Third quarter sales were $51.9 million, down 1% from sales of $52.3 million in the same quarter last year. Both the 2014 and 2013 third quarter sales results exclude contributions from the Company’s former AMK Technical Services business, which was sold effective October 1, 2014, and is now classified under discontinued operations. Third quarter gross margin was 29% versus 31% in last year’s third quarter.

Operating income was $3.4 million versus $5.2 million in the third quarter of 2013. DMC reported other income of $472,000 versus other expense of $247,000 in the 2013 third quarter. Other income in this year’s third quarter was primarily attributable to realized and unrealized foreign currency exchange gains. Offsetting these gains was a $716,000 non-cash valuation allowance charge in the Company’s tax provision, which was taken against certain deferred tax assets associated with the Company’s German explosion cladding operations.

Third quarter adjusted EBITDA was $7.7 million versus $8.8 million in the third quarter last year. Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP (generally accepted accounting principles) financial measure used by management to measure operating performance. See additional information about adjusted EBITDA at the end of this news release, as well as a reconciliation of adjusted EBITDA to GAAP measures.

Sales at DMC’s Oilfield Products segment, also referred to as DynaEnergetics, were $28.3 million, up 29% from $21.9 million in last year’s third quarter. The increase reflects strong customer demand across most of DynaEnergetics’ product portfolio, particularly the DynaSelect switch detonator system. Operating income increased to $3.8 million from $1.6 million in last year’s third quarter, while adjusted EBITDA was $5.5 million versus $3.1 million in the comparable prior-year quarter.

NobelClad reported sales of $23.6 million, down 22% from $30.4 million in the third quarter last year. The decline is attributable to continued soft capital spending in NobelClad’s global industrial end markets. Operating income was $1.9 million versus $5.6 million in the comparable year-ago quarter, while adjusted EBITDA was $3.6 million versus $7.1 million in last year’s third quarter. NobelClad ended the quarter with an order backlog of $42.6 million, up from $40.1 million, at the end of this year’s second quarter.

Consolidated sales for the nine-month period were $150.6 million, down 1% from sales of $152.7 million in the same period last year. Gross margin was 30%, consistent with the comparable nine-month period a year ago. Operating income improved to $10.2 million from $9.9 million during last year’s nine-month period. The 2013 nine-month period included $3.0 million of non-recurring expenses associated with management retirements.

Nine-month income from continuing operations was $7.1 million, or $0.51 per diluted share, versus net income of $6.8 million, or $0.49 per diluted share, in the comparable year-ago period. Net income and the tax provision for the 2014 nine-month period included the previously mentioned $716,000 non-cash valuation allowance charge, while the comparable period of 2013 reflected a net tax benefit of $484,000.

“On October 23, we signed an agreement to purchase a $14 million, state-of-the-art manufacturing facility in the Siegerland region of Germany. The facility, which is approximately six-years old, will significantly enhance NobelClad’s manufacturing capabilities and its ability to serve customers throughout Europe, the Middle East and Africa. We expect the plant will be open by next year’s second quarter.

“NobelClad’s European management has commenced discussions with local staff representatives and social partners to develop and implement a European consolidation plan, which we believe will generate annual after-tax savings of approximately $2 million. Restructuring charges, including social costs, equipment relocation, and other exit expenses are expected to range from $3.0 million to $5.0 million.”

The Company’s blended effective tax rate for fiscal 2014 is expected to range from 30% to 32%, up from a previously expected range of 29% to 30%. The higher range relates to the full-year impact of the non-cash valuation allowance charge initially recorded during the third quarter. Kuta said the Company expects that NobelClad’s European consolidation program should allow the Company to recapture these deferred tax benefits in the future.

For the fourth quarter, management anticipates sales will be up 4% to 6% versus the $49.3 million reported in last year’s fourth quarter (excluding AMK). Fourth quarter gross margin is expected to be in a range of 28% to 29% versus the 26% reported in last year’s fourth quarter. The after-tax gain on the sale of AMK is expected to be $850,000 to $950,000 and will be realized in the fourth quarter. In addition, approximately $1.5 million to $3.0 million of the NobelClad European restructuring expense is expected to be recorded in the quarter.

Management will hold a conference call to discuss these results today at 5:00 p.m. Eastern (3:00 p.m. Mountain). Investors are invited to listen to the call live via the Internet at www.dmcglobal.com, or by dialing 877-407-0778 (201-689-8565 for international callers). No passcode is necessary.

Non-GAAP results are presented only as a supplement to the financial statements based on U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). The non-GAAP financial information is provided to enhance the reader's understanding of DMC’s financial performance, but no non-GAAP measure should be considered in isolation or as a substitute for financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. Reconciliations of the most directly comparable GAAP measures to non-GAAP measures are provided within the schedules attached to this release.

EBITDA is defined as net income plus or minus net interest plus taxes, depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA excludes from EBITDA stock-based compensation and, when appropriate, other items that management does not utilize in assessing DMC’s operating performance (as further described in the attached financial schedules). None of these non-GAAP financial measures are recognized terms under GAAP and do not purport to be an alternative to net income as an indicator of operating performance or any other GAAP measure.

Management uses these non-GAAP measures in its operational and financial decision-making, believing that it is useful to eliminate certain items in order to focus on what it deems to be a more reliable indicator of ongoing operating performance. As a result, internal management reports used during monthly operating reviews feature the adjusted EBITDA. In addition, during 2014 DMC management incentive awards will be based, in part, on the amount of adjusted EBITDA achieved during the year. Management also believes that investors may find non-GAAP financial measures useful for the same reasons, although investors are cautioned that non-GAAP financial measures are not a substitute for GAAP disclosures. EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA are also used by research analysts, investment bankers and lenders to assess operating performance. For example, a measure similar to EBITDA is required by the lenders under DMC’s credit facility.

Because not all companies use identical calculations, DMC’s presentation of non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies. However, these measures can still be useful in evaluating the company’s performance against its peer companies because management believes the measures provide users with valuable insight into key components of GAAP financial disclosures. For example, a company with greater GAAP net income may not be as appealing to investors if its net income is more heavily comprised of gains on asset sales. Likewise, eliminating the effects of interest income and expense moderates the impact of a company's capital structure on its performance.

All of the items included in the reconciliation from net income to EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA are either (i) non-cash items (e.g., depreciation, amortization of purchased intangibles and stock-based compensation) or (ii) items that management does not consider to be useful in assessing DMC’s operating performance (e.g., income taxes and gain on sale of assets). In the case of the non-cash items, management believes that investors can better assess the company’s operating performance if the measures are presented without such items because, unlike cash expenses, these adjustments do not affect DMC's ability to generate free cash flow or invest in its business. For example, by adjusting for depreciation and amortization in computing EBITDA, users can compare operating performance without regard to different accounting determinations such as useful life. In the case of the other items, management believes that investors can better assess operating performance if the measures are presented without these items because their financial impact does not reflect ongoing operating performance.

Based in Boulder, Colorado, DMC operates in two sectors: industrial infrastructure and oilfield products and services. The industrial infrastructure sector is served by DMC’s NobelClad business, the world’s largest manufacturer of explosion-welded clad metal plates, which are used to fabricate capital equipment utilized within various process industries and other industrial sectors. The oilfield products and services sector is served by DynaEnergetics, an international developer, manufacturer and marketer of advanced explosive components and systems used to perforate oil and gas wells.
