DMC Global Inc. (formerly Dynamic Materials Corporation) (NASDAQ: BOOM) today reported financial results for its fourth quarter and full fiscal year ended December 31, 2016.

Fourth quarter sales were $40.2 million, a 10% sequential increase versus the 2016 third quarter, and a 5% decrease from $41.9 million reported in the 2015 fourth quarter. Management previously forecasted a sales decline of 15% versus last year's fourth quarter. The better-than-expected results were driven by improving customer demand at DynaEnergetics, DMC's oilfield products business, and the accelerated delivery of multiple orders at NobelClad, the Company's explosion welding business. 

Fourth quarter gross margin was 25% versus 23% in the third quarter and 5% in last year's fourth quarter. Management previously forecasted a gross margin range of 20% to 22%. Record unit sales of DynaEnergetics intrinsically safe DynaSelect detonators, as well as a favorable product mix at NobelClad, led to the better-than-expected results. Last year's fourth quarter gross margin includes the impact of a reserve for potential anti-dumping duties and a reserve adjustment for slow moving inventory. Excluding these reserves, gross margin would have been 23% in last year's fourth quarter.

Loss from operations in the fourth quarter was $1.9 million versus an operating loss of $19.4 million in the year-ago fourth quarter. Last year's operating loss included a non-cash goodwill impairment charge and a reserve for potential anti-dumping duties. Net loss in the 2016 fourth quarter was $2.2 million, or $0.15 per diluted share, versus a net loss of $16.0 million, or $1.15 per diluted share, in the 2015 fourth quarter. 

Fourth quarter adjusted EBITDA* was $1.5 million versus $1.2 million in the third quarter and $3.3 million in last year's fourth quarter.

NobelClad
NobelClad reported fourth quarter sales of $22.9 million, up 35% sequentially, and a 2% decrease from the fourth quarter of 2015. Operating income was $2.5 million, versus operating income in the 2015 fourth quarter of $1.3 million, which included a $144,000 restructuring charge related to the consolidation of NobelClad's European operations. Adjusted EBITDA was $3.5 million versus $1.7 million in the third quarter and $2.5 million in the fourth quarter of 2015. NobelClad ended the quarter with an order backlog of $31.6 million versus $32.9 million at the end of the third quarter and $41.8 million at the end of the 2015 fourth quarter.

DynaEnergetics
Sales at DynaEnergetics were $17.3 million, a 12% sequential decrease from the 2016 third quarter, and a 7% decline from last year's fourth quarter. Excluding an India tender order that shipped during the third quarter, sales increased 7% sequentially. Loss from operations was $2.4 million versus a fourth quarter 2015 operating loss of $19.0 million. This year's results included the impact of higher legal fees, while last year's fourth quarter was impacted by the effects of goodwill impairment, restructuring, accrued anti-dumping duties and an inventory reserve adjustment. Adjusted EBITDA in the 2016 fourth quarter was negative $702,000 versus $1.2 million in the third quarter and $1.9 million in the comparable 2015 quarter.

Full-Year Results
Consolidated sales in 2016 were $158.6 million, down 5% from sales of $166.9 million in 2015. Gross margin in 2016 was 25% versus 21% in 2015. Prior-year gross margin was 26% after excluding an accrual for anti-dumping duties and an inventory reserve adjustment at DynaEnergetics.

Loss from operations was $5.3 million, which included approximately $1.2 million in restructuring expense, versus a loss from operations of $23.7 million in the comparable year-ago period, which included $23.7 million in special items*. Net loss was $6.5 million, or $0.46 per diluted share, versus a net loss of $24.0 million, or $1.72 per diluted share, in the comparable year-ago period. Adjusted EBITDA was $9.0 million versus $13.1 million in 2015.

The Company ended 2016 with net debt (lines of credit less cash and cash equivalents) of $9.3 million versus $20.5 million at the end of 2015. 

NobelClad
NobelClad reported full-year sales of $91.3 million, up 1% from $90.0 million in 2015. Operating income was $8.9 million versus $5.8 million in 2015, which included $750,000 in restructuring charges. Adjusted EBITDA was $12.9 million versus $10.7 million in 2015. 

DynaEnergetics
DynaEnergetics reported full-year sales of $67.3 million, down 12% from $76.9 million in 2015. Loss from operations was $5.4 million, which includes $1.1 million in restructuring expenses. In 2015, operating loss was $19.2 million, including $21.3 million of special items. Adjusted EBITDA was $2.5 million in 2016, down from $8.1 million in 2015.

Management Commentary
"Demand from North America's onshore oil and gas industry showed additional signs of improvement during the fourth quarter, and helped fuel a stronger-than-expected performance at DynaEnergetics," said Kevin Longe, president and CEO. "At NobelClad, the operations team at our Mt. Braddock, Pennsylvania facility capitalized on the early arrival of materials to accelerate production on multiple orders originally scheduled for delivery in early 2017. It was an encouraging end to a year marked by extremely difficult conditions in our primary energy end markets."

