Perma-Pipe International Holdings, Inc. Announces Fourth Quarter and Fiscal 2022 Financial Results

  • The Company generated net sales of $36.4 million for the quarter and $142.6 million for the year
  • Income before income taxes of $4.1 million for the quarter and $9.6 million for the year
  • Net income of $3.2 million for the quarter and $5.9 million for the year
  • Backlog of $38.5 million at January 31, 2023

Perma-Pipe International Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ: PPIH) announced today financial results for the fourth quarter and 2022 fiscal year ended January 31, 2023.

"Revenues for the fourth quarter were $36.4 million, $2.7 million below the same quarter last year, and net income of $3.2 million was an increase of $0.2 million compared to the same quarter of 2021. For the year ended January 31, 2023, revenues of $142.6 million were $4.0 million higher than the prior year. The resulting net income of $5.9 million was $0.1 million lower than the prior year. This decrease occurs after a non-cash charge of $0.9 million for the termination of a pension plan in 2022," noted President and CEO David Mansfield.

“While revenue for the year increased only 3%, pre-tax income before the pension plan charge increased by 25% after improved margins were achieved,” Mr. Mansfield continued.

"We continued to see growth in business activity in our markets during 2022. A buoyant oil and gas market in Canada that began in 2021 continued through last year as did increased infrastructure spending in Saudi Arabia. We expect these markets to continue to remain strong. In addition, our new product offerings in Egypt and the U.A.E. resulted in improved margins during 2022, and we will continue to pursue more opportunities in these markets,” noted Mr. Mansfield.

"We have been executing our strategic plans, as demonstrated by the recent approval of our joint venture with Gulf Insulation Group (GIG) and the relocation of our U.A.E. operations to a new plant in Abu Dhabi. The joint venture with GIG will better position us to participate in the Saudi Arabian development plans, and the relocation to Abu Dhabi brings us closer to our customers in the oil and gas industry and provides us with a more efficient, state of the art facility,” Mr. Mansfield concluded.

Fourth Quarter Fiscal 2022 Results

Net sales were $36.4 million and $39.1 million in the three months ended January 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The decrease of $2.7 million was primarily a result of the timing of execution of certain large projects.

Gross profit was $10.2 million, or 28% of net sales and $9.7 million, or 25% of net sales, in the three months ended January 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The increase of $0.5 million was driven by improved gross margins as a result of the mix of projects globally.

General and administrative expenses were $5.8 million and $5.3 million in the three months ended January 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The increase of $0.5 million was primarily related to higher compensation costs.

Selling expenses were $1.3 million and $1.1 million in the three months ended January 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The increase of $0.2 million was due to the expansion of the Company's sales force in the current period.

Net interest expense was $0.5 million and $0.1 million in the three months ended January 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The increase of $0.4 million was related to increased borrowings and higher interest rates.

Net other income was $1.5 million in the three months ended January 31, 2023 and less than $0.1 million in the three months ended January 31, 2022. The increase of $1.5 million was due to the release of the Company's liability for a past project as well as insurance recovery income.

The Company's worldwide effective tax rates ("ETR") were 20.8% and 6.7% in the three months ended January 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The change in the ETR was primarily due to additional United State tax expense due to the inclusion of income from foreign jurisdictions with low effective tax rates, inability to recognize tax benefits on losses in the United States due to a full valuation allowance and changes in the mix of income and loss in the various tax jurisdictions.

Net income was $3.2 million and $3.0 million in the three months ended January 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The increase in net income was a result of the changes discussed above.

2022 Results

Net sales were $142.6 million and $138.6 million in the years ended January 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The increase of $4.0 million was primarily a result of higher sales volumes in North America and Saudi Arabia.

Gross profit was $38.3 million, or 27% of net sales and $32.5 million, or 23% of net sales, in the years ended January 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The increase of $5.8 million was driven by higher sales volumes and improved gross margins as a result of the mix of projects globally.

General and administrative expenses were $22.0 million and $19.9 million in the years ended January 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The increase of $2.1 million was primarily related to higher compensation costs.

Selling expenses were $5.2 million and $4.5 million in the years ended January 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The increase of $0.7 million was due to the expansion of the Company's sales force in the current period.

Net interest expense was $2.1 million and $0.8 million in the years ended January 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The increase of $1.3 million was related to increased borrowings and higher interest rates.

Net other income was $0.5 million and $1.0 million in the years ended January 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The current year amount includes income from the release of the Company's liability for a past project and insurance recovery income, partially offset by a non-cash pre-tax settlement charge resulting from the termination of the Company's pension plan. The prior year amount includes the receipt of grants from the Canadian government in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. Grants to the Company under these programs ended in the second quarter of 2021.

The Company's worldwide ETR's were 37.8% and 27.2% in the years ended January 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The change in the ETR was primarily due to additional United State tax expense due to the inclusion of income from foreign jurisdictions with low effective tax rates, inability to recognize tax benefits on losses in the United States due to a full valuation allowance and changes in the mix of income and loss in the various tax jurisdictions.

Net income was $5.9 million and $6.1 million in the years ended January 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The decrease in net income was a result of the changes discussed above.
