CHICAGO, February 20, 2024 - JBT Corporation (NYSE: JBT), a leading global technology solutions provider to high-value segments of the food & beverage industry, today reported results for the fourth quarter and full year 2023.
"JBT delivered solid year-over-year earnings growth and continued margin expansion in 2023," said Brian Deck, President and Chief Executive Officer. "Moreover, we made continued progress on our Elevate 2.0 strategy by becoming a pure-play food and beverage technology solutions provider, advancing the adoption of our digital solutions, and growing recurring revenue."
Comparisons in this news release are to the comparable period of the prior year, unless otherwise noted. An earnings presentation with supplemental information is also available on the Company's Investor Relations website at https://ir.jbtc.com/events-and-presentations/.
Fourth Quarter 2023 Results
"We are pleased with our financial performance, as fourth quarter margins and earnings per share exceeded our guidance while revenue met our expectations," said Matt Meister, Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer. "Our margin improvement was highlighted by strong operational performance and excellent execution on our supply chain initiatives."
AeroTech's financial results were transitioned to discontinued operations beginning in the second quarter of 2023, and prior period financial results have been recast accordingly. The below paragraphs reflect JBT's results from continuing operations.
During the fourth quarter of 2023, JBT elected to move to the FIFO inventory method for all inventories historically on LIFO. As a result, historical financial results have been recast. This election change does not impact adjusted EBITDA or adjusted earnings per share as JBT’s metrics already reflected a FIFO accounting basis.
Fourth quarter 2023 revenue of $445 million increased 1 percent year over year. Income from continuing operations of $53 million increased 69 percent. Included in income from continuing operations was an $11 million discrete benefit to the tax provision, resulting from the sale of a subsidiary. Adjusted EBITDA of $81 million increased 18 percent, and adjusted EBITDA margin of 18.2 percent increased 260 basis points. JBT incurred approximately $2 million of expense and realized approximately $4 million in savings related to its ongoing restructuring program.
Diluted earnings per share (EPS) of $1.64 increased 69 percent, and adjusted EPS of $1.40 increased 24 percent. The discrete benefit to the tax provision was excluded from adjusted EPS.
Full Year 2023 Results
Full year 2023 revenue of $1,664 million increased 5 percent year over year, which was primarily due to growth from acquisitions. Income from continuing operations of $129 million increased 25 percent. Adjusted EBITDA of $273 million increased 20 percent, and adjusted EBITDA margin of 16.4 percent increased 210 basis points. JBT incurred approximately $11 million of expense and realized approximately $11 million in savings related to its ongoing restructuring program.
Diluted EPS of $4.02 increased 24 percent, and adjusted EPS of $4.10 increased 12 percent. Orders of $1,668 million increased 5 percent, and year-end backlog of $678 million increased 2 percent.
JBT generated full year 2023 operating cash flow from continuing operations of $74 million and free cash flow of $167 million, representing a free cash flow conversion of 129 percent. Free cash flow excludes the income taxes related to the gain from the sale of AeroTech as well as voluntary pension contributions. At year-end, JBT's leverage ratio was 0.6x net debt to trailing twelve months adjusted EBITDA.
2024 Outlook
"In 2024, we expect to deliver mid-single-digit organic top line growth primarily through recurring revenue initiatives and a strengthening demand environment for equipment, which includes improvement in the North American poultry market in the back half of the year," added Meister. "We also expect to capture continued margin expansion through further advancement of our supply chain and manufacturing efficiency initiatives as well as ongoing benefits from our restructuring efforts."
The table below reflects JBT's guidance for full year 2024. Since the preliminary outlook provided on January 19, 2024, JBT updated income from continuing operations and GAAP EPS guidance to reflect additional expected M&A related costs in the first half of 2024. These M&A costs relate to the potential merger offer for Marel hf (Marel) and do not impact adjusted EBITDA or adjusted EPS guidance.

For the full year 2024, JBT expects net interest income of approximately $4 million. Additionally, JBT expects to incur approximately $1 million in restructuring costs and $15 million in M&A related costs in the first half of 2024. The tax rate is forecast to be 22 - 23 percent, which is prior to any discrete items.
For the first quarter of 2024, JBT anticipates typical seasonality in revenue and earnings. JBT expects a revenue split of approximately 47 percent in the first half of 2024 with approximately 53 percent in the second half of 2024 driven by improvement in demand in the North American poultry market. JBT also anticipates margin improvement during each sequential quarter in 2024 as market conditions are expected to improve and strategic sourcing actions flow through to the results.
Potential Merger with Marel
Consistent with JBT's strategy to deploy capital to strategic mergers and acquisitions while maintaining financial flexibility, the Company announced its intention to pursue a merger with Marel on January 19, 2024.
A combination of JBT and Marel would bring together two renowned companies with long histories and complementary product portfolios, highly respected brands, and impressive technology. The combined company's enhanced operating scale, expanded global reach, and scalable innovation are expected to create beneficial outcomes for customers while also providing meaningful shareholder value creation.
The combined company would maintain a long-term commitment to Marel’s heritage, including a significant Icelandic presence. The combined company shares would have a secondary listing on Nasdaq Iceland, subject to Icelandic regulatory approval, in addition to continuing JBT’s listing on the NYSE.
JBT anticipates the launch of the tender offer for Marel at an offer price of €3.60. The offer will include terms that are expected to achieve a weighted average mix consideration of 65 percent in JBT shares and 35 percent in cash. The stock portion of the offer is expected to be set at a fixed exchange ratio using a JBT share price of $96.25. Additionally, JBT's offer contemplates the assumption of Marel's outstanding debt obligations. Launch of the offer will most likely occur in the second quarter of 2024 and remains subject to confirmatory due diligence, mutual agreement on non-price deal terms, and board approvals of both Marel and JBT.
Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2023 Earnings Conference Call
A conference call is scheduled for 10:00 a.m. ET on Wednesday, February 21, 2024, to discuss fourth quarter and full year 2023 results. Participants may access the conference call through online registration at https://registrations.events/direct/Q4I767667. A simultaneous webcast and audio replay of the call will be available on the Company’s Investor Relations website at https://ir.jbtc.com/events-and-presentations/.

| The above table reports free cash flow, which is a non-GAAP financial measure. We use free cash flow internally as a key indicator of our liquidity and ability to service debt, invest in business combinations, and return money to shareholders and believe this information is useful to investors because it provides an understanding of the cash available to fund these initiatives. For free cash flow purposes, we consider contributions to pension plans to be more comparable to payment of debt, and therefore exclude these contributions from the calculation of free cash flow. Additionally, we exclude the income taxes on gain from sale of AeroTech as these represent one-time taxes paid on the sale of a discontinued operation that are not representative of taxes from operations. | |||||||||||