Longe continued, "Our initiatives during the downturn, which included the consolidation of our global footprint; a significant reduction in our debt position; the strengthening of our management team; increased investments in R&D; and the introduction of new technologies and products, have enabled us to exit the downturn as a much stronger company than we were going in. The outcome of these programs is particularly evident at DynaEnergetics, which delivered a second consecutive quarter of record DynaSelect unit sales, and saw expanded customer interest in its factory-assembled DynaStage perforating system." 

"Several new DynaStage customer opportunities have emerged during the first quarter, and include some of the energy industry's largest oilfield service companies," Longe added. "One of these companies plans to commence trials of the system next week, and we are in advanced discussions with another about initiating a trial program during the second quarter."

Longe said DynaStage is helping mitigate various challenges within the oilfield service industry as the recovery takes hold. "Many wireline companies are dealing with significant manpower and infrastructure limitations given the deep cost cutting initiatives made during the downturn. Since DynaStage is delivered fully assembled to the well site, it eliminates the need for remote assembly facilities and associated crews. Moreover, the system is built around our intrinsically safe, wireless detonator technology, so it is easy to use and extremely reliable. These benefits are helping drive down the total cost of operation for both our wireline customers and the exploration and production companies they serve." 

DynaEnergetics has sold approximately 20,000 DynaStage systems since introducing the product less than two years ago, and is preparing for a substantial increase in unit sales during 2017.

Longe said, "DynaEnergetics announced a series of price increases during the first quarter, which represented a key first step toward returning to the target margins the business seeks for its advanced technologies. We believe the industry-wide pickup in demand, combined with our focus on selling high value products to tier-1 and tier-2 service companies, will help further address our margin recovery initiatives as the year proceeds."

Longe added, "At NobelClad, customer commentary has turned more positive since the start of the year. John Scheatzle, NobelClad's new president, recently met with several North American fabricators, and noted that improving economic conditions and higher energy prices are fueling optimism that spending on deferred maintenance and upgrade projects will improve in the coming months. NobelClad's marketing team continues to pursue longer-range opportunities, and is expanding its roster of targeted end users in the energy, petrochemical and transportation industries. When capital spending improves within these sectors, we are confident that NobelClad's operational strengths will position it to benefit from the recovery."

Michael Kuta, CFO, said improved customer demand at DynaEnergetics is requiring increased investments in working capital. "In consideration of these needs, we recently entered into an amended credit facility with our commercial banking syndicate, which will address potential near-term constraints on our covenants. The new facility steps up the maximum allowable leverage ratio and provides relief under our debt service coverage ratio through the third quarter. Our borrowing capacity under the credit facility was reduced to $35 million from the prior $75 million. The smaller credit facility provides us with adequate liquidity to fund our anticipated working capital needs."

Kuta said the modified agreement also enables the Company to address certain financial obligations related to a previously reported anti-dumping case currently before the U.S. Commerce Department. An update on these and other legal proceedings can be found in our Form 10-K, filed today with the Securities and Exchange Commission. 

Longe concluded, "The recovery in the energy industry is in the early stages, but its positive impact already is evident at DynaEnergetics. NobelClad's end markets are inherently slower to react to market shifts, but we remain optimistic that the broader economic recovery will ultimately lead to increased investments within our global industrial infrastructure markets as well."

Guidance
Kuta said full-year 2017 sales are expected to increase 10% to 15% versus the $158.6 million reported in 2016. At the business level, DynaEnergetics sales are expected to increase 30% to 35% versus 2016 sales of $67.3 million, while NobelClad's sales are anticipated to be flat versus the $91.3 million reported in 2016. NobelClad's sales forecast includes a $9.0 million order that the business anticipates will be placed during the first half of 2017. Full-year gross margin is expected in a range of 26% to 28% versus the 25% reported in 2016. Selling, general and administrative expense is anticipated in a range of $38 million to $40 million versus the $38.8 million reported in 2016. 

For the first quarter, sales are expected to decline 5% to 10% versus the $40.5 million reported in the 2016 first quarter. DynaEnergetics' first quarter sales are expected to increase approximately 40% versus 2016 first quarter sales of $15.5 million, while NobelClad's sales are anticipated to decline approximately 35% versus the $25.0 million reported in the 2016 first quarter. The NobelClad decline is due in part to the previously mentioned orders that were produced ahead of schedule and delivered during last year's fourth quarter. First quarter gross margin is expected to be in a range of 24% to 26% versus the 26% reported in last year's first quarter. Selling, general and administrative expense is expected to total approximately $10.8 million versus $9.8 million in last year's first quarter. The increase relates primarily to higher legal fees associated with an anti-dumping case and patent litigation. Amortization expense is anticipated to be approximately $1.0 million.

*Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP (generally accepted accounting principles) financial measure used by management to measure operating performance. 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, restructuring and impairment charges 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 were 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, restructuring and impairment charges). 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.
