As previously disclosed in our Form 8-K, filed on October 27, 2022, we entered into a definitive merger agreement to be acquired by Regal Rexnord, under which Altra shareholders will receive $62.00 in cash for each share of Altra common stock. The transaction is expected to close in the first half of 2023, subject to customary closing conditions, including approval by Altra shareholders and receipt of regulatory approvals.

Management Comments  

“Looking at our third quarter results, we delivered strong performance highlighted by solid bookings and record backlog of $963 million. Our focus on positioning Altra as a high-value, technology leader across a range of attractive industrial markets with broad-based demand strength has continued to pay off.

“On an organic basis*, Q3 sales were up 1.9% compared to the same period last year. Included in the Q3 2021 net sales are revenues of approximately $41.3 million related to the Jacobs Vehicle Systems business that was divested by the Company on April 8, 2022. This performance is a testament to the resilience of our enhanced business model and the effectiveness of our pricing actions and surcharges, which partially mitigated the greater than anticipated foreign exchange swings in the quarter.

“With inventory and working capital levels stabilizing, we once again demonstrated our ability to consistently generate cash through the cycle and ended the quarter with $61.9 million in Non-GAAP Adjusted Free Cash Flow*. We leveraged our cash to bolster the balance sheet by paying down an additional $29 million in debt, which includes $16 million early paydown on our $400 million notes. Additionally, we continued to return capital to our shareholders through a $0.09 per share dividend.”

*Discussion of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The non-GAAP financial measures used in this release are utilized by management in comparing our operating performance on a consistent basis. We believe that these financial measures are appropriate to enhance the overall understanding of our underlying operating performance trends compared to historical and prospective periods and our peers. We believe that these measures provide important supplemental information to management and investors regarding financial and business trends relating to the Company's financial condition and results of operations as well as insight into the compliance with our debt covenants. Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, financial information calculated in accordance with GAAP. Investors are encouraged to review the reconciliation of these non-GAAP measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures. Our industry peers may provide similar supplemental non-GAAP information with respect to one or more of these measures, although they may not use the same or comparable terminology and may not make identical adjustments. A reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures presented above to our GAAP results has been provided in the financial tables included in this press release.

Organic Sales and Organic Sales Growth

Organic Sales in this release are net sales excluding the impact of foreign currency translation and acquisitions. Organic Sales can be expressed as a dollar amount or a percentage rate when describing Organic Sales Growth.

Non-GAAP Net Income, Non-GAAP Net Income Margin, Non-GAAP Income From Operations, Non-GAAP Diluted Earnings Per Share and Non-GAAP Operating Income Margin

Non-GAAP Net Income, Non-GAAP Net Income Margin, Non-GAAP Income From Operations and Non-GAAP Diluted Earnings Per Share exclude, as applicable to the particular period, acquisition related amortization expense, acquisition related expense, acquisition related stock compensation expense, restructuring and consolidation costs, non-cash amortization of interest rate swap expense and other income or charges that management does not consider to be directly related to the Company’s core operating performance. Non-GAAP Net Income Margin is calculated by dividing Non-GAAP Net Income by GAAP Net Sales. Non-GAAP Diluted Earnings Per Share is calculated by dividing Non-GAAP Net Income by GAAP weighted average shares outstanding (diluted). Non-GAAP Operating Income Margin is calculated by dividing Non-GAAP Income From Operations by GAAP Net Sales.

Non-GAAP Gross Profit

Non-GAAP gross profit excludes amortization of inventory fair value adjustment. Non-GAAP gross profit margin is calculated by dividing Non-GAAP gross profit by GAAP Net Sales.

Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA

Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA represents earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, acquisition related amortization, acquisition related costs, restructuring costs, stock-based compensation, asset impairment and other income or charges that management does not consider to be directly related to the Company’s core operating performance.

Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA Margin

Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA Margin is calculated by dividing Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA by GAAP Net Sales.

Non-GAAP Free Cash Flow

Non-GAAP Free Cash Flow is calculated by deducting purchases of property, plant and equipment.

Non-GAAP Adjusted Free Cash Flow

Non-GAAP Adjusted Free Cash Flow is calculated by deducting purchases of property, plant and equipment and adding back the JVS transaction costs paid and tax paid as a result of the JVS divestiture.

Non-GAAP Operating Working Capital

Non-GAAP Operating Working Capital is calculated by deducting accounts payable from net trade receivables plus inventories.

Net Debt
