Additionally, on February 12, 2024, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a new stock repurchase program that allows for the repurchase of up to $500 million of the Company’s common stock over the next 24 months, replacing the remaining balance on the previous program.
  • On December 13th, the Company completed a $30 million minority investment in Wallbox (NYSE: WBX), a global leader in smart electric vehicle (EV) charging and energy management solutions.
  • The Company is initiating its full-year 2024 net sales growth guidance to be approximately 3 to 7% as compared to the prior year on an as-reported basis, which includes a slight favorable impact from foreign currency. Adjusted EBITDA margin, before deducting for non-controlling interests, is expected to be approximately 16.5 to 17.5%.

Full-Year 2023 Highlights

  • Net sales declined 12% to $4.02 billion during 2023 as compared to $4.56 billion in 2022. Core sales, which excludes both the impact of acquisitions and foreign currency, decreased approximately 14%.
    • Residential product sales declined 29% to $2.06 billion as compared to $2.91 billion last year.
    • C&I product sales grew 19% to $1.49 billion as compared to $1.26 billion in the prior year.

  • Adjusted net income attributable to the Company, as defined in the accompanying reconciliation schedules, was $335 million, or $5.40 per share, as compared to $539 million, or $8.33 per share, in 2022.
  • Adjusted EBITDA before deducting for noncontrolling interests, as defined in the accompanying reconciliation schedules, for 2023 was $638 million, or 15.9% of net sales, as compared to $825 million, or 18.1% of net sales, last year.
  • Cash flow from operations was a record $522 million as compared to $59 million in the prior year. Free cash flow, as defined in the accompanying reconciliation schedules, was $396 million as compared to $(24) million for 2022.
  • The Company repurchased approximately 2.2 million shares of its common stock during 2023 for approximately $252 million.

“Our fourth quarter results demonstrate continued improvement in operating performance resulting in strong margin expansion and cash flow generation as we exited the year,” said Aaron Jagdfeld, President and Chief Executive Officer. “Despite fewer power outages in the fourth quarter, home standby generator shipments returned to year-over-year growth, and activations reached a quarterly record. Global C&I product sales were approximately flat as compared to the prior year with telecom and rental markets experiencing cyclical declines. Additionally, we generated record cash flow in the quarter which allowed us to enhance shareholder value through continued share repurchases and investments to accelerate our Powering A Smarter World enterprise strategy.”

Additional Fourth Quarter 2023 Consolidated Highlights

Gross profit margin was 36.5% as compared to 32.7% in the prior-year fourth quarter. The increase in gross margin was primarily driven by favorable product mix, production efficiencies, and lower raw material and logistics costs.

Operating expenses increased $1.8 million, or 0.8%, as compared to the fourth quarter of 2022. The increase in operating expenses was primarily driven by increased employee and marketing costs.

Provision for income taxes for the current year quarter was $30.0 million, or an effective tax rate of 23.7%, as compared to $13.6 million, or a 15.5% effective tax rate, for the prior year. The increase in effective tax rate was primarily driven by discrete tax benefits in the prior year quarter that did not repeat in the current year.

Cash flow from operations was $316.9 million during the fourth quarter, as compared to $100.9 million in the prior year. Free cash flow, as defined in the accompanying reconciliation schedules, was $266.4 million as compared to $80.3 million in the fourth quarter of 2022. The significant improvement in free cash flow was primarily due to a $144 million reduction in inventory during the quarter, together with higher operating earnings. This increase was partially offset by higher capital expenditures during the quarter.

Business Segment Results

Domestic Segment

Domestic segment total sales (including inter-segment sales) increased 1% to $891.0 million as compared to $880.6 million in the prior year. The slight increase in domestic sales was driven primarily by higher home standby generator shipments, as well as an increase in C&I product shipments to industrial distributors and direct customers for “beyond standby” applications. This growth was partially offset by lower portable generator sales and a decline in C&I product shipments to telecom and national rental equipment customers.

Adjusted EBITDA for the segment was $192.2 million, or 21.6% of domestic segment total sales, as compared to $144.1 million in the prior year, or 16.4% of total sales. This margin improvement was primarily driven by favorable sales mix and lower input costs.

International Segment

International segment total sales (including inter-segment sales) decreased 13% to $190.1 million as compared to $219.2 million in the prior year quarter, including an approximate 7% sales growth contribution from foreign currency and acquisitions. The approximately 20% core total sales decline for the segment was primarily driven by lower inter-segment sales related to softness in the telecom market and lower portable generator shipments in Europe.

Adjusted EBITDA for the segment, before deducting for noncontrolling interests, was $20.4 million, or 10.7% of international segment total sales, as compared to $29.5 million, or 13.5% of total sales, in the prior year. This margin decline was primarily driven by unfavorable sales mix and reduced operating leverage on lower shipments.

2024 Outlook

The Company is initiating guidance for full-year 2024 that anticipates a return to net sales growth as compared to the prior year. This growth is expected to be driven primarily by residential product sales growth in the mid-teens range, led by shipments of home standby generators and residential energy technology products. Partially offsetting this projected strength, C&I product sales are expected to decline at a rate of approximately 10%, primarily due to weakness with certain direct telecom, rental, and “beyond standby” customers. As a result of these factors, full-year net sales are expected to increase between 3 to 7% as compared to the prior year, which includes a slight favorable impact from foreign currency.

Additionally, the Company expects net income margin, before deducting for non-controlling interests, to be approximately 6.5 to 7.5% for the full-year 2024. The corresponding adjusted EBITDA margin is expected to be approximately 16.5 to 17.5%.

