Ziv Shoshani, Chief Executive Officer of VPG, commented, “We achieved solid financial results and record adjusted free cash flow in fiscal 2023, despite a more challenging macro environment in the second half of the year. For the fourth quarter, we grew revenue 4.3% compared to the third quarter of 2023, and delivered adjusted diluted net earnings per share* of $0.61. Reflecting our strong cash flow, we delivered adjusted EBITDA* of $16.5 million, an adjusted EBITDA margin* of 18.5%, and $13.5 million of adjusted free cash flow*. We continued to deploy our capital to create stockholder value in the fourth quarter with $4.7 million of stock repurchases and the $22.0 million repayment of our revolving credit facility that is expected to significantly reduce interest expense in 2024.

Fourth quarter bookings of $75.2 million declined 2.2% sequentially. While orders in our Measurement Systems segment declined due to timing of customer projects, orders in our Sensors and Weighing Solutions segment grew slightly, reflecting a modestly improved business environment. We expect to see further improvement in the second half of 2024 given our expanding pipeline of long-term opportunities for our precision measurement and sensor technologies, as we engage new and existing customers with solutions that make the world safer, smarter, and more productive.”

The Company’s fourth fiscal quarter 2023 net earnings attributable to VPG stockholders were $4.2 million, or $0.31 per diluted share, compared to $8.8 million, or $0.65 per diluted share, in the fourth fiscal quarter of 2022.

In the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023, net earnings attributable to VPG stockholders were $25.7 million, or $1.88 per diluted share, compared to $36.1 million, or $2.63 per diluted share, in the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022.

The fourth fiscal quarter 2023 adjusted net earnings* attributable to VPG stockholders were $8.2 million, or $0.61 per diluted share, compared to adjusted net earnings* attributable to VPG stockholders of $10.4 million, or $0.76 per diluted share, for the comparable prior year period.

In the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023, adjusted net earnings* attributable to VPG stockholders were $29.7 million, or $2.17 per diluted share, compared to adjusted net earnings* attributable to VPG stockholders of $35.9 million, or $2.62 per diluted share, for the comparable prior year period.

Segment Performance
The Sensors segment revenues of $34.3 million in the fourth fiscal quarter of 2023 decreased 5.7% from the prior year of $36.3 million and increased 5.3% sequentially from $32.5 million in the third quarter of 2023. The year-over-year decrease in revenues was primarily attributable to lower sales of advanced sensors in our Other markets for consumer applications, and in our Avionics, Military and Space (“AMS”) market, and in our General Industrial market, which offset higher sales of precision resistors in the Test and Measurement market. Sequentially, the increase in revenues primarily reflected higher precision resistor sales in the Test and Measurement market.

Gross profit margin for the Sensors segment of 40.2% for the fourth fiscal quarter of 2023 was higher compared to 37.6% in the fourth fiscal quarter of 2022, and higher compared to 35.9% in the third fiscal quarter of 2023. The year-over-year increase in gross profit margin was primarily due to favorable foreign exchange rates and improved manufacturing efficiencies, which offset the impact of lower volume. Sequentially, the increase in gross profit margin was primarily due to higher volume and improved manufacturing efficiencies.

The Weighing Solutions segment revenues of $30.4 million in the fourth fiscal quarter of 2023 decreased 8.0% from $33.1 million in the prior year and increased 5.1% from $29.0 million in the third quarter of 2023. The year-over-year decline in revenues was primarily attributable to lower revenues in our Industrial Weighing market and lower revenues from OEM customers for precision agriculture applications in our Other market segment. The sequential increase in revenues was primarily attributable to increased revenues from OEM customers for precision agriculture and construction applications in our Other market segment and higher revenue in our General Industrial market, partially offset by lower sales in the Transportation market.   

