JACKSONVILLE, Fla.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Cadre Holdings, Inc. (NYSE: CDRE) ("Cadre" or "the Company"), a global leader in the manufacturing and distribution of safety equipment, announced today its consolidated operating results for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2023.
- Net sales of $124.6 million for the fourth quarter; net sales of $482.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2023
- Gross profit margin of 39.9% for the fourth quarter; gross profit margin of 41.6% for the year ended December 31, 2023
- Net income of $9.6 million, or $0.25 per diluted share, for the fourth quarter; net income of $38.6 million, or $1.02 per diluted share, for the year ended December 31, 2023
- Adjusted EBITDA of $20.7 million for the fourth quarter; Adjusted EBITDA of $85.8 million for year ended December 31, 2023
- Adjusted EBITDA margin of 16.6% for the fourth quarter; Adjusted EBITDA margin of 17.8% for the year ended December 31, 2023
- Declared quarterly cash dividend of $0.0875 per share in January 2024. On an annualized basis, this dividend represents an increase of $0.03 per share, or 9.4% per share, over the previous annualized dividend of $0.32 per share.
“2023 was a record year, reflective of Cadre’s outstanding strategic execution and the strong and recurring demand for our best-in-class, mission-critical safety equipment,” said Warren Kanders, CEO and Chairman. “Strong fourth quarter results capped off an outstanding year, in which we generated our highest annual revenue, Adjusted EBITDA, gross margin, and Adjusted EBITDA margin since inception. Based on the ongoing, successful implementation of the Cadre operating model, strong secular tailwinds, and confidence in our leading platform of premium safety brands moving forward, our 2024 guidance shared today implies at its midpoints full-year revenue and adjusted EBITDA growth next year of 16.5% and 23.5%, respectively.”
Mr. Kanders added, “M&A has been a key tenet of our strategy to seek to unlock long-term value, and we are pleased to have recently capitalized on attractive opportunities to add two high-margin safety businesses with recurring revenues. With the acquisition of ICOR Technology, we’ve considerably expanded our ability to provide mission-critical EOD robots to law enforcement agencies and military organizations. Additionally, the acquisition of Alpha Safety represents an important step in diversifying Cadre’s platform, as we enter an attractive new adjacent vertical with a large and growing total addressable market. Supported by a robust acquisition pipeline, as well as favorable industry dynamics, we believe Cadre is ideally positioned to continue to grow our platform and further enhance our market leadership over the long-term.”
Fourth Quarter and Year Ended 2023 Operating Results
For the quarter ended December 31, 2023, Cadre generated net sales of $124.6 million, as compared to $123.6 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2022. Net sales were impacted by a decrease in the Product segment primarily resulting from project timing in our explosive ordnance disposal (“EOD”) products which were offset by an increased demand for armor products, duty gear products and crowd control products. Net sales were also impacted by an increase in the Distribution segment primarily the result of agency demand for hard goods.
For the year ended December 31, 2023, Cadre generated net sales of $482.5 million, as compared to $457.8 million for the prior year period, mainly driven by higher demand for armor and crowd control products, as well as recent acquisitions, partially offset by a decrease from large international orders for EOD products fulfilled in the prior year.
For the quarter ended December 31, 2023, Cadre generated gross profit of $49.8 million, as compared to $48.5 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2022. For the year ended December 31, 2023, Cadre generated gross profit of $200.7 million, as compared to $175.7 million for the prior year period.
Gross profit margin was 39.9% for the quarter ended December 31, 2023, as compared to 39.2% for the quarter ended December 31, 2022 mainly driven by favorable pricing and product mix.
Gross profit margin was 41.6% for the year ended December 31, 2023, as compared to 38.4% for the prior year period, mainly driven by favorable pricing, product mix and productivity, partially offset by inflation and pressure from a stronger Mexican peso.
Net income was $9.6 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2023, as compared to net income of $6.6 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2022. The increase resulted primarily from increased net sales, unrealized foreign exchange and lower tax expense.
