As previously disclosed in our Form 8-K, filed on October 27, 2022, we entered into a definitive merger agreement (the “Merger Agreement”) to be acquired by Regal Rexnord Corporation (“Parent”), under which Altra stockholders will receive $62.00 in cash for each share of Altra common stock held by such stockholders, other than (i) shares owned by the Company, any subsidiary of the Company, Parent, Aspen Sub, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent, or any other subsidiary of Parent, (ii) shares owned by stockholders of the Company who have validly exercised their statutory rights of appraisal under the Delaware General Corporation Law and (iii) shares that are Company Restricted Shares (as defined in the Merger Agreement). As announced in our Form 8-K, filed on January 18, 2023, the merger agreement was approved by our shareholders. The transaction is expected to close in the first half of 2023, subject to customary closing conditions, including receipt of regulatory approvals.

 

Management Comments

 

“Altra delivered solid fourth quarter results as our strategy to align the business with attractive secular trends and drive operational excellence yielded strong revenue performance and gross margin expansion even in the face of a challenging market environment,” said Carl Christenson, Altra’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “Q4 sales of $469.4 million were essentially flat with the prior year while Organic Sales* were up 2.3% compared to the same period last year. Included in the Q4 2021 net sales are revenues of approximately $38.5 million related to the Jacobs Vehicle Systems business that was divested by the Company on April 8, 2022. On a full year basis, 2022 was in line with 2021 sales, which included over $190 million from the now divested JVS business, and we achieved our 3% to 5% Organic Growth* goal for the year.

 


 

 

“We once again did an excellent job capitalizing on several healthy end market trends, notably in factory automation and IoT where we continued to benefit from strong demand for Altra’s high-value automation products. Gross margin improved approximately 280 bps in the quarter, reflecting the benefits of our pricing actions and stronger visibility into supplier cost volatility, which was a headwind for us this time last year.

 

“Our strategy to position Altra as a high-value technology leader across attractive industrial markets continues to support a resilient performance at both the top and bottom lines. We are proud of the Altra team for their ongoing commitment to delivering excellent results for all of our stakeholders.”

*Discussion of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The non-GAAP financial measures used in this release are utilized by management in comparing our operating performance on a consistent basis. We believe that these financial measures are appropriate to enhance the overall understanding of our underlying operating performance trends compared to historical and prospective periods and our peers. We believe that these measures provide important supplemental information to management and investors regarding financial and business trends relating to the Company's financial condition and results of operations as well as insight into the compliance with our debt covenants. Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, financial information calculated in accordance with GAAP. Investors are encouraged to review the reconciliation of these non-GAAP measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures. Our industry peers may provide similar supplemental non-GAAP information with respect to one or more of these measures, although they may not use the same or comparable terminology and may not make identical adjustments. A reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures presented above to our GAAP results has been provided in the financial tables included in this press release.

Organic Sales and Organic Sales Growth

Organic Sales in this release are net sales excluding the impact of foreign currency translation and acquisitions. Organic Sales can be expressed as a dollar amount or a percentage rate when describing Organic Sales Growth.

Non-GAAP Net Income, Non-GAAP Net Income Margin, Non-GAAP Income From Operations, Non-GAAP Diluted Earnings Per Share and Non-GAAP Operating Income Margin

 

Non-GAAP Net Income, Non-GAAP Net Income Margin, Non-GAAP Income From Operations and Non-GAAP Diluted Earnings Per Share exclude, as applicable to the particular period, acquisition related

 


 

amortization expense, acquisition related expense, acquisition related stock compensation expense, restructuring and consolidation costs, non-cash amortization of interest rate swap expense, non-cash interest rate swap settlement fee, customer accommodations and other income or charges that management does not consider to be directly related to the Company’s core operating performance. Non-GAAP Net Income Margin is calculated by dividing Non-GAAP Net Income by GAAP Net Sales. Non-GAAP Diluted Earnings Per Share is calculated by dividing Non-GAAP Net Income by GAAP weighted average shares outstanding (diluted). Non-GAAP Operating Income Margin is calculated by dividing Non-GAAP Income From Operations by GAAP Net Sales.

 

Non-GAAP Gross Profit and Non-GAAP Gross Profit Margin

 

Non-GAAP gross profit excludes amortization of inventory fair value adjustment and certain consolidation costs. Non-GAAP gross profit margin is calculated by dividing Non-GAAP gross profit by GAAP Net Sales.

 

Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA
