Wabash (NYSE: WNC), a leader in end-to-end supply chain solutions
for the transportation, logistics and infrastructure markets, today
reported results for the quarter and full year ended
December 31, 2024.
For the fourth quarter of 2024, net sales were
$416.8 million. Operating income was $3.6 million, or 0.9% of
sales. Net loss attributable to common stockholders was $1.0
million, or $(0.02) per diluted share. For the full year 2024,
revenue totaled $1.95 billion with operating loss of $356.1 million
or non-GAAP adjusted operating income of $94 million, representing
4.8% of sales. Full year net loss attributable to common
stockholders was $284.1 million, or $(6.40) per diluted share. On a
non-GAAP adjusted basis, full year net income was $54.7 million, or
$1.22 per diluted share. Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP measure that
excludes the effects of certain items, for the fourth quarter of
2024 was $21.1 million, or 5.1% of net sales, and full year
adjusted EBITDA was $162.7 million, or 8.4% of net sales.
Total Company backlog as of December 31,
2024 was approximately $1.2 billion, which represents an increase
compared to the prior quarter. Backlog expected to be shipped
within the following 12-months was $813 million as of
December 31, 2024 - a greater than $100 million increase from
the prior quarter.
“During 2024, we continued to build on our
record setting financial and strategic accomplishments of 2023 by
demonstrating improved resilience during an industry down-cycle and
maintaining a forward posture by continuing to invest in strategic
growth in a manner that's unprecedented relative to market
conditions," explained Brent Yeagy, President and Chief
Executive Officer. "With significant leadership additions
completed during 2024, our organization and our people are
positioned to sustainably grow the company's base of recurring
revenue by delivering value to our customers leveraging the
intersection between physical and digital technologies.”
Outlook
For the full year ending December 31, 2025,
the Company has issued guidance with sales in the range of $1.9
billion to $2.1 billion with a midpoint of $2.0 billion and
earnings per diluted share of $0.85 to $1.05 with a midpoint of
$0.95.
Mr. Yeagy continued, “While our backlog grew
sequentially in the fourth quarter, we expect customer orders to be
more evenly distributed throughout the year compared to typical
seasonal patterns. Consequently, we've taken a measured approach to
our initial financial outlook. It's also worth noting that the
areas of our business we anticipate the strongest performance in
2025 - Truck Bodies and Parts & Services - traditionally
operate with relatively modest backlogs and convert orders to
revenue quickly. Overall, we see 2025 as a transitional year,
paving the way for improving market conditions as well as providing
opportunity for continued advancement on our journey to increase
value for customers leveraging all facets of our expanding
portfolio and ecosystem.”

Non-GAAP Measures
In addition to disclosing financial results
calculated in accordance with United States generally accepted
accounting principles (GAAP), the financial information included in
this release contains non-GAAP financial measures, including
adjusted EBITDA, free cash flow, adjusted operating income and
margin, adjusted net income attributable to common stockholders,
adjusted diluted earnings per share, adjusted segment EBITDA, and
adjusted segment EBITDA margin. These non-GAAP measures should not
be considered a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures
and results calculated in accordance with GAAP, including net
(loss) income, and reconciliations to GAAP financial statements
should be carefully evaluated.
Adjusted EBITDA includes noncontrolling interest
& excludes loss from unconsolidated entity and is defined as
earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization,
stock-based compensation, the Missouri legal matter, impairment and
other, net, and other non-operating income and expense. Management
believes providing adjusted EBITDA is useful for investors to
understand the Company’s performance and results of operations
period to period with the exclusion of the items identified above.
Management believes the presentation of adjusted EBITDA, when
combined with the GAAP presentations of operating (loss) income and
net (loss) income, is beneficial to an investor’s understanding of
the Company’s operating performance. A reconciliation of adjusted
EBITDA to net (loss) income, the most comparable GAAP financial
measure, is included in the tables following this release.
Free cash flow is defined as net cash provided
by operating activities minus cash payments for capital
expenditures minus expenditures for revenue generating assets.
Management believes providing free cash flow is useful for
investors to understand the Company’s performance and results of
cash generation period to period with the exclusion of the item
identified above. Management believes the presentation of free cash
flow, when combined with the GAAP presentations of cash provided by
operating activities, is beneficial to an investor’s understanding
of the Company’s operating performance. A reconciliation of free
cash flow to cash provided by operating activities, the most
comparable GAAP financial measure, is included in the tables
following this release.
Adjusted operating income (loss) and margin,
non-GAAP financial measures, exclude certain costs, expenses, other
charges, gains or income that are included in the determination of
operating income (loss) under U.S. GAAP, but that management would
not consider important in evaluating the quality of the Company’s
operating results as they are not indicative of the Company’s core
operating results or may obscure trends useful in evaluating the
Company’s continuing activities. Accordingly, the Company presents
adjusted operating income (loss) and margin excluding these special
items to help investors evaluate our operating performance and
trends in our business consistent with how management evaluates
such performance and trends. Further, the Company presents adjusted
operating income (loss) and margin to provide investors with a
better understanding of the Company’s view of our results as
compared to prior periods. Adjusted operating income (loss) margin
is calculated by dividing adjusted operating income (loss) by total
net sales. A reconciliation of adjusted operating income (loss) to
operating income (loss), the most comparable GAAP financial
measure, is included in the tables following this release.
Adjusted net (loss) income attributable to
common stockholders and adjusted diluted earnings per share reflect
an adjustment for the Missouri legal matter and the related tax
effect of that adjustment. Management believes providing adjusted
measures and excluding certain items facilitates comparisons to the
Company’s prior year periods and, when combined with the GAAP
presentation of net (loss) income and diluted net (loss) income per
share, is beneficial to an investor’s understanding of the
Company’s performance. A reconciliation of adjusted net (loss)
income attributable to common stockholders and adjusted diluted
(loss) earnings per share to net (loss) income attributable to
common stockholders and diluted (loss) earnings per share, the most
comparable GAAP financial measures, are included in the tables
following this release.
Adjusted segment EBITDA and margin, a non-GAAP
financial measure, includes noncontrolling interest & excludes
loss from unconsolidated entity and is calculated by adding back
segment depreciation and amortization expense to segment operating
income, and excludes certain costs, expenses, other charges, gains
or income that are included in the determination of operating
income under GAAP, but that management would not consider important
in evaluating the quality of the Company’s segment operating
results as they are not indicative of each segment's core operating
results or may obscure trends useful in evaluating the segment's
continuing activities. Adjusted segment EBITDA Margin is calculated
by dividing Adjusted segment EBITDA by segment total net sales. A
reconciliation of adjusted segment EBITDA to income from
operations, the most comparable GAAP financial measure, is included
in the tables following this release.
Information reconciling any forward-looking
Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Operating Income, Adjusted Operating
Income Margin, Free Cash Flow, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, and Adjusted
EPS to GAAP financial measures is unavailable to us without
unreasonable effort. We cannot provide reconciliations of the above
noted forward looking non-GAAP measures to GAAP financial measures
because certain items required for such reconciliations are outside
of our control and/or cannot be reasonably predicted. Preparation
of such reconciliations would require a forward-looking balance
sheet, statement of income and statement of cash flows, prepared in
accordance with GAAP, and such forward-looking financial statements
are unavailable to us without unreasonable effort.

operating results or may obscure trends useful in evaluating the
Company’s continuing activities. Accordingly, the Company presents
adjusted operating income (loss) excluding these special items to
help investors evaluate our operating performance and trends in our
business consistent with how management evaluates such performance

1 Adjusted EBITDA includes
noncontrolling interest & excludes loss from unconsolidated
entity and is defined as earnings before interest, taxes,
depreciation, amortization, stock-based compensation, the Missouri
legal matter, impairment and other, net, and other non-operating
income and expense. Management believes providing adjusted EBITDA
is useful for investors to understand the Company’s performance and
results of operations period to period with the exclusion of the
items identified above. Management believes the presentation of
adjusted EBITDA, when combined with the GAAP presentations of
operating (loss) income and net (loss) income, is beneficial to an
investor’s understanding of the Company’s operating
performance.
2 Adjusted net (loss) income
attributable to common stockholders and adjusted diluted (loss)
earnings per share reflect an adjustment for the Missouri legal
matter and the related tax effect of that adjustment.
3 Weighted average diluted
shares outstanding for the twelve months ended December 31,
2024 differ from the GAAP presentation on the Company's
Consolidated Statement of Operations due to the Company being in a
loss position on an unadjusted basis.

1 Adjusted segment EBITDA and
margin, a non-GAAP financial measure, includes noncontrolling
interest & excludes loss from unconsolidated entity and is
calculated by adding back segment depreciation and amortization
expense to segment operating income, and excludes certain costs,
expenses, other charges, gains or income that are included in the
determination of operating income under GAAP, but that management
would not consider important in evaluating the quality of the
Company’s segment operating results as they are not indicative of
each segment's core operating results or may obscure trends useful
in evaluating the segment's continuing activities. Adjusted segment
EBITDA margin is calculated by dividing Adjusted segment EBITDA by
segment total net sales.
