TransDigm Group Reports Fiscal 2021 Third Quarter Results and Announces Transition of W. Nicholas Howley to Chairman

Cleveland, Ohio, August 10, 2021/PRNewswire/ -- TransDigm Group Incorporated (NYSE: TDG), a leading global designer, producer and supplier of highly engineered aircraft components, today reported results for the third quarter ended July 3, 2021, which continue to be unfavorably impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. TransDigm also announced today that W. Nicholas (Nick) Howley, previously TransDigm's Executive Chairman, transitioned to non-executive Chairman of the Board of Directors effective August 6, 2021. More information regarding the transition is provided later in this release.
Third quarter highlights include:
•Net sales of $1,218 million, up 19% from $1,022 million in the prior year's quarter;
•Income from continuing operations of $317 million, up from a loss from continuing operations of $(5) million;
•Earnings per share from continuing operations of $5.43, up from a loss per share from continuing operations of $(0.09);
•EBITDA As Defined of $559 million, up 32% from $424 million;
•EBITDA As Defined margin of 45.9%, representing sequential improvement;
•Adjusted earnings per share of $3.33, up 116% from $1.54 in the prior year's quarter; and
•Strong operating cash flow generation of $252 million.

Fiscal 2021 financial guidance remains suspended at this time.
Quarter-to-Date Results
Net sales for the quarter increased 19.2%, or $196 million, to $1,218 million from $1,022 million in the comparable quarter a year ago. Organic sales growth was 15.1%. Net acquisition and divestiture sales growth was $42 million over the comparable quarter a year ago.

Income from continuing operations for the quarter increased $322 million to $317 million from a loss from continuing operations of $(5) million in the comparable quarter a year ago. The increase in income from continuing operations primarily reflects the increase in net sales described above, lower effective tax rate, the net gain on sale recognized as a result of the divestitures completed during the third quarter of fiscal 2021, and lower COVID-19 restructuring costs.
Adjusted net income for the quarter increased 120.5% to $194 million, or $3.33 per share, from $88 million, or $1.54 per share, in the comparable quarter a year ago.
EBITDA for the quarter increased 56.3% to $572 million from $366 million for the comparable quarter a year ago. EBITDA As Defined for the quarter increased 31.8% to $559 million compared with $424 million in the comparable quarter a year ago. EBITDA As Defined as a percentage of net sales for the quarter was 45.9%, representing sequential improvement versus the second fiscal quarter of 2021.

'Trends in the commercial aerospace industry are encouraging and have increasingly shown signs of recovery in recent months with vaccination rates expanding and air traffic improving, especially in certain domestic markets. We also saw another quarter of sequential improvement in our commercial aftermarket revenues,' stated Kevin Stein, TransDigm Group's President and Chief Executive Officer. 'Additionally, I am very pleased that we continue to sequentially expand our EBITDA As Defined margin as a result of continued recovery in our commercial aftermarket revenues as well as careful management of our cost structure and focus on our operating strategy in this challenging commercial environment.'
The current quarter effective tax rate was (30.0)% compared to 113.5% for the comparable period of fiscal 2020. The effective tax rate in the current quarter was positively impacted by the release of the valuation allowance applicable to the net interest deduction limitation carryforward and the discrete impact of excess tax benefits associated with share-based payments. For the full 2021 fiscal year, the Company expects the effective tax rate to be in the range of 0% to 3% and the adjusted tax rate to be in the range of 18% to 20%.
On April 27, 2021, TransDigm completed the divestiture of the Technical Airborne Components business ('TAC') to Searchlight Capital Partners for approximately $40 million in cash.
On June 30, 2021, TransDigm completed the divestiture of its ScioTeq and TREALITY Simulation Visual Systems ('ScioTeq and TREALITY') businesses to OpenGate Capital for approximately $200 million in cash. ScioTeq and TREALITY were acquired by TransDigm in March 2019 as part of the Esterline Technologies acquisition.
The net gain on sale recognized during the third quarter of fiscal 2021 as a result of the ScioTeq and TREALITY and TAC divestitures was approximately $68 million.
The financial results of the ScioTeq and TREALITY and TAC businesses for all periods under TransDigm's ownership will remain classified as continuing operations in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
Year-to-Date Results
Net sales for the thirty-nine week period ended July 3, 2021 declined 10.5%, or $411 million, to $3,519 million from $3,930 million in the comparable period a year ago.
Income from continuing operations for the thirty-nine week period ended July 3, 2021 was $473 million, a decrease of 14.3% compared to $552 million in the comparable period a year ago. The decrease in income from continuing operations primarily reflects the decline in net sales described above, along with higher non-cash stock compensation expense and interest expense, partially offset by a lower effective tax rate and the net gain on sale recognized as a result of the divestitures completed during the third quarter of fiscal 2021.
GAAP earnings per share were reduced in fiscal 2021 and 2020 by $1.24 per share and $3.22 per share, respectively, as a result of dividend equivalent payments made during each year. As a reminder, GAAP earnings per share are reduced when TransDigm makes dividend equivalent payments pursuant to the Company's stock option plans. These dividend equivalent payments are made during the Company's first fiscal quarter each year and also upon payment of any special dividends.
Adjusted net income for the thirty-nine week period ended July 3, 2021 decreased 30.7% to $460 million, or $7.88 per share, from $664 million, or $11.57 per share, in the comparable period a year ago.

