Knowles Reports Q2 2024 Financial Results and Provides Outlook for Q3 2024

Second Quarter Revenues increased 18% on a year over year basis to $205M, in line with guidance

Net Cash from Operations of $25 million; at the mid-point of the Guided Range

Knowles Corporation (NYSE: KN) ("Knowles" the "Company"), a leading global supplier of high performance electronics for demanding applications, including ceramic capacitors and radio frequency (“RF”) filters, advanced medtech microphones, balanced armature speakers, and MEMS microphones for the consumer electronic market, today announced results for the quarter ended June 30, 2024.

“We closed the second quarter of 2024 with revenues, Non-GAAP diluted earnings per share, and net cash from operating activities in line with our expectations and at the mid-point of our guided range. Our revenues grew from the prior year by 18% while our generation of net cash from operations remained strong allowing us to repurchase shares while reducing debt levels in the quarter,” commented Jeffrey Niew, President and CEO of Knowles.

“Building upon our second quarter performance, in the third quarter we expect sequential and year over year revenue growth in our Medtech and Specialty Audio and Precision Devices segments, along with sequential earnings growth and sustained strong cash generation.”

Mr. Niew added, “I am pleased with our execution in transitioning our company's portfolio to higher value markets and products to drive shareholder value. As we begin to see demand improve across several end markets within the Precision Devices segment, we believe we are well positioned for future growth."

Third Quarter 2024 Outlook

The forward looking guidance for the quarter ending September 30, 2024 is as follows:

 

GAAP

Adjustments

Non-GAAP

Revenues

$210 to $220 million

$210 to $220 million

$35 to $45 million

Q3 2024 GAAP results are expected to include approximately $0.07 per share in stock-based compensation expense, $0.06 per share in intangibles amortization expense, and $0.01 per share in acquisition-related costs, partially offset by $0.05 per share for differences related to the GAAP effective tax rate. These items are excluded from non-GAAP results.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In addition to the GAAP results included in this press release, Knowles has presented supplemental non-GAAP gross profit, earnings before interest and income taxes, adjusted earnings before interest and income taxes, non-GAAP diluted earnings per share, free cash flow, as well as other metrics on a non-GAAP basis that exclude certain amounts that are included in the most directly comparable GAAP measure to facilitate evaluation of Knowles’ operating performance. Non-GAAP results are not presented in accordance with GAAP. Non-GAAP information should be considered a supplement to, and not a substitute for, financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP. In addition, the non-GAAP financial measures included in this press release do not have standard meanings and may vary from similarly titled non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. Knowles believes that non-GAAP measures are useful as supplements to its GAAP results of operations to evaluate certain aspects of its operations and financial performance, and its management team primarily focuses on non-GAAP items in evaluating Knowles’ performance for business planning purposes. Knowles also believes that these measures assist it with comparing its performance between various reporting periods on a consistent basis, as these measures remove from operating results the impact of items that, in Knowles’ opinion, do not reflect its core operating performance including, for example, stock-based compensation, certain intangibles amortization expense, impairment charges, restructuring, production transfer costs, and other charges which management considers to be outside our core operating results. Knowles believes that its presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures is useful because it provides investors and securities analysts with the same information that Knowles uses internally for purposes of assessing its core operating performance. For a reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures, see the reconciliation table accompanying this release.

Notes:

(1)

In addition to the GAAP financial measures included herein, Knowles has presented certain non-GAAP financial measures that exclude certain amounts that are included in the most directly comparable GAAP measures. Knowles believes that non-GAAP measures are useful as supplements to its GAAP results of operations to evaluate certain aspects of its operations and financial performance, and its management team primarily focuses on non-GAAP items in evaluating Knowles' performance for business planning purposes. Knowles also believes that these measures assist it with comparing its performance between various reporting periods on a consistent basis, as these measures remove from operating results the impact of items that, in Knowles' opinion, do not reflect its core operating performance. Knowles believes that its presentation of non-GAAP financial measures is useful because it provides investors and securities analysts with the same information that Knowles uses internally for purposes of assessing its core operating performance.

(2)

Production transfer costs represent duplicate costs incurred to migrate manufacturing to facilities primarily within the United States. These amounts are included in the corresponding Gross profit and (Loss) earnings before interest and income taxes for each period presented.

(3)

These expenses are related to the acquisition of Cornell Dubilier by the Precision Devices segment. These expenses include ongoing costs to facilitate integration, the amortization of fair value adjustments to inventory, and costs incurred by the Company to carry out this transaction.

(4)

Other expenses include non-recurring professional service fees related to the execution of various reorganization projects, foreign currency exchange rate impacts on restructuring balances, and the ongoing net lease cost (income) related to facilities not used in operations.

(5)

This gain is related to the sale of intellectual property previously used in the Intelligent Audio product line, which is included within the Consumers MEMS Microphones segment.

(6)

Income tax effects of non-GAAP reconciling adjustments are calculated using the applicable tax rates in the jurisdictions of the underlying adjustments.

(7)

The non-GAAP reconciling adjustments are those adjustments made to reconcile (Loss) earnings before interest and income taxes to Adjusted earnings before interest and income taxes.

(8)

The number of shares used in the diluted per share calculations on a non-GAAP basis excludes the impact of stock-based compensation expense expected to be incurred in future periods and not yet recognized in the financial statements, which would otherwise be assumed to be used to repurchase shares under the GAAP treasury stock method.
