RACINE, Wis., May 28, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Modine Manufacturing Company (NYSE: MOD), a diversified global leader in thermal management technology and solutions, today reported financial results for the quarter and fiscal year ended March 31, 2020.

- Loss per share of $0.13 and adjusted earnings per share of $0.24

- Operating income of $37.9 million and adjusted operating income of $97.3 million
- Loss per share of $0.04 and adjusted earnings per share of $1.05
- Successfully completed the separation of the Automotive business, creating a stand-alone business segment to facilitate the exit strategy
Liquidity Update and Risk Mitigation Initiatives
In response to the significant reduction in customer demand resulting from the COVID-19 crisis, the Company has taken the following actions to further reduce operating expenses, conserve cash and maximize liquidity:
- Reduced employee and executive salaries by 10 to 20 percent
- Reduced board of directors annual cash compensation by 20 percent
- Implemented a combination of furloughs and shortened work weeks for salaried employees
- Reduced production schedules to align manufacturing operations with customer demand, resulting in the temporary layoff of manufacturing employees
- Reduced planned fiscal 2021 capital expenditures by 25 percent
- Amended credit agreement to provide liquidity through covenant flexibility for next two fiscal years
"We finished a challenging year on a strong note despite the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our manufacturing operations in March," said Modine President and Chief Executive Officer, Thomas A. Burke. "Modine faced unprecedented conditions in many of our end markets this year, but rose to the challenge by quickly implementing cost saving measures in response to lower end-market demand. In addition, we successfully amended our credit agreement to increase our flexibility and temporarily paused activities related to the sale of our auto business, which we will resume once economic conditions allow. The pandemic has presented new challenges for us, and we are continuing to take the actions necessary to prioritize the health of our employees and to serve our customers and communities during these difficult times."
Financial Results
Net sales decreased 15 percent in the fourth quarter to $472.9 million, compared with $556.7 million in the prior year. The decrease was primarily driven by market-related volume declines in the automotive, off-highway and commercial vehicle markets in the Vehicular Thermal Solutions ("VTS") segment and lower data center, commercial HVAC and refrigeration sales in the Commercial and Industrial Solutions ("CIS") segment. This decline includes the impact of COVID-19 related plant closures around the world during the quarter.
Gross profit decreased 18 percent in the fourth quarter to $74.9 million, primarily driven by volume declines in the VTS and CIS segments. This was partially offset by higher gross profit in the Building HVAC ("BHVAC") segment, which increased 15 percent on slightly lower sales volume. Overall gross margin decreased 60 basis points during the quarter to 15.8 percent, primarily due to lower margins in the VTS and CIS segments as a result of lower sales volume.
Selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") expenses were $55.2 million in the fourth quarter, which was $9.0 million or 14 percent lower than the prior year. This decrease was primarily due to lower compensation-related expenses, including decreased incentive compensation, and the benefits from cost savings initiatives across the organization.
Operating income was $5.6 million in the fourth quarter, compared to $18.5 million in the prior year. This decrease was driven primarily by lower gross profit and asset impairment charges recorded in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2020, partially offset by lower SG&A and restructuring expenses as compared to the prior year. During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2020, the Company recorded $8.6 million of impairment charges primarily related to manufacturing facilities in Austria and Germany and $5.5 million of restructuring expenses primarily related to employee severance expenses. In addition, the Company recorded $5.0 million of costs to separate and prepare the automotive business for a potential sale. In the prior year, strategy and restructuring expenses and certain other items totaled $16.1 million. Excluding these items, adjusted operating income of $24.8 million was down 28 percent compared with $34.6 million in the prior year.
The loss per share was $0.13 in the fourth quarter, compared with earnings per share of $0.12 in the prior year. This decrease was primarily due to lower operating income compared to the prior year, including the impact of the impairment charges, and a higher effective tax rate. Adjusted earnings per share were $0.24 in the fourth quarter, compared with $0.40 in the prior year. This decrease was primarily due to lower adjusted operating income compared to the prior year.
Fourth Quarter Segment Review
