VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Nov. 07, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Westport Fuel Systems Inc. ("Westport") (TSX:WPRT, NASDAQ:WPRT) reported financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2022, and provided an update on operations. All figures are in U.S. dollars unless otherwise stated.

THIRD QUARTER 2022 HIGHLIGHTS

Revenues decreased 4% to $71.2 million compared to the same period in 2021, primarily driven by the weakening of the Euro against the U.S. dollar. Excluding foreign currency translation, total revenues would have increased by 10%.

Higher sales volumes for the independent aftermarket ("IAM") business unit in Eastern Europe, Algeria, and Peru, partially offset by lower sales volume to Russian customers.

Revenues from Original Equipment Manufacturer ("OEM") business unit customers were comparable to the same period 2021, including increased sales of hydrogen, electronics and fuel storage products, offset by lower sales of CNG and LNG products due to higher natural gas prices in the European market.

Net loss of $11.9 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2022, compared to a net loss of $5.8 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 Cummins Westport Inc ("CWI") joint venture and foreign exchange loss.

Cash and cash equivalents were $86.5 million at the end of the third quarter of 2022. Cash used in operating activities during the quarter was $8.6 million, due to operating losses of $10.9 million and debt repayment of $3.6 million, partially offset by net changes to working capital.

Adjusted EBITDA^[1] of negative $4.5 million compared to negative $1.4 million for the same period in 2021.

Announced impressive hydrogen HPDI test results from the demonstration program with Scania. Applying Westport's HPDI technology fueled with hydrogen to Scania's 13-Litre CBE1 platform, demonstrated peak Brake Thermal Efficiency of 51.5% complemented by 48.7% at road load conditions, with engine-out NOx similar to the base diesel engine.

[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.

"While economies and our industry continue to be hit with significant headwinds including inflation and dramatically rising energy costs, we are seeing some positive trends emerge and are optimistic about our long-term future. While these headwinds are expected to continue, Westport is preparing for growth and profitability, focused on driving value in new and existing passenger car markets, working directly with key OEMs to advance evaluation of our H₂ HPDI™ solution for long-haul, heavy-duty transport, and enhancing margins throughout the business. Absent the effects of foreign exchange changes, revenue would have increased by 10% year-over-year, a significant improvement given the environment our industry has been facing.

Sales growth of our fuel storage, hydrogen components, and electronics products along with continued growth in volumes to our OEM customers in India all drove increased revenue in our OEM business this quarter. Unfortunately, these strengths were offset by the impact of high natural gas prices on European market sales to light-duty and heavy-duty OEMs.

Looking to the future, the world's population continues to grow, and the need to move freight follows this growth. Affordable solutions for heavy-duty, long-haul transport are required and our H₂ HPDI™ fuel systems meet the demand for a high performance, high efficiency, clean, affordable solution.

We are thrilled with the recent results of our demonstration program with Scania. Our solution not only allows OEMs to preserve their existing manufacturing infrastructure and associated substantial capital investments, but it also demonstrates that an engine using HPDI with hydrogen can achieve significantly better performance and efficiency than with diesel fuel. These results are a step forward in demonstrating our H₂ HPDI™ fuel system is a cost-competitive pathway to reduce CO₂ emissions from heavy-duty transportation applications that require robust and reliable solutions.

Despite the decrease in business in Russia due to the Russian/Ukraine conflict and related sanctions, our team was diligent in expanding into new markets and deepening our work in current markets, achieving revenue above what we delivered last year in Euros , even with the impact of the foreign exchange. Light duty vehicles represent 95% of the vehicles on the road and contribute 75% of on-road CO₂ emissions. Battery electric is one possible solution for some customers, in some markets, however there are plenty of global markets and customers who cannot afford expensive vehicles. Battery electric vehicles are expensive. Westport delivers affordable, low-carbon solutions for global customers who cannot afford luxury vehicle prices.

We remain confident that our clean and affordable products will be an important part of the solution and competitive in global markets."

David M. Johnson, Chief Executive Officer

Revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2022, decreased 4% year-over-year to $71.2 million primarily driven by the weakening of the Euro against the U.S. dollar's significant impact on the translation of the financial results to U.S. dollars, lower sales volumes to our initial OEM launch partner due to fuel price volatility in Europe and contractual decrease in sales price year over year. This was partially offset by the increased sales volumes from IAM, fuel storage, hydrogen, electronics businesses, despite lower sales volumes to the Russian market resulting from the impact of sanctions from the ongoing Russian-Ukraine conflict, and softness in demand from higher relative CNG and LNG fuel prices in Europe.