Net income was $38.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2023, as compared to net income of $5.8 million for the prior year period, primarily as a result of an increase in net sales and decreased stock-based compensation expense.
Cadre generated $20.7 million of Adjusted EBITDA for the quarter ended December 31, 2023, as compared to $22.4 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2022. Adjusted EBITDA margin was 16.6% for the quarter ended December 31, 2023, as compared to 18.1% for the prior year period.
Cadre generated $85.8 million of Adjusted EBITDA for the year ended December 31, 2023, as compared to $75.7 million for the prior year period. Adjusted EBITDA margin was 17.8% for the year ended December 31, 2023, as compared to 16.5% for the prior year period.
Product segment gross profit margin was 40.7% for the fourth quarter and 43.1% for the year ended December 31, 2023. This compares to 40.4% and 40.3% for the respective prior year periods.
Distribution segment gross profit margin was 23.9% for the fourth quarter and 23.5% for the year ended December 31, 2023. This compares to 21.8% and 21.1% for the respective prior year periods.
Liquidity, Cash Flows and Capital Allocation
- Cash and cash equivalents increased by $42.4 million from $45.3 million as of December 31, 2022 to $87.7 million as of December 31, 2023.
- Total debt decreased by $9.6 million from $149.7 million as of December 31, 2022, to $140.1 million as of December 31, 2023.
- Net debt (total debt net of cash and cash equivalents) decreased by $52.0 million from $104.4 million as of December 31, 2022, to $52.4 million as of December 31, 2023.
- Capital expenditures totaled $2.7 million for the fourth quarter and $7.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2023, compared with $1.5 million for the fourth quarter and $4.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2022.
Dividend
On January 23, 2024, the Company announced that its Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.0875 per share, or $0.35 per share on an annualized basis, which represents an increase of $0.03 per share, or 9.4% per share, over the previous annualized dividend of $0.32 per share. Cadre's dividend payment was made on February 16, 2024, to shareholders of record as of the close of business on the record date of February 2, 2024. The declaration of any future dividend is subject to the discretion of the Company's Board of Directors.
Acquisition of ICOR Technology
On January 10, 2024, Cadre announced the completion of its accretive acquisition of ICOR Technology, a leading manufacturer and distributor of EOD and tactical robots and specialized protective security equipment for EOD and military organizations worldwide. The purchase price was funded through available cash on the Company’s balance sheet.
Acquisition of Alpha Safety
On March 1, 2024, Cadre completed its accretive acquisition of Alpha Safety, a leading nuclear safety solutions company, for $106.5 million (including working capital and certain other adjustments at closing). The transaction was funded through available cash on the Company’s balance sheet and an increase in term debt under its existing credit facility.
2024 Outlook
For the full year 2024, Cadre expects to generate net sales in the range of $553 million to $572 million and Adjusted EBITDA in the range of $104 million and $108 million. We expect capital expenditures to be in the range of $8 million to $10 million. Cadre has not provided net income guidance due to the inherent difficulty of forecasting certain types of expenses and gains, which affect net income but not Adjusted EBITDA. Therefore, we do not provide a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA guidance to net income guidance.

Use of Non-GAAP Measures
The Company reports its financial results in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). The press release contains the non-GAAP measures: (i) earnings before interest, taxes, other income or expense, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”), (ii) adjusted EBITDA and (iii) adjusted EBITDA margin. The Company believes the presentation of these non-GAAP measures provides useful information for the understanding of its ongoing operations and enables investors to focus on period- over-period operating performance, and thereby enhances the user’s overall understanding of the Company’s current financial performance relative to past performance and provides, along with the nearest GAAP measures, a baseline for modeling future earnings expectations. Non-GAAP measures are reconciled to comparable GAAP financial measures within this press release. The Company cautions that non-GAAP measures should be considered in addition to, but not as a substitute for, the Company’s reported GAAP results. Additionally, the Company notes that there can be no assurance that the above referenced non-GAAP financial measures are comparable to similarly titled financial measures used by other publicly traded companies.