Gross profit margin for the Weighing Solutions segment was 35.6% for the fourth fiscal quarter of 2023, an increase compared to 33.4% in the fourth fiscal quarter of 2022, and a decrease compared to 38.7% in the third fiscal quarter of 2023. The year-over-year increase in gross profit margin was primarily due to increased selling prices, favorable foreign currency exchange rates, and manufacturing efficiencies, partially offset by lower volume. Sequentially, the decline in gross profit margin was primarily due to a reduction in inventory and unfavorable product mix, partially offset by higher volume.

The Measurement Systems segment revenues in the fourth fiscal quarter of 2023 of $24.8 million decreased 7.5% from $26.8 million in the prior year and increased 2.0% sequentially from $24.4 million in the third fiscal quarter of 2023.   The year-over-year decline in revenues was primarily attributable to lower sales of Dynamic Systems Inc. (“DSI”) and KELK products to the steel market and lower sales of Diversified Technical Systems, Inc. (“DTS”) products to the Transportation market, which was partially offset by higher sales of DTS products to the AMS market. The sequential increase in revenue was primarily attributable to higher sales of DTS products to the AMS market, which was partially offset by lower sales of DSI and KELK products to the Steel market.

Gross profit margin for the Measurement Systems segment was 56.0% for the fourth fiscal quarter of 2023, compared to 55.9% (or 56.8% adjusted to exclude the $0.2 million purchasing accounting adjustments related to the DTS acquisition) in the fourth fiscal quarter of 2022, and compared to 53.6% (or 54.5% adjusted to exclude the $0.2 million of purchasing accounting adjustments related to the DTS acquisition) from the third fiscal quarter of 2023. Year-over-year, the decline in adjusted gross profit margin* was primarily due to lower volume. Sequentially, the higher adjusted gross profit margin* in the fourth quarter of 2023 reflected higher volume and favorable product mix.

Near-Term Outlook
“For the first fiscal quarter of 2024 at constant fourth fiscal quarter 2023 exchange rates, we expect net revenues to be in the range of $80 million to $90 million,” said Mr. Shoshani.

*Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information

We define “adjusted gross profit margin” as gross profit margin before purchase accounting adjustments related to the DTS and DSI acquisitions, start-up costs related to our new advanced sensors facility, and COVID-19 costs. We define “adjusted operating margin” as operating margin before purchase accounting adjustments related to the DTS and DSI acquisitions, start-up costs related to our new advanced sensors facility, COVID-19 costs, and restructuring costs. We define “adjusted net earnings” and “adjusted diluted net earnings per share” as net earnings attributable to VPG stockholders before purchase accounting adjustments related to the DTS and DSI acquisitions, start-up costs related to our new advanced sensors facility, COVID-19 costs, restructuring costs, foreign currency exchange gains and losses, and associated tax effects. We define “EBITDA” as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization. We define “Adjusted EBITDA” as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization before purchase accounting adjustments related to the DTS and DSI acquisitions, start-up costs related to our new advanced sensors facility, COVID-19 costs, restructuring costs, foreign currency exchange gains and losses, and associated tax effects.

“Adjusted free cash flow” for the fourth fiscal quarter of 2023 is defined as the amount of cash generated from operating activities ($18.8 million), in excess of our capital expenditures ($5.3 million), net of proceeds, if any, from the sale of assets ($0.0 million). “Adjusted free cash flow” for the fiscal year of 2023 is defined as the amount of cash generated from operating activities ($45.9 million) in excess of our capital expenditures ($15.2 million), net of proceeds, if any, from the sale of assets ($0.1 million).  

Management believes that these non-GAAP measures are useful to investors because each presents what management views as our core operating results for the relevant period. The adjustments to the applicable GAAP measures relate to occurrences or events that are outside of our core operations, and management believes that the use of these non-GAAP measures provides a consistent basis to evaluate our operating profitability and performance trends across comparable periods. These reconciling items are indicated on the accompanying reconciliation schedules and are more fully described in VPG’s financial statements presented in our Annual Report on Form 10-K and Quarterly Reports on Forms 10-Q.