- VTS segment sales were $279.5 million, compared with $340.0 million one year ago, a decrease of 18 percent. This decrease was driven by lower sales to all vehicular end markets and included the planned wind down of certain commercial vehicle programs. The segment reported gross margin of 12.8 percent, down 100 basis points from the prior year. This decrease was primarily due to lower sales volume. The segment's operating loss of $1.4 million decreased $11.1 million compared to operating income of $9.7 million in the prior year. This decrease was due to lower gross profit on the lower sales volume and the impact of $8.0 million in impairment charges, partially offset by lower SG&A and restructuring expenses as compared to the prior year.
- CIS segment sales were $150.9 million, compared with $178.5 million one year ago, a decrease of 15 percent. This decrease was driven by lower sales across all major end markets, including commercial HVAC, refrigeration and data centers. The segment reported gross margin of 15.3 percent, down 140 basis points compared with the prior year, primarily due to lower sales volumes and unfavorable sales mix. Operating income of $7.1 million was down $7.1 million, primarily due to lower gross profit and higher restructuring and impairment charges, partially offset by lower SG&A expenses as compared to the prior year.
- BHVAC segment sales were $51.2 million, compared with $52.5 million one year ago, a decrease of 2 percent. This decrease was driven primarily by lower sales of air conditioning and ventilation products in the U.K. The segment reported gross margin of 33.3 percent, which was 510 basis points higher than the prior year. This improvement was primarily due to favorable pricing and materials. The segment reported operating income of $8.8 million, an increase of $2.9 million, primarily due to higher gross profit and lower SG&A expenses.
Full-Year Fiscal 2020 Overview
In fiscal 2020, net sales decreased 11 percent to $1,975.5 million. The decrease was primarily driven by market -related declines in the Company's VTS and CIS segments, including lower data center sales in the CIS segment and the impact of COVID-19 related plant closures in the fourth quarter. This was partially offset by higher sales in the BHVAC segment, which increased 4 percent from the prior year. Gross margin decreased 90 basis points to 15.6 percent, primarily due to the lower sales volume in the Company's VTS and CIS segments.
Operating income was $37.9 million compared to $109.7 million in the prior year. During fiscal 2020 and 2019, automotive separation and strategy costs, restructuring expenses, impairment charges and certain other items totaled $59.4 million and $22.2 million, respectively. Excluding these items, adjusted operating income was $97.3 million in fiscal 2020 and $131.9 million in fiscal 2019. The loss per share in fiscal 2020 was $0.04 compared with earnings per share of $1.65 in fiscal 2019, and adjusted earnings per share in fiscal 2020 were $1.05, compared with $1.57 in fiscal 2019.
During the year, the Company successfully completed the physical separation of the Automotive business, and plans to report a separate Automotive segment beginning in the first quarter of fiscal 2021.
Balance Sheet & Liquidity
Total debt was $482.4 million as of March 31, 2020. Cash and cash equivalents at the end of the fourth quarter were $70.9 million, along with $117.5 million of capacity under the Company's revolving credit facility results in total available liquidity of $188.4 million at March 31, 2020. Net debt was $411.5 million as of March 31, 2020, an increase of $3.5 million from the end of fiscal 2019.
Net cash provided by operating activities for the year ended March 31, 2020 was $57.9 million, compared with $103.3 million one year ago. Free cash flow for fiscal 2020 was a use of $13.4 million. Fiscal 2020 free cash flow was negatively impacted by cash payments related to the potential sale of the automotive business and restructuring activities, which totaled $64.7 million.
As previously disclosed, during the first quarter of fiscal 2021, the Company amended its credit agreement to provide additional covenant flexibility through fiscal 2022, including a higher leverage ratio covenant limit during this period. The combined benefits of higher cash balances, available borrowing capacity, and revised covenants puts the Company in a strong position to manage through the global economic uncertainties.
Outlook
The Company is not providing a financial outlook at this time. There is currently significant uncertainty regarding the short-term and longer-term business impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic. Customer orders and production schedules are currently very unpredictable, so it is difficult to forecast revenue and earnings for fiscal 2021.
"We are making the difficult decisions necessary to run our business as we deal with the uncertainty created by the COVID-19 pandemic, including aligning our production schedules with customer demand, while implementing the protocols necessary to keep our employees and communities safe," commented Burke. "We are taking all the actions necessary to protect the company and preserve liquidity at the expected lower revenue levels. This includes reducing workforce where possible, implementing salary cuts and delaying all possible capital spending. At this time, it is very difficult to know the length and severity of the current economic downturn, but we believe that we will weather this storm and that our actions today will allow us to be in a strong position when end markets recover."

