    The Middleby Corporation (NASDAQ:MIDD), a leading worldwide manufacturer of equipment for the commercial foodservice, food processing, and residential kitchen industries, today reported net earnings for the third quarter of 2023.

    "We achieved solid results with growth in earnings, profits margins and cash flows. We are navigating the expected impact of inventory de-stocking at our Commercial Foodservice and Residential Kitchen segments, along with increasing headwinds from rising interest rate affecting near-term demand. Despite the challenging market conditions, we are successfully realizing the benefits from our long-term profitability goals. We continue to make significant progress executing on our long-term growth initiatives, focused on the launch of industry leading product innovations and establishment of differentiated go-to-market sales capabilities that we are confident will provide us with a growing competitive advantage," said Tim FitzGerald, CEO of The Middleby Corporation.

    2023 Third Quarter Financial Results

    • Net sales decreased 1.2% in the third quarter over the comparative prior year period. Excluding the impacts of acquisitions and foreign exchange rates, sales decreased 4.4% in the third quarter over the comparative prior year period.
    • Organic net sales (a non-GAAP measure) increases were reported for the Commercial Foodservice and Food Processing segments in the third quarter of 2023. A reconciliation of reported net sales by segment is as follows:

    "We continue to further strengthen our three industry-leading foodservice platforms through organic growth initiatives and strategic acquisitions. We are excited to have completed this quarter the acquisitions of Trade-Wind and Terry Water Solutions, further extending our complementary product offerings, and providing synergistic growth opportunities for our Commercial Foodservice and Residential Kitchen platforms."

    "Trade-Wind has experienced rapid growth as a technology leader in residential ventilation recognized for their spectacular designs. The Trade-Wind ventilation line-up perfectly complements our indoor and outdoor residential cooking brands, including Viking, Lynx, LaCornue and Aga and provides for an exciting combined cooking and ventilation offering in demand by our customers."

The combination of the Terry products across the Middleby family of products allows for an enhanced level of equipment performance with reduced scale build-up, lower maintenance costs, and a greater consistency and quality of food, ice and beverage. Utilizing a patented and environmentally friendly formulation of Citryne®, Terry products are food grade, biodegradable and treat water without the use of hazardous chemicals.

    (1) Includes amortization of deferred financing costs and convertible notes issuance costs.

    (2) Adjusted diluted weighted average number of shares was calculated based on excluding the dilutive effect of shares to be issued upon conversion of the notes to satisfy the amount in excess of the principal since the company's capped call offsets the dilutive impact of the shares underlying the convertible notes. The calculation of adjusted diluted earnings per share excludes the principal portion of the convertible notes as this will always be settled in cash.

    NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

    The company supplements its consolidated financial statements presented on a GAAP basis with this non-GAAP financial information to provide investors with greater insight, increase transparency and allow for a more comprehensive understanding of the information used by management in its financial and operational decision-making. The non-GAAP financial measures disclosed by the company should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP, and the financial results prepared in accordance with GAAP and reconciliations from these results should be carefully evaluated. In addition, the non-GAAP financial measures included in this press release do not have standard meanings and may vary from similarly titled non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies.

    The company believes that organic net sales growth, non-GAAP adjusted segment EBITDA, adjusted net earnings and adjusted diluted per share measures are useful as supplements to its GAAP results of operations to evaluate certain aspects of its operations and financial performance, and its management team primarily focuses on non-GAAP items in evaluating performance for business planning purposes. The company also believes that these measures assist it with comparing its performance between various reporting periods on a consistent basis, as these measures remove from operating results the impact of items that, in its opinion, do not reflect its core operating performance including, for example, intangibles amortization expense, impairment charges, restructuring expenses, and other charges which management considers to be outside core operating results.

    The company believes that free cash flow is an important measure of operating performance because it provides management and investors a measure of cash generated from operations that is available for mandatory payment obligations and investment opportunities, such as funding acquisitions, repaying debt and repurchasing our common stock.

    The company believes that its presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures is useful because it provides investors and securities analysts with the same information that Middleby uses internally for purposes of assessing its core operating performance.
