VANCOUVER, British Columbia, May 08, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Westport Fuel Systems Inc. (“Westport") (TSX:WPRT / Nasdaq:WPRT) reported financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2023, and provided an update on operations. All figures are in U.S. dollars unless otherwise stated.
Q1 2023 Highlights
- Revenues increased 7% to $82.2 million compared to the same period in 2022, driven by an increase of $4.5 million or 9% in our Original Equipment Manufacturer ("OEM") business and $1.2 million or 5% increase in our Independent Aftermarket ("IAM") business.
- Net loss of $10.6 million for the quarter, compared to net income of $7.7 million for the same quarter last year. The decrease in earnings was driven by the loss of equity income from the sale of our interest in the Cummins Westport Inc (“CWI”) joint venture, including a $19.1 million gain recorded in the first quarter of 2022, partially offset by an increase in gross margin.
- Cash and cash equivalents were $72.0 million at the end of the first quarter of 2023. Cash used in operating activities during the quarter was $8.6 million, due to operating losses of $9.4 million and net-cash used in working capital of $3.9 million. Net debt repayment was $3.5 million, in the quarter.
- Adjusted EBITDA[1] of negative $4.5 million compared to negative $6.1 million for the same period in 2022.
- Announced expanded global manufacturing footprint in China supporting ongoing and future growth in hydrogen.
- Announced third major OEM collaborator to evaluate H2 HPDI fuel system.
- In April, two papers showcasing the industry leading performance of H2 HPDI on two different OEM engine platforms were presented at the Vienna Motor Symposium.
- In May, showcased our LNG and H2 HPDI fuel systems for internal combustion engines for heavy-duty applications with two fully functioning heavy-duty demonstration vehicles at the ACT Expo in California.
[1] Adjusted earnings before interest, taxes and depreciation is a non-GAAP measure. Please refer to NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES in Westport’s Management Discussion and Analysis for the reconciliation.
“We delivered solid operational and financial results in the first quarter of 2023, supported by our diversified business model, which allows us to combine our sustainable lower-growth core businesses with our higher-growth future all leading to a low carbon world. Operationally our businesses performed well, despite continued challenges related to chip shortages and a slow return of customers who have lingering concerns from the high LNG prices seen in 2022. We saw significant improvements in gross margin this quarter, to a level we were much more comfortable with, though work still remains and is ongoing to generate continued margin improvement. We remain focused on taking actions to strengthen our balance sheet including improving margins, volumes and constraining spending. The closing of Cartesian debt following quarter end, and release of the security interest in our HPDI 2.0 fuel system intellectual property provides us flexibility for financing alternatives. Going forward liquidity remains a key priority.
Our OEM business benefited from strong growth in our delayed OEM, fuel storage, hydrogen and electronics businesses as well as higher pricing partially offset by modest volumes from our European OEM launch partner. Our IAM business, despite experiencing some market and inflationary headwinds performed well, with both the top and bottom line growth over the prior-year period
Looking to the remainder of 2023, we remain focused on growth in our key markets to achieve sustainable profitability as the demand for clean, affordable low emissions transportation solutions grows. We continue to work diligently to enhance margins with a commitment to both top line and bottom-line improvements. We welcome the return of the European LNG pricing advantage as compared to diesel, combined with the launch of a new product by our lead European HPDI OEM partner. Late 2023 also marks the beginning of our LPG fuel system production and sales to our European OEM customer. The growth of LPG is driven by its price advantage versus petrol and the lower cost to access lower carbon transportation. This is where LPG beats BEV, Hybrids and FCEV in terms of product affordability. This becomes accentuated when governments end incentives on those more expensive options. We look forward to continuing to support our customers in delivering LPG growth long into the future.
Vehicle makers around the world are recognizing that there are many possible paths to reaching the important goal of significantly reducing or eliminating emissions - a ‘one size fits all’ approach to emissions reduction does not exist. Our ongoing testing and development work is prioritized as we work with our three announced OEM partners to demonstrate the benefits of H2 HPDI in real world applications. We also recognize that demonstrating the strength of our H2 HPDI fuel system at venues like ACT Expo and the Vienna Motor Symposium is an important part of the path to commercialization. We educate OEMs and fleets on the ability to maintain existing diesel engine architecture and related manufacturing infrastructure while delivering timely, efficient, cost-effective peak performance in transport applications.”

Revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2023 increased by 7% to $82.2 million compared to $76.5 million in the same quarter last year, primarily driven by increased sales volumes of our delayed OEM, fuel storage, hydrogen and electronics products, increased sales volumes of IAM in the North American and Eastern Europe markets. These were offset by lower sales volumes to Indian customers in the light-duty OEM business, and lower sales of CNG and LNG products due to higher natural gas prices in the European market.
Gross margin for the three months ended March 31, 2023 increased by 34% to $13.3 million or 16% of revenue compared to $9.9 million or 13% of revenue in the same quarter last year.
Net loss was $10.6 million for the first quarter of 2023, compared to a net income of $7.7 million for the same quarter last year. The decrease in earnings was driven by the loss of equity income from the termination and sale of the CWI joint venture and a $19.1 million gain recorded in the first quarter of 2022, partially offset by higher year-over-year gross margins of $3.4 million.
Westport generated negative $4.5 million in Adjusted EBITDA during the first quarter of 2023, compared to negative $6.1 million Adjusted EBITDA for the same period in 2022.

Original Equipment Manufacturer Segment
Revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2023, was $56.3 million, compared with $51.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022. The increase of $4.5 million was primarily driven by increased in sales for our delayed OEM, fuel storage, hydrogen, and electronics businesses, which was partially offset by decreased sales volumes of our light-duty OEM from India. Sales volumes decreased from our heavy-duty OEM mainly due to the unfavorable fuel price differential between LNG and diesel in Europe driven by the shortage of LNG supply, offset by a favourable price adjustment from our customer.
Gross margin increased by $3.1 million to $8.1 million, or 14% of revenue, compared to $5.0 million, or 10% of revenue for the same period in the prior year, and a loss of $0.8 million and (2%) in the fourth quarter of 2022. The improvement was driven by increased sales volumes in multiple OEM businesses including improved sales mix of delayed OEM business system parts. Further, we continue to incur higher production input costs from supply chain challenges, and inflation in logistics, utilities, labor, and other costs, which we have only partially been able to pass on to our OEM customers.
In spite of these pressures, we remain confident in the outlook for our OEM segment. Low to zero-emission transportation is our future and our HPDI story provides an affordable solution. Supportive government policies to mitigate climate change globally bolster the adoption of our products and the increasing usage of biomethane now with hydrogen tomorrow using HPDI accelerates the energy transition in heavy-duty transport. Earlier this year, our European launch partner announced a new natural gas HPDI equipped engine that delivers increased horsepower and an extended range. As is typical in the release of new products, we expect a production and sales reduction of the original engine platform as customers opt to wait for the new, more powerful option.
Independent Aftermarket Segment
Revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2023, was $25.9 million, compared with $24.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022. Gross margin for the quarter increased by $0.3 million to $5.2 million, or 20% of revenue, compared to $4.9 million, or 20% of revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and $5.4 million, or 18% of revenue in the fourth quarter of 2022. The increase in revenue and gross margin percentage was primarily driven by higher sales volumes to North America, Eastern Europe and South America, partially offset by the lower sales volume in the Middle East and Africa, and higher production input costs incurred in materials, transportation, and energy costs.
The opportunity Westport has to expand market share in current markets and advancing into emerging markets with our LPG solutions is a real, decisive factor for growth. Supportive LPG pricing is creating a promising demand trend for our business. Ultimately emissions reduction is going to be driven by large scale adoption, and adoption will be driven by affordability. Westport continues to address and serve markets which can’t afford expensive electric vehicles but are still looking for cleaner solutions. These are the areas where Westport can continue to win and drive market share.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
Management reviews the operational progress of its business units and investment programs over successive periods through the analysis of net income, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA. The Company defines EBITDA as net income or loss from continuing operations before income taxes adjusted for interest expense (net), depreciation and amortization. Westport Fuel Systems defines Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA from continuing operations excluding expenses for stock-based compensation, unrealized foreign exchange gain or loss, and non-cash and other adjustments. Management uses Adjusted EBITDA as a long-term indicator of operational performance since it ties closely to the business units’ ability to generate sustained cash flow and such information may not be appropriate for other purposes. Adjusted EBITDA includes the company's share of income from joint ventures.
The terms EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not defined under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("U.S. GAAP") and are not a measure of operating income, operating performance or liquidity presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA have limitations as an analytical tool, and when assessing the company's operating performance, investors should not consider EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA in isolation, or as a substitute for net loss or other consolidated statement of operations data prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Among other things, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect the company's actual cash expenditures. Other companies may calculate similar measures differently than Westport Fuel Systems, limiting their usefulness as comparative tools. The company compensates for these limitations by relying primarily on its U.S. GAAP results and using EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA as supplemental information.
