Xerium Technologies, Inc. (NYSE:XRM), a leading global provider
of industrial consumable products and services, today reported
fourth quarter and full year 2017 financial results.
Mark Staton, President and Chief Executive Officer said, “2017
was a solid year of improvement in operating results, driven by
market success of our growth initiatives and supported by improved
end-market stability. Higher sales combined with greater
organizational focus and improved execution enabled full-year
adjusted EBITDA growth of 5%. Discipline and focus also led to
impressive fourth quarter free cash generation in excess of $25
million.”
Staton continued, “Looking to the year ahead, we see a
continuation of the improved end-market environment, which coupled
with lower cash restructuring and global cash tax requirements
positions the company to meaningfully execute on its debt reduction
plans in 2018.”
Quarterly Consolidated
Results
Q4 net sales were $122.4 million, an increase of 5.0%
year-over-year on a constant currency basis. The increase was
largely due to a 14.0% increase in roll sales related primarily to
stronger volumes in North America and Europe. Q4 machine clothing
sales were down 0.8%, at constant currency rates, as negative
product and customer mix was partially offset by improved sales
volume. Order backlogs are down 2% to $168.6 million from Q4 2016
but up 1% from Q3 2017. Table 1 summarizes Q4 net sales and the
effect of currency translation rates.
Q4 2017 gross profit was $44.1 million, or 36.1% of net sales,
compared to $41.9 million, or 37.1% of net sales, in Q4 2016. Rolls
and service gross margin increased to 33.5% in Q4 2017, from a
gross margin of 31.4% in Q4 2016. The increase was primarily due to
production efficiencies in North America. Machine clothing gross
margin declined to 37.9% in Q4 2017 from 40.6% in Q4 2016. The
decline in machine clothing gross margin was primarily due to
unfavorable product and customer mix and negative overhead
absorption as inventory levels were reduced from a temporary build
up earlier in the year.
SG&A expenses (including Selling, G&A and R&D
expenses) were $30.2 million, or 24.6% of net sales, in Q4 2017,
versus $30.9 million, or 27.3% of net sales, in Q4 2016. The
decrease in SG&A expenses was primarily attributable to savings
achieved through the Company’s cost-out initiatives.
Q4 2017 basic loss per share was $(0.58) versus Q4 2016 of
$(0.55), due to higher restructuring costs and tax expense,
partially offset by improved operating performance.
GAAP operating income in Q4 2017 was $9.6 million, or 7.8% of
net sales, an increase of 8.5% compared to Q4 2016 operating income
of $8.8 million, or 7.8% of net sales. Q4 2017 adjusted EBITDA
improved 11.3% to $22.7 million, or 18.6% of net sales, compared to
$20.4 million, or 18.0% of net sales in 2016. In addition to
interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, adjusted EBITDA
excludes expenses related to the Company’s restructuring
activities, plant start-up costs, stock based compensation,
unrealized foreign currency gains and losses and certain
non-recurring expenses. For a full reconciliation, refer to Table
5.
Cash taxes were $1.2 million in Q4 2017. Full year 2017 cash
taxes were $9.7 million. Cash taxes are primarily impacted by
income the Company earns in tax-paying jurisdictions relative to
income it earns in non-tax-paying jurisdictions, primarily the
United States. The Company expects the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, which
was enacted at the end of 2017, to be cash neutral in 2017. Going
forward, while the benefit of corporate interest deductions will be
limited, the Company will begin to utilize its historic U.S. net
operating loss carryforwards and the effects will remain cash
neutral into the mid-2020s.
The Company generated GAAP operating cash flow of $25.8 million
and free cash flow of $25.8 million during Q4 2017. Net debt was
$504.7 million at the end of Q4 2017 compared to $527.9 million at
the end of Q3 2017 (see Table 7 for a reconciliation to total
debt). The Company’s net debt leverage ratio decreased from 5.4x at
the end of Q3 2017 to 5.0x at December 31, 2017. The Company plans
to utilize its free cash flow to pay down debt and de-lever over
the remainder of its debt maturities.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL
MEASURES
This press release includes measures of performance that differ
from the Company’s financial results as reported under generally
accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). Management of the Company
uses supplementary non-GAAP measures, including EBITDA, free cash
flow, net debt and adjusted EBITDA, internally to assist in
evaluating its liquidity and financial and operational performance.
Therefore, the Company believes these non-GAAP measures may also be
useful to investors and financial analysts. EBITDA and free cash
flow are specifically used in evaluating the ability to service
indebtedness and to fund ongoing capital expenditures. Net debt
presents a view of the overall change in leverage from quarter to
quarter. Adjusted EBITDA excludes certain items the Company does
not believe to be indicative of on-going business trends in order
to better analyze historical and future business trends on a
consistent basis. EBITDA, free cash flow, net debt and adjusted
EBITDA should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for
net income (loss), net cash (used in) provided by operating
activities or total debt.
For additional information regarding non-GAAP financial measures
and a reconciliation of such measures to the most comparable
financial measures under GAAP, please see the applicable tables
within this press release. In addition, the information in this
press release should be read in conjunction with the corresponding
exhibits, financial statements and footnotes contained in our
Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017
filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 28,
2018 and our presentation that will accompany our conference call
this evening.

