On November 7, 2024, LSI Industries Inc. (“LSI” or the “Company”) issued a press release announcing operating results for the fiscal quarter ending September 30, 2024. A copy of the press release is furnished with this Form 8-K as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated by reference herein.

 

Item7.01.Regulation FD Disclosure.

 

On November 7, 2024, LSI is hosting a conference call for the benefit of its investors to discuss the results set forth in the press release described in Item 2.02 above. A copy of the presentation, which is available at www.lsicorp.com, related to this conference call is attached as Exhibit 99.2 to this report and is incorporated by reference herein.

 

LSI’s presentation discloses certain financial results both in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and on a non-GAAP basis with adjustments for certain items. LSI’s management believes that presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures and their related reconciliations are useful to investors because the non-GAAP financial measures provide investors with a basis for comparing the results to financial results from prior periods.

All such forward-looking statements are based largely on LSI’s experience and perception of current conditions, trends, expected future developments and other factors, and on management’s expectations, and are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially, including, but not limited to, those factors described in the presentation and in LSI’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. LSI disclaims any intention or obligation to update or revise any financial or other projections or other forward-looking statements, whether because of new information, future events or otherwise.

 

The information in each of Item 2.02 and Item 7.01 of this Form 8-K and in the press release attached as Exhibit 99.1 and the presentation attached as Exhibit 99.2 is being furnished and shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that Section. The information in each of Item 2.02 and Item 7.01 of this Form 8-K and each of Exhibit 99.1 and Exhibit 99.2 shall not be incorporated by reference in any filing (whether made before or after the date hereof) or any other document under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, regardless of any general incorporation language in any such filing, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in any such filing or document.

LSI INDUSTRIES REPORTS FISCAL 2025 FIRST QUARTER RESULTS

AND DECLARES QUARTERLY CASH DIVIDEND

 

CINCINNATI, November 7, 2024 – LSI Industries Inc. (Nasdaq: LYTS, “LSI” or the “Company”) a leading U.S. based manufacturer of commercial lighting and display solutions, today reported financial results for the fiscal 2025 first quarter ended September 30, 2024.

 

FISCAL 2025 FIRST QUARTER RESULTS

 

●

Net Sales of $138.1 million, +12% y/y

●

Net Income of $6.7 million, or $0.22 per diluted share

●

Adjusted Net Income of $8.0 million, or $0.26 per diluted share

●

EBITDA of $12.1 million; Adjusted EBITDA $13.4 million

●

Free Cash Flow of $11.1 million

●

Ratio of net debt to TTM Adjusted EBITDA of 0.8x

●

Display Solutions Backlog strong; Grocery vertical orders increased 90% y/y

 

LSI demonstrated strong commercial and operational execution during the fiscal 2025 first quarter, a performance highlighted by consistent profitability, solid free cash flow generation, disciplined balance sheet management, and successful integration of EMI Industries, which LSI acquired on April 18, 2024.

 

The Company reported first quarter sales of $138.1 million, an increase of 12% versus the prior-year period, including $26.2 million sales contribution from the acquisition of EMI. On a comparable basis, revenue was below the prior-year period, driven by the timing of customer orders within the grocery vertical, together with lower large project activity within the Lighting segment. Total orders and backlog increased for the quarter, driven in part by a recovery in orders within the grocery vertical.

 

LSI reported net income of $6.7 million and $0.22 per diluted share for the quarter, while adjusted net income was $8.0 million and $0.26 per share. EBITDA was $12.1 million for the quarter and adjusted EBITDA $13.4 million.

 

LSI’s acquisition activity has increased in recent years, and inorganic growth is part of our long-term growth strategy, as outlined in our Fast Forward plan. Management believes in providing increased transparency to our core operating results, therefore beginning with the fiscal first quarter 2025, LSI will include amortization expense related to acquired intangible assets as an add-back to its non-GAAP reconciliation. A complete reconciliation of GAAP and non-GAAP results, together with a comparison of current and prior year calculations, is included in this release.

LSI Industries Fiscal 2025 First Quarter Results

November 7, 2024

 

The Company generated free cash flow of $11.1 million in the first quarter, driven by earnings and working capital efficiency. LSI ended the first quarter with approximately $49.0 million in cash and available liquidity, and a ratio of net debt to trailing twelve-month adjusted EBITDA of 0.8x.

 

The Company declared a regular cash dividend of $0.05 per share payable on November 26, 2024, to shareholders of record on November 18, 2024.

 

MANAGEMENT COMMENTARY

 

“During a period of fluctuating demand levels within our vertical markets, LSI continues to build leading positions across our key markets during the first quarter, though a combination of new business wins, together with the recent, successful integration of EMI Industries,” stated James A. Clark, President, and Chief Executive Officer of LSI.

 

“We continued to execute on large, multi-year customer programs within our refueling/c-store vertical during the quarter, while order rates within our grocery vertical increased materially versus the prior-year period”, continued Clark. “Overall order rates increased versus prior year, resulting in a 12% increase in backlog entering the second quarter.

