“We are pleased with our fourth quarter results, which contributed to a record-setting year for RBC,” said Dr. Michael J. Hartnett, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “Our net sales exceeded our expectations in the quarter as we continued to experience strong growth in both our Industrial and Aerospace/Defense segments. As we look ahead to fiscal 2024, our focus remains on delivering sustainable growth as we continue to navigate through a dynamic macro environment.”
Fourth Quarter Results
Net sales for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023 were $394.4 million, an increase of 9.9% from $358.9 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022. Net sales for our Industrial segment increased 7.4%, while net sales for our Aerospace/Defense segment increased 16.0%. Gross margin for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023 was $166.5 million compared to $137.5 million for the same period last year.
SG&A for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023 was $59.6 million, an increase of $5.1 million from $54.5 million for the same period last year. As a percentage of net sales, SG&A was 15.1% for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023 compared to 15.2% for the same period last year.
Other operating expenses for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023 totaled $20.7 million compared to $23.7 million for the same period last year. For the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023, other operating expenses included $17.7 million of amortization of intangible assets, $2.5 million of restructuring costs associated with our South Carolina operations, and $0.5 million of other items. For the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022, other operating expenses included $17.2 million of amortization of intangible assets, $5.7 million of costs associated with the Dodge acquisition, and $0.8 million of other items.
Operating income for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023 was $86.1 million compared to $59.3 million for the same period last year. Excluding approximately $2.6 million of restructuring costs associated with our South Carolina operations offset by a $0.1 million acquisition-related costs adjustment, adjusted operating income for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023 was $88.6 million; excluding approximately $12.5 million of acquisition costs associated with the Dodge acquisition, adjusted operating income for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022 was $71.9 million. Adjusted operating income as a percentage of net sales was 22.5% for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023 compared to 20.0% for the same period last year.

The fiscal 2023 fourth quarter income tax expense included $0.4 million of tax benefits from stock-based compensation and $1.5 million of other items. Income tax expense for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022 included $0.1 million of tax benefits from stock-based compensation and $0.6 million of discrete tax benefit primarily due to a decrease in the reserves for unrecognized tax positions resulting from the expiration of a statute of limitations. The tax rate for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022 was negatively impacted by the inclusion of certain pre-tax acquisition-related charges that were not deductible for tax purposes.
Net income for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023 was $49.2 million compared to $31.5 million for the same period last year. On an adjusted basis, net income was $67.7 million for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023 compared to $61.7 million for the same period last year.

Backlog as of April 1, 2023 was $663.8 million compared to $603.1 million as of April 2, 2022 and $613.6 million as of December 31, 2022.
Pension Settlement
On March 30, 2023, the Company was able to reduce its liability with the Roller Bearing Company of America, Inc. Union Pension Plan by executing a non-participating Single Group Premium Annuity Contract with American United Life Insurance Company (“AUL”), a OneAmerica Company. The Contract transfers the burden of making future benefit payments for transferring annuitants to AUL in return for a fixed one-time premium. The annuitants were primarily comprised of retirees and vested participants who had been terminated. As a result of this pension settlement, pension plan assets decreased by $15.6 million, the projected benefit obligation decreased by $15.6 million, and the Company recognized a settlement loss of $4.3 million, included in other non-operating expense/(income). The Company ended the year with a $4.9 million over-funded status on the pension plan.
Outlook for the First Quarter Fiscal 2024
The Company expects net sales to be approximately $380.0 million to $390.0 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2024, compared to $354.1 million last year, a growth rate of 7.3% to 10.1%.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In addition to disclosing results of operations that are determined in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), this press release also discloses non-GAAP results of operations that exclude certain items. These non-GAAP measures adjust for items that management believes are unusual, as well as other non-cash items including but not limited to depreciation, amortization, and equity-based incentive compensation. Management believes that the presentation of these non-GAAP measures provides useful information to investors regarding the Company’s results of operations, as these non-GAAP measures allow investors to better evaluate ongoing business performance. Investors should consider non-GAAP measures in addition to, not as a substitute for, financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. A reconciliation of the non-GAAP measures disclosed in this press release with the most comparable GAAP measures are included in the financial table attached to this press release.
