Stoneridge, Inc. (NYSE: SRI) today announced financial results for the fourth quarter and full-year ended December 31, 2020, with fourth quarter sales of $189.7 million and EPS of $0.13 and full-year sales of $648.0 million and loss per share of ($0.29).  Adjusted EPS was $0.14 for the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2020 and adjusted loss per share was ($0.03) for the full-year 2020.  The exhibits attached hereto provide reconciliation detail on the normalizing adjustments.

For the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2020, Stoneridge reported gross profit of $49.6 million and adjusted gross profit of $50.0 million (26.4% of sales). Fourth quarter 2020 operating income was $5.7 million and adjusted operating income was $7.0 million (3.7% of sales).  Fourth quarter 2020 adjusted EBITDA was $16.2 million (8.6% of sales).

For the full-year ended December 31, 2020, Stoneridge reported gross profit of $154.2 million and adjusted gross profit of $158.1 million (24.4% of sales).  2020 operating loss was ($7.7) million and adjusted operating income was $2.1 million (0.3% of sales).  2020 adjusted EBITDA was $37.9 million (5.8% of sales).

Jon DeGaynor, president and chief executive officer, commented, "As a company, despite the obvious external challenges, we delivered strong financial performance in 2020 by adapting our cost structure to current market conditions and managing our cash position throughout the year.  By continuing to focus on reducing material costs and the efficient ramp-up of production facilities as volumes increased, we were able to capture strong incremental margins in the second half of the year, which has created good momentum as we head into 2021.  Furthermore, the transformation of the company continued in 2020 as we focused on rationalizing our product portfolio and optimizing our manufacturing footprint to drive long-term profitable growth.  MirrorEye® continued to progress throughout the year as we expanded retrofit programs, announced pre-wire availability with Daimler Trucks North America in the third quarter and prepared for the launches of our first OEM programs in 2021.  Finally, we continued to invest the necessary capital and resources to ensure the successful launch of our strong backlog1 of new business and continue to build upon the technologies and platforms that will support future growth."   

Fourth Quarter in Review
Control Devices' fourth quarter 2020 sales totaled $100.4 million, a decrease of $0.5 million, or (0.5%), relative to the third quarter of 2020. Control Devices adjusted gross margin decreased compared to the third quarter of 2020 as a result of slightly reduced sales as well as an increase in expediting costs associated with a significant ramp-up in sales in the second half of the year. The segment's adjusted operating income decreased relative to the third quarter as a result of lower sales and gross margin slightly offset by lower D&D expenses as a percentage of sales, resulting in an adjusted operating margin of 12.6%.  Fourth quarter sales increased by approximately 7.3% relative to the fourth quarter 2019 adjusted sales excluding the impact of divested non-core products business.  Fourth quarter adjusted operating margin increased by 190 basis points relative to the fourth quarter 2019  adjusted operating margin excluding the impact of divested non-core products business.

Electronics' fourth quarter sales totaled $84.1 million, an increase of $13.7 million, or 19.5%, relative to the third quarter of 2020 primarily as a result of continued strong production volumes primarily in the North American and European commercial vehicle markets. Electronics adjusted gross margin increased due to favorable product mix, cost improvements in electronic components and fixed overhead leverage on incremental sales compared to the third quarter of 2020. The segment's adjusted operating income increased relative to the third quarter as a result of increased sales and gross margin as well as lower SG&A expenses as a percentage of sales, slightly offset by higher D&D expenses as a percentage of sales, resulting in an adjusted operating margin of 5.2%. Fourth quarter sales increased by approximately 4.5% and adjusted operating margin increased by 390 basis points compared to the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2019.

Stoneridge Brazil's fourth quarter sales totaled $13.3 million, an increase of $0.5 million, or 3.4% relative to the third quarter. Stoneridge Brazil's adjusted gross margin declined due to the increase in direct material costs due to the impact of foreign currency and global supply chain disruptions on material purchases, partially offset by fixed cost leverage as compared to the third quarter. The segment's adjusted operating income decreased relative to the third quarter as a result of decreased adjusted gross margin and higher SG&A and D&D expenses as a percentage of sales, resulting in an adjusted operating margin of 1.1%. Fourth quarter sales decreased by 22.2% and adjusted operating margin decreased by 100 basis points compared to the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2019.

DeGaynor continued, "We believe the actions taken in 2020 positioned each of our segments for continued long-term success. Control Devices is increasingly well positioned with a focus on the continued development and commercialization of actuation and electrified powertrain applications that will drive future growth for the segment. In Electronics, we expect strong revenue growth in 2021 as our end markets continue to recover and we launch and ramp-up several large programs during the year, including our first two MirrorEye® OEM programs. Stoneridge Brazil continues to integrate into our global Electronics strategy as we leverage our global engineering footprint and prepare for continued expansion of our local OEM presence. Overall, we will continue to focus our resources on the areas of largest opportunity for the Company and drive long-term value creation for our shareholders."

Cash and Debt Balances
During the quarter, the Company reduced net debt by approximately $13.5 million relative to the prior quarter and repaid $8.0 million on its existing credit facility. As of December 31, 2020, Stoneridge had cash and cash equivalent balances totaling $73.9 million.  Total debt as of December 31, 2020 was $143.7 million. Total debt less cash and cash equivalents yields a current net debt to trailing-twelve-month adjusted EBITDA ratio of approximately 1.8x. The Company had approximately $262.3 million of undrawn commitments under the existing credit facility as of December 31, 2020, which resulted in total undrawn commitments and cash balances of $336.2 million.

2021 Outlook
The Company announced 2021 sales guidance of $770.0 - $790.0 million. The Company noted that 2021 guidance also includes certain assumptions regarding the potential adverse impact of global supply chain disruptions.

Bob Krakowiak, executive vice president and chief financial officer, commented, "We are expecting increased 2021 revenue relative to 2020, with midpoint revenue guidance of $780 million driven primarily by several significant program launches during the year and increased end market production forecasts.  Our midpoint revenue guidance implies approximately 20% growth relative to 2020 which implies growth over market of approximately 5%.  While we don't expect a significant annual revenue impact as a result of global supply chain disruptions, we have included an expected adverse margin impact in our guidance due to increased material and logistics costs, which are expected to primarily impact the first half of the year.  Moving forward, we expect that the impact of new program launches will drive significant growth, and we have updated our long-term targeted revenue to reflect a compound annual growth rate of at least 10% through 2025, resulting in targeted 2023 revenue of at least $925 million and 2025 revenue of over $1.1 billion.  Driven by our strong five-year backlog1, we expect that approximately 85% of our 2025 targeted revenue will be drivetrain agnostic."   

Further, the Company announced guidance for 2021 adjusted gross margin of 25.75% - 26.75%, adjusted operating margin of 3.5% - 4.25% and adjusted EBITDA margin of 8.0% - 8.75% which includes assumptions regarding the impact of the potential global supply chain disruptions. 

The Company also announced adjusted earnings per share guidance of $0.60 - $0.75 and an effective tax rate of 22.5% - 27.5%.       

Krakowiak continued, "With respect to adjusted earnings per share, we are expecting continued strong incremental contribution on revenue, which will be partially offset by continued investment in engineering resources to support program launches and new technology development.  Additionally, we expect external factors, including adverse foreign currency exchange rates, material costs related to global supply chain disruptions and a slight increase to our tax rate, to reduce adjusted EPS by approximately $0.16 in 2021.  This results in adjusted EPS guidance of $0.60 to $0.75 in 2021."
