TransDigm Group Reports Fiscal 2024 Fourth Quarter and Year-End Results

Cleveland, Ohio, November 7, 2024/PRNewswire/ -- TransDigm Group Incorporated (NYSE: TDG), a leading global designer, producer and supplier of highly engineered aircraft components, today reported results for the fourth quarter ended September 30, 2024.
Fourth quarter highlights include:
•Net sales of $2,185 million, up 18% from $1,852 million in the prior year's quarter;
•Net income of $468 million, up 13% from the prior year's quarter;
•Earnings per share of $5.80;
•EBITDA As Defined of $1,149 million, up 19% from $963 million in the prior year's quarter;
•EBITDA As Defined margin of 52.6%; and
•Adjusted earnings per share of $9.83, up 22% from $8.03 in the prior year's quarter.
Fiscal 2024 highlights include:
•Net sales of $7,940 million, up 21% from $6,585 million in the prior fiscal year;
•Net income of $1,715 million, up 32% from the prior fiscal year;
•Earnings per share of $25.62, up 16% from the prior fiscal year;
•EBITDA As Defined of $4,173 million, up 23% from $3,395 million in the prior fiscal year;
•EBITDA As Defined margin of 52.6%; and
•Adjusted earnings per share of $33.99, up 32% from $25.84 in the prior fiscal year.

Quarter-to-Date Results
Net sales for the quarter increased 18.0%, or $333 million, to $2,185 million from $1,852 million in the comparable quarter a year ago. Organic sales growth as a percentage of net sales was 12.2%.
Net income for the quarter increased $54 million, or 13.0%, to $468 million from $414 million in the comparable quarter a year ago. The increase in net income primarily reflects the increase in net sales described above and the application of our value-driven operating strategy. The increase was partially offset by higher interest expense, non-cash stock and deferred compensation expense, and acquisition transaction and integration-related expenses.
GAAP earnings per share were reduced in the quarter by $2.27 per share as a result of dividend equivalent
payments accrued in the fourth quarter related to the $75.00 per share dividend declared on September 19, 2024 and paid on October 18, 2024. No dividend equivalent payments were made during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023.
Adjusted net income for the quarter increased 23.9% to $570 million, or $9.83 per share, from $460 million, or $8.03 per share, in the comparable quarter a year ago.

EBITDA for the quarter increased 14.3% to $1,041 million from $911 million for the comparable quarter a year ago. EBITDA As Defined for the quarter increased 19.3% to $1,149 million compared with $963 million in the comparable quarter a year ago. EBITDA As Defined as a percentage of net sales for the quarter was 52.6% compared with 52.0% in the comparable quarter a year ago.
Acquisition Activity
As previously reported on July 31, 2024, TransDigm completed the acquisition of Raptor Scientific. Raptor Scientific is a leading global manufacturer of complex test and measurement solutions primarily serving the aerospace and defense end markets.
Financing Activity
On September 19, 2024, the Company completed the issuance of $3,000 million in new senior secured debt. The new senior secured debt issued included $1,500 million in 6.00% senior secured notes maturing January 15, 2033 and $1,500 million in Tranche L term loans maturing January 19, 2032. The Tranche L terms loans bear interest at Term Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR") plus 2.50%.

Special Dividend Activity
During the quarter, on September 19, 2024, concurrently with the $3,000 million issuance of new senior secured debt (described above), the Company’s Board of Directors authorized and declared a special cash dividend of $75.00 on each outstanding share of common stock and cash dividend equivalent payments on eligible vested options outstanding under its stock option plans. Total cash payments, funded by the combination of the $3,000 million in new senior secured debt and existing cash on hand, related to the special dividend and dividend equivalents were approximately $4,348 million. These payments were made on October 18, 2024.

Year-to-Date Results
Fiscal 2024 net sales increased 20.6%, or $1,355 million, to $7,940 million from $6,585 million in fiscal 2023. Organic sales growth as a percentage of net sales for fiscal 2024 was 16.2%.
Fiscal 2024 net income increased $416 million, or 32.0%, to $1,715 million from $1,299 million in fiscal 2023. The increase in net income primarily reflects the increase in net sales described above and the application of our value-driven operating strategy. The increase was partially offset by higher interest expense, income tax expense, non-cash stock and deferred compensation expense, and acquisition transaction and integration-related expenses.
GAAP earnings per share were reduced in fiscal 2024 and 2023 by $4.02 per share and $0.67 per share, respectively, as a result of dividend equivalent payments accrued or made during each year. As a reminder, GAAP earnings per share are reduced when TransDigm makes dividend equivalent payments pursuant to its stock option plans. These dividend equivalent payments are made during TransDigm's first fiscal quarter each year and also upon payment of any special dividends.
Fiscal 2024 adjusted net income increased 33.1% to $1,966 million, or $33.99 per share, from $1,477 million, or $25.84 per share, in fiscal 2023.
Fiscal 2024 EBITDA increased 21.1% to $3,813 million from $3,148 million in fiscal 2023. EBITDA As Defined for fiscal 2024 increased 22.9% to $4,173 million compared with $3,395 million in fiscal 2023. EBITDA As Defined as a percentage of net sales for fiscal 2024 was 52.6% compared with 51.6% in fiscal 2023.

