Immediate Release

Columbus McKinnon Reports Record Gross Margin of 37.5% for First Quarter Fiscal Year 2023
BUFFALO, NY, July 28, 2022 - Columbus McKinnon Corporation (Nasdaq: CMCO), a leading designer, manufacturer and marketer of intelligent motion solutions for material handling, today announced financial results for its fiscal year 2023 first quarter, which ended June 30, 2022. Results include the addition of Garvey Corporation, which was acquired on December 1, 2021.
First Quarter Highlights (compared with prior year period)
Delivered revenue of $220 million, up 6.5% on a constant currency basis
Achieved record gross margin of 37.5% as Columbus McKinnon Business System (CMBS) enabled strong execution
Realized first quarter fiscal 2023 earnings per diluted share of $0.29 compared with a loss of $0.27 in prior-year; adjusted EPS* was $0.69, unchanged from prior-year period
Continued strength in demand with orders up 11% on a constant currency basis driven by 10% growth in North America and 12% growth in EMEA
Maintained strong balance sheet; reduced debt an additional $10 million in quarter
David Wilson, President and CEO of Columbus McKinnon, commented, “We had a strong start to the year with our first quarter results. I am proud of how our team executed to deliver growth and record gross margin while improving the business. The realignment of Columbus McKinnon’s structure is enabling cost synergies and improved collaboration across the organization. In fact, our new regional leadership structure has created greater cross-functional engagement and is unlocking even more potential to deliver results in the face of current supply chain challenges, labor constraints and high inflation. Encouragingly, we continue to see strong demand for our intelligent motion solutions across a breadth of markets. We are also well positioned financially to execute our strategy and further transform Columbus McKinnon into a higher growth, less cyclical enterprise with expanded margins.”
*Adjusted EPS is a non-GAAP measure. See accompanying discussion and reconciliation tables in this release regarding the reconciliation of GAAP financials to non-GAAP measures.

Adjusted earnings per diluted share were $0.69 in the fiscal 2023 first quarter unchanged from the prior-year period. Adjusted EPS excludes amortization of intangible assets related to acquisitions. The Company believes this better represents its inherent earnings power and cash generation capability.
Second Quarter Fiscal 2023 Outlook
Columbus McKinnon expects second quarter fiscal 2023 sales of approximately $230 million to $240 million at current exchange rates, a sequential increase in the mid-to-high single digits.
Mr. Wilson concluded, “We are confident in our ability to deliver our plan as we continue to advance Columbus McKinnon’s transformation. We are executing to meet our commitments and to achieve our goals of $1.5 billion in revenue and 21% adjusted EBITDA margin in fiscal 2027.”

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, including amortization of intangible assets, and also adjusted for 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 with the measures 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. The Company believes that representing adjusted EPS provides a better understanding of its earnings power inclusive of adjusting for the non-cash amortization of intangible assets, reflecting the Company’s strategy to grow through acquisitions as well as organically.

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.
