“While 2022 was a year of macro-related challenges and uncertainty, our global team maintained a relentless focus and discipline in executing against our strategic priorities,” said Phil Eyler, Gentherm’s President and Chief Executive Officer.

“As we continue to further fortify our role in the future of thermal and pneumatic comfort, I commend all our team members for the success that we had in the past year, despite the challenging industry dynamics. In 2022, we achieved record revenue, secured an unprecedented $1.8 billion dollars in new automotive awards, closed our acquisitions of Alfmeier and Dacheng Medical, and continued to innovate.”

Eyler continued, “The increasing demand for our products is demonstrative of Gentherm’s position at the forefront of innovation in both the Automotive and Medical industries. We are committed to executing our

four closely bound strategic imperatives Focused Growth, Extend Technology Leadership, Deliver Financial Excellence and Leverage World Class Talent and Culture, creating a flywheel of profitable growth. While we continue to effectively navigate the macroenvironment as it evolves, we remain laser-focused on capitalizing on the exciting opportunities ahead of us and driving significant shareholder value in the longer-term.”

2022 Fourth Quarter Financial Review

Product revenues of $343.3 million increased $95.1 million, or 38.3%, in the fourth quarter of 2022 compared with the prior-year period. Excluding the impact of foreign currency translation and contributions from acquisitions, product revenues increased 20.9% year over year.

Automotive revenue increased 40.0% year over year driven by contribution from the acquisition of Alfmeier as well as growth in Steering Wheel Heaters, Climate Controlled Seat, Seat Heaters, and Electronics. Adjusting for foreign currency translation and the impact of the Alfmeier acquisition, organic Automotive revenue increased 22.5% year over year. According to S&P Global’s mid-February 2023 report, actual light vehicle production in the fourth quarter of 2022 increased by 2.5% compared to the fourth quarter of 2021 in the Company’s key markets of North America, Europe, China, Japan and Korea.

Gentherm Medical revenue increased 1.6% year over year, primarily as a result of contributions from Dacheng Medical. Adjusting for the contribution from Dacheng and foreign currency translation, Medical revenues decreased 14.9%, due primarily to the reduction in capital spending in U.S. hospitals.

See the “Revenues by Product Category” table included below for additional detail.

Gross margin rate was 20.3% in the current-year period versus 27.1% in the prior-year period, primarily as a result of an impairment charge related to the exit of the non-automotive electronics business, the acquired Alfmeier business having a lower gross margin rate relative to the Company’s organic business, wage and material inflation, as well as the negative impact from foreign currency translation. These were partially offset by cost recoveries from customers and fixed cost leverage from higher unit volume.

Net research and development expenses of $23.3 million in the 2022 fourth quarter increased $4.5 million, or 24.0% over the prior-year period, primarily as a result of the additional expenses from the Alfmeier business and increased investments in ClimateSense® and battery performance solutions.

Selling, general and administrative expenses of $36.6 million in the 2022 fourth quarter increased $10.1 million, or 38.3%, versus the prior-year period. The year-over-year increase was primarily driven by $4.3 million of expenses associated with the Alfmeier and Dacheng acquisitions and additional expenses from the acquired businesses, partially offset by lower incentive compensation.

Acquisition expenses of $4.3 million in the current-year period were $4.1 million higher than the prior-year period as a result of expenses associated with the Alfmeier and Dacheng acquisitions. Restructuring expenses of $0.08 million in the current-year period were $0.15 million lower than the prior-year period. The Company recorded impairment charges of $15.7 million for write downs of inventory, intangible assets and property and equipment related to the exit of the non-Automotive electronic business in the current-year period.

As described more fully in the “Reconciliation of Net (Loss) Income to Adjusted EBITDA” table included below, the Company recorded Adjusted EBITDA of $38.2 million in the 2022 fourth quarter compared with $30.9 million in the prior-year period, an increase of $7.2 million or 23.4%.

Income tax benefit in the 2022 fourth quarter was $0.1 million, as compared with an expense of $2.5 million in the prior-year period.