EBITDA for the thirty-nine week period ended July 3, 2021 decreased 13.6% to $1,414 million from $1,637 million for the comparable period a year ago. EBITDA As Defined for the period decreased 12.8% to $1,552 million compared with $1,780 million in the comparable period a year ago. EBITDA As Defined as a percentage of net sales for the current period was 44.1%.
Please see the attached tables for a reconciliation of income (loss) from continuing operations to EBITDA, EBITDA As Defined, and adjusted net income; a reconciliation of net cash provided by operating activities to EBITDA and EBITDA As Defined, and a reconciliation of earnings (loss) per share to adjusted earnings per share for the periods discussed in this press release.
Fiscal 2021 Outlook
Given the considerable uncertainty around the extent and duration of business disruptions related to the COVID-19 pandemic, and how that will continue to impact operations, the Company will not provide fiscal year 2021 guidance at this time.
Transition of W. Nicholas Howley from Executive Chairman to Non-Executive Chairman
TransDigm also announced today the transition of Mr. Howley from TransDigm's Executive Chairman to Chairman of the Board of Directors, effective August 6, 2021.
As Chairman and Chair of the Executive Committee, Mr. Howley will continue to focus his efforts primarily on matters relating to capital allocation, mergers and acquisitions, corporate strategy, and leadership of the Board of Directors.
This transition timeline is accelerated by roughly one year, as Mr. Howley's previous employment agreement anticipated his transition from Executive Chairman to Chairman in December 2022. Mr. Howley intends to continue in the Chairman role through at least fiscal 2024, which is the same commitment time period as his previous employment agreement.
Mr. Howley stated, 'The duration of my time commitment with TransDigm will continue through at least 2024 - unchanged by this action. The orderly transition outlined in my previous employment agreement is proceeding well and ahead of schedule, and after three years, now seems like an appropriate time to move into the next phase. Over the past three years, Kevin and his team have dealt well with many significant issues, including both the highly successful integration of Esterline Technologies, our largest acquisition to date, and the unprecedented COVID-19 situation. I look forward to continuing as Chairman of the Board and working with Kevin on TransDigm's consistent strategy of creating long term intrinsic value for our shareholders. As part of this effort, I will maintain a particular focus on capital allocation, mergers and acquisitions, and major strategic issues.'
'I have benefited tremendously as the CEO of TransDigm from the overlap with Nick in his Executive Chairman role,' stated Kevin Stein, TransDigm Group's President and Chief Executive Officer. 'I look forward to a continuing partnership with Nick in his role as Chairman and to continuing together the exceptional value generating strategy that has been the cornerstone of this organization since Nick and Doug Peacock founded TransDigm in 1993.'

