INVACARE REPORTS RESULTS FOR SECOND QUARTER 2022

Achieved sequential improvement in profitability and free cash flow


ELYRIA, Ohio - (August 8, 2022) - Invacare Corporation (NYSE: IVC) ("Invacare" or the "company") today reported results for the quarter ended June 30, 2022.
Executive Summary
Reflecting on the quarter, Matt Monaghan, chairman, president, and chief executive officer, said "In 2Q22, we achieved sequential revenue growth of 4.7% in mobility & seating products driven by increased adoption of our compelling product portfolio. We continue to experience elevated backlog across all product categories and regions, and see strong demand in mobility & seating and lifestyle products. We are working diligently to increase output and convert order backlog into sales.
We continue to make good progress on our business transformation initiative as demonstrated by sequential improvement in gross margin and lower SG&A expense. The sequential improvement in gross margin was driven by increased price effectiveness and favorable product mix. Importantly, as guided, we achieved sequential improvement in Adjusted EBITDA and free cash flow even as we endured supply chain challenges and foreign exchange headwinds.
To further accelerate our business evolution and growth strategy, we are pleased to have secured additional capital in July which provides increased liquidity and flexibility. We expect this strategic funding will enable us to more efficiently address our elevated backlog and better serve customer demand. We look forward to providing updates in the coming quarters on additional transformative actions intended to drive increased profitability and enhance shareholder value."

Key Metrics
•Reported net sales were $189.0 million, a decrease of 16.3% and constant currency net sales(a) decreased 10.7%, compared to the 2Q21.
•Gross margin was 25.4%, an increase of 160 basis points on a sequential basis and a decrease of 150 basis points compared to 2Q21.
•SG&A expense of $58.6 million decreased 8.1%, and constant currency SG&A(b) decreased 3.8% compared to 2Q21 primarily attributable to lower employment costs.
•Operating loss was $14.8 million compared to a loss of $3.5 million in 2Q21; improvement of $1.8 million sequentially.

•Adjusted EBITDA(c) loss was $4.8 million, compared to positive $5.5 million in 2Q21; improvement of $3.8 million sequentially.
•Free cash flow(d) generated was $0.1 million, an improvement of $29.9 million sequentially and improved $27.3 million from 2Q21.


Commenting on the company's financial results, Kathy Leneghan, senior vice president and chief financial officer stated, "We achieved significant improvement in free cash flow compared to 2Q21 and sequentially as we diligently managed our working capital driving improved cash conversion including lower accounts receivable and inventory levels. At the same time, our new credit facility increases our financial flexibility and provides additional liquidity to address near-term supply chain challenges and accelerate our transformation initiatives. In addition, the convertible debt exchange results in both debt discount recapture and a path for future debt reduction."

All Other7.5 8.3 (9.5)(1.8)(7.9)(9.5)17.5 

The company continues to implement additional transformative actions to improve business results. As these actions increase in effectiveness, the company expects to drive sequential improvement each quarter throughout the remainder of 2022.

At a segment level, reported net sales in Europe declined due to unfavorable foreign exchange while constant currency net sales increased driven by sales of respiratory and mobility & seating products. In North America, revenues declined due primarily to lower sales of respiratory products. Sales in the Asia Pacific region, reported in All Other, declined as growth in mobility & seating and lifestyle products was more than offset by lower sales of respiratory products. Sequentially, constant currency net sales of mobility & seating products grew across all segments.

Gross margin improved by 160 basis points sequentially driven by the benefit of pricing actions and favorable product mix. Gross profit was flat sequentially on lower revenues and was also negatively impacted by $1.5 million of unfavorable foreign currency translation.

SG&A constant currency expense decreased primarily attributable to lower employment costs, including the benefit of previously announced restructuring actions. The current quarter includes $2.7 million of IT expenses being classified as operating costs as a result of a temporary pause in the ERP roll-out, similar to 1Q22, as the company continues to focus on restructuring actions. Previously, these IT costs were classified as capital expenditures and were included in All Other.

As previously disclosed, the company incurred $4.2 million of restructuring expense during 2Q22 related to severance and other costs as compared to $0.5 million in 2Q21. The costs were incurred in both the Europe and North America segments. Benefits from the restructuring actions are expected to be realized in the 2H22.

Second Half 2022 Update

The benefit of additional liquidity available to the business is expected to improve access to components and support 2H22 improvement in net sales, but this benefit is not anticipated to have a meaningful impact until later half in the year. For 2H22, the company anticipates an improvement in Adjusted EBITDA as compared to 1H22 driven by gross profit improvement with increased effectiveness of pricing actions, and restructuring benefits partially offset by continued higher input costs. As anticipated, demand for respiratory products is expected to lessen in the next several quarters given less COVID-related demand.

Given the continuing supply chain challenges, the company has suspended its full year 2022 financial guidance. The company will provide updates to the market as the year progresses on the planned deployment of recently announced funding, and as circumstances evolve.

The company continues to focus on its transformation plan, revenue growth for clinically relevant product categories, and effectiveness of pricing actions to drive significant improvement in financial performance to deliver enhanced long-term shareholder value.

Definitions of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
(a) "Constant currency net sales" is a non-GAAP financial measure, which is defined as net sales excluding the impact of foreign currency translation. The current year's functional constant currency net sales are translated using the prior year's foreign exchange rates. These amounts are then compared to the prior year's sales to calculate the constant currency net sales change. The "Business Segments Net Sales" table accompanying this press release compares net sales as reported and net sales excluding the effects of foreign exchange translation by segment and for the consolidated company for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and June 30, 2021, respectively. The company believes that this financial measure provides meaningful information for evaluating the core operating performance of the company. This financial measure is reconciled to the related GAAP financial measures in the "Business Segment Net Sales" table included in this press release.
(b) "Constant Currency SG&A" is a non-GAAP financial measure, which is defined as selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") expense excluding the impact of foreign currency translation. The current period's functional constant currency SG&A expenses are translated using the prior year's foreign exchange rates. These amounts are then compared to the prior year's SG&A expenses to calculate the constant currency SG&A expenses change.
(c) "Adjusted EBITDA" is a non-GAAP financial measure, which is defined as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization and calculated as net loss plus: income taxes, interest expense-net, net gain or loss on convertible debt derivatives, net gain or loss on debt extinguishment including debt finance charges and fees, asset write-downs related to intangible assets, impairment of goodwill, net gain or loss on sale of business, and depreciation and amortization, as further adjusted to exclude charges related to restructuring activities and stock compensation expense. It should be noted that the company's definition of Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similar measures disclosed by other companies because not all companies and financial analysts calculate Adjusted EBITDA in the same manner. The company believes that this financial measure provides meaningful information which is used by financial analysts and others in the company's industry to evaluate the performance of the company. This financial measure is reconciled to the related GAAP financial measure in the “Reconciliation of Net Income (Loss) to Adjusted EBITDA” table included in this press release.
(d) "Free cash flow" is a non-GAAP financial measure, which is defined as net cash provided (used) by operating activities less purchases of property and equipment plus proceeds from sales of property and equipment. The company believes that this financial measure provides meaningful information for evaluating the overall financial performance of the company and its ability to repay debt or make future investments. This financial measure is reconciled to the related GAAP financial measure in the “Reconciliation from Net Cash Provided (Used) by Operating Activities to Free Cash Flow” table included in this press release.