Non-GAAP Financial Disclosures
Adjusted operating income, adjusted earnings per share, net debt, and free cash flow (which are defined below) as used in this press release are not measures that are defined in generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). These non-GAAP measures are used by management as performance measures to evaluate the company's overall financial performance and liquidity. We believe these measures provide a more consistent view of performance than the closest GAAP equivalent for management and investors. Management compensates for this by using these measures in combination with the GAAP measures. However, these measures are not, and should not be viewed, as substitutes for the applicable GAAP measures, and may be different from similarly-titled measures used by other companies.
Definition – Adjusted operating income and earnings per share
Operating income or diluted earnings per share plus impairment charges, restructuring expenses, and acquisition and integration costs, and excluding certain other gains or charges. These are measures of overall performance not including non-cash impairment charges, costs associated with restructuring and acquisitions, and certain other gains or charges.
Definition – Net debt
The sum of debt due within one year and long-term debt, less cash and cash equivalents. This is an indicator of the company's debt position after considering on-hand cash balances.
Definition – Free cash flow
Free cash flow represents net cash provided by operating activities less expenditures for property, plant and equipment. This measure presents cash generated from operations during the period that is available for strategic capital decisions.

During fiscal 2020 and 2019, the Company recorded $39.2 million and $7.1 million, respectively, of costs at Corporate directly associated with its review of strategic alternatives for the Vehicular Thermal Solutions ("VTS") segment's automotive business, including costs to separate and prepare the business for a potential sale. With the exception of $3.1 million of costs in fiscal 2020 associated with program and equipment transfers recorded as costs of sales, these costs were recorded as SG&A expenses and primarily related to accounting, legal, and IT professional services. The tax benefit related to these costs during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2020 and 2019 was $1.3 million and $1.5 million, respectively. The tax benefit related to these costs during fiscal 2020 and 2019 was $9.6 million and $1.8 million, respectively. |
|||||||

Restructuring expenses primarily relate to employee severance expenses, largely resulting from targeted headcount reductions, and equipment transfer and plant consolidation costs. The tax benefit related to these costs during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2020 and fiscal 2019 was $1.3 million and $0.2 million, respectively. The tax benefit related to these costs during fiscal 2020 and fiscal 2019 was $2.3 million and $0.2 million, respectively. |

During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2020, the Company recorded asset impairment charges totaling $8.0 million within the VTS segment, primarily related to manufacturing facilities in Austria and Germany. The Company anticipates the future cash flows at these facilities will be negatively impacted by planned wind downs of certain commercial vehicle and automotive programs. Also in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2020, the Company recorded a $0.6 million impairment charge to reduce the carrying value of a previously-closed CIS manufacturing facility in Austria to its current estimated fair value. The tax benefit related to these impairment charges was $1.8 million. During fiscal 2019, the Company recorded a $0.4 million impairment charge related to the CIS facility in Austria. |
|||||||
(d) |
During fiscal 2020, the VTS segment sold a previously-closed manufacturing facility in Germany and, as a result, recorded a gain of $0.8 million. During fiscal 2019, the Building HVAC Systems segment sold its operations in South Africa and, as a result, recorded a loss of $1.7 million. Annual sales for this disposed business were less than $2.0 million. There were no tax impacts associated with these transactions. |