Non-GAAP Supplemental Information
EBITDA, EBITDA As Defined, EBITDA As Defined Margin, adjusted net income and adjusted earnings per share are non-GAAP financial measures presented in this press release as supplemental disclosures to net income and reported results. TransDigm Group defines EBITDA as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization and defines EBITDA As Defined as EBITDA plus certain non-operating items recorded as corporate expenses, including non-cash compensation charges incurred in connection with TransDigm Group's stock incentive plans, restructuring costs related to TransDigm Group's cost reduction measures in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, foreign currency gains and losses, acquisition-integration costs, acquisition transaction-related expenses, and refinancing costs. TransDigm Group defines adjusted net income as net income (loss) plus purchase accounting backlog amortization expense, effects from the sale on businesses, non-cash compensation charges incurred in connection with TransDigm Group's stock incentive plans, restructuring costs related to TransDigm Group's cost reduction measures in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, foreign currency gains and losses, acquisition-integration costs, acquisition transaction-related expenses, and refinancing costs. EBITDA As Defined Margin represents EBITDA As Defined as a percentage of net sales. TransDigm Group defines adjusted diluted earnings per share as adjusted net income divided by the total shares for basic and diluted earnings per share. For more information regarding the computation of EBITDA, EBITDA As Defined and adjusted net income and adjusted earnings per share, please see the attached financial tables.
TransDigm Group presents these non-GAAP financial measures because it believes that they are useful indicators of its operating performance. TransDigm Group believes that EBITDA is useful to investors because it is frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties to measure operating performance among companies with different capital structures, effective tax rates and tax attributes, capitalized asset values and employee compensation structures, all of which can vary substantially from company to company. In addition, analysts, rating agencies and others use EBITDA to evaluate a company's ability to incur and service debt. EBITDA As Defined is used to measure TransDigm Inc.'s compliance with the financial covenant contained in its credit facility. TransDigm Group's management also uses EBITDA As Defined to review and assess its operating performance, to prepare its annual budget and financial projections and to review and evaluate its management team in connection with employee incentive programs. Moreover, TransDigm Group's management uses EBITDA As Defined to evaluate acquisitions and as a liquidity measure. In addition, TransDigm Group's management uses adjusted net income as a measure of comparable operating performance between time periods and among companies as it is reflective of changes in pricing decisions, cost controls and other factors that affect operating performance.
5

None of EBITDA, EBITDA As Defined, EBITDA As Defined Margin, adjusted net income or adjusted earnings per share is a measurement of financial performance under U.S. GAAP and such financial measures should not be considered as an alternative to net income, operating income, earnings per share, cash flows from operating activities or other measures of performance determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP. In addition, TransDigm Group's calculation of these non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to the calculation of similarly titled measures reported by other companies.
Although we use EBITDA and EBITDA As Defined as measures to assess the performance of our business and for the other purposes set forth above, the use of these non-GAAP financial measures as analytical tools has limitations, and you should not consider any of them in isolation, or as a substitute for analysis of our results of operations as reported in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Some of these limitations are:
neither EBITDA nor EBITDA As Defined reflects the significant interest expense, or the cash requirements, necessary to service interest payments on our indebtedness;
although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized will often have to be replaced in the future, and neither EBITDA nor EBITDA As Defined reflects any cash requirements for such replacements;
the omission of the substantial amortization expense associated with our intangible assets further limits the usefulness of EBITDA and EBITDA As Defined;
neither EBITDA nor EBITDA As Defined includes the payment of taxes, which is a necessary element of our operations; and
EBITDA As Defined excludes the cash expense we have incurred to integrate acquired businesses into our operations, which is a necessary element of certain of our acquisitions.
