Management Commentary
"We closed out the year generating strong earnings growth and our fourth consecutive quarter of adjusted EBITDA margin expansion, primarily driven by the strategic self-improvement initiatives we implemented at the beginning of the year," said Ascent CEO Bryan Kitchen. "As we expected, sales volume and overall demand in the fourth quarter remained muted across both segments. However, through aggressive cost management, product line optimization, and better operational efficiencies, we were still able to expand our gross margin on a lower sales base and deliver an improved bottom line.
"Overall, we're proud of the transformation efforts we've implemented and executed throughout 2024. Through the intentional recapitalization of SG&A combined with stabilizing the operations of both segments, we have established a stronger foundation to build off of in 2025. We are entering the new year with positive momentum on our side as we are seeing more favorable post-election market dynamics and a growing pipeline of opportunities that we believe can deliver organic growth in the coming quarters. We remain on track towards our goal of delivering a more predictable, reliable, and profitable business model that creates durable value for our shareholders."
Fourth Quarter 2024 Financial Results
Net sales from continuing operations were $40.7 million compared to $41.2 million in the fourth quarter of 2023. The slight decline was a result of lower volume with higher pricing within the specialty chemicals segment, along with higher volume but lower pricing within the tubular products segment.
Gross profit from continuing operations increased 438% to $7.3 million, or 17.9% of net sales, compared to $(2.1) million, or (5.2)% of net sales, in the fourth quarter of 2023. The increase was primarily driven by continued cost management, improved strategic sourcing, and product line optimization.
Net income from continuing operations improved to $0.1 million, or $0.01 diluted earnings per share, compared to a net loss from continuing operations of $7.5 million, or $0.73 diluted loss per share, in the fourth quarter of 2023.
Adjusted EBITDA increased significantly to $2.6 million compared to $(5.9) million in the fourth quarter of 2023, with adjusted EBITDA margin increasing to 6.3% compared to (14.4)% in the prior year period. The improvement was primarily driven by the aforementioned cost and product mix optimization initiatives.
Full Year 2024 Financial Results
Net sales from continuing operations were $177.9 million compared to $193.2 million in 2023. The decrease was primarily attributable to soft demand dynamics throughout much of the year across both segments.
Gross profit from continuing operations improved significantly to $22.1 million, or 12.4% of net sales, compared to $1.5 million or 0.8% of net sales in 2023. The increase in gross profit was primarily driven by cost reduction measures for labor and materials combined with product line optimization, which the Company implemented throughout 2024.
Net loss from continuing operations was $11.2 million, or $1.11 diluted loss per share, compared to a net loss from continuing operations of $34.2 million, or $3.37 diluted loss per share, in 2023. During the year, the Company recorded a $6.2 million non-cash, one-time tax charge related to a valuation allowance against the Company's deferred tax assets.
Adjusted EBITDA increased significantly to $4.0 million compared to $(15.9) million in 2023. Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of net sales was 2.3% compared to (8.2)% in the prior year. The increase is primarily attributable to continued gains in operational efficiencies and the aforementioned cost and product mix optimization initiatives.

Forward-Looking Statements
This press release may include "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and other applicable federal securities laws. All statements that are not historical facts are forward-looking statements. Forward looking statements can be identified through the use of words such as "estimate," "project," "intend," "expect," "believe," "should," "anticipate," "hope," "optimistic," "plan," "outlook," "should," "could," "may" and similar expressions. The forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties which could cause actual results to differ materially from historical results or those anticipated. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements and to review the risks as set forth in more detail in Ascent Industries Co.'s Securities and Exchange Commission filings, including our Annual Report on Form 10-K, which filings are available from the SEC or on our website. Ascent Industries Co. assumes no obligation to update any forward-looking information included in this release.
Non-GAAP Financial Information
Financial statement information included in this earnings release includes non-GAAP (Generally Accepted Accounting Principles) measures and should be read along with the accompanying tables which provide a reconciliation of non-GAAP measures to GAAP measures.
Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure that the Company believes is useful to investors in evaluating its results to determine the value of a company. An item is excluded in the measure if its periodic value is inconsistent and sufficiently material that not identifying the item would render period comparability less meaningful to the reader or if including the item provides a clearer representation of normalized periodic earnings. The Company excludes in Adjusted EBITDA two categories of items: 1) Base EBITDA components, including: interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, and 2) Material transaction costs including: goodwill impairment, asset impairment, gain on lease modification, stock-based compensation, non-cash lease cost, acquisition costs and other fees, shelf registration costs, loss on extinguishment of debt, retention costs and restructuring & severance costs from net income (loss).
Management believes that these non-GAAP measures are useful because they are key measures used by our management team to evaluate our operating performance, generate future operating plans and make strategic decisions as well as allow readers to compare the financial results between periods. Non-GAAP measures should not be considered as an alternative to any measure of performance or financial condition as promulgated under GAAP, and investors should consider the Company's performance and financial condition as reported under GAAP and all other relevant information when assessing the performance or financial condition of the Company. Non-GAAP measures have limitations as analytical tools, and investors should not consider them in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of the Company's results or financial condition as reported under GAAP.

1 The term Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure that the Company believes is useful to investors in evaluating its results to determine the value of a company. An item is excluded in the measure if its periodic value is inconsistent and sufficiently material that not identifying the item would render period comparability less meaningful to the reader or if including the item provides a clearer representation of normalized periodic earnings. The Company excludes in Adjusted EBITDA two categories of items: 1) Base EBITDA components, including: interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, and 2) Material transaction costs including: goodwill impairment, asset impairment, gain on lease modification, stock-based compensation, non-cash lease cost, acquisition costs and other fees, retention costs and restructuring & severance costs from net income. For a reconciliation of this non-GAAP measure to the most comparable GAAP equivalent, refer to the Reconciliation of Net Income (Loss) to Adjusted EBITDA. |