Adjusted Gross Margin and Adjusted Operating Income Adjusted gross margin excludes the impact of acquisition-related fair value adjustments to inventory, and inventory rationalization costs associated with restructuring and consolidation efforts. Adjusted operating income excludes acquisition expenses (including the impact of acquisition-related fair value adjustments in connection with purchase), restructuring and other similar charges, gains or losses on extinguishment of debt, and other non-operational, non-cash or non-recurring losses. We believe that adjusted operating income is useful in assessing our financial performance by excluding items that are not indicative of our core operating performance or that may obscure trends useful in evaluating our continuing results of operations.
Adjusted Net Income Attributable to Common Stockholders and Adjusted Earnings Per Share Attributable to Common Stockholders Adjusted net income attributable to common stockholders and adjusted earnings per share attributable to common stockholders (calculated on a diluted basis) exclude non-cash expenses for amortization related to acquired intangible assets, stock-based compensation, amortization of deferred finance fees, acquisition expenses (including the impact of acquisition-related fair value adjustments in connection with purchase), restructuring and other similar charges, gains or losses on divestitures, discontinued operations, gains or losses on extinguishment of debt, and other non-operational, non-cash or non-recurring losses, net of their income tax impact. We believe that adjusted net income and adjusted earnings per share are useful in assessing our financial performance by excluding items that are not indicative of our core operating performance or that may obscure trends useful in evaluating our continuing results of operations.
Adjusted EBITDA We use the term “Adjusted EBITDA” to describe net income adjusted for the items summarized in the “Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP Financial Measures” table below. Adjusted EBITDA is intended to show our unleveraged, pre-tax operating results and therefore reflects our financial performance based on operational factors, excluding non-operational, non-cash or non-recurring losses or gains. In view of our debt level, it is also provided to aid investors in understanding our compliance with our debt covenants. Management and various investors use the ratio of total debt less cash to Adjusted EBITDA, or "net debt leverage," as a measure of our financial strength and ability to incur incremental indebtedness when making investment decisions and evaluating us against peers. Lastly, management and various investors use the ratio of the change in Adjusted EBITDA divided by the change in net sales (referred to as “incremental margin” in the case of an increase in net sales or “decremental margin” in the case of a decrease in net sales) as an additional measure of our financial performance and utilize it when making investment decisions and evaluating us against peers.
Adjusted EBITDA is not a presentation made in accordance with GAAP, and our definition of Adjusted EBITDA may vary from the definition used by others in our industry. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to net income, income from operations, or any other performance measures derived in accordance with GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA has important limitations as an analytical tool, and you should not consider it in isolation, or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. For example, Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect: (a) our capital expenditures, future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments; (b) changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs; (c) the significant interest expenses, or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments, on our debt; (d) tax payments that represent a reduction in cash available to us; (e) any cash requirements for the assets being depreciated and amortized that may have to be replaced in the future; or (f) the impact of earnings or charges resulting from matters that we and the lenders under our credit agreement may not consider indicative of our ongoing operations. In particular, our definition of Adjusted EBITDA adds back certain non-cash, non-operating or non-recurring charges that are deducted in calculating net income, even though these are expenses that may recur or vary greatly, are difficult to predict, and can represent the effect of long-term strategies as opposed to short-term results. In addition, certain of these expenses can represent the reduction of cash that could be used for other corporate purposes. Further, although not included in the calculation of Adjusted EBITDA below, the measure may at times (i) include estimated cost savings and operating synergies related to operational changes ranging from acquisitions to dispositions to restructurings and/or (ii) exclude one-time transition expenditures that we anticipate we will need to incur to realize cost savings before such savings have occurred.
