\nEncore Wire Corporation (NASDAQ Global Select: WIRE) today announced results for the first quarter of 2023.<\/p>\n
\nFirst Quarter 2023 Highlights<\/p>\n
- \n
- \nFirst Quarter Earnings per diluted share of $6.50<\/p>\n<\/li>\n
- \nFirst Quarter Net Income of $119.5 million<\/p>\n<\/li>\n
- \nGross Profit of 31.1% in the first quarter of 2023; 33.7% in the first quarter of 2022<\/p>\n<\/li>\n
- \nCash on hand of $697.4 million as of March 31, 2023; $730.6 million as of December 31, 2022<\/p>\n<\/li>\n
- \nCapital expenditures of $31.8 million in 2023<\/p>\n<\/li>\n
- \nCompany repurchased 702,478 shares during the quarter; 1,297,522 shares remain authorized to be repurchased<\/p>\n<\/li>\n
- \nTotal cash outlay for share repurchases of $127.1 million during the quarter<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
\nNet sales for the first quarter ended March 31, 2023 were $660.5 million compared to $723.1 million for the first quarter of 2022. Copper unit volume, measured in pounds of copper contained in the wire sold, was flat in the first quarter of 2023 versus the first quarter of 2022. The decrease in net sales was driven by a decrease in the average selling price in the first quarter of 2023 compared to the first quarter of 2022. Aluminum wire represented 14.6% of net sales in the first quarter of 2023.<\/p>\n
\nGross profit percentage for the first quarter of 2023 was 31.1% compared to 33.7% in the first quarter of 2022. The average selling price of wire per copper pound sold decreased 11.8% in the first quarter of 2023 versus the first quarter of 2022, while the average cost of copper per pound purchased decreased 8.2%. This resulted in the gradual abatement of copper spreads in the quarter, primarily driven by a decrease in the average selling price noted above, offset somewhat by increased aluminum spreads, which resulted in the decreased gross profit margin in the first quarter of 2023 compared to the first quarter of 2022. The increase in SG&A in the quarter was primarily due to an increase in Stock Appreciation Rights (\u201cSARs\u201d) charges driven by the increase in our stock price at March 31, 2023 versus December 31, 2022. We recorded $13.2 million in SARs expense in the first quarter of 2023 compared to a $4.8 million SARs benefit recorded in the first quarter of 2022, resulting in an $18 million increase in expenses period-over-period. No SARs were granted subsequent to January of 2020.<\/p>\n
\nNet income for the first quarter of 2023 was $119.5 million versus $161.5 million in the first quarter of 2022. Fully diluted earnings per common share were $6.50 in the first quarter of 2023 versus $7.96 in the first quarter of 2022.<\/p>\n
\nCommenting on the results, Daniel L. Jones, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer of Encore Wire Corporation, said, \u201cThe strong results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2023 mark our eighth consecutive quarter of elevated margins. Stable demand in the quarter, coupled with continued domestic and global uncertainties and persistent tightness in the availability of copper, drove metal prices higher in the quarter while other raw material costs remained fairly flat. Our key suppliers continue to perform at a high level which positioned us favorably to meet customer demand in a timely manner. By continuing to execute on our core values of providing unbeatable customer service and high order fill rates, ongoing margin abatement remained gradual in the first quarter of 2023. I continue to believe that our operational agility, speed to market, and deep supplier relationships remain competitive advantages in serving our customers\u2019 evolving needs. We remain committed to reinvesting in our business with current and planned projects focused on increasing capacity, efficiency and vertical integration across our campus. We also remain committed to shareholder capital return as evidenced by our share repurchases in the quarter.<\/p>\n
\nWe continue to believe Encore Wire remains well positioned to capture market share in the current economic environment. As we address the near-term challenges, we remain focused on the long-term opportunities for our business. We believe that our superior order fill rates and deep vertical integration continue to enhance our competitive position. As orders come in from electrical contractors, our distributors can continue to depend on us for quick deliveries coast to coast.<\/p>\n
\nOur balance sheet remains very strong. We have no long-term debt, and our revolving line of credit remains untapped. We had $697.4 million in cash at the end of the quarter. During the first quarter, we repurchased 702,478 shares of our common stock for a total cash outlay of $127.1 million. Since the first quarter of 2020, we have repurchased 3,674,755 shares of our common stock at an average price of $119.38. We also declared a $0.02 cash dividend during the quarter.<\/p>\n
\nThe incremental investments announced in July 2021 continue in earnest, focused on broadening our position as a low-cost manufacturer in the sector and increasing manufacturing capacity to drive growth. In 2022 we began construction on a new, state of the art, cross-link polyethylene (XLPE) compounding facility to deepen vertical integration related to wire and cable insulation. XLPE insulation is used in many applications including Data Centers, Oil and Gas, Transit, Waste-Water Treatment facilities, Utilities, and Wind and Solar applications. We anticipate the new facility will be substantially completed by the end of the third quarter of 2023. Capital spending in 2023 through 2025 will further expand vertical integration in our manufacturing processes to reduce costs as well as modernize select wire manufacturing facilities to increase capacity and efficiency and improve our position as a sustainable and environmentally responsible company. Total capital expenditures were $148.4 million in 2022 and $31.8 million in the first quarter of 2023. We expect total capital expenditures to range from $160 – $180 million in 2023, $150 – $170 million in 2024, and $80 – $100 million in 2025. We expect to continue to fund these investments with existing cash reserves and operating cash flows.<\/p>\n
\nOur low-cost structure and strong balance sheet have allowed us the flexibility to adapt quickly to changing market conditions, and we believe they are continuing to prove valuable now. We thank our employees and associates for their outstanding effort and our shareholders for their continued support.\u201d<\/p>\n

\nAdditional Disclosures:<\/p>\n
\nThe term \u201cEBITDA\u201d is used by the Company in presentations, quarterly conference calls and other instances as appropriate. EBITDA is defined as net income before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization. The Company presents EBITDA because it is a required component of financial ratios reported by the Company to the Company\u2019s banks, and is also frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties, in addition to and not in lieu of measures of financial performance calculated and presented in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (\u201cGAAP\u201d), to compare to the performance of other companies who also publicize this information. EBITDA is not a measurement of financial performance calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered an alternative to net income as an indicator of the Company\u2019s operating performance or any other measure of financial performance calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP.<\/p>\n
\nThe Company has reconciled EBITDA with net income for fiscal years 1996 to 2022 on previous reports on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. EBITDA for each period pertinent to this press release is calculated and reconciled to net income as follows:<\/p>\n