GAAP diluted loss per share for the fourth quarter of 2022 was $(0.13) compared with $0.60 for the prior-year period. Adjusted diluted earnings per share, excluding impairment of intangible assets and property and equipment, non-cash purchasing accounting impact, acquisition and divestiture expenses and unrealized currency loss (see table herein), was $0.47. Adjusted diluted earnings per share in the prior-year period was $0.61.

2022 Full Year Financial Review

For full-year 2022, the Company reported product revenues of $1,204.7 million, a 15.2% increase over the prior year. Excluding the impact of foreign currency translation and contributions from acquisitions, product revenues increased 10.6% year over year.

In the Automotive segment, 2022 full-year revenue was $1,161.6 million, a 15.6% increase compared to the prior year. Revenue increased in all product categories except Electronics and Automotive Cables. Adjusting for foreign currency translation and the impact of the Alfmeier acquisition, organic Automotive revenue increased 11.1% year over year. According to IHS Markit's mid-February 2023 report for full-year 2022, actual light vehicle production increased 4.7% compared to full-year 2021 in the Company’s key markets of North America, Europe, China, Japan and Korea.

The Medical segment revenue was $43.0 million for full-year 2022, a 3.7% increase compared to the prior year. Adjusting for the contribution from Dacheng and foreign currency translation, Medical revenues decreased 1.9%, due primarily to the reduction in capital spending in U.S. hospitals.

Gross margin rate was 22.7% in 2022, a 630-basis point decrease from 2021, primarily as a result of wage and material inflation, the negative impact from industry-wide supply chain disruptions, the negative impact from foreign currency translation, the acquired Alfmeier business having a lower gross margin rate relative to the Company’s organic business, as well as an impairment charge related to the exit of the non-automotive electronics business. These were partially offset by fixed cost leverage from higher unit volume and cost recoveries from customers.

Net research and development expenses of $85.7 million in 2022 increased 14.0% primarily as a result of the additional expenses from the Alfmeier business and increased investments in ClimateSense® and battery performance solutions.

Selling, general and administrative expenses of $132.7 million in 2022 increased $23.1 million, or 21.1%, versus the prior-year period. The year-over-year increase was primarily driven by $18.8 million of expenses associated with the Alfmeier and Dacheng acquisitions and additional expenses from the acquired businesses, partially offset by lower incentive compensation.

Acquisition expenses of $22.6 million in 2022 were $21.4 million higher than the prior year as a result of expenses associated with the Alfmeier and Dacheng acquisitions as previously noted in SG&A expenses and $3.8 million realized foreign currency loss. The Company incurred $0.6 million restructuring expenses in 2022, compared to $3.9 million in the prior-year period. The Company recorded impairment charges of $15.7 million for write downs of inventory, intangible assets and property and equipment related to the exit of the non-Automotive electronic business in 2022.

As described more fully in the “Reconciliation of Net (Loss) Income to Adjusted EBITDA” table included below, the Company recorded Adjusted EBITDA of $129.8 million in 2022 compared with $157.0 million in the prior year, a decrease of $27.2 million or 17.3%.

Income tax expense in 2022 was $13.9 million, as compared with $20.4 million in the prior year. The effective tax rate was 36.2% for 2022. This rate differed from the Federal statutory rate of 21%, primarily due to non-deductible expenses associated with the acquisitions as well as unfavorable geographic mix of earnings.

GAAP diluted earnings per share for full-year 2022 was $0.73, as compared with $2.79 for the prior year. Adjusted diluted earnings per share, excluding non-cash purchase accounting impact, unrealized currency loss, restructuring expenses and other impacts (see table herein), was $1.82. Adjusted diluted earnings per share in the prior year was $3.01.

