"Dana had another strong quarter, with sales of $2.75 billion and a 250-basis-point margin improvement," said James Kamsickas, Dana chairman and chief executive officer.  "I am extremely proud of how the Dana team is executing across our operations, including a substantial number of launches for both electrified and traditional programs, as well as our ongoing transformation toward zero emissions.  The challenging production environment has persisted, but we have positioned ourselves well to take advantage as supply chains and customer order patterns continue to stabilize.  As a result, we expect our momentum to carry through the back half of the year as demand remains strong across each of our end markets."

Second-quarter 2023 Financial Results
Sales for the second quarter of 2023 totaled $2.75 billion, compared with $2.59 billion in the same period of 2022, representing a $162 million increase driven by higher market demand, cost-recovery actions, and conversion of our sales backlog, partially offset by the translation of foreign currencies.

Adjusted EBITDA for the second quarter of 2023 was $243 million, compared with $162 million for the same period in 2022.  The 250 basis points of margin improvement in the second quarter of 2023 was primarily driven by higher sales volume, net customer pricing and recovery actions, and lower net commodity costs.  These improvements were partially offset by production inefficiencies driven by volatile customer demand schedules and negative exchange-rate impacts.

Net income attributable to Dana was $30 million, or $0.21 per share, compared with net income of $8 million, or $0.06 per share, in the second quarter of 2022.

Adjusted net income attributable to Dana was $54 million, and diluted adjusted earnings per share were $0.37 for the second quarter of 2023, compared with adjusted net income of $12 million and $0.08 per share in 2022.

Cash flow from operations in the second quarter of 2023 were $256 million, compared with $257 million in the same period of 2022.  Free cash flow was $134 million, compared with $167 million in the second quarter of 2022.  The difference was due to higher capital spending for new business backlog.

"Strong demand, great execution, and improved market dynamics have allowed us to increase our full-year guidance for 2023," said Timothy Kraus, Dana senior vice president and chief financial officer.  "Throughout the second half of the year, we remain focused on delivering our program launch commitments, offsetting external cost increases, and continuing to win new business."

Revised 2023 Financial Targets^{1, 2}

• Sales of $10.45 to $10.95 billion;

• Adjusted EBITDA of $800 to $900 million, an implied adjusted EBITDA margin of approximately 7.9 percent at the midpoint of the range;

• Diluted adjusted EPS of $0.65 to $1.05;

• Operating cash flow of approximately, $560 to $610 million; and

• Free cash flow of $50 million to $100 million

Non-GAAP Financial Information
Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure which we have defined as net income (loss) before interest, income taxes, depreciation, amortization, equity grant expense, restructuring expense, non-service cost components of pension and other postretirement benefit costs and other adjustments not related to our core operations (gain/loss on debt extinguishment, pension settlements, divestitures, impairment, etc.). Adjusted EBITDA is a measure of our ability to maintain and continue to invest in our operations and provide shareholder returns. We use adjusted EBITDA in assessing the effectiveness of our business strategies, evaluating and pricing potential acquisitions and as a factor in making incentive compensation decisions. In addition to its use by management, we also believe adjusted EBITDA is a measure widely used by securities analysts, investors and others to evaluate financial performance of our company relative to other Tier 1 automotive suppliers. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered a substitute for earnings (loss) before income taxes, net income (loss) or other results reported in accordance with GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

Adjusted net income (loss) attributable to the parent company is a non-GAAP financial measure which we have defined as net income (loss) attributable to the parent company, excluding any discrete income tax items, restructuring charges, amortization expense and other adjustments not related to our core operations (as used in adjusted EBITDA), net of any associated income tax effects. This measure is considered useful for purposes of providing investors, analysts and other interested parties with an indicator of ongoing financial performance that provides enhanced comparability to net income attributable to the parent company reported by other companies. Adjusted net income (loss) attributable to the parent company is neither intended to represent nor be an alternative measure to net income (loss) attributable to the parent company reported in accordance with GAAP.

Diluted adjusted EPS is a non-GAAP financial measure which we have defined as adjusted net income (loss) attributable to the parent company divided by adjusted diluted shares.  We define adjusted diluted shares as diluted shares as determined in accordance with GAAP based on adjusted net income (loss) attributable to the parent company.  This measure is considered useful for purposes of providing investors, analysts and other interested parties with an indicator of ongoing financial performance that provides enhanced comparability to EPS reported by other companies.  Diluted adjusted EPS is neither intended to represent nor be an alternative measure to diluted EPS reported in accordance with GAAP.

Free cash flow is a non-GAAP financial measure which we have defined as net cash provided by (used in) operating activities less purchases of property, plant and equipment.  We believe free cash flow is useful to investors in evaluating the operational cash flow of the company inclusive of the spending required to maintain the operations.  Free cash flow is not intended to represent nor be an alternative to the measure of net cash provided by (used in) operating activities reported in accordance with GAAP.  Free cash flow may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

The accompanying financial information provides reconciliations of adjusted EBITDA, diluted adjusted EPS and free cash flow to the most directly comparable financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. We have not provided a reconciliation of our adjusted EBITDA and diluted adjusted EPS outlook to the most comparable GAAP measures of net income (loss) and diluted EPS. Providing net income (loss) and diluted EPS guidance is potentially misleading and not practical given the difficulty of projecting event driven transactional and other non-core operating items that are included in net income (loss) and diluted EPS, including restructuring actions, asset impairments and certain income tax adjustments. The accompanying reconciliations of these non-GAAP measures with the most comparable GAAP measures for the historical periods presented are indicative of the reconciliations that will be prepared upon completion of the periods covered by the non-GAAP guidance.
