Cooper Standard Reports Continuing Year-over-year Margin Improvement in First Quarter 2024, Sees Upside to Full-year Guidance

NORTHVILLE, Mich., May 6, 2024 -- Cooper-Standard Holdings Inc. (NYSE: CPS) today reported results for the first quarter 2024.

First Quarter 2024 Summary
•Gross profit totaled $61.6 million, an increase of 47.4% compared to first quarter 2023
•Operating income of $3.5 million reflected an increase of $17.9 million vs. the first quarter of 2023
•Net loss of $31.7 million, or $(1.81) per diluted share, reflected an improvement of $98.7 million vs. the first quarter 2023
•Adjusted EBITDA of $29.3 million reflected an increase of $16.9 million vs. the first quarter of 2023
•New product-based segmentation and management structure expected to drive further operational improvements, optimize asset and resource allocation and accelerate value creation

“Our first quarter operational improvements and margin expansion set a solid foundation for a strong 2024,” said Jeffrey Edwards, chairman and CEO, Cooper Standard. “Going forward, through our new product line-based management structure, we expect to aggressively pursue further cost structure optimization, leverage commercial opportunities to accelerate growth and enhance value creation. Successful implementation of these initiatives is expected to drive meaningful additional margin expansion and should represent upside to our original full-year guidance, assuming industry production volumes hold.”

Adjusted EBITDA
$29.3 $12.5 
The year-over-year change in first quarter sales was primarily attributable to the divestiture of our Technical Rubber business in the third quarter of 2023 and unfavorable foreign exchange. These were partially offset by favorable volume and mix, including sustainable price adjustments.

Net loss for the first quarter 2024 was $31.7 million, including restructuring charges of $1.1 million and other special items. Net loss for the first quarter 2023 was $130.4 million, including $81.9 million in charges related to debt refinancing, restructuring charges of $2.4 million and other special items. Excluding these special items, adjusted net loss was $30.6 million in the first quarter 2024 compared to adjusted net loss of $46.2 million in the first quarter of 2023. The year-over-year improvement was primarily due to favorable volume and mix, sustainable price adjustments and savings generated from lean manufacturing and purchasing initiatives. These positive drivers
1
cslogohorizontala23a.jpg

were partially offset by continuing inflationary pressure, including higher labor and energy costs, and unfavorable foreign exchange.

Adjusted EBITDA for the first quarter of 2024 was $29.3 million compared to $12.5 million in the first quarter of 2023. The year-over-year improvement was primarily due to favorable volume and mix, sustainable price adjustments, and savings generated from lean manufacturing and purchasing initiatives. These items were partially offset by continuing inflationary pressures, including higher labor and energy costs, and unfavorable foreign exchange.

Adjusted net loss, adjusted EBITDA and adjusted loss per diluted share are non-GAAP measures. Reconciliations to the most directly comparable financial measures, calculated and presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”), are provided in the attached supplemental schedules.

New Business Awards

The Company continues to leverage its world-class engineering and manufacturing capabilities, its innovation programs and its reputation for quality and service to win new business awards with its OEM customers and capitalize on positive trends associated with hybrid and battery electric vehicles. During the first quarter of 2024, the Company received net new business awards totaling $66.2 million in anticipated future annualized sales. This included $34.0 million of net new business awards on hybrid vehicle platforms and $19.1 million of net new business awards on battery electric vehicles.

Segment Results of Operations

As of the beginning of 2024, the Company has realigned its operating management structure on a product line basis rather than the prior geographic region basis. The new structure is expected to optimize asset and resource allocation, enhance operating efficiency and aid in accelerating growth. As a result of the structural change, the Company will now report financial results across two product line segments - Sealing Systems and Fluid Handling Systems. On this basis, the segment results for the first quarter are as follows:

Cash and Liquidity

As of March 31, 2024, Cooper Standard had cash and cash equivalents totaling $114.2 million. Total liquidity, including availability under the Company's amended senior asset-based revolving credit facility, was $281.6 million at the end of the first quarter of 2024.