For comparison to the 2023 guidance, the Company is providing the proforma* 2022 Product Revenues and Adjusted EBITDA margin to include the results of Alfmeier from January 1st, 2022. In addition, starting with our 2023 reporting, the Company will exclude the impact of non-cash stock-based compensation from the Adjusted EBITDA results. The table below illustrates how both the 2022 results and 2022 proforma* would have been had the Company made this adjustment in 2022.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

 

In addition to the results reported in accordance with GAAP throughout this release, the Company has provided here or elsewhere information regarding adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“Adjusted EBITDA”), Adjusted EBITDA margin, adjusted earnings per share (“Adjusted earnings per share” or “Adjusted EPS”), free cash flow, Net Debt, organic revenue, revenue excluding acquired businesses and foreign currency translation, revenue excluding foreign currency translation, adjusted operating expenses, pro forma product revenues, Adjusted EBITDA excluding non-cash stock-based compensation, Adjusted EBITDA margin excluding non-cash stock-based compensation, pro forma adjusted EBITDA excluding non-cash stock-based compensation and pro forma adjusted EBITDA margin excluding non-cash stock-based compensation, each a non-GAAP financial measure. The Company defines Adjusted EBITDA as (losses) earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, deferred financing cost amortization, and other gains and losses not reflective of the Company’s ongoing operations and related tax effects including transaction expenses, debt retirement expenses, impairment of assets held for sale, gain or loss on sale of business, restructuring expense, unrealized currency gain or loss and unrealized revaluation of derivatives. The Company defines Adjusted EBITDA margin as Adjusted EBITDA divided by product revenues. The Company defines Adjusted EPS as (losses) earnings adjusted by gains and losses not reflective of the Company’s ongoing operations and related tax effects including transaction expenses, debt retirement expenses, impairment of assets held for sale, gain or loss on sale of business, restructuring expense, unrealized currency gain or loss and unrealized revaluation of derivatives. The Company defines Free Cash Flow as Net cash (used in) provided by operating activities less Purchases of property and equipment. The Company defines Net Debt as the principal amount of all Consolidated Funded Indebtedness (as defined in the Credit Agreement) less cash and cash equivalents. The Company defines organic revenue as revenue, excluding revenue from acquired businesses. Note that in recent prior periods, the Company used organic revenue instead to be revenue excluding foreign currency translation (see below). The Company defines revenue excluding acquired businesses and foreign currency translation as revenue, excluding the revenue from acquired businesses and the estimated effects of foreign currency exchange on revenue by translating actual revenue using the prior period foreign currency exchange rates. The Company defines revenue excluding

foreign currency translation as revenue, excluding the estimated effects of foreign currency exchange on revenue by translating actual revenue using the prior period foreign currency exchange rates. The Company defines adjusted operating expenses as operating expenses excluding impairment of intangible assets and property and equipment, restructuring, acquisition and divestiture expenses The Company defines pro forma product revenues as product revenues including the full year product revenues of Alfmeier. The Company defines Adjusted EBITDA excluding non-cash stock-based compensation as Adjusted EBITDA, as defined above, excluding non-cash stock-based compensation expenses. The Company defines Adjusted EBITDA margin excluding non-cash stock-based compensation as Adjusted EBITDA excluding non-cash stock-based compensation, as defined above, divided by product revenues. The Company defines pro forma Adjusted EBITDA excluding non-cash stock-based compensation as Adjusted EBITDA excluding non-cash stock-based compensation, as defined above, including the full year results of Alfmeier. The Company defines pro forma adjusted EBITDA margin excluding non-cash stock-based compensation as pro forma adjusted EBITDA excluding non-cash stock-based compensation, as defined above, divided by pro forma product revenues.

 

The Company’s reconciliations are included in this release or can be found in the supplemental materials furnished as Exhibit 99.2 to the Company’s Form 8-K dated February 22, 2023.

