The company reiterated its guidance for FY21E which called for total revenues of $110-$130 million and EBITDA margin in the range of 3%-4% (implying EBITDA in the range of $3.3-$5.2 million). Given Q1/FY21 performance, we believe the middlerange of XBC’s revenue guidance is achievable based on the following assumptions: 1) Cleantech (ex. HyGear) revenues to pick-up back to $9-$10 million range as Q1/FY21 performance was relatively in-line with our expectations 2) HyGear’s revenue to pickup in 2H/FY21E to reflect CAGR of 10% over FY19 reported figures on run-rate basis (we admit the bar might be set too high here) 3) Cleantech’s segment revenues to achieve ~10% organic growth (+ the inclusion of Nortec mostly in 2H/FY21E), with no meaningful contribution from the potential capacity expansion at Inmatec and no additional M&A.

Woww downgrade hard

"While the company did not provide the breakdown of how each business is doing, we suspect the weakness is largely at HyGear given managements indication of record sales and deliveries for Inmatec, which remains operating at full capacity. "Given the multitude of moving parts and its more-recent track record, the company is more likely to miss the mark this year and we model gross margins just shy of 35% for the remainder of FY21E.
