Advanced Energy Announces First Quarter 2021 Results

  • Q1 revenue was $352 million, above the guidance midpoint of $350 million
  • GAAP EPS from continuing operations was $0.99
  • Non-GAAP EPS was $1.29, above the guidance midpoint of $1.25
  • Q1 operating cash flow from continuing operations exceeded $54 million

Advanced Energy Industries, Inc. (Nasdaq: AEIS), a global leader in highly engineered, precision power conversion, measurement, and control solutions, today announced financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2021.

“Financial results for the first quarter reflected strong market demand, with double-digit year over year revenue growth and a record quarter in Semiconductor,” said President and CEO Steve Kelley. “We see demand increasing through the balance of the year with tailwinds across all of our markets. We are focused on executing our strategy to grow faster than the market and accelerate earnings growth.”

First Quarter Results

Sales were $351.6 million in the first quarter of 2021, compared with $371.0 million in the fourth quarter of 2020 and $315.5 million in the first quarter of 2020.

GAAP net income from continuing operations was $38.4 million or $0.99 per diluted share in the quarter, compared with $41.9 million or $1.09 per diluted share in the prior quarter, and $18.4 million or $0.48 per diluted share in the first quarter of 2020.

Non-GAAP net income was $49.7 million or $1.29 per diluted share in the first quarter of 2021. This compares with $57.3 million or $1.49 per diluted share in the fourth quarter of 2020, and $34.9 million or $0.91 per diluted share in the first quarter of 2020.

A reconciliation of non-GAAP measures is provided in the tables below.

The company generated $54.3 million of operating cash from continuing operations during the quarter, made debt principal payments of $4.4 million, and paid $3.9 million in a quarterly dividend.

Discontinued Operations

The company’s financial statements for all periods presented reflect results for the continuing precision power business, with the discontinued inverter business included in discontinued operations for all purposes. Further financial detail regarding the amounts related to the discontinued inverter business is available in the company’s 2020 Annual Report on Form 10‑K.

Non-GAAP Measures

This release includes GAAP and non-GAAP income and per-share earnings data and other GAAP and non-GAAP financial information. Advanced Energy’s non-GAAP measures exclude the impact of non-cash related charges such as stock-based compensation and amortization of intangible assets, as well as discontinued operations, and non-recurring items such as acquisition-related costs and restructuring expenses. Beginning in the second quarter of 2020, Advanced Energy’s non-GAAP measures exclude non-cash unrealized foreign currency gains or losses that result from remeasurement to functional currency long-term obligations related to pension and operating lease liabilities as the remeasurement does not represent current economic exposure and is unrelated to our overall operating performance. These long-term obligations were acquired in connection with the Artesyn acquisition and the company previously used derivatives to hedge the exposure; however, the company has determined it will no longer hedge these non-economic exposures. The tax effect of our non-GAAP adjustments represents the anticipated annual tax rate applied to each non-GAAP adjustment after consideration of their respective book and tax treatments.

The non-GAAP measures included in this release are not in accordance with, or an alternative for, similar measures calculated under generally accepted accounting principles and may be different from non-GAAP measures used by other companies. In addition, these non-GAAP measures are not based on any comprehensive set of accounting rules or principles. Advanced Energy believes that these non-GAAP measures provide useful information to management and investors to evaluate business performance without the impacts of certain non-cash charges, non-economic foreign currency remeasurements, and other cash charges which are not part of the company’s usual operations. The company uses these non-GAAP measures to assess performance against business objectives, make business decisions, develop budgets, forecast future periods, assess trends and evaluate financial impacts of various scenarios. In addition, management’s incentive plans include these non-GAAP measures as criteria for achievements. Additionally, the company believes that these non-GAAP measures, in combination with its financial results calculated in accordance with GAAP, provide investors with additional perspective. While some of the excluded items may be incurred and reflected in the company’s GAAP financial results in the foreseeable future, the company believes that the items excluded from certain non-GAAP measures do not accurately reflect the underlying performance of its continuing operations for the period in which they are incurred. The use of non-GAAP measures has limitations in that such measures do not reflect all of the amounts associated with the company’s results of operations as determined in accordance with GAAP, and these measures should only be used to evaluate the company’s results of operations in conjunction with the corresponding GAAP measures. Please refer to the Form 8‑K regarding this release furnished today to the Securities and Exchange Commission.
