$26.0 million, bringing our net debt to $338.7 million,
with an overall leverage ratio on a net debt basis of 1.5
times.
Ted Harris, Chairman, CEO, and President of
Balchem said, “We delivered solid second quarter financials, and I
am particularly pleased with our strong profitability and margin
performance as we move forward from the highly inflationary period
we experienced over the last two years.”
Mr. Harris added, “The broader economic outlook
and market demand still shows a high degree of uncertainty and
demand patterns have not yet fully normalized, but I believe
Balchem’s strong market positions will enable us to continue to
deliver solid financial results as the markets recover more
broadly.”

Financial Results for the Second Quarter
of 2023:
The Human Nutrition &
Health segment generated quarterly sales of $135.7
million, an increase of $4.0 million, or 3.1%, compared to the
prior year quarter. The increase was primarily driven by the
contribution from recent acquisitions, partially offset by lower
sales within food and beverage markets and the minerals and
nutrients business. Record second quarter earnings from operations
for this segment of $27.5 million increased $3.8 million, or 16.0%,
compared to $23.7 million in the prior year quarter, primarily due
to the aforementioned higher sales, lower manufacturing input
costs, and favorable adjustments to transaction costs, partially
offset by restructuring-related impairment and asset disposal
charges, and incremental operating expenses and amortization
related to the Kappa and Bergstrom acquisitions. Excluding the
effect of non-cash expense associated with amortization of acquired
intangible assets and other adjustments, adjusted earnings from
operations(a) for this segment were a record $31.7 million,
compared to $27.7 million in the prior year quarter, an increase of
14.7%.
The Animal Nutrition &
Health segment generated quarterly sales of $61.3 million,
a decrease of $1.3 million, or 2.0%, compared to the prior
year quarter. The decrease was driven by lower sales in monogastric
markets, partially offset by higher sales in the ruminant species
markets. Second quarter earnings from operations for this segment
of $7.7 million increased $0.1 million, or 1.0%, compared to $7.6
million in the prior year quarter, primarily due to a favorable mix
and a decrease in manufacturing input costs, partially offset by
lower sales volumes. Excluding the effect of non-cash expense
associated with amortization of acquired intangible assets and
other adjustments, adjusted earnings from operations for this
segment were $7.5 million compared to $7.7 million in the prior
year quarter, a decrease of 2.2%.
The Specialty Products segment
generated quarterly sales of $32.7 million, a decrease of $3.9
million, or 10.7%, compared to the prior year quarter, due to lower
sales in both the plant nutrition and performance gases businesses.
Earnings from operations for this segment were $9.3 million,
compared to $9.9 million in the prior year comparable quarter, a
decrease of $0.6 million, or 6.3%, primarily driven by lower sales
volumes, partially offset by higher average selling prices and
lower manufacturing input costs. Excluding the effect of non-cash
expense associated with amortization of acquired intangible assets
and other adjustments, adjusted earnings from operations for this
segment were $10.4 million, compared to $11.0 million in the prior
year quarter, a decrease of 5.7%.
Record second quarter consolidated gross margin
of $77.3 million increased by $5.5 million or 7.6%, compared to
$71.9 million for the prior year comparable period. Gross margin as
a percentage of sales was 33.4% as compared to 30.4% in the prior
year period, an increase of 308 basis points, primarily due to
higher average selling prices and decreases in certain
manufacturing input costs. Operating expenses of $34.5 million for
the quarter increased $2.6 million from the prior year
comparable quarter, primarily due to restructuring-related
impairment and asset disposal charges, and incremental expenses and
amortization related to the Kappa and Bergstrom acquisitions,
partially offset by favorable adjustments to transaction costs.
Excluding non-cash operating expenses associated with amortization
of intangible assets of $6.3 million, operating expenses were $28.2
million, or 12.2% of sales.
Interest expense was $5.2 million and $1.0
million in the second quarters of 2023 and 2022, respectively. Our
effective tax rates for the three months ended June 30, 2023
and 2022 were 21.6% and 24.1%, respectively. The lower effective
tax rate was primarily due to certain lower state taxes and higher
tax benefits from stock-based compensation.
Second quarter, cash flows provided by operating
activities were $35.0 million, and free cash flow was $31.7
million. The $222.1 million of net working capital on June 30,
2023 included a cash balance of $66.9 million, which reflects
quarterly repayments of the revolving loan of $26.0 million and
quarterly capital expenditures and intangible assets acquired of
$8.2 million.
Ted Harris said, “The Balchem team continues to
execute well. We delivered another solid quarter which, once again,
highlights the strength of our business model. As we continue to
progress our strategic growth initiatives in 2023 and beyond, we
remain confident in our ability to deliver long-term growth.”

