LCI Industries (NYSE: LCII) which, through its wholly-owned
subsidiary, Lippert Components, Inc. ("Lippert"), supplies a broad
array of highly engineered components for the leading original
equipment manufacturers ("OEMs") in the recreation and
transportation product markets, and the related aftermarkets of
those industries, today reported third quarter 2022 results.
“Our results continue to demonstrate the effectiveness of our
diversification strategy, which has positioned Lippert to maintain
strong performance during a downturn in RV demand. During the third
quarter, we delivered growth in adjacent markets and leveraged our
flexible cost structure to support profitability, as the RV
industry adjusts to softened consumer demand and macroeconomic
uncertainty,” commented Jason Lippert, LCI Industries’ President
and Chief Executive Officer.
“The operational improvements we’ve implemented over the last
several years have enabled us to nimbly balance capacity while
maintaining our product quality, as wholesale RV production is
expected to remain tempered in the near-term. Other key end
markets, including marine, motorhomes, manufactured housing, power
sports, and the RV aftermarket continued to perform well, helping
our overall business more effectively than if it was solely
concentrated in the RV market. We remain confident in the
underlying secular trends fueling popularity in the outdoor
lifestyle and will keep investing in innovation throughout our
portfolio to capture demand for technologically sophisticated
products,” Lippert continued. “With our strong, cohesive culture
guided by our experienced leadership team, we believe we are
well-positioned to manage through a challenging economic
environment to advance our business and drive long-term shareholder
value.”
“The operational strength demonstrated by our teams proved
critical to supporting our performance this quarter. We look
forward to continuing this momentum as we continue to collaborate
with our customers while achieving progress on strategic
priorities,” commented Ryan Smith, Group President – North
America.
Third Quarter 2022 Results
Consolidated net sales for the third quarter of 2022 were $1.1
billion, a decrease of three percent from 2021 third quarter net
sales of $1.2 billion. Net income in the third quarter of 2022 was
$61.4 million, or $2.40 per diluted share, compared to net income
of $63.4 million, or $2.49 per diluted share, in the third quarter
of 2021. EBITDA in the third quarter of 2022 was $119.8 million,
compared to EBITDA of $118.0 million in the third quarter of 2021.
Additional information regarding EBITDA, as well as a
reconciliation of this non-GAAP financial measure to the most
directly comparable GAAP financial measure, is provided in the
"Supplementary Information - Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measures"
section below.
The decrease in year-over-year net sales for the third quarter
of 2022 was primarily driven by decreased North American RV
wholesale shipments, partially offset by price realization,
acquisitions, and an increase in net sales to OEMs in adjacent
industries. Net sales from acquisitions completed in the twelve
months ended September 30, 2022 contributed approximately $39
million in the third quarter of 2022.
The Company's average product content per travel trailer and
fifth-wheel RV for the twelve months ended September 30, 2022,
increased $2,067 to $5,853, compared to $3,786 for the twelve
months ended September 30, 2021. The content increase in towables
was primarily a result of organic growth, including pricing and new
product introductions, market share gains, and acquisitions.
October 2022 Results
October 2022 consolidated net sales were approximately $345
million, down 24 percent from October 2021, demonstrating positive
trends as the Company moves into the last quarter of 2022, a
testament to diversification efforts which are helping to offset
the deceleration experienced in North American RV production.
Income Taxes
The Company's effective tax rate was 23.9 percent for the
quarter ended September 30, 2022, compared to 24.8 percent for the
quarter ended September 30, 2021. The decrease in the effective tax
rate was primarily due to the settlement of uncertain tax
positions, partially offset by a decrease in the cash surrender
value of life insurance.
Balance Sheet and Other Items
At September 30, 2022, the Company's cash and cash equivalents
balance was $23.4 million, compared to $62.9 million at December
31, 2021. The Company used $103.7 million for capital expenditures,
$76.3 million for dividend payments to shareholders, and $55.7
million for acquisitions in the nine months ended September 30,
2022. The Company also made $156.1 million in net repayments under
its revolving credit facility and $65.9 million in repayments under
its shelf loan, term loan, and other borrowings in the nine months
ended September 30, 2022.
The Company's outstanding long-term indebtedness, including
current maturities, was $1.1 billion at September 30, 2022, and the
Company remained in compliance with its debt covenants. The Company
believes its current liquidity is adequate to meet operating needs
for the foreseeable future.

In addition to reporting financial results
in accordance with U.S. GAAP, the Company has provided the non-GAAP
performance measure of EBITDA to illustrate and improve
comparability of its results from period to period. EBITDA is
defined as net income before interest expense, net, provision for
income taxes, depreciation expense, and amortization expense during
the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2022
and 2021. The Company considers this non-GAAP measure in evaluating
and managing the Company's operations and believes that discussion
of results adjusted for these items is meaningful to investors
because it provides a useful analysis of ongoing underlying
operating trends. The measure is not in accordance with, nor is it
a substitute for, GAAP measures, and it may not be comparable to
similarly titled measures used by other companies.
