MILWAUKEE–(BUSINESS WIRE<\/a>)–Badger Meter, Inc.<\/a> (NYSE: BMI) today reported record results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2023.<\/p>\n First Quarter 2023 Highlights<\/span><\/p>\n \n\u201cBadger Meter delivered record financial results in the first quarter reflecting our ongoing success in capitalizing on the strength of our end markets and the sequentially improving operating environment. We generated an all-time high quarterly revenue total in the first quarter, delivering 20% sales growth reflective of favorable industry fundamentals, healthy demand for our innovative smart water solutions, and outstanding execution on the part of our employees and supply base which led to higher production output. This, in turn, led to operating profit margin improvement which also benefited from structural mix improvement, value-based pricing, stabilization of inflationary pressures and selling, engineering and administration (SEA) leverage. We completed the acquisition of Syrinix at the beginning of the year for $18 million, extending our differentiated smart water offerings with pressure monitoring and leak detection capabilities,\u201d said Kenneth C. Bockhorst, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer. \u201cI am extremely pleased with our start to the year and want to thank our global employees for their continued tremendous efforts in serving customers.\u201d<\/p>\n First Quarter Operating Results<\/span><\/p>\n \nUtility water sales increased 20% year-over-year with continued robust adoption of our cellular AMI solution, including higher ORION\u00ae<\/sup> Cellular endpoint and BEACON\u00ae<\/sup> Software as a Service (SaaS) revenues coupled with increased water meter volumes including E-Series\u00ae<\/sup> Ultrasonic meters. Improved component availability, price realization and the addition of Syrinix also contributed to the year-over-year sales increase. Backlog expanded further despite the strong sales result.<\/p>\n\n \nSales of flow instrumentation products increased 22% year-over-year, with strong order demand across the water-focused end markets and improving supply chain dynamics which aided manufacturing output.<\/p>\n \nGross margin dollars increased $12.1 million year-over-year, and gross margin as a percent of sales improved 120 basis points to 39.5%, at the higher end of the Company\u2019s normalized range. The improvement was due to the combined benefits of positive sales mix including higher SaaS revenues, production efficiencies, value-based pricing and the sequential stabilization of inflationary pressures.<\/p>\n \nSEA expenses in the first quarter of 2023 were $37.8 million, $5.9 million higher than the comparable prior year quarter. As a percent of sales, SEA improved by 40 basis points to 23.7% versus 24.1% in the comparable prior year quarter. The increase in SEA dollars year-over-year was due to higher personnel-related costs including increased headcount, salaries, sales and management incentives and travel expenses and the addition of Syrinix, including the associated intangible asset amortization.<\/p>\n \nOperating profit margin was 15.7% in the first quarter of 2023, a 150 basis point improvement from the prior year\u2019s 14.2%.<\/p>\n \nThe tax rate for the first quarter of 2023 was 24.3%, modestly above the prior year\u2019s 23.7%. As a result, EPS was a record $0.66, up 35% compared to $0.49 in the comparable prior year period.<\/p>\n Strategic Review and Outlook<\/span><\/p>\n \nBockhorst continued, \u201cAs our first quarter demonstrates, we have started 2023 with positive momentum. We have confidence in the resiliency of our end markets, flexible business model and proven execution playbook to deliver on our strategy for superior through-cycle shareholder value creation. Our expanding portfolio of end-to-end smart water offerings brings tailorable and proactive intelligence for optimal water management to our customers and our stellar balance sheet supports our capital allocation priorities including value-added, disciplined acquisitions.<\/p>\n \nDemand trends in our markets remain healthy and we have experienced positive order trends, stable bid funnel and record backlogs supportive of continued strong financial performance. The sustained high order level is evidence that utility and industrial customers are willing to invest in our innovative and industry leading smart water solutions. The benefit of supply chain relief and steadying inflationary headwinds, along with solid operational execution lay the foundation for margin resilience for the balance of 2023.<\/p>\n \nWe are proud to be named to Barron’s 2023 100 Most Sustainable Companies list. We believe this type of recognition demonstrates our longstanding philosophy that it is possible to deliver both strong financial and sustainability performance.\u201d<\/p>\n \nBockhorst concluded, \u201cBadger Meter provides differentiated smart water solutions that deliver efficiency, resiliency and sustainability to customers throughout the water eco-system. Healthy demand for these innovative and trusted offerings, along with our strong balance sheet, give us confidence in our long-term growth outlook as we help to preserve the world\u2019s most precious resource.\u201d<\/p>\n Conference Call and Webcast Information<\/span><\/p>\n \nBadger Meter management will hold a conference call to discuss the Company\u2019s first quarter 2023 results today, Thursday April 20, 2023 at 10:00 AM Central\/11:00 AM Eastern time.
