NAPCO Announces First Quarter Fiscal 2023 Results

-1st Quarter Sales Increase 27% to a Q1 Record $39.5 Million-

-1st Quarter Recurring Service Revenues Increase 35% to $13.8 Million With Gross Margins of 88%-

-Net Income of $6.4M and Adjusted EBITDA* of $8.3 Million for the Quarter -

AMITYVILLE, N.Y., November 7, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- NAPCO Security Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ: NSSC), one of the leading manufacturers and designers of high-tech electronic security devices, wireless recurring communication services for intrusion and fire alarm systems as well as a leading provider of school safety solutions, today announced financial results for its first quarter of fiscal 2023.

Financial Highlights:

● Net sales for the quarter increased 27% to a Q1 record of $39.5 million as compared to $31.1 million for the same period last year.

● Recurring service revenue ("RSR") for the quarter increased 35% to $13.8 million as compared to $10.2 million for the same period last year. Recurring service revenue now has a prospective annual run rate of approximately $58 million based on October 2022 recurring revenues.

● Gross margin for recurring service revenue for the quarter was 88% as compared to 86% for the same period last year.

● Net income for the quarter was $6.4 million as compared to $7.8 million for the same period a year ago. Net income for Q1 last year benefited from $3.9 million of Other income as the result of extinguishment of debt.

● Earnings per share (diluted) for the quarter was $0.17 as compared to $0.21 for the same period a year ago.  Of the $0.21 reported EPS for last years Q1, $0.11 was a result of the extinguishment of debt.

● Adjusted EBITDA* for the quarter was $8.3 million as compared to $4.7 million for the same period a year ago, a 77% increase.

● Adjusted EBITDA* per share (diluted) for the quarter was $0.22 as compared to $0.13 for the same period a year ago, a 69% increase.

● Cash and cash equivalents, other investments and marketable securities were $44.4 million at September 30, 2022, a 5% decrease as compared to $46.8 million at June 30, 2022. The Company had no debt as of September 30, 2022.

● Cash (Used in) Provided by Operating Activities for the three months was $(2.0) million as compared to $3.5 million for the same period last year. This decrease was primarily due to Inventories increasing by $14.1 million, resulting primarily from the Company’s decision to purchase hard to get parts used in products that generate recurring service revenues for the Company .

Richard Soloway, Chairman and President, commented, "Following a very strong sales performance in fiscal 2022, the momentum continued during the first quarter of fiscal 2023 with Q1 record sales of $39.5 million, a 27% increase over last year’s Q1 and the eighth consecutive quarter of record year-over-year quarterly sales. Both equipment revenue and recurring service revenue, which increased 23% and 35%, respectively, contributed to the year-over-year overall sales growth. Our recurring service revenue now has a prospective annual run rate of approximately $58 million based on October 2022 recurring service revenues. Gross margin for recurring service revenue increased 200 basis points to 88% for the quarter, which compared to 86% for the same period last year. Gross margins on hardware increased 100 basis points to 23%, as compared to 22% for the same period last year. Overall gross margins increased 300 basis points to 46% as compared to 43% for the same year ago period.

NAPCO executed exceptionally well in the first quarter, easily exceeding published street consensus estimates for Q1 on Revenue, Net Income, EPS and Adjusted EBITDA*, despite ongoing challenges within our supply chains. We continue to remain focused on aggressively managing these logistical challenges, in order to ensure that we remain well positioned to meet the needs of our customers. We continue to manage these issues by re-engineering products, developing alternative, more readily available supply sources and delivery methods and continuing to work closely with our customers and suppliers to navigate through these extraordinary times.

Our strategy to temporarily sacrifice hardware gross margin by purchasing components at higher prices so that we can continue to manufacture radios, which lead to continued high margin recurring revenue for each radio installed and operating, continues to work well. To accelerate our profitable growth, we are working on a number of strategic activities, including the development of alternative sources for those micros that are in high demand and which are key components in our Starlink radios We expect to see additional gross margin improvement from these activities within the next six months.

Our backlog remains near record levels and we remain confident in sustaining demand for our products against an increasingly uncertain economic environment.

Our balance sheet continues to be very strong, with cash and cash equivalents, other investments and marketable securities of $44.4 million and no debt at September 30, 2022. We continue to leverage our strong balance sheet by purchasing difficult to get electronic components which, while resulting in a significant inventory increase, has also led to continued strong sales growth. This reflects management's strategic decision to continue to invest resources in maximizing the production and sales of its cellular radios, which result in the highly profitable and continuous recurring revenue and which generated a gross margin of 88% in Q1.

