"Our full-year results represent record achievements for the company in terms of net sales, adjusted EBITDA and EBITDA margin.

Net Sales Results

Consolidated net sales for the fourth quarter 2023 totaled $311.4 million, a 7.0% increase compared to $291.0 million in the fourth quarter of 2022. Consolidated net sales for the full year 2023 totaled $1,243.6 million, a 13.9% increase compared to $1,092.2 million in 2022. The components of the consolidated net sales change were as follows:

	Three Months Ended December 31,	Twelve Months Ended December 31,
	2023 vs. 2022	2023 vs. 2022
Price	5.9%	8.7%
Volume	(0.5)%	4.9%
Organic growth	5.4%	13.6%
Foreign currency	1.6%	0.3%
Total growth	7.0%	13.9%

Organic Sales

Organic sales, which excludes the effects of foreign currency, grew in both the fourth quarter and full year 2023 compared to 2022. This growth was driven by price realization across all regions and by volume growth in equipment sales, particularly in the Americas. At December 31, 2023, the Company's backlog was approximately $186 million, a reduction of $28 million in the fourth quarter and $140 million for the full year.

	Three Months Ended December 31, 2023								Twelve Months Ended December 31, 2023
	Americas		EMEA		APAC		Total		Americas		EMEA		APAC		Total
Organic net sales growth	7.3	%	(0.6	)%	9.6	%	5.4	%	18.9	%	2.6	%	8.6	%	13.6	%

Americas: The 7.3% growth in the Americas during the fourth quarter resulted from price realization in North America partially offset by volume declines. The 18.9% growth during the full year was driven equally by price realization and increased volume across all geographies.

EMEA: The 0.6% decline in EMEA during the fourth quarter was driven by volume declines in equipment sales partially offset by growth in parts and consumables and service. The 2.6% increase during the full year was propelled by price realization in all product categories, though EMEA volumes were impacted by weaker-than-expected market conditions.

APAC: The 9.6% increase in APAC during the fourth quarter and 8.6% increase during the full year were driven by price realization in Australia and volume increases in Australia and China.

Operating Results

Gross profit margin increased to 42.0% in the fourth quarter, a 240-basis-point improvement from 2022. Adjusted gross profit margin increased to 42.2% in the fourth quarter of 2023, a 250-basis-point improvement from 2022. For the full year 2023, gross profit margin increased to 42.4% compared to 38.5% in 2022. Adjusted gross profit margin increased to 42.5% for the full year 2023, a 390-basis-point improvement compared to 2022. The increase in both periods was driven primarily by price realization, but also cost-out activities and plant productivity, which offset inflation in the year.

In the fourth quarter of 2023, selling and administrative ("S&A") expense as a percentage of sales increased to 30.7%, up from 27.2% in 2022. Adjusted S&A expense as a percentage of sales for the fourth quarter 2023 increased to 29.9%, up from 27.0% in 2022. Full-year S&A expense as a percentage of sales increased to 28.4% in 2023, compared to 28.0% in 2022. Adjusted S&A expense as a percentage of sales increased to 28.0% in 2023, compared to 27.9% in 2022. Rate increases in both periods were primarily attributed to higher variable costs linked to improved operating performance as well as strategic investments to deliver future growth.

Adjusted EBITDA was $41.5 million in the fourth quarter of 2023, down slightly compared to $41.7 million in 2022. Adjusted EBITDA margin for the fourth quarter 2023 was 13.3%, a 100-basis-point decline from 2022. The decline was primarily driven by higher variable costs linked to improved operating performance, strategic growth investments within S&A, and elevated research and development (R&D) expense due to timing of project spend.

Adjusted EBITDA was $192.9 million for the full year 2023, compared to $133.7 million in the prior-year period. The improvement in adjusted EBITDA was primarily due to strong sales growth, driven by both volume and price, and gross margin expansion. Adjusted EBITDA margin was 15.5% in 2023, a 330-basis-point increase over the prior-year period benefiting from operating leverage created by sales growth.

Net income was $31.0 million in the fourth quarter of 2023, a $7.2 million increase compared to the fourth quarter of 2022. The increase was primarily driven by a lower effective tax rate due to a discrete nonrecurring and noncash item. Net income for the full year 2023 was $109.5 million, an increase of $43.2 million compared to 2022. The increase was primarily driven by favorable operating results and a lower tax rate discussed above partly offset by higher interest expense.

Cash Flow, Capital Allocation and Liquidity

Cash generated from operations for the full year 2023 totaled $188.4 million, a $213.5 million increase compared to 2022. The increase was driven by strong operating performance and moderating investments in working capital. The Company converted 150% of net income to free cash flow in 2023.

Liquidity remained strong with a balance of $117.1 million in cash and cash equivalents as of the end of 2023 and $336.8 million of unused borrowing capacity on the Company's revolving credit facility.

The Company continues to allocate capital with a disciplined approach and consistent priorities, which include making strategic investments in our business to drive long-term profitable growth, returning cash to shareholders through dividends and share repurchases, and managing within our debt leverage goals. The Company invested $22.8 million in capital expenditures and reduced outstanding debt by $100.0 million in 2023. The Company returned $41.8 million to shareholders through a combination of $20.1 million in dividends and repurchasing 290,920 shares for $21.7 million.

Guidance

The Company is introducing full-year 2024 guidance.

"Building on the momentum of a record 2023, our focus in 2024 is on rigorous execution in the first year of our new enterprise growth strategy, continuing to meaningfully reduce backlog, allocating capital in line with our stated capital priorities, and actively pursuing accretive acquisitions aligned to our M&A strategy," said Huml.

For the full year 2024, the Company is targeting organic net sales growth between 2% and 4% split equally between price and volume growth. The year-over-year growth reflects an expected reduction in backlog between $80 and $100 million for the full year 2024 compared to $140 million in 2023. The Company expects continued strong price realization and cost-out activities to favorably impact gross margins and will remain disciplined in spending, focusing on areas that position it for growth and enhanced operating efficiencies.