EBITDA AND ADJUSTED
EBITDA
EBITDA is defined as net income (loss) before interest expense,
income tax provision (benefit) and depreciation (including non-cash
impairment charges) and amortization.
“Adjusted EBITDA” means, with respect to any period, the total
of (A) the consolidated net income for such period, plus (B)
without duplication, to the extent that any of the following were
deducted in computing such consolidated net income (loss) for such
period: (i) provision for taxes based on income or profits,
including, without limitation, federal, state, provincial,
franchise and similar taxes, including any penalties and interest
relating to any tax examinations, (ii) consolidated interest
expense, (iii) consolidated depreciation and amortization expense,
(iv) reserves for inventory in connection with plant closures, (v)
consolidated operational restructuring costs, (vi) noncash charges
resulting from the application of purchase accounting, including
push-down accounting, (vii) non-cash expenses resulting from the
granting of common stock, stock options, restricted stock or
restricted stock unit awards under equity compensation programs
solely with respect to common stock, and cash expenses for
compensation mandatorily applied to purchase common stock, (viii)
non-cash items relating to a change in or adoption of accounting
policies, (ix) non-cash expenses relating to pension or benefit
arrangements, (x) expenses incurred as a result of the repurchase,
redemption or retention of common stock earned under equity
compensation programs solely in order to make withholding tax
payments, (xi) amortization or write-offs of deferred financing
costs, (xii) any non-cash losses resulting from mark to market
hedging obligations (to the extent the cash impact resulting from
such loss has not been realized in such period), (xiii) unrealized
foreign currency losses and (xiv) other non-cash losses or charges
(excluding, however, any non-cash loss or charge which represents
an accrual of, or a reserve for, a cash disbursement in a future
period), minus (C) without duplication, to the extent any of the
following were included in computing consolidated net income (loss)
for such period, (i) unrealized foreign currency gains and (ii)
non-cash gains with respect to the items described in clauses (vi),
(vii), (ix), (xi), (xii) and xiv (other than, in the case of clause
(xiv), any such gain to the extent that it represents a reversal of
an accrual of, or reserve for, a cash disbursement in a future
period) of clause (B) above and (iii) provisions for tax benefits
based on income or profits. Notwithstanding the foregoing, adjusted
EBITDA, as defined and calculated below, may not be comparable to
similarly titled measurements used by other companies.
Consolidated net income (loss) is defined as
net income (loss) determined on a consolidated basis in accordance
with GAAP; provided, however, that the following, without
duplication, shall be excluded in determining consolidated net
income (loss): (i) any net after-tax extraordinary or non-recurring
gains, losses or expenses (less all fees and expenses relating
thereto), (ii) the cumulative effect of changes in accounting
principles, (iii) any fees and expenses incurred during such period
in connection with the issuance or repayment of indebtedness, any
refinancing transaction or amendment or modification of any debt
instrument, in each case and (iv) any cancellation of indebtedness
income. Table 5 provides a reconciliation from net income (loss),
which is the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, to
EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA.

FORWARD-LOOKING
STATEMENTS
This press release contains forward-looking statements. The
words “will,” “believe,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,”
“anticipate,” “goals,” variations of such words, and similar
expressions identify forward-looking statements, but their absence
does not mean that the statement is not forward-looking. The
forward-looking statements in this release include statements
regarding our anticipated cash restructuring and cash tax
requirements and debt reduction plans. Forward-looking statements
are not guarantees of future performance, and actual results may
vary materially from the results expressed or implied in such
statements. Differences may result from actions taken by us, as
well as from risks and uncertainties beyond our control. These
risks and uncertainties include the following items: (1) we may not
realize the financial performance we are projecting; (2) our
expected sales performance and our backlog of sales may not be
fully realized; (3) our cost reduction efforts, including our
restructuring activities, may not have the positive impacts we
anticipate; (4) our plans to develop and market new products,
enhance operational efficiencies and reduce costs may not be
successful; (5) market improvement in our industry may occur more
slowly than we anticipate, may stall or may not occur at all; (6)
variations in demand for our products, including our new products,
could negatively affect our revenues and profitability; (7) our
manufacturing facilities may be required to quickly increase or
decrease production, which could negatively affect our production
facilities, customer order lead time, product quality, labor
relations or gross margin; and (8) the other risks and
uncertainties discussed elsewhere in this press release, our Annual
Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017 filed on
February 28, 2018 and our other SEC filings. If any of these risks
or uncertainties materialize, or if our underlying assumptions
prove to be incorrect, actual results may vary significantly from
what we projected. Any forward-looking statement in this press
release reflects our current views with respect to future events.
Except as required by law, we assume no obligation to publicly
update or revise these forward-looking statements for any reason,
whether as a result of new information, future events, or
otherwise. As discussed above, we are subject to substantial risks
and uncertainties related to current economic conditions, and we
encourage investors to refer to our SEC filings for additional
information. Copies of these filings are available from the SEC and
in the investor relations section of our website at
