMEA and APAC regions. | |||||||||||||||||||||||

Organic net sales growth | 4.6 | % | (0.8 | )% | (4.3 | )% | 2.7 | % | 5.0 | % | (3.6 | )% | (6.2 | )% | 2.1 | % | |||||||
Americas: The 4.6% increase in the Americas, which includes all North America and Latin America, was driven primarily by both price realization and volume increases.
EMEA: The 0.8% decrease in EMEA, which includes Europe, the Middle East and Africa, was due to volume declines in both equipment and parts and consumables partly offset by price realization in all product categories. Equipment volumes were impacted by weaker-than-expected market conditions and a smaller contribution from backlog reduction in the current period.
APAC: The 4.3% decrease in APAC, which includes China, Australia, Japan and other Asian markets, was primarily due to volume declines in China and Australia, partially offset by price realization in Australia. China is experiencing market saturation, leading to decreased demand for our mid-tier products in the region. In Australia, we are observing signals of reduced demand as general cost conditions in the market remain elevated.
Operating Results
The gross profit margin of 42.4% declined 90 basis points compared to the third quarter of 2023. This decrease is attributed to inflationary pressure on materials and elevated freight costs. Additionally, unfavorable geographic and customer mix also contributed to the decline, but to a lesser extent. However, this was partially offset by price realization.
Selling and Administrative ("S&A") expense totaled $92.7 million in the third quarter of 2024, a $4.5 million increase compared to the third quarter of 2023. The current period included $3.3 million of ERP modernization costs and $0.7 million of transaction and integration costs associated with our acquisition of TCS EMEA GmbH ("TCS"), Tennant's long-standing distributor serving countries in Europe, Africa, and the Middle East. Excluding non-GAAP costs, Adjusted S&A as a percentage of net sales improved to 28.1% in the third quarter of 2024, compared to 28.9% in the third quarter of 2023.
Adjusted EBITDA was $47.9 million in the third quarter of 2024, compared to $45.9 million in the prior-year period. The improvement in Adjusted EBITDA was primarily due to both price and volume growth in net sales as well as our acquisition of TCS. Adjusted EBITDA margin for the second quarter of 2024 was 15.2%, up slightly compared to 15.1% in the prior-year period.
Net income was $20.8 million in the third quarter of 2024 compared to $22.9 million in the third quarter of 2023. The decrease was due to $2.5 million of ERP modernization costs and $0.7 million of transaction and integration costs associated with our acquisition of TCS. This was partly offset by lower interest expense, attributable to a decline in average debt balances. Adjusted net income was $26.6 million in the third quarter of 2024, an increase of $1.2 million compared to the third quarter of 2023. Strong operating performance, driven by pricing realization and volume increases, was partly offset by higher operating costs and income taxes.
Cash Flow, Liquidity and Capital Allocation
Tennant generated $30.7 million in cash flow from operations during the third quarter of 2024, a $23.7 million decrease compared to the prior-year period. The decrease was primarily driven by increases in working capital associated with the timing of sales during the quarter as well as investments in ERP modernization costs totaling $9.4 million.
Liquidity remained strong with a balance of $91.3 million in cash and cash equivalents as of the end of the third quarter. Additionally, the company had $439.3 million of unused borrowing capacity under its revolving credit facility. As previously announced, on August 7, 2024, the Company amended and restructured its existing credit agreement and increased its revolving credit facility limit to $650.0 million in order to optimize its debt structure and enhance its flexibility and capability for driving expansion.
The Company continues to strategically deploy cash flow to meet operational capital requirements and to return capital to shareholders in alignment with its capital allocation priorities. During the third quarter, the Company invested $4.3 million in capital expenditures and returned $13.3 million to shareholders through dividends and share repurchases. The Company remains diligent in managing its debt and maintaining a strong balance sheet. The Company's net leverage ratio was 0.56 times Adjusted EBITDA, which is below its targeted range of 1x to 2x Adjusted EBITDA.
