The LGL Group Reports First Quarter 2021 Results

The LGL Group, Inc. (NYSE American: LGL) (the “Company” or “LGL”), announced its financial results for the three months ended March 31, 2021.

  • Revenues of $6.5 million declined (24.2%) compared to Q1 2020 revenues of $8.6 million
  • Operating loss of $60,000 versus income of $0.7 million for the prior year period
  • Diluted net income of $0.01 per share compared to $0.04 per share for the prior year quarter
  • Adjusted EBITDA for Q1 2021 was $0.2 million compared to $0.7 million for Q1 2020
  • Backlog was $20.4 million versus $19.8 million at December 31, 2020 and $22.6 million at March 31, 2020

The Company’s President and Chief Executive Officer, Mike Ferrantino, said, “Although we continue to feel the effects of COVID-19 on our businesses, the prospects for LGL are strong and I am privileged to have the opportunity to begin leading LGL this month, an exciting time from both an investment and operating prospective.”

Commenting on the Company’s Q1 2021 results, Bill Drafts, President and Chief Executive Officer of LGL’s main operating unit, MtronPTI, stated, “We are committed to streamlining our operations and implementing high-payback capital improvements as we manage the impact of COVID-19 on our customers, suppliers and employees. We are confident MtronPTI will emerge a stronger, more efficient company as business conditions improve.”

Financial Results Review

Revenues were $6.5 million versus $8.6 million for the first quarter of 2020, a decrease of $2.1 million, or 24.2%. Revenues were significantly impacted by the decline in the avionics market and the delay of orders from certain customers experiencing semiconductor component shortages. The comparison also reflects the pre-COVID-19 conditions in all markets during the first quarter of 2020. The backlog was $20.4 million versus $19.8 million last quarter and $22.6 million for first quarter 2020. Quarterly bookings have been improving sequentially over the last few quarters but remain substantially below pre-COVID-19 levels. Improvement in new avionics bookings started this quarter, but deliveries are not being scheduled until early next year.

Gross margins were 32.7% compared to 34.3% for the prior year quarter. Gross margins were impacted by the temporary onshoring of production to our U.S. factories after last year’s COVID-19 shutdown of India and lower avionics volume at our Yankton plant, resulting in increased production costs. Cost saving measures have been taken, but certain costs continue to be incurred to preserve manufacturing capabilities in both our India and Yankton plants.

Operating loss was $60,000 compared to income of $0.7 million for the first quarter of 2020 largely reflecting the reduced revenue and, to a lesser degree, lower margins.

Diluted earnings per share were $0.01 per share compared to $0.04 per share in the first quarter of 2020. Weighted average shares outstanding at March 31, 2021 were 5.4 million versus 5.1 million at March 31, 2020.

Quarterly adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP measure, was $0.2 million in the first quarter of 2021 versus $0.7 million in the first quarter of 2020. (See GAAP reconciliation in the Appendix.)

Balance Sheet

The Company’s strong balance sheet reflects a net cash position including marketable securities of $24.6 million at March 31, 2021 compared to $24.1 million at December 31, 2020. The Company continues to explore growth organically and through diversified merger and acquisitions and believes the relationship with the SPAC has enhanced its strategic profile in this context.

The Company’s investment in the Sponsor of the SPAC, LGL Systems Acquisition Corp. (NYSE-DFNS), is expected to realize value for shareholders. In March 2021, DFNS announced it signed a business combination agreement with IronNet Cybersecurity, Inc. (“IronNet”), an innovative leader transforming cybersecurity through Collective Defense. The combined company will be renamed “IronNet Cybersecurity, Inc.” and will be listed on the NYSE American and trade under the ticker symbol “IRNT”. The Company subscribed to a $2.7 million investment into the Sponsor in March 2021 which it funded in May. The investment will be part of the Sponsor syndication of $5.66 million organized to participate in a $125 million private placement (“PIPE”) purchase of 12,500.000 shares of DFNS Class A common stock.

Reconciliations of GAAP to Non-GAAP Measures

To supplement our consolidated financial statements presented on a GAAP (generally accepted accounting principles) basis, the Company uses certain non-GAAP measures, including Adjusted EBITDA, which we define as net income adjusted to exclude depreciation and amortization expense, interest income (expense), provision (benefit) for income taxes, stock-based compensation expense, investment income and other items we believe are discrete events which have a significant impact on comparable GAAP measures and could distort an evaluation of our normal operating performance. These adjustments to our GAAP results are made with the intent of providing both management and investors a more complete understanding of the underlying operational results and trends and our marketplace performance. The presentation of this additional information is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for net earnings or diluted earnings per share prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States.