"I am very pleased with our team's performance and the overall operating results for the fourth quarter and full year of fiscal 2024," stated Kevin Stein, TransDigm Group's President and Chief Executive Officer. "The strong fourth quarter performance resulted in surpassing the high end of our most recently issued fiscal 2024 revenue guidance and EBITDA As Defined margin guidance. Our EBITDA As Defined margin for the quarter was 52.6%, up approximately 60 basis points from the comparable prior year period. Excluding the results related to the 2024 acquisitions of SEI Industries, the CPI Electron Device Business and Raptor Scientific, our fourth quarter EBITDA As Defined margin was approximately 53.7%.
During the course of the past six months, we have deployed approximately $6.5 billion of capital across three acquisitions – SEI Industries, the CPI Electron Device Business and Raptor Scientific, and a special dividend of $75 per share. The payout of this dividend in October 2024 still leaves us with significant liquidity and financial flexibility to address any likely range of capital requirements or other opportunities. As you know, we are continuously evaluating our capital allocation options and we were pleased to return this capital to our shareholders.
As always, we remain committed to our operating strategy, value drivers and the effective management of our cost structure. We look forward to the opportunity to continue creating value for our shareholders as we move into our fiscal 2025."
Please see the attached tables for a reconciliation of net income 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 per share to adjusted earnings per share for the periods discussed in this press release.
Fiscal 2025 Outlook
Mr. Stein stated, “We are issuing full year fiscal 2025 guidance today, which reflects our current expectations for the year. We were very pleased to see the further recovery of our commercial markets in our fiscal 2024, alongside strong growth in the defense market. We expect continued growth in each of our primary end markets – commercial OEM, commercial aftermarket and defense – in our fiscal 2025." The commercial OEM guidance contains an appropriate level of risk around the expected OEM production build rates for fiscal 2025.
TransDigm now expects fiscal 2025 financial guidance to be as follows:
•Net sales are anticipated to be in the range of $8,750 million to $8,950 million compared with $7,940 million in fiscal 2024, an increase of 11.5% at the midpoint;
•Net income is anticipated to be in the range of $1,887 million to $1,999 million compared with $1,715 million in fiscal 2024, an increase of 13.3% at the midpoint;
•Earnings per share is expected to be in the range of $31.47 to $33.39 per share based upon weighted average shares outstanding of 58.4 million shares, compared with $25.62 per share in fiscal 2024, which is an increase of 26.6% at the midpoint;
•EBITDA As Defined is anticipated to be in the range of $4,615 million to $4,755 million compared with $4,173 million in fiscal 2024, an increase of 12.3% at the midpoint (corresponding to an EBITDA As Defined margin guide of approximately 52.9% for fiscal 2025);
•Adjusted earnings per share is expected to be in the range of $35.36 to $37.28 per share compared with $33.99 per share in fiscal 2024, an increase of 6.9% at the midpoint; and
3

•Fiscal 2025 outlook is based on the following market growth assumptions:
◦Commercial OEM revenue growth in the mid single-digit percentage range;
◦Commercial aftermarket revenue growth in the high single-digit to low double-digit percentage range; and
◦Defense revenue growth in the high single-digit percentage range.
Please see the attached Table 6 for a reconciliation of EBITDA, EBITDA As Defined to net income and reported earnings per share to adjusted earnings per share guidance midpoint estimated for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2025.

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 or deferred compensation plans, foreign currency gains and losses, acquisition-integration costs, acquisition transaction-related expenses, and refinancing costs. Acquisition transaction and integration-related expenses represent costs incurred to integrate acquired businesses into TD Group’s operations; facility relocation costs and other acquisition-related costs; transaction and valuation-related costs for acquisitions comprising deal fees, legal, financial and tax due diligence expenses; and amortization expense of inventory step-up recorded in connection with the purchase accounting of acquired businesses. TransDigm Group defines adjusted net income as net income 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 or deferred compensation plans, 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 outstanding shares for basic and diluted earnings per share. For more information regarding the computation of EBITDA, EBITDA As Defined, 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.
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.

For the thirteen week periods and fiscal years ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, the Tax adjustment represents the tax effect of the adjustments at the applicable effective tax rate, as well as the impact on the effective tax rate when excluding the excess tax benefits on stock option exercises. Stock compensation expense is excluded from adjusted net income and therefore we have excluded the impact that the excess tax benefits on stock option exercises have on the effective tax rate for determining adjusted net income.
