BUFFALO, NY, January 28, 2021 - Columbus McKinnon Corporation (Nasdaq: CMCO), a leading designer, manufacturer and marketer of intelligent motion control products, technologies and services for material handling, today announced financial results for its fiscal year 2021 third quarter, which ended December 31, 2020.
Third Quarter Highlights
•Evolution of strategy and Columbus McKinnon Business System (CMBS) delivered solid operating results
•Revenue of $166.5 million was up 5.5% compared with the trailing second quarter
•Operating income was $10.4 million with adjusted operating income1 of $11.2 million
•Strong cash generation of $25.0 million provided by operating activities; Free cash flow of $21.9 million2
•Backlog grew to $152.4 million, up 22% over prior-year period and 4% sequentially
•Pivoting to growth with focus on organic initiatives and acquisition pipeline
David Wilson, President and CEO of Columbus McKinnon, commented, “We delivered solid results in adverse conditions with revenue exceeding our expectations. Of note, our ability to generate cash was demonstrated with free cash flow2 of $22 million. We are excited about what the future holds even as we continue to operate in a less than ideal external environment. We are optimistic that growth will accelerate in fiscal 2022 as demand improves and channel partners replenish inventories. Given current macroeconomic forecasts, we expect to return to more normalized revenue levels by this time next year. In the meantime, we are consistently strengthening our earnings power by driving operational excellence with tools such as 80/20. In fact, we have realized $9 million in contributions to operating income from these efforts this fiscal year.”
1 Adjusted operating income is a non-GAAP measure. See the accompanying discussion and reconciliation table in this release regarding adjusted operating income.
2 Free cash flow is a non-GAAP measure defined as cash from operations less capital expenditures. See the accompanying discussion and reconciliation found in the Additional Data table in this release.

He continued, “Even as we have been navigating this complex environment, we are evolving our strategy, now defined as Blueprint for Growth 2.0. The Core Growth Framework we are creating is underpinned by the advancement of CMBS, which develops core competencies and enables us to scale. Our organic growth initiatives, which include improvements in customer experience, new product development, and channel expansion, are centered on our customers’ requirements for continuous improvement in productivity, safety and uptime. We are realizing success with our product launches and believe we are enhancing our competitive position in our markets. We are also actively working our acquisition pipeline and see the potential to expand our reach into growth markets by building on our expertise in intelligent motion for material handling.”

Compared with the prior-year period, lower volume reflects the global economic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. A 0.8% price improvement in the U.S. modestly helped to offset volume declines. Outside the U.S., a $3.0 million, or 3.3%, positive impact from foreign currency translation and price improvement of 1.1% partially offset lower volumes.
Compared with the trailing second quarter, sales improved 5.5% with short cycle sales up 5.6% and project sales up 5.5%.

(1) December 31, 2019 figure excludes Crane Equipment & Service, Inc. (CES) and Stahlhammer Bommern GmbH (STB), each of which were divested on February 28, 2019.
(2) Free cash flow is defined as cash from operations less capital expenditures. Free cash flow is not a measure determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States, commonly known as GAAP, and may not be comparable with the measures as used by other companies. Nevertheless, Columbus McKinnon believes that providing non-GAAP information, such as free cash flow, is important for investors and other readers of the Company’s financial statements.
Components may not add due to rounding.

Adjusted gross profit is defined as gross profit as reported, adjusted for certain items. Adjusted gross profit is not a measure determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States, commonly known as GAAP, and may not be comparable with the measures as used by other companies. Nevertheless, Columbus McKinnon believes that providing non-GAAP information, such as adjusted gross profit, is important for investors and other readers of the Company’s financial statements and assists in understanding the comparison of the current quarter’s and current year's gross profit to the historical periods' gross profit, as well as facilitates a more meaningful comparison of the Company’s gross profit to that of other companies.

Adjusted net income and diluted EPS are defined as net income and diluted EPS as reported, adjusted for certain items and at a normalized tax rate. Adjusted net income and diluted EPS are not measures determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States, commonly known as GAAP, and may not be comparable to the measures as used by other companies. Nevertheless, Columbus McKinnon believes that providing non-GAAP information, such as adjusted net income and diluted EPS, is important for investors and other readers of the Company’s financial statements and assists in understanding the comparison of the current quarter’s and current year's net income and diluted EPS to the historical periods' net income and diluted EPS, as well as facilitates a more meaningful comparison of the Company’s net income and diluted EPS to that of other companies.

Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income before interest expense, income taxes, depreciation, amortization, and other adjustments. Adjusted EBITDA is not a measure determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States, commonly known as GAAP, and may not be comparable with the measures as used by other companies. Nevertheless, Columbus McKinnon believes that providing non-GAAP information, such as adjusted EBITDA, is important for investors and other readers of the Company’s financial statements.
