Skellerup reports record 1H22 earnings and provides FY22 earnings guidance

Skellerup announced today a record unaudited net profit after tax (NPAT) of $23.2 million for the six

months ended 31 December 2021 and provided full year NPAT guidance of $44 to $47 million.

Key points for the six months ending 31 December 2021

• Revenue of $150.5 million, up 10% on prior comparative period (pcp)

• Earnings before interest and tax (EBIT) of $32.4 million, up 18% on pcp

o Industrial Division EBIT of $18.7 million, up 20% on pcp

o Agri Division EBIT of $16.7 million, up 9% on pcp

o Corporate costs of $2.9 million, down 12% on pcp

• Net profit after tax (NPAT) of $23.2 million, up 19% on pcp

• Operating cash flow of $19.7 million, down 44% on pcp

• Net debt of $25.6 million, up $16.9 million on FY21 year-end

• Interim dividend of 7.5 cents per share (an increase of 1.0 cps), up 15% on pcp

• FY22 NPAT forecast in the range of $44 to $47 million.

CEO David Mair said he was proud of Skellerup’s growth trajectory. “Our consistently strong earnings

performance is the culmination of years of hard thinking about the essence of our business and

making deliberate choices to lay a foundation for future success. That essence is designing and

developing real solutions to predominantly original equipment manufacturer (OEM) customers, and

our unwavering focus on their needs.”

Mair emphasised that both Agri and Industrial Divisions achieved record results generated from

revenue growth, whilst maintaining margins and controlling indirect costs. “Growth was broad

based, and strongest in US, NZ and Asian markets, notwithstanding the impact of longer shipping

timeframes, material shortages, freight and material costs increases. In short, Covid-19 interruptions

were successfully overcome by our people.”

Mair added, “I am very proud of our people. Notwithstanding the difficult challenges faced, our

teams have continued to deliver the many essential products we make for our customers across the

world. We have progressed new products along their development path, including launching some

into market, as well as starting new projects. We have kept our focus on where it matters most, our

customers and our employees."

Skellerup’s Industrial Division achieved a record EBIT of $18.7 million, up 20% on pcp. Revenue grew

by 12%, and earnings growth was broad based. “The US market had the largest impact due to

growth in potable and wastewater products and marine foam. Roofing, electronics and health

applications drove growth in Asian and New Zealand markets”, stated Mair. He added, “The

acquisition of Talbot Advanced Technologies in August provides a very good fit for the Skellerup

Group. It strengthens our capability and capacity for health, technology and electronics

applications”.






Skellerup’s Agri Division achieved a record EBIT of $16.7 million, up 9% on pcp. Mair noted,

“Revenue grew 7%, with dairy rubberware sales up, particularly in the US market. Margins, however,

were down slightly due to the impact of increasing raw material prices and freight costs. The Agri

Division was also boosted by increased footwear sales across all markets, and particularly in New

Zealand.”

Operating cash flow in the first half was down on pcp due to a planned increase in inventory to

mitigate the impacts of Covid-19. Mair said “We increased raw materials and finished goods in

transit to our distribution centres to ensure continuity of supply to our customers. Net debt is up on

FY21 year-end because of the acquisition of Talbot and investment in working capital. Skellerup’s

balance sheet remains very strong.”

The record first half result meant that expectations are for a record Full Year profit. Skellerup

expects to deliver FY22 NPAT in the range of $44 to $47 million. Mair said “We have strengthened

our team with new appointments in sales, product development and operational roles. These

investments in capability and capacity will support sustained future growth. We will continue to

manage the many disruptions caused by Covid-19, primarily in international shipping.”

Chair Liz Coutts said the outstanding first half earnings, and expectations for the full year, allowed

the Board to declare a 15% increase in the interim dividend to 7.5 cents per share, imputed 50% (the

same level as in the pcp).

“During the first half, Skellerup has once again demonstrated the strength of our business,

generating earnings from delivering critical products to our (OEM) customers around the world. The

Board is proud of the contribution of our global team, especially given the ongoing disruption caused

by the pandemic. The Board is focused on supporting our people as we maintain our strong focus on

investing to grow sustainable earnings and shareholder returns.”

Chair and CEO Review

revenue of $150.5 million up 10% on pcp

which was also a record. The not insignificant

impact of longer shipping timeframes,

material shortages, freight and material cost

increases were overcome, a testament to the

adaptability and committed performance of

our now 860-strong global workforce.