 

“The durability of our operating model was on display during the first quarter, as our diverse end-markets, long-term customer base, deep solutions portfolio, and unique value proposition supported a solid financial performance, highlighted by sustained profitability and free cash flow generation.

 

“Within our Display Solutions segment, we continued to execute on an elevated backlog of refueling/c-store program wins awarded in fiscal 2024, which partially offset slower scheduled project activity within the grocery vertical,” continued Clark. “Importantly, order rates within our grocery vertical increased 90% in the first quarter and remain strong early into the second quarter, as both deferred maintenance and planned investments begin to rebound. Our grocery vertical book-to-bill was 1.3x in the first quarter, driven by the adoption of the new R290 refrigerant solution and increased demand for non-refrigerated display case products. As grocery vertical demand resumes, with our new products and increased production capacity, LSI is positioned to support the requirements of our customer base.

 

“EMI delivered a near record performance in its first full quarter as an LSI company, driven by improved customer activity within the C-Store and Quick Serve Restaurant” (“QSR”) verticals, continued Clark. “Entering the fiscal second quarter, EMI continues to realize strong project quotation activity supported by a broad base of c-store, grocery and restaurant customer brands. Our integration of EMI is performing ahead of plan, with the collaboration with other divisions of LSI generating considerable cross-selling synergy opportunities across our comprehensive product and solution offerings.

 

“We forecast positive activity to continue for Display Solutions in the fiscal second quarter with comparable sales expected to increase year-over-year, and backlog continuing to improve,” stated Clark. “Our second half fiscal 2025 is developing favorably, as much of the recent order activity is scheduled to commence after the holiday season, when store renovation activity is limited.

LSI Industries Fiscal 2025 First Quarter Results

November 7, 2024

 

“Within our Lighting segment, net sales declined year-over year due to lower levels of large project activity,” continued Clark. “While smaller project activity remains healthy, supported by a stable quote-to-order conversion period, we’ve seen a lengthening in the conversion period for large projects, particularly within the warehouse vertical, where construction starts have slowed. Conversely, we’ve continued to experience demand growth in select verticals, including refueling and sport court applications. We anticipate that our Lighting Segment performance will improve in the second quarter, when compared to the year-ago period, and larger known projects, many of which are on hold pending final approval, are released to move forward in the first half of calendar year 2025. Selling prices and material input costs remain stable across all verticals and applications.

 

“Our Lighting go-to-market model is led by our strong portfolio of outdoor solutions,” stated Clark. “Our area lighting offering is considered one of the best in the industry, led by our Mirada series of products. In the first quarter we formally launched an innovative family of area lights to complement our Mirada range, representing our largest lighting product launch in seven years. The V-LOCITY series fixtures offer a sleek, streamlined aesthetic design, and many distinct features providing numerous benefits to end users. Highlighting the benefits is the modular and configurable optical distribution options, customizable to specific applications. Ease and speed of installation is also a major differentiator, providing a unique, simplified solution to the challenging installation process. The interchangeable mounting system along with a lighter weight fixture is expected to generate a 45% reduction in installation time, representing a significant savings to the contractor and end-user.

 

Clark concluded “We have built a stronger, more capable business during the last several years, a durable platform equipped to deliver profitable growth, consistent with the financial targets outlined in our Fast Forward plan. We see significant opportunities for both organic and inorganic growth over the coming years as we capitalize on the favorable, long-term secular tailwinds evident across our key vertical markets. We remain committed to a balanced, disciplined approach to capital allocation, maximizing the balance of economic returns, ongoing investment, and shareholder value.”

The current ratio was 2.1 to 1. The balance sheet included shareholders’ equity of $211.2 million and long-term debt of $44.1 million.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

 

This press release includes adjustments to GAAP operating income, net income, and earnings per share for the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023. Operating income, net income, and earnings per share, which exclude the impact of long-term performance based compensation expense, the amortization expense of acquired intangible assets, commercial growth opportunity expense, acquisition costs, the lease expense on the step-up basis of acquired leases, and restructuring and severance costs, are non-GAAP financial measures. We further note that while the amortization expense of acquired intangible assets is excluded from the non-GAAP financial measures, the revenue of the acquired companies is included in the measures and the acquired assets contribute to the generation of revenue. We believe these non-GAAP measures will provide increased transparency to our core operating performance of the business. Also included in this press release are non-GAAP financial measures, including Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA), Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDA, and Free Cash Flow. We believe that these are useful as supplemental measures in assessing the operating performance of our business. These measures are used by our management, including our chief operating decision maker, to evaluate business results, and are frequently referenced by those who follow the Company. These non-GAAP measures may be different from non-GAAP measures used by other companies. In addition, the non-GAAP measures are not based on any comprehensive set of accounting rules or principles. Non-GAAP measures have limitations, in that they do not reflect all amounts associated with our results as determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Therefore, these measures should be used only to evaluate our results in conjunction with corresponding GAAP measures. Below is a reconciliation of these non-GAAP measures to net income and earnings per share reported for the periods indicated along with the calculation of EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Free Cash Flow, and Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDA.
