JBT Corporation Reports First Quarter 2024 Results and Reiterates Full Year 2024 Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EPS Guidance
"JBT's financial results for the first quarter, which is typically the seasonally slowest quarter, were in line with our expectations," said Brian Deck, President and Chief Executive Officer. "We are executing on our pure-play strategy and focusing on continuous improvement efforts within our operations, as demonstrated by JBT's sixth consecutive quarter of year-over-year improvement in margins."
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/.
First Quarter 2024 Results
AeroTech's financial results were transitioned to discontinued operations beginning in the second quarter of 2023, and prior period financial results have been recast accordingly. The below paragraphs reflect JBT's results from continuing operations.
"As expected, JBT's margins improved year over year primarily driven by cost savings from our supply chain initiatives and restructuring program," said Matt Meister, Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer.
First quarter 2024 revenue of $392 million increased 1 percent year over year. Income from continuing operations of $23 million increased 33 percent. Adjusted EBITDA of $57 million increased 6 percent, and adjusted EBITDA margin of 14.6 percent increased 60 basis points. During the first quarter of 2024, JBT completed actions related to its restructuring program, resulting in approximately $1 million expense in the quarter and cumulative expense of approximately $18 million. JBT realized approximately $4 million in restructuring savings during the quarter and is on track to achieve cumulative annual run-rate cost savings of approximately $18 million exiting the second quarter of 2024.
First quarter 2024 diluted earnings per share (EPS) of $0.71 increased 34 percent, and adjusted EPS of $0.85 increased 39 percent. Included in EPS was a $9 million improvement, or approximately $0.22 per share, from net interest expense.
First quarter 2024 backlog totaled $664 million, and orders of $389 million decreased 4 percent due to select market softness in North America, including timing of warehouse automation orders and continuation of the slower investment profile in the poultry market. That said, North American poultry market fundamentals have continued to improve, leading to better cash flow and profitability as well as a more positive sentiment for investment among JBT customers. As such, JBT's pipeline activity is improving, which is expected to translate to increased orders during the second quarter of 2024.
JBT generated first quarter 2024 operating cash flow from continuing operations of $10 million and free cash flow of $1 million. JBT's net leverage ratio was 0.6x net debt to trailing twelve months adjusted EBITDA.
2024 Outlook
For the full year 2024, JBT continues to expect solid year-over-year revenue growth and margin expansion. Revenue guidance was updated to reflect current expectations for foreign exchange translation, while the forecast for year-over-year organic revenue growth remains 4 - 6 percent.
Full year guidance for income from continuing operations and GAAP EPS was updated to reflect current expectations of $30 - $35 million for M&A related costs, an estimated $4 million net interest expense impact from the new bridge financing facility secured in anticipation of the combination with Marel, and an expected discrete tax benefit of $8 - $9 million from tax planning actions. These anticipated costs and the discrete tax benefit do not impact adjusted EBITDA or adjusted EPS, which remain unchanged from the previous guidance.
Additionally, JBT's full year forecast for net interest income is now approximately $2 million, which includes the $4 million estimated impact from bridge financing costs. The expected tax rate remains 22 - 23 percent, which is prior to any discrete items.
Guidance
--------------------
$ millions except EPS FY 2024
--------------------
Revenue $1,735 - $1,765
Income from continuing operations $142 - $154
Adjusted EBITDA(1) $295 - $310
Adjusted EBITDA margin 17.0 - 17.5%
GAAP EPS $4.40 - $4.80
Adjusted EPS(1) $5.05 - $5.45
JBT continues to forecast a revenue split of approximately 47 percent in the first half of 2024 with approximately 53 percent in the second half of 2024. JBT continues to expect margin improvement during each sequential quarter in 2024 as market conditions are expected to improve and strategic sourcing actions flow through to the results.
Combination with Marel
On April 4, 2024, JBT and Marel (ICL: Marel) executed a definitive transaction agreement related to JBT's previously announced intention to make a voluntary takeover offer for all of the issued and outstanding shares of Marel. The transaction agreement included the terms of the offer and other important governance, social, and operating items relating to the proposed business combination.
JBT and Marel completed confirmatory due diligence, which reaffirmed JBT's belief in the compelling industrial logic of the combination as well as the value creating opportunities. As a result of operating scale and efficiencies, JBT continues to expect annual run-rate cost synergies of more than $125 million within three years following the completion of the transaction. JBT anticipates approximately 55 percent of the cost synergies will be driven by operating expense savings with approximately 45 percent driven by cost of goods sold savings. JBT also expects substantial revenue synergies from cross-selling opportunities, enhanced service, and an overall improved value proposition.
Additionally, JBT and Marel have made significant progress towards the launch of the offer. In mid-April 2024, JBT initiated the review process of the offer document and prospectus with the Icelandic Financial Supervisory Authority of the Central Bank of Iceland (FSA). In May 2024, JBT expects to file a Registration Statement on Form S-4, which will contain a preliminary proxy statement/prospectus, with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). Upon receipt of FSA approval of the offer document and prospectus, JBT expects to promptly launch the voluntary takeover offer. While the timeline to close the transaction remains primarily dependent on the regulatory clearance process, including those required under antitrust and competition laws, JBT continues to plan for a transaction close by the end of 2024.