 

In evaluating its business, the Company considers and uses Free Cash Flow and Net Debt as supplemental measures of its liquidity and the other non-GAAP financial measures as supplemental measures of its operating performance. Management provides such non-GAAP financial measures so that investors will have the same financial information that management uses with the belief that it will assist investors in properly assessing the Company's performance on a period-over-period basis by excluding matters not indicative of the Company’s ongoing operating or liquidity results. In evaluating our non-GAAP financial measures, you should be aware that in the future we may incur revenues, expenses, and cash and non-cash obligations that are the same as or similar to some of the adjustments in our presentation of non-GAAP financial measures. Our presentation of non-GAAP financial measures should not be construed as an inference that our future results will be unaffected by unusual or non-recurring items. There also can be no assurance that we will not modify the presentation of our non-GAAP financial measures in the future, and any such modification may be material. Other companies in our industry may define and calculate these non-GAAP financial measures differently than we do and those calculations may not be comparable to our metrics. These non-GAAP measures have limitations as analytical tools, and when assessing the Company's operating performance or liquidity, investors should not consider these non-GAAP measures in isolation, or as a substitute for net (loss) income, revenue or other consolidated (loss) income statement or cash flow statement data prepared in accordance with GAAP.

 

Non-GAAP measures referenced in this release and other public communications may include estimates of future Adjusted EBITDA excluding non-cash stock-based compensation, Adjusted EBITDA margin excluding non-cash stock- based compensation and Adjusted EPS. Such forward-looking non-GAAP measures may differ significantly from the corresponding GAAP measures, due to tax expense, interest expense, and/or estimates of certain other matters that may not be indicative of the Company’s ongoing operating results some or all of which management has not quantified for the future periods.

Except as required by law, the Company expressly disclaims any obligation or undertaking to update any forward-looking statements to reflect any change in its strategies or expectations with regard thereto or any change in events, conditions or circumstances on which any such statement is based. The forward-looking statements are subject to a number of important assumptions, risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause actual results or performance to differ materially from that expressed or implied by such statements.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures* Proprietary © Gentherm 2023 In addition to the results reported herein in accordance with GAAP, the Company has provided here or may discuss on the related conference call Adjusted Operating Expense, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, Adjusted EBITDA excluding non-cash stock-based compensation, Adjusted EBITDA margin excluding non-cash stock-based compensation, Adjusted EPS, Free Cash Flow, Net Debt, organic revenue, revenue excluding acquired businesses and foreign currency translation, revenue excluding foreign currency translation, and gross margin rate excluding acquired businesses and pro forma product revenues, each a non-GAAP financial measure.

Forward-looking references to Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin herein exclude the impact of stock-based compensation as newly defined. References to Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin for prior periods have not been recast and include the impact of non-cash stock-based compensation. See the Company’s earnings release dated February 22, 2023, for the definitions of each non-GAAP financial measure, information regarding why the Company utilizes such non-GAAP measures as supplemental measures of performance or liquidity, and their limitations, and for certain reconciliations of GAAP to non-GAAP historical financial measures. * See Appendix for certain reconciliations of GAAP to non-GAAP historical financial measures.

2023 Guidance Proprietary © Gentherm 2023 8 2022 A 2022 Proforma 2023 E Product Revenue (1)(2) $1.2B $1.3B $1.45B - $1.55B Adjusted EBITDA Margin excluding non-cash stock-based compensation expenses (1)(2)(3)(4) 11.4% 10.4% 11.5% – 13.5% Adjusting EBITDA Margin as reported 10.8% 9.8% Effective Tax Rate 36% 28% - 32% Capital Expenditures $40M $46M $60M - $70M Based on the current forecast of customer orders, inflation and pricing recovery, and light vehicle production in the Company’s key markets growing at a low single-digit rate in 2023 versus 2022. The 2023 guidance is based on a full year average exchange rate of $1.05/Euro. Starting in 2023, the company will exclude the impact of non-cash stock-based compensation in its calculation of Adjusted EBITDA Margin. Unaudited proforma information is provided for illustrative purposes only and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements to better facilitate the assessment and measurement of the Company's operating performance. Such information is not, and should not be assumed to be, an indication of the actual results of the combined company that would have been achieved or may be achieved in the future. Due to the inherent difficulty of forecasting the timing and amount of certain items that would impact net income margin, such as foreign currency gains and losses, we are unable to reasonably estimate net income margin, the GAAP financial measure most directly comparable to Adjusted EBITDA margin. Accordingly, we are unable to provide a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA margin to net income margin with respect to the guidance provided.