The Company expects to maintain strong levels of operating and free cash flow generation for the full year, with free cash flow conversion from adjusted net income expected to be approximately 100%.

Mr. Jagdfeld concluded, “In 2024, we expect to return to consolidated sales growth and year-over-year margin expansion for the full year period while also continuing to invest for future growth. Importantly, the mega-trends that support these expectations as well as our robust long-term growth outlook remain firmly intact. As reliance on electricity continues to increase and supply-demand imbalances remain a challenge for grid operators, we will continue to execute our strategic plan to lead the evolution to more resilient, efficient, and sustainable energy solutions.”

Forward-looking Information

Certain statements contained in this news release, as well as other information provided from time to time by Generac Holdings Inc. or its employees, may contain forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements give Generac's current expectations and projections relating to the Company's financial condition, results of operations, plans, objectives, future performance and business. You can identify forward-looking statements by the fact that they do not relate strictly to historical or current facts. These statements may include words such as "anticipate," "estimate," "expect," "forecast," "project," "plan," "intend," "believe," "confident," "may," "should," "can have," "likely," "future," “optimistic” and other words and terms of similar meaning in connection with any discussion of the timing or nature of future operating or financial performance or other events.

Any such forward-looking statements are not guarantees of performance or results, and involve risks, uncertainties (some of which are beyond the Company's control) and assumptions. Although Generac believes any forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions, you should be aware that many factors could affect Generac's actual financial results and cause them to differ materially from those anticipated in any forward-looking statements, including:

  • frequency and duration of power outages impacting demand for our products;
  • fluctuations in cost and quality of raw materials required to manufacture our products;
  • availability of both labor and key components from our manufacturing operations and global supply chain, including single-sourced components and contract manufacturers, needed in producing our products;
  • the possibility that the expected synergies, efficiencies and cost savings of our acquisitions will not be realized, or will not be realized within the expected time period;
  • the risk that our acquisitions will not be integrated successfully;
  • the impact on our results of possible fluctuations in interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates, commodities, product mix, logistics costs and regulatory tariffs;
  • difficulties we may encounter as our business expands globally or into new markets;
  • our dependence on our distribution network;
  • our ability to remain competitive by investing in, developing or adapting to changing technologies and manufacturing techniques, as well as protecting our intellectual property rights;
  • loss of our key management and employees;
  • increase in product and other liability claims or recalls;
  • failures or security breaches of our networks, information technology systems, or connected products;
  • changes in laws and regulations regarding environmental, health and safety, product compliance, or international trade that affect our products, operations, or customer demand;
  • significant legal proceedings, claims, lawsuits or government investigations; and
  • changes in durable goods spending by consumers and businesses or other macroeconomic conditions, impacting demand for our products.

Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, Generac's actual results may vary in material respects from those projected in any forward-looking statements. In the current environment, some of the above factors have materialized and may cause actual results to vary from these forward-looking statements. A detailed discussion of these and other factors that may affect future results is contained in Generac's filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), particularly in the Risk Factors section of the 2022 Annual Report on Form 10-K and in its periodic reports on Form 10-Q. Stockholders, potential investors and other readers should consider these factors carefully in evaluating the forward-looking statements.

Any forward-looking statement made by Generac in this press release speaks only as of the date on which it is made. Generac undertakes no obligation to update any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future developments or otherwise, except as may be required by law.

Non-GAAP Financial Metrics

Core Sales

The Company references core sales to further supplement Generac's condensed consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Core sales excludes the impact of acquisitions and fluctuations in foreign currency translation. Management believes that core sales facilitates easier and more meaningful comparison of net sales performance with prior and future periods.

Adjusted EBITDA

To supplement our condensed consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP, the Company provides the computation of Adjusted EBITDA attributable to the Company, which is defined as net income before noncontrolling interest adjusted for the following items: interest expense, depreciation expense, amortization of intangible assets, income tax expense, certain non-cash gains and losses including purchase accounting and contingent consideration adjustments, share-based compensation expense, losses on extinguishment of debt, certain transaction costs and credit facility fees, business optimization expenses, certain specific provisions, and adjusted EBITDA attributable to noncontrolling interests, as set forth in the reconciliation table below.  

Adjusted Net Income

To further supplement Generac's condensed consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP, the Company provides a summary to show the computation of adjusted net income attributable to the Company. Adjusted net income attributable to the Company is defined as net income before noncontrolling interests adjusted for the following items: amortization of intangible assets, amortization of deferred financing costs and original issue discount related to the Company's debt, intangible impairment charges, certain transaction costs and other purchase accounting adjustments, losses on extinguishment of debt, business optimization and other charges, certain specific provisions, certain other non-cash gains and losses, and adjusted net income attributable to non-controlling interests.

Free Cash Flow

In addition, we reference free cash flow to further supplement Generac's condensed consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Free cash flow is defined as net cash provided by operating activities, plus proceeds from beneficial interests in securitization transactions, less expenditures for property and equipment, and is intended to be a measure of operational cash flow taking into account additional capital expenditure investment into the business.

The presentation of this additional information is not meant to be considered in isolation of, or as a substitute for, results prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Please see the accompanying Reconciliation Schedules and our SEC filings for additional discussion of the basis for Generac's reporting of Non-GAAP financial measures, which includes why the Company believes these measures provide useful information to investors and the additional purposes for which management uses the non-GAAP financial information.
