Luxfer Holdings PLC (NYSE:LXFR), ("Luxfer" or the "Company"), a global manufacturer of highly-engineered industrial materials, today announced financial results for the second quarter, ending June 27, 2021.

Consolidated net sales increased 29.2% to $99.0 million from $76.6 million, including a favorable foreign currency benefit of $4.5 million, or 5.9%. The robust sales growth also included $8.0 million, or 10.4%, from the 2021 SCI acquisition. The sales volume increase was broad-based due to recovery in most end markets, with particular strength in magnesium products.

GAAP net income increased to $11.9 million, or $0.42 per diluted share, compared to $4.6 million, or $0.16 per diluted share one year ago. Results include $0.9 million in restructuring and other charges and a one-time benefit from UK tax rate change, compared to restructuring and other charges of $0.8 million in the prior year period.

Adjusted net income increased 96.2% to $10.2 million from $5.2 million. Adjusted diluted earnings per share increased 89.5% to $0.36 from $0.19. Adjusted EBITDA increased 63.2% to $17.3 million. Adjusted EBITDA margin of 17.5% expanded 370 basis points.

"We delivered another strong quarter amid the continued global economic recovery, benefitting from the continued execution of our strategic initiatives and the acquisition of SCI," said Alok Maskara, Luxfer's Chief Executive Officer. "During the quarter, we saw strength in our magnesium products, as well as a rebound in our general industrial businesses. Robust free cash flow and a low net leverage position provided us with the financial flexibility to strategically invest in innovation and future growth opportunities, while increasing shareholder returns through dividend and share buybacks."

Segment Results (all comparisons year-over-year unless otherwise noted; results exclude aluminum products discontinued operations)

Elektron Segment

Net sales of $52.5 million increased 34.3% including a $1.7 million, or 4.3%, benefit from foreign currency.
Adjusted EBITDA of $12.0 million increased 126% and margin expanded 930 basis points to 22.9% from 13.6%.

Gas Cylinders Segment

Net sales of $46.5 million increased 24.0% including a $2.8 million, or 7.5%, benefit from foreign currency, and an $8.0 million, or 21.3%, contribution from the acquisition of SCI.
Adjusted EBITDA of $5.3 million remained flat and EBITDA margin decreased compared to the prior year due to lower core sales and impact of SCI acquisition, partially offset by cost reductions.

Capital Resources and Liquidity

Free cash flow of $7.0 million for the quarter, compared to an inflow of $12.1 million in the prior year. Resulting year to date free cash flow of $20.8 million compares favorably to $5.1 million from the first half of prior year. During the quarter, the Company paid $3.4 million in ordinary dividends, or $0.125 per share, and repurchased shares totaling $0.9 million related to the Company's previously announced share buyback program. Given the strong cash flow, the Company maintains normal levels of funding for growth and productivity initiatives. At quarter end, net debt totaled $39.5 million, resulting in a net debt to EBITDA ratio of 0.6x.

2021 Guidance

"We are narrowing our previously announced guidance of Adjusted EPS to the range of $1.15 to $1.30, including an estimated $0.10 dilutive impact of the SCI acquisition in the second half of the year. We will remain focused on retaining a strong balance sheet, providing us the financial flexibility to continue investing in growth, returning cash to shareholders and exploring acquisition opportunities to deliver long-term profitable growth and shareholder value creation," added Maskara.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Luxfer Holdings PLC prepares its financial statements using U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP). When a company discloses material information containing non-GAAP financial measures, SEC regulations require that the disclosure include a presentation of the most directly comparable GAAP measure and a reconciliation of the GAAP and non-GAAP financial measures. Management's inclusion of non-GAAP financial measures in this release is intended to supplement, not replace, the presentation of the financial results in accordance with GAAP. Luxfer management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures, when considered together with the GAAP financial measures, provide information that is useful to investors in understanding period-over-period operating results separate and apart from items that may, or could, have a disproportionately positive or negative impact on results in any period. Management also believes that these non-GAAP financial measures enhance the ability of investors to analyze the Company's business trends and understand the Company's performance. In addition, management may utilize non-GAAP financial measures as a guide in the Company's forecasting, budgeting and long-term planning process. Non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures presented in accordance with GAAP.

Forward-Looking Statements

This release contains certain forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements. Examples of such forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to: (i) statements regarding the Company's results of operations and financial condition; (ii) statements of plans, objectives or goals of the Company or its management, including those related to financing, products or services; (iii) statements of future economic performance; and (iv) statements of assumptions underlying such statements. Words such as "believes," "anticipates," "expects," "intends," "forecasts," and "plans," and similar expressions, are intended to identify forward-looking statements but are not the exclusive means of identifying such statements. By their very nature, forward-looking statements involve inherent risks and uncertainties, both general and specific, and risks exist that the predictions, forecasts, projections and other forward-looking statements will not be achieved. The Company cautions that several important factors could cause actual results to differ materially from the plans, objectives, expectations, estimates and intentions expressed in such forward-looking statements. These factors include, but are not limited to: (i) lower than expected future sales; (ii) increasing competitive industry pressures; (iii) general economic conditions or conditions affecting demand for the products and services it offers, both domestically and internationally, including as a result of post-Brexit regulation, being less favorable than expected; (iv) worldwide economic and business conditions and conditions in the industries in which it operates; (v) fluctuations in the cost of raw materials, utilities and other inputs; (vi) currency fluctuations and hedging risks; (vii) its ability to protect its intellectual property; (viii) the significant amount of indebtedness it has incurred and may incur and the obligations to service such indebtedness and to comply with the covenants contained therein; and (ix) risks related to the impact of the global COVID-19 pandemic, such as the scope and duration of the outbreak, government actions and restrictive measures implemented in response, supply chain disruptions and other impacts to the business, and the Company's ability to execute business continuity plans, as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. The Company cautions that the foregoing list of important factors is not exhaustive. These factors are more fully discussed in the sections entitled "Forward-Looking Statements" and "Risk Factors" in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020, which was filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on March 2, 2021.
