Sypris Solutions, Inc. (Nasdaq/GM: SYPR) today reported financial results for its third quarter ended October 1, 2023.
HIGHLIGHTS
─────────────────────
────────────────────
“We were pleased with our third quarter performance, as both operating segments reported significant growth in revenue, gross profit, and gross margin. Our teammates have done an excellent job navigating inflationary pressures, supply chain challenges, customer demand volatility and currency fluctuations to position the business for further growth and increased profitability during the remainder of 2023,” commented Jeffrey T. Gill, President and Chief Executive Officer.
“Backlog for Sypris Electronics increased, rising 9.0% on a year-over-year basis. This strong backlog is expected to support revenue growth over the balance of this year and 2024. Customer funding has already been secured for a portion of these key programs, which enables us to procure inventory under multi-year purchase orders to mitigate future supply chain issues.
“Overall demand from customers serving the automotive, commercial vehicle, sport utility and off-highway markets has remained stable. We continue to invest in new equipment and drive continuous improvement initiatives to support more cost-efficient operations, which will help offset headwinds for our automotive and commercial vehicle components as our customers adjust inventory levels to align with OEM build schedules.
“Shipments of Sypris Technologies energy products increased 27.3% year-over-year, while orders during the quarter increased 24.1% sequentially. With open quotes outstanding on several large projects both domestically and internationally, additional opportunities for growth may exist with these and other projects in support of elevated domestic natural gas production and in adjacent markets to further diversify our industry and customer portfolios.”
Third Quarter Results
The Company reported revenue of $33.6 million for the third quarter of 2023, compared to $25.2 million for the prior-year comparable period. Additionally, the Company reported a net loss of $0.6 million, or $0.03 per share, compared to a net loss of $2.2 million, or $0.10 per share for the prior-year period. Results for the quarter reflected the unfavorable impact of the appreciation of the Mexican peso relative to the U.S. dollar.
For the nine months ended October 1, 2023, the Company reported revenue of $101.5 million compared with $80.4 million for the first nine months of 2022. The Company reported a net loss of $0.5 million, or $0.02 per share compared with a net loss of $2.6 million, or $0.12 per share, for the prior-year period.
Sypris Technologies
Revenue for Sypris Technologies increased to $19.3 million in the third quarter of 2023, compared to $17.0 million for the prior-year period. Commercial vehicle component shipments and energy-related product sales both increased during the quarter. Gross profit for the third quarter of 2023 was $1.5 million, or 7.5% of revenue, compared to $1.1 million, or 6.3% of revenue, for the same period in 2022. The strength of the Mexican peso relative to the US dollar had a negative impact of $0.8 million on gross profit when compared to the prior-year period.
Sypris Electronics
Revenue for Sypris Electronics increased to $14.2 million in the third quarter of 2023 compared to $8.2 million for the prior-year period. Shipments of communications products increased significantly during the quarter, driving the increase in revenue. Additionally, shipments under two follow-on programs began ramping during the quarter and contributed to the growth over the prior-year comparable period. Supply chain constraints and delays in certain customer approvals limited shipments and revenue from certain programs during the quarter, while also contributing to a $12.0 sequential increase in inventory. Gross profit for the third quarter of 2023 was $2.6 million, or 18.1% of revenue, compared to $0.9 million, or 11.0% of revenue, for the same period in 2022. Margins improved on higher volume, favorable mix, and cost savings on certain component purchases.
Outlook
Commenting on the future, Mr. Gill added, “Demand from customers in the defense and communication sectors remain robust while demand also remains strong from customers serving the automotive and sport utility markets. Similarly, demand from energy market customers remains higher than in the prior year and continues to move in the right direction.
“We have updated our outlook for 2023 to include a 25% growth in the top line, which is at the lower end of our previous guidance. Gross profit is expected to increase in line with revenue, while the continuing unfavorable impact of the Mexican peso relative to the U.S. dollar and changes in the revenue mix are anticipated to impact margin for the full year.
“With a strong backlog, new program wins and long-term contract extensions in place, we are confident that 2024 has the potential to be very positive for Sypris. In our initial outlook for 2024, we expect the top line to increase 15-20% year-over-year as a result of the combined strength of our backlog for Sypris Electronics, increasing orders for our energy products and anticipated new program wins for Sypris Technologies, partially offset by the anticipated 13.4% decline in the commercial vehicle market. We also expect gross profit to increase 25-30%, while gross margins are expected to expand 150 to 200 basis points in 2024 on a more favorable revenue mix, improved operational performance and more favorable foreign exchange rates.”

