Ferrous, Nonferrous and Finished Steel Sales Volumes Up Sequentially

Radius Board Declares Quarterly Dividend

PORTLAND, Ore., July 02, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Radius Recycling, Inc. (NASDAQ: RDUS) today reported results for the third quarter of fiscal 2024 ended May 31, 2024.

The Company’s reported and adjusted results differed significantly this quarter. Due primarily to a non-cash goodwill impairment charge reflecting the challenging market conditions for recycled metals experienced during the last year, the Company reported a loss per share from continuing operations of $(6.97) and a net loss of $(199) million in the third quarter. These results included a goodwill impairment charge of $216 million or $(6.21) per share net of taxes and compared to a reported loss per share of $(1.19) and net loss of $(34) million in the second quarter of fiscal 2024.

Adjusted EBITDA in the third quarter was $9 million, an improvement from $3 million in the prior quarter. The sequential improvement reflected higher nonferrous and ferrous sales volumes, benefits from cost reduction and productivity improvements, and higher insurance recoveries, partially offset by lower ferrous selling prices and compressed metal spreads resulting from continuing tight ferrous supply flows. Adjusted loss per share from continuing operations was $(0.59) in the third quarter compared to an adjusted loss per share of $(1.04) in the second quarter of fiscal 2024.

Nonferrous and ferrous market conditions reflected diverging trends in the third quarter. Global demand for nonferrous recycled metals strengthened throughout the quarter, leading to a 10% sequential increase in average net selling prices and 4% higher sales volumes. However, global demand for ferrous recycled metals was softer sequentially, due in part to continued elevated levels of Chinese steel exports, which led to a 9% decline in average net selling prices. Ferrous sales volumes increased 13% sequentially, benefiting from seasonally higher flows and the sales of cargoes delayed at the end of the prior quarter. Driven by seasonally stronger construction activity, finished steel sales volumes increased 11% sequentially, and rolling mill utilization was 88% compared to 81% in the prior quarter.

Tamara Lundgren, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, said, “Although market conditions continued to remain challenging during the quarter, our operating performance reflected the benefits from delivering our cost reduction and productivity improvement programs and successfully increasing sales volumes for all of our products and services.”   

“In the current market environment, the constrained supply of unprocessed recycled metals is the main driver leading to compressed margins. We expect that as manufacturing activity improves and construction activity picks up, supply flows should expand. Independent of the timing of that recovery, we are continuing to see benefits from progress on our strategic initiatives which include investments in advanced nonferrous metal recovery technologies and expansion of our recycling services platform.” Ms. Lundgren continued, “With our 100+ operating facilities producing annual recycled ferrous volumes of over four million tons, nonferrous volumes of over 700 million pounds, and low carbon and net zero carbon emission GRNTM finished steel products of more than 500 thousand tons, and our 3PRTM service and supply chain solution that enables our customers to increase their recycling rates, we are well-positioned to benefit from demand associated with decarbonization, infrastructure investment, stronger global manufacturing activity, and declines in interest rates.”

Third Quarter Fiscal 2024 Financial Review and Analysis

Due to the decline in ferrous prices during the quarter, metal spreads compressed and contributed to an average inventory accounting detriment of approximately $3 per ferrous ton. The Company recognized insurance recoveries of $7 million in the third quarter, compared to $2 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2024, reflecting final settlement of certain property damage and business interruption matters that had occurred in prior periods.

During the third quarter, the Company achieved approximately three-quarters of the quarterly run rate of benefits associated with its previously announced $70 million annual cost reduction and productivity improvement plan. The Company incurred related restructuring charges and other exit-related costs of approximately $3 million during the quarter.

Operating cash outflow in the third quarter was $1 million. Total debt was $411 million and debt, net of cash was $386 million at the end of the quarter. Capital expenditures were $16 million in the third quarter. The effective tax rate for the third quarter was a benefit of 18% on GAAP results and 27% on adjusted non-GAAP results.

During the third quarter, the Company returned capital to shareholders through its 121st consecutive quarterly dividend.

Subsequent Event

As previously reported, on June 17, 2024, the Company and its lenders executed an amendment to the Company’s existing credit agreement, which provides for secured revolving credit facilities of up to $800 million and C$15 million that mature in August 2027. The amendment provides for, among other things, a relaxation of the financial maintenance covenants applicable to the four fiscal quarter periods ending May 31, 2024 through February 28, 2025 by replacing the covenant requiring compliance with a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio with a covenant requiring compliance with minimum permitted interest coverage and asset coverage ratios.

Declaration of Quarterly Dividend

The Board of Directors declared a cash dividend of $0.1875 per common share, payable August 5, 2024 to shareholders of record on July 22, 2024. The Company has paid a dividend every quarter since going public in November 1993.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This press release contains performance based on adjusted diluted earnings per share from continuing operations attributable to Radius shareholders, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA per ferrous ton, and adjusted selling, general, and administrative expense which are non-GAAP financial measures as defined under SEC rules. As required by SEC rules, the Company has provided a reconciliation of these measures for each period discussed to the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measure. Management believes that providing these non-GAAP financial measures adds a meaningful presentation of our results from business operations excluding adjustments for goodwill impairment charges, restructuring charges and other exit-related activities, charges for legacy environmental matters (net of recoveries), amortization of capitalized cloud computing implementation costs, other asset impairment charges, business development costs not related to ongoing operations including pre-acquisition expenses, and the income tax benefit allocated to these adjustments, items which are not related to underlying business operational performance, and improves the period-to-period comparability of our results from business operations. We believe that presenting debt, net of cash is useful to investors as a measure of our leverage, as cash and cash equivalents can be used, among other things, to repay indebtedness. These non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to, but not as a substitute for, the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measures.

(1)   Legal and environmental charges, net of recoveries, for legacy environmental matters including those related to the Portland Harbor Superfund site and to other legacy environmental loss contingencies.
(2)   Amortization of cloud computing software costs consists of expense recognized in cost of goods sold and selling, general, and administrative expense resulting from amortization of capitalized implementation costs for cloud computing IT systems. This expense is not included in depreciation and amortization. No amortization of cloud computing software costs was incurred prior to the first quarter of fiscal 2024; therefore, prior period Adjusted EBITDA amounts are not impacted.
(3)   For the three months ended May 31, 2024, February 29, 2024 and May 31, 2023, asset impairment charges included $73 thousand ($0.00 per share), $272 thousand ($0.01 per share), and $1 million ($0.05 per share), respectively, reported within “Other loss, net” on the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations. For the nine months ended May 31, 2024 and 2023, asset impairment charges included $564 thousand ($0.02 per share) and $5 million ($0.19 per share), respectively, reported within “Other loss, net” on the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations.
(4)   Income tax allocated to the aggregate adjustments reconciling reported and adjusted diluted (loss) earnings per share from continuing operations attributable to Radius shareholders is determined based on a tax provision calculated with and without the adjustments.