Based on current expectations for light vehicle production and customer demand for our products, the Company believes it has sufficient financial resources to support ongoing operations and the execution of planned strategic initiatives for the foreseeable future. These financial resources include current cash on hand, continuing access to flexible credit facilities, and expected future positive cash generation.

Outlook

Industry projections for full-year global light vehicle production in 2024 are similar to levels realized in 2023. In this broad macro industry view, the Company expects to continue leveraging new program launches and enhanced commercial agreements to drive further growth above the market. In addition, the Company expects to continue driving operational efficiency and improvement through additional aggressive lean cost structure initiatives. As these initiatives were not contemplated when the 2024 business plan was developed, we believe successful implementation will drive meaningful additional margin expansion and should represent upside to the Company's original full-year guidance, assuming industry production volumes achieve planned levels. The Company expects to provide a formal update to full-year guidance when it reports second quarter results.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, adjusted net income (loss), adjusted earnings (loss) per share and free cash flow are measures not recognized under U.S. GAAP and which exclude certain non-cash and special items that may obscure trends and operating performance not indicative of the Company’s core financial activities. Net new business is a measure not recognized under U.S. GAAP which is a representation of potential incremental future revenue but which may not fully reflect all external impacts to future revenue. Management considers EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, adjusted net income (loss), adjusted earnings (loss) per share, free cash flow and net new business to be key indicators of the Company’s operating performance and believes that these and similar measures are widely used by investors, securities analysts and other interested parties in evaluating the Company’s performance. In addition, similar measures are utilized in the calculation of the financial covenants and ratios contained in the Company’s financing arrangements and management uses these measures for developing internal budgets and forecasting purposes. EBITDA is defined as net income (loss) adjusted to reflect income tax expense (benefit), interest expense net of interest income, depreciation and amortization, and adjusted EBITDA is defined as EBITDA further adjusted to reflect certain items that management does not consider to be reflective of the Company’s core operating performance. Adjusted net income (loss) is defined as net income (loss) adjusted to reflect certain items that management does not consider to be reflective of the Company’s core operating performance. Adjusted EBITDA margin is defined as adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of sales. Adjusted basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share is defined as adjusted net income (loss) divided by the weighted average number of basic and diluted shares, respectively, outstanding during the period. Free cash flow is defined as net cash provided by operating activities minus capital expenditures and is useful to both management and investors in evaluating the Company’s ability to service and repay its debt. Net new business reflects anticipated sales from formally awarded programs, less lost business, discontinued programs and replacement programs and is based on S&P Global (IHS Markit) forecast production volumes. The calculation of “net new business” does not reflect customer price reductions on existing programs and may be impacted by various assumptions embedded in the respective calculation, including actual vehicle production levels on new programs, foreign exchange rates and the timing of major program launches.
When analyzing the Company’s operating performance, investors should use EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, adjusted net income (loss), adjusted earnings (loss) per share, free cash flow and net new business as supplements to, and not as alternatives for, net income (loss), operating income, or any other performance measure derived in accordance with U.S. GAAP, and not as an alternative to cash flow from operating activities as a measure of the Company’s liquidity. EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income (loss), adjusted earnings (loss) per share, free cash flow and net new business have limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered in isolation or as substitutes for analysis of the Company’s results of operations as reported under U.S. GAAP. Other companies may report EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, adjusted net income (loss), adjusted earnings (loss) per share, free cash flow and net new business differently and therefore the Company’s results may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies. In addition, in evaluating adjusted EBITDA and adjusted net income (loss), it should be noted that in the future the Company may incur expenses similar to or in excess of the adjustments in the below presentation. This presentation of adjusted EBITDA and adjusted net income (loss) should not be construed as an inference that the Company’s future results will be unaffected by special items. Reconciliations of EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, adjusted net income (loss) and free cash flow follow.
