MILWAUKEE, Wis.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–The Manitowoc Company, Inc. (NYSE: MTW), (the “Company” or “Manitowoc”) a leading global manufacturer of cranes and lifting solutions, today reported a fourth-quarter net loss of $(3.6) million, or $(0.10) per diluted share. The results were unfavorably impacted by a $13.9 million charge due to a legal matter with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. Fourth-quarter adjusted net income(1) was $9.4 million, or $0.27 per diluted share.

Net sales in the fourth quarter increased 15.7% year-over-year to $497.8 million and were unfavorably impacted from changes in foreign currency exchange rates of $8.5 million. Adjusted EBITDA(1) in the quarter was $34.2 million, or 6.9% of net sales.

Fourth-quarter orders increased 21.0% year-over-year to $615.2 million and were unfavorably impacted by $13.0 million, or 2.1%, from changes in foreign currency exchange rates. Backlog as of December 31, 2021 totaled $1,010.9 million, an increase of 86.1% year-over-year.

Full-year 2021 net sales of $1,720.2 million were favorably impacted by $31.0 million from changes in foreign currency exchange rates. Full-year 2021 adjusted EBITDA(1) was $116.0 million, or 6.7% of net sales. Manitowoc recorded full-year net income of $11.0 million, or $0.31 per diluted share. Full-year net income on an adjusted basis(1) was $30.6 million, or $0.86 per diluted share.

“In spite of the multitude of operational challenges we faced during the year, the Manitowoc team ended the quarter exceptionally strong and delivered great results,” commented Aaron H. Ravenscroft, President and Chief Executive Officer of The Manitowoc Company, Inc. “As the crane market dynamics remain robust, orders for the quarter increased 21% year-over-year, and our backlog ended the year in excess of $1.0 billion, our highest level in over 10 years. This improved demand combined with our recent acquisitions provide us with a solid foundation as we focus on growth in 2022 and beyond. As previously indicated, we will continue to battle inflation, parts shortages, and logistic disruptions. However, we expect those headwinds to subside as the year progresses,” said Ravenscroft.

“On the back of our four strategic initiatives, we are introducing Cranes+50, which codifies our ambition to increase our non-new machine sales by 50% over the next five years. Growing our aftermarket business is critical to reducing our cyclicality and expanding our margins long-term,” concluded Ravenscroft.

We are introducing 2022 guidance based on the current economic environment and our expectations for the remainder of 2022 as follows:

  • Net sales – approximately $2.0 billion to $2.2 billion
  • Adjusted EBITDA – approximately $130 million to $160 million
  • Depreciation and amortization – approximately $65 million
  • Interest expense – approximately $28 million to $30 million
  • Provision for income taxes – approximately $13 million to $17 million
  • Adjusted diluted earnings per share – approximately $0.65 to $1.35
  • Capital expenditures – approximately $85 million, of which approximately $35 million will be funded from sales of the existing rental fleet

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Non-GAAP Items

Adjusted net income (loss), adjusted diluted net income (loss) per share, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted operating income and free cash flows are financial measures that are not in accordance with GAAP. Manitowoc believes these non-GAAP financial measures provide important supplemental information to both management and investors regarding financial and business trends used in assessing its results of operations. Manitowoc believes excluding specified items provides a more meaningful comparison to the corresponding reporting periods and internal budgets and forecasts, assists investors in performing analysis that is consistent with financial models developed by investors and research analysts, provides management with a more relevant measure of operating performance and is more useful in assessing management performance.
