Materion Corporation (NYSE: MTRN) today reported first quarter financial results and provided second quarter and full year 2021 earnings guidance.
First Quarter 2021 Highlights
“I am pleased with our start to 2021, delivering a very strong quarter as we continue to manage through the pandemic. Our team is motivated and energized to serve our customers and return to pre-pandemic levels of performance, as demonstrated by our first quarter results,” said Jugal Vijayvargiya, President and Chief Executive Officer.
Mr. Vijayvargiya continued, “Many of our end markets are expanding, our Optics Balzers acquisition is performing well, and our organic investments are contributing, resulting in strong top line growth expectations for the full year. We continue to focus on building a robust pipeline of opportunities that will create value for our shareholders in the near, medium and longer term.”
FIRST QUARTER 2021 RESULTS
Net sales for the first quarter of 2021 were $354.4 million, compared to $277.9 million in the prior year period. Value-added sales were a quarterly record of $198.6 million, up 29% from the prior year quarter. Strong performance across several key end markets, including semiconductor, automotive and industrial drove the value-added sales growth and more than offset weakness in the energy end market and reduced sales related to the closure of our LAC business. In addition, sales were aided by a large order in the defense market which was expected in the second quarter.
Operating profit for the first quarter was $19.7 million, and net income was $16.8 million, or $0.81 per diluted share, compared to an operating loss of $5.6 million and a net loss of $3.9 million in the prior year period. Excluding special items, adjusted EBIT was $21.4 million in the first quarter, an increase of $11.5 million versus the prior-year period. Improved sales performance, favorable mix, and improved operating performance drove the increase.
Adjusted net income was $16.9 million, or $0.82 per diluted share, an increase of 111% compared to $0.39 per share in the prior year period.
OUTLOOK
While a fair amount of uncertainty still exists in the overall economy, we see strength in our organic pipeline and good underlying demand across many of our end markets, in particular semiconductor, automotive, and industrial. Based on current demand levels, we expect adjusted earnings per diluted share in the second quarter to be in the range of $0.72 to $0.76 per share, an increase of 68% from the second quarter of 2020 at the midpoint.
For the full year, we expect adjusted earnings per diluted share to be in the range of $3.00 to $3.30 per share, an increase of 55% from the prior year, at the midpoint.
ADJUSTED EARNINGS GUIDANCE
It is not possible for the Company to identify the amount or significance of future adjustments associated with potential insurance and litigation claims, legacy environmental costs, acquisition and integration costs, certain income tax items, or other non-routine costs that the Company adjusts in the presentation of adjusted earnings guidance. These items are dependent on future events that are not reasonably estimable at this time. Accordingly, the Company is unable to reconcile without unreasonable effort the forecasted range of adjusted earnings guidance for the full year to a comparable GAAP range. However, items excluded from the Company's adjusted earnings guidance include the historical adjustments noted in Attachments 4 and 5 to this press release.

*Prior period has been adjusted to reflect the change in inventory method, as described in the Company's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended April 2, 2021.
The cost of gold, silver, platinum, palladium, copper, ruthenium, iridium, rhodium, rhenium, and osmium is passed through to customers and, therefore, the trends and comparisons of net sales are affected by movements in the market price of these metals. Internally, management also reviews net sales on a value-added basis. Value-added sales is a non-GAAP financial measure that deducts the value of the pass-through metals sold from net sales. Value-added sales allows management to assess the impact of differences in net sales between periods or segments and analyze the resulting margins and profitability without the distortion of the movements in pass-through metal prices. The dollar amount of gross margin and operating profit is not affected by the value-added sales calculation. During the first quarter of 2021, the Company added ruthenium, iridium, rhodium, rhenium, and osmium to its definition of value-added sales as the costs of these materials are treated as pass-through. Prior period value-added sales amounts have been recast to reflect this change. The Company sells other metals and materials that are not considered direct pass throughs, and these costs are not deducted from net sales to calculate value-added sales.
The Company’s pricing policy is to pass the cost of these metals on to customers in order to mitigate the impact of price volatility on the Company’s results from operations. Value-added information is being presented since changes in metal prices may not directly impact profitability. It is the Company’s intent to allow users of the financial statements to review sales with and without the impact of the pass-through metals.

In addition to presenting financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), this earnings release contains financial measures, including operating profit, segment operating profit, earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT), net income, and earnings per share, on a non-GAAP basis. As detailed in the above reconciliation and Attachment 4, we have adjusted the results for certain special items such as non-cash impairment charges, non-cash inventory adjustments, cost reduction initiatives (i.e., severance), COVID-19 related costs, merger and acquisition costs, and certain discrete income tax items from the applicable GAAP financial measure. Internally, management reviews the results of operations without the impact of these costs in order to assess the profitability from ongoing activities. We are providing this information because we believe it will assist investors in analyzing our financial results and, when viewed in conjunction with the GAAP results, provide a more comprehensive understanding of the factors and trends affecting our operations.