With school security a paramount concern to many municipalities, our fully integrated technologies for the school security market continues to remain a top priority for NAPCO, given the healthy margins those products typically generate. With a market comprised of approximately 130,000 K-12’s and 5,000 colleges and universities across the country, most of who still need school security solutions, we remain laser-focused on further penetrating this market.

Mr. Soloway concluded, "NAPCO continues to deliver outstanding results as we successfully maneuver through a challenging operating environment. We remain confident in our ability to navigate through these difficult economic times and to continue to deliver strong growth in both equipment and recurring revenue. The demand for our products and services continues to be very strong. We are confident that our seasoned management team has the experience and methods from previous supply chain shortages, to deal with the volatility associated with the current global supply chain constraints. Our fundamental strategy continues to be to provide seamless security solutions for our customers and to continue to grow recurring revenue, now at a $58 million annual run rate, with both existing products as well as new ones, such as the unique to the industry Air Access products, which should generate a new stream of recurring revenue from the locking and access control segments of our business. Now, all portions of our business will be in position to generate recurring revenue. We continue to remain focused on delivering significant value to our shareholders by generating strong revenue growth as well as increased profitability for fiscal 2023 and beyond. The first quarter of fiscal 2023 was a strong performance for our Company and I remain confident that our best quarters are yet to come."

Financial Results

Net sales for the quarter increased 27% to a quarterly record of $39.5 million, as compared to $31.1 million for the same period one year ago. Research and development costs for the quarter increased 26% to $2.4 million or 6% of sales as compared to $1.9 million or 6% of sales for the same quarter a year ago. Selling, general and administrative expenses for the quarter increased 16% to $8.5 million or 22% of net sales, as compared to $7.3 million, or 24% of sales for the same period last year.

Operating income for the quarter increased 71% to $7.2 million as compared to $4.2 million for the same period last year. Net income for the quarter was $6.4 million or $0.17 per diluted share as compared to $7.8 million or $0.21 per diluted share for the same period last year, an 18% decrease.

Adjusted EBITDA* for the quarter was $8.3, million, or $0.22 per diluted share, as compared to $4.7 million, or $0.13 per diluted share for the same period last year, a 77% increase.

Net income and earnings per share for last year’s Q1 reflected Other income of $3.9 million which resulted from extinguishment of debt during the quarter ended September 30, 2021. Without such benefit, net income and earnings per share would have been $3.8 million and $0.10, respectively.

This press release contains forward-looking statements that are based on current expectations, estimates, forecasts and projections of future performance based on management's judgment, beliefs, current trends, and anticipated product performance. These forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements relating to the impact of COVID-19 pandemic; the growth of recurring service revenue and annual run rate; the introduction of new access control and locking products; the opportunities for fire alarm products; and our ability to execute our business strategies. Actual results, performance or achievements could differ materially from those anticipated in such forward-looking statements as a result of certain factors, including those risk factors set forth in the Company's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, such as our annual report on Form 10-K and quarterly reports on Form 10-Q. Other unknown or unpredictable factors or underlying assumptions subsequently proving to be incorrect could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee future results, level of activity, performance, or achievements. You should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements.

*Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Certain non-GAAP measures are included in this press release, including non-GAAP operating income and Adjusted EBITDA. We define Adjusted EBITDA as GAAP net income plus income tax expense, net interest expense, non-cash stock-based expense, non-recurring legal expense, other non-recurring income and depreciation and amortization expense. Non-GAAP operating income does not include amortization of intangibles or stock-based compensation expense.

By excluding these charges our non-GAAP results provide information to management and investors that is useful in assessing NAPCO's core operating performance and in comparing our results of operations on a consistent basis from period to period. Our use of non-GAAP financial measures has certain limitations in that such non-GAAP financial measures may not be directly comparable to those reported by other companies. For example, the terms used in this press release, such as Adjusted EBITDA, do not have a standardized meaning. Other companies may use the same or similarly named measures, but exclude different items, which may not provide investors with a comparable view of our performance in relation to other companies. The presentation of this information is not meant to be a substitute for the corresponding financial measures prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Investors are encouraged to review the reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP financial measures set forth above.