In a challenging period, Skellerup has

continued to progress new products along

their development path. We have launched

products into market, started new projects

and invested in capacity to deliver growth

from new and existing products over the

next 12 months.

Both Agri and Industrial divisions achieved

record results generated from revenue

growth, whilst maintaining margins and

controlling indirect costs. Strongest

growth was achieved in the United States,

New Zealand and Asian markets.

Alongside the record first half result, we

have strengthened our team, making new

appointments in sales, product development

and key operational roles. These people

will help us continue our growth trajectory

from new and existing products.

Skellerup has maintained its

strong forward momentum

for the first half, generating

record growth as a result of our

unrelenting focus on delivering

critical and essential products

to global customers. For the six

months ended 31 December

2021, Skellerup recorded a net

profit after tax (NPAT) of $23.2

million. This result represents

a 19% increase over the prior

corresponding period (pcp).

This record performance is the result

of Skellerup’s continued focus on our

customers’ needs. We design and develop

real solutions for customers – predominantly,

original equipment manufacturers (OEM).

Skellerup’s essence is combining deep

material expertise, strong product and

tooling capability, and proven manufacturing

process knowledge and experience. Being

able to deliver essential products that often

integrate multiple materials to changing

and demanding regulatory standards is

Skellerup’s competitive advantage.

Despite the disruptive ongoing impacts

of Covid-19, we achieved record first half

Industrial Division

Skellerup’s Industrial Division achieved

a record EBIT of $18.7 million, up 20%

on pcp. Revenue growth of 12% to $96.1

million was again broad based across

markets and applications.

The US market had the largest positive

impact on revenue due to sales growth

in potable and wastewater applications

and marine foam. Asian market growth

was driven by products used in roofing,

electronics, and health applications.

In New Zealand, market growth was

due to foam, and soft materials used in

marine, health, construction and furniture

applications, alongside the contribution of

Talbot Advanced Technologies, acquired

by Skellerup in August 2021, and which

traded in line with expectations. Talbot

provides an excellent fit for the Skellerup

Group, strengthening our capability

and capacity for health, technology and

electronics applications.

Agri Division

Agri Division achieved a record EBIT of $16.7

million, up 9% on pcp. Revenue growth of

7% to $54.3 million was also broad based.

Skellerup is the second largest manufacturer

of food-grade dairy rubberware globally and

sales were up, particularly in the US market,

although margins were down slightly due to the

impact of increasing raw material prices and

freight costs. Footwear sales were up across all

markets, particularly so in New Zealand.

Covid-19 Impact

International shipping disruptions including

restricted container availability, shipping

capacity and port congestions were overcome

by increasing the level of raw materials held

and increasing finished goods in transit to

our distribution centres and our customers.

Constrained supply for some key raw

materials was countered by the reformulation

of compounds using alternate materials and

supply sources. These necessary and prudent

actions along with the impact of cost increases

caused an increase in inventory and reduction

in operating cash flow in the first half.

Dividend

Record first half earnings and confident

expectations for the full year have enabled the

Board to declare a 15% increase in the interim

dividend to 7.5 cents per share, imputed 50%.

The dividend will be distributed on 17 March

2022 to shareholders on the register at 5.00pm

on 04 March 2022.

Outlook

We are optimistic about Skellerup’ s position

going forward. Our fundamentals for operating

a sustainable growth-oriented business –

working closely with customers, developing

essential products, improving the efficiency

and sustainability of our operations, investing

in our people – will hold us in good stead.

With Covid-19 variants still impacting globally

we will continue to collaboratively support

our people across geographies to help them

maintain their excellent performance.

David Mair

Chief Executive Officer

and Director

Our balance sheet remains strong with

net debt only $25.6 million after having

completed the acquisition of Talbot and

investing in additional inventory to ensure

uninterrupted supply for our customers.

Skellerup management planning for, and

overcoming, Covid-19 disruptions will

remain a key focus. Global and local supply

chain disruptions, with their extended

shipping times and increased freight costs,

are expected to continue in the near term.

We expect FY22 NPAT to be in the range

of $44 to $47 million.

The Board is proud of the contributions

across our global team. Our people have

risen magnificently during challenging times

by continuing to deliver the many essential

products we make to our global customers.

We remain focused on ensuring Skellerup’s

global team remain well supported and we

will continue to invest in the business to grow

sustainable earnings and shareholder returns.

Interim Financial Reporting.

The half year financial report does not include all notes of the type normally included within the