Non-GAAP Financial Information
In addition to disclosing financial results in
accordance with United States (U.S.) generally accepted accounting
principles (GAAP), this earnings release contains non-GAAP
financial measures that we believe are helpful in understanding and
comparing our past financial performance and our future results.
The non-GAAP financial measures in this press release include
adjusted gross margin, adjusted earnings from operations, adjusted
net earnings and the related adjusted per diluted share amounts,
EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted income tax expense, and free cash
flow. The non-GAAP financial measures disclosed by the company
exclude certain business combination accounting adjustments and
certain other items related to acquisitions, certain equity
compensation, and certain one-time or unusual transactions.
Detailed non-GAAP adjustments are described in the reconciliation
tables below and also explained in the related footnotes. These
non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered a substitute
for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance
with GAAP, and the financial results calculated in accordance with
GAAP and reconciliations from these results should be carefully
evaluated. Investors should not consider non-GAAP measures as
alternatives to the related GAAP measures.
Set forth below are reconciliations of the
non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP
financial measures.

(1)
Inventory valuation adjustment: Business combination accounting
principles require us to measure acquired inventory at fair value.
The fair value of inventory reflects the acquired company's cost of
manufacturing plus a portion of the expected profit margin. The
non-GAAP adjustment to our cost of sales excludes the expected
profit margin component that is recorded under business combination
accounting principles. We believe the adjustment is useful to
investors as an additional means to reflect cost of sales and gross
margin trends of our business. |
|
(2)
Amortization of intangible assets and finance lease: Amortization
of intangible assets and finance lease consists of amortization of
customer relationships, trademarks and trade names, developed
technology, regulatory registration costs, patents and trade
secrets, capitalized loan issuance costs, other intangibles
acquired primarily in connection with business combinations, an
intangible asset in connection with a company-wide ERP system
implementation, and one finance lease. We record expense relating
to the amortization of these intangibles and finance lease in our
GAAP financial statements. Amortization expenses for our intangible
assets and finance lease are inconsistent in amount and are
significantly impacted by the timing and valuation of an
acquisition. Consequently, our non-GAAP adjustments exclude these
expenses to facilitate an evaluation of our current operating
performance and comparisons to our past operating performance. |
|
(3)
Transaction and integration costs and unallocated legal fees:
Transaction and integration costs related to acquisitions and
divestitures are expensed in our GAAP financial statements.
Unallocated legal fees for transaction-related non-compete
agreement disputes are expensed in our GAAP financial statements.
Management excludes these items for the purposes of calculating
Adjusted EBITDA and other non-GAAP financial measures. We believe
that excluding these items from our non-GAAP financial measures is
useful to investors because these are items associated with
transactions that are inconsistent in amount and frequency causing
comparison of current and historical financial results to be
difficult. |
|
(4)
Restructuring costs: Expenses related to a reorganization of the
business. |
|
(5) Net
realized gain on foreign currency exchange forward contracts: Net
realized gain on foreign currency exchange forward contracts
related to four short-term foreign currency exchange forward
contracts with JP Morgan Chase, N.A. in connection with the Kappa
acquisition. These contracts did not qualify for hedge accounting
and the net gain was recorded as other income in our GAAP financial
statements. We believe that excluding these gains and losses from
our Non-GAAP financial measures is useful to investors because such
income or expense are inconsistent in amount and frequency causing
comparison of current and historical financial results to be
difficult. |
|
(6)
Income tax adjustment: For purposes of calculating adjusted net
earnings and adjusted diluted earnings per share, we adjust the
provision for (benefit from) income taxes to tax effect the taxable
and deductible non-GAAP adjustments described above as they have a
significant impact on our income tax (benefit) provision.
Additionally, the income tax adjustment is adjusted for the impact
of adopting ASU 2016-09, “Improvements to Employee Share-Based
Payment Accounting” and uses our non-GAAP effective rate applied to
both our GAAP earnings before income tax expense and non-GAAP
adjustments described above. See Table 3 for the calculation of our
non-GAAP effective tax rate. |
|
(7)
Impact of ASU 2016-09: The primary impact of ASU No. 2016-09,
"Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting" ("ASU
2016-09"), was the recognition during the three and six months
ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, of excess tax benefits as a
reduction to the provision for income taxes and the classification
of these excess tax benefits in operating activities in the
consolidated statement of cash flows instead of financing
activities. |