This press release contains “forward-looking” statements within the meaning of the federal securities laws. Forward-looking statements include our plans and expectations of future financial and operational performance. Each forward-looking statement herein is subject to risks and uncertainties, as detailed in our most recent Form 10-K and Form 10-Q and other SEC filings. Briefly, we currently believe that such risks also include the following: the fees, costs and supply of, or access to, debt, equity capital, or other sources of liquidity; our failure to achieve and maintain profitability on a timely basis by steadily increasing our revenues from profitable contracts with a diversified group of customers, which would cause us to continue to use existing cash resources or require us to sell assets to fund operating losses; risks of foreign operations, including foreign currency exchange rate risk exposure, which could impact our operating results; cost, quality and availability or lead times of raw materials such as steel, component parts (especially electronic components), natural gas or utilities including increased cost relating to inflation; dependence on, retention or recruitment of key employees and highly skilled personnel and distribution of our human capital; the cost and availability of full-time accounting personnel with technical accounting knowledge to execute, review and approve all aspects of the financial statement close and reporting process; the cost, quality, timeliness, efficiency and yield of our operations and capital investments, including the impact of inflation, tariffs, product recalls or related liabilities, employee training, working capital, production schedules, cycle times, scrap rates, injuries, wages, overtime costs, freight or expediting costs; volatility of our customers’ forecasts and our contractual obligations to meet current scheduling demands and production levels, which may negatively impact our operational capacity and our effectiveness to integrate new customers or suppliers, and in turn cause increases in our inventory and working capital levels; our failure to successfully complete final contract negotiations with regard to our announced contract “orders”, “wins” or “awards”; significant delays or reductions due to a prolonged continuing resolution or U.S. government shutdown reducing the spending on products and services that Sypris Electronics provides; adverse impacts of new technologies or other competitive pressures which increase our costs or erode our margins; breakdowns, relocations or major repairs of machinery and equipment, especially in our Toluca Plant; the termination or non-renewal of existing contracts by customers; the costs and supply of insurance on acceptable terms and with adequate coverage; the costs of compliance with our auditing, regulatory or contractual obligations; pension valuation, health care or other benefit costs; our reliance on revenues from customers in the oil and gas and automotive markets, with increasing consumer pressure for reductions in environmental impacts attributed to greenhouse gas emissions and increased vehicle fuel economy; our failure to successfully win new business or develop new or improved products or new markets for our products; war, geopolitical conflict, terrorism, political uncertainty, or disruptions resulting from the Russia-Ukraine war or the Israel and Gaza conflict, including arising out of international sanctions, foreign currency fluctuations and other economic impacts; our reliance on a few key customers, third party vendors and sub-suppliers; inventory valuation risks including excessive or obsolescent valuations or price erosions of raw materials or component parts on hand or other potential impairments, non-recoverability or write-offs of assets or deferred costs; disputes or litigation involving governmental, supplier, customer, employee, creditor, stockholder, product liability, warranty or environmental claims; failure to adequately insure or to identify product liability, environmental or other insurable risks; unanticipated or uninsured product liability claims, disasters, public health crises, losses or business risks; labor relations; strikes; union negotiations; costs associated with environmental claims relating to properties previously owned; our inability to patent or otherwise protect our inventions or other intellectual property rights from potential competitors or fully exploit such rights which could materially affect our ability to compete in our chosen markets; changes in licenses, security clearances, or other legal rights to operate, manage our work force or import and export as needed; cyber security threats and disruptions, including ransomware attacks on our systems and the systems of third-party vendors and other parties with which we conduct business, all of which may become more pronounced in the event of geopolitical conflicts and other uncertainties, such as the conflict in Ukraine; our ability to maintain compliance with the Nasdaq listing standards minimum closing bid price; risks related to owning our common stock, including increased volatility; possible public policy response to a public health emergency, including U. S or foreign government legislation or restrictions that may impact our operations or supply chain; or unknown risks and uncertainties. We undertake no obligation to update our forward-looking statements, except as may be required by law.
