Things to Note
In August, Modine launched a new electric infrared product line to expand its portfolio of energy-efficient and low-emissions heating solutions. The launch of the new product is likely to have fueled the company’s top-line growth in the quarter to be reported.
In the first quarter of fiscal 2024, Modine registered a total revenue of $622.4 million, up 15% from the prior year period. It reported an adjusted EBITDA of $80.4 million, up from $38.2 million recorded in the previous year’s quarter. For the full-year 2024, Modine expects net sales to rise in the range of 6% to 11% and adjusted EBITDA of $280-$295 million, an increase of 32% to 39% over the prior year. An upbeat full-year forecast is likely to have bolstered the result of Modine’s fiscal second quarter.
On the flip side, Modine is struggling with macroeconomic headwinds that include ongoing inflationary pressure in labor, materials and overhead, plus rising energy costs, supply chain shortages and the Ukrainian conflict. These headwinds are likely to have persisted in the quarter to be reported. Moreover, its SG&A increased by $5.1 million to $61.4 million in the first quarter due to higher compensation-related expenses. Rising expenses are likely to negatively impact upcoming result.