Net loss was $11.9 million for the third quarter of 2022, compared to a net loss of $5.8 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 foreign exchange loss. The prior year quarter had an additional $4.1 million in equity income primarily from CWI. This was partially offset by higher year-over-year gross margins of $1.2 million.

Westport generated negative $4.5 million in Adjusted EBITDA during the third quarter of 2022, compared to negative $1.4 million Adjusted EBITDA for the same period in 2021.

Original Equipment Manufacturer Segment

Revenue for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, was $44.1 million and $150.2 million, respectively, compared with $48.0 million and $138.2 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021. The decrease in revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2022 was primarily driven by the 16% decrease in the average Euro rate versus the U.S. dollar for the third quarter which offset the higher sales volumes of our fuel storage, DOEM, hydrogen, and electronics businesses period over period. Our heavy-duty OEM sales volumes decreased 16% year-over-year mainly due to the unfavorable fuel price differential between LNG and diesel in Europe caused by the shortage of LNG supply.

The increase in revenue for the nine months ended was primarily driven by the additional revenues from increased sales volumes to OEMs in India of our light-duty CNG products where we continue to see strong government support and policies in place for the significant expansion of CNG vehicles, increased sales volumes of our electronics, fuel storage, hydrogen and DOEM products. This was partially offset by lower sales volumes in Western Europe for our light-duty OEM products, lower revenues year over year in our heavy-duty OEM business, and the foreign exchange impact of the depreciation of the Euro.

For the third quarter, gross margin increased by $1.6 million to $4.7 million, or 11% of revenue, compared to $3.1 million, or 6% of revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2021. The improvement was driven by increased sales volumes in multiple OEM businesses, improved sales mix of heavy-duty OEM system parts, partially offset by the annual contractual price reduction to our initial OEM launch partner and decrease in gross margin in our light-duty OEM business due to increase in sales volumes to emerging markets with lower gross margins. Further, we continue to incur higher production input costs from supply chain challenges, and inflation in logistics, utilities, and other costs, which we have only partially been able to pass on to our OEM customers.

Year to date, gross margin decreased by $0.9 million to $14.4 million, or 10% of revenue, compared to $15.3 million, or 11% of revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. Gross margin and gross margin percentage from our HPDI 2.0 fuel systems product will vary based on production and sales volumes, levels of development work, successful implementation of initiatives to reduce the cost of input materials, and foreign exchange rates. Margin pressure is expected to continue through 2022 as production costs and contracted price discounts with the existing OEM customers are only partially offset by cost reductions of materials until a higher scale is achieved. Despite headwinds from higher LNG fuel prices relative to diesel, sales volumes to our initial OEM launch partner for the first nine months of 2022 were comparable to the prior year. Higher LNG prices are decreasing the demand for LNG trucks. Until relative LNG prices fall relative to diesel, we expect HPDI 2.0 fuel system sales growth to our initial OEM launch partner may be slowed. Partially offsetting the decrease in gross margin includes the increased gross margin from our fuel storage, hydrogen, electronics and DOEM businesses.

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. We are increasingly optimistic about marketing HPDI into new geographies such as India where we have already seen OEM interest in the product. 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.

Independent Aftermarket Segment

Revenue for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, was $27.1 million and $77.5 million, respectively, compared with $26.3 million and $91.6 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021. The revenue increase compared to the same quarter last year was driven primarily by higher sales volumes in Eastern Europe, especially Poland, Algeria and Peru.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, the decrease in revenue was primarily driven by lower sales volumes to the Russian market due to the ongoing Russia-Ukraine conflict and related sanctions, lower sales volumes to Eastern Europe and Egypt and the aforementioned foreign exchange impact. The prior year included a large one-time infrastructure project of $5.3 million in Tanzania to build fueling infrastructure to enable the sale and operation of gaseous fueled vehicles.

For the third quarter, gross margin decreased by $0.4 million to $6.6 million, or 24% of revenue, compared to $7.0 million, or 27% of revenue, for the three months ended September 30, 2021. Gross margin decreased by $6.3 million to $17.3 million, or 22% of revenue, for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, compared to $23.6 million, or 26% of revenue, for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. The decrease in gross margin percentage for both the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, was primarily driven by higher production input costs incurred in materials, transportation, and energy costs caused by the global supply chain shortage, inflation, and European energy supply shortage. The loss of higher margin sales volumes to the Russian market contributed $1.1 million to the decrease in margins.

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 as 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.
