The year-over-year increase in first quarter sales was primarily attributable to favorable volume and mix as well as realized recoveries of material cost inflation, which are reflected in price adjustments. These were partially offset by foreign exchange.
Net loss for the first quarter 2023 was $130.4 million, including $81.9 million in losses related to refinancing and extinguishment of debt, restructuring charges of $2.4 million and other special items. Net loss for the first quarter 2022 was $61.4 million, including restructuring charges of $7.8 million and other special items. Adjusted net loss, which excludes refinancing costs, restructuring, other special items and their related tax impact, was $46.2 million in the first quarter 2023 compared to adjusted net loss of $51.4 million in the first quarter of 2022. The year-over-year improvement was primarily due to improved volume and mix and favorable price adjustments, partially offset by higher interest expense and continuing inflationary pressure, including higher labor and energy costs.

Adjusted EBITDA for the first quarter of 2023 was $12.5 million compared to $0.1 million in the first quarter of 2022. The year-over-year improvement was primarily due to improved volume and mix, favorable price adjustments, and savings generated from lean manufacturing and purchasing initiatives. These were partially offset by continuing inflationary pressures, including higher labor and energy costs, and unfavorable foreign exchange.
Adjusted net loss, adjusted EBITDA and adjusted loss per diluted share are non-GAAP measures. Reconciliations to the most directly comparable financial measures, calculated and presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”), are provided in the attached supplemental schedules.
Automotive New Business Awards
The Company continues to leverage its world-class engineering and manufacturing capabilities, its innovation programs and its reputation for quality and service to win new business awards with its customers and capitalize on positive trends associated with electric vehicles. During the first quarter of 2023, the Company received net new business awards on electric vehicle platforms representing approximately $18 million in incremental anticipated future annualized sales.

Cash and Liquidity
As of March 31, 2023, Cooper Standard had cash and cash equivalents totaling $105.8 million. Total liquidity, including availability under the Company's amended senior asset-based revolving credit facility, was $254.8 million at the end of the first quarter 2023.
Based on current expectations for light vehicle production and customer demand for our products, the Company expects its current solid liquidity, including access to flexible credit facilities, will provide sufficient resources to support ongoing operations and the execution of planned strategic initiatives for the foreseeable future.
Outlook
Industry projections for global light vehicle production anticipate continued modest growth through the remainder of the year. The Company expects to successfully conclude commercial negotiations to drive further inflation recovery and positive, sustainable price adjustments, which would boost top line growth and margin expansion in the final three quarters of the year. Company management anticipates providing an update to full-year guidance in conjunction with the release of second quarter results.

Non-GAAP Measures
EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, adjusted net income (loss), adjusted earnings (loss) per share and free cash flow are measures not recognized under U.S. GAAP and which exclude certain non-cash and special items that may obscure trends and operating performance not indicative of the Company’s core financial activities. Net new business is a measure not recognized under U.S. GAAP which is a representation of potential incremental future revenue but which may not fully reflect all external impacts to future revenue. Management considers EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, adjusted net income (loss), adjusted earnings (loss) per share, free cash flow and net new business to be key indicators of the Company’s operating performance and believes that these and similar measures are widely used by investors, securities analysts and other interested parties in evaluating the Company’s performance. In addition, similar measures are utilized in the calculation of the financial covenants and ratios contained in the Company’s financing arrangements and management uses these measures for developing internal budgets and forecasting purposes. EBITDA is defined as net income (loss) adjusted to reflect income tax expense (benefit), interest expense net of interest income, depreciation and amortization, and adjusted EBITDA is defined as EBITDA further adjusted to reflect certain items that management does not consider to be reflective of the Company’s core operating performance. Adjusted net income (loss) is defined as net income (loss) adjusted to reflect certain items that management does not consider to be reflective of the Company’s core operating performance. Adjusted EBITDA margin is defined as adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of sales. Adjusted basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share is defined as adjusted net income (loss) divided by the weighted average number of basic and diluted shares, respectively, outstanding during the period. Free cash flow is defined as net cash provided by operating activities minus capital expenditures and is useful to both management and investors in evaluating the Company’s ability to service and repay its debt. Net new business reflects anticipated sales from formally awarded programs, less lost business, discontinued programs and replacement programs and is based on S&P Global (IHS Markit) forecast production volumes. The calculation of “net new business” does not reflect customer price reductions on existing programs and may be impacted by various assumptions embedded in the respective calculation, including actual vehicle production levels on new programs, foreign exchange rates and the timing of major program launches.
When analyzing the Company’s operating performance, investors should use EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, adjusted net income (loss), adjusted earnings (loss) per share, free cash flow and net new business as supplements to, and not as alternatives for, net income (loss), operating income, or any other performance measure derived in accordance with U.S. GAAP, and not as an alternative to cash flow from operating activities as a measure of the Company’s liquidity. EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income (loss), adjusted earnings (loss) per share, free cash flow and net new business have limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered in isolation or as substitutes for analysis of the Company’s results of operations as reported under U.S. GAAP. Other companies may report EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, adjusted net income (loss), adjusted earnings (loss) per share, free cash flow and net new business differently and therefore the Company’s results may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies. In addition, in evaluating adjusted EBITDA and adjusted net income (loss), it should be noted that in the future the Company may incur expenses similar to or in excess of the adjustments in the below presentation. This presentation of adjusted EBITDA and adjusted net income (loss) should not be construed as an inference that the Company’s future results will be unaffected by special items. Reconciliations of EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, adjusted net income (loss) and free cash flow follow.
