CHICAGO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--JBT Corporation (NYSE: JBT), a leading global technology solutions provider to high-value segments of the food & beverage industry, today reported results for the second quarter of 2024.
"As expected, JBT's second quarter orders improved sequentially driven primarily by an initial recovery in equipment demand from North American poultry customers and continued strength in warehouse automation," said Brian Deck, President and Chief Executive Officer. "Our second quarter revenue fell short of our expectations, much of which we expect will be recovered in the back half of the year."
Comparisons in this news release are to the comparable period of the prior year, unless otherwise noted. An earnings presentation with supplemental information is also available on the Company's Investor Relations website at https://ir.jbtc.com/events-and-presentations/.
Second Quarter 2024 Results
AeroTech's financial results were transitioned to discontinued operations beginning in the second quarter of 2023, and prior period financial results have been recast accordingly. The below paragraphs reflect JBT's results from continuing operations.
"Our second quarter results were impacted by a shortfall in revenue, due in part to the performance of book and ship orders and a temporary delay in progress on over time projects and aftermarket parts orders from a system upgrade," said Matt Meister, Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer. "With the system implementation now stabilized and our expected strong backlog conversion in the second half of the year, we are anticipating double-digit year-over-year revenue growth in both the third and fourth quarter."
Second quarter 2024 revenue of $402 million decreased 6 percent year over year with a 1 percent unfavorable impact from foreign exchange translation. Income from continuing operations of $31 million increased 8 percent. Included in income from continuing operations was a $9 million net interest expense benefit and $9 million in discrete tax benefits.
Adjusted EBITDA of $64 million decreased 11 percent and adjusted EBITDA margin of 15.8 percent declined 90 basis points as the benefits from restructuring and supply chain initiatives were more than offset by the impact of lower volume. Sequentially, revenue and adjusted EBITDA improved 3 percent and 11 percent, respectively.
During the second quarter of 2024, JBT realized approximately $3 million in restructuring savings and achieved cumulative annual run-rate cost savings of approximately $17 million exiting the quarter. Diluted earnings per share (EPS) of $0.95 increased 7 percent, and adjusted EPS of $1.05 increased 8 percent.
Second quarter 2024 backlog totaled $697 million, and orders were $437 million. Orders improved 13 percent sequentially driven by an increase in equipment demand from North American poultry customers and fruit and vegetable processing, along with continued strength in warehouse automation. North American poultry market fundamentals are stabilizing and customer profitability continues to strengthen, and as a result, JBT expects continued improvement in equipment demand within this market in the second half of 2024.
JBT generated year to date operating cash flow from continuing operations of $32 million and free cash flow of $14 million. JBT's net leverage ratio was 0.6x net debt to trailing twelve months adjusted EBITDA.
2024 Outlook
JBT updated its year-over-year revenue growth guidance to 3 to 5 percent, primarily reflecting year-to-date performance, which is partially offset by additional warehouse automation growth in the back half of 2024. As a result of the revenue update, the Company narrowed its full year 2024 guidance for adjusted EBITDA and EPS. The Company is maintaining its adjusted EBITDA margin forecast and is expecting margins to improve sequentially in both the third and fourth quarter of 2024.
For the full year 2024, JBT now expects to incur approximately $40 million in pre-closing M&A costs related to the combination with Marel. The Company updated its guidance for income from continuing operations and GAAP EPS to reflect the estimate for M&A costs.

Combination with Marel
On June 24, 2024, JBT formally issued the voluntary takeover offer to acquire all issued and outstanding shares of Marel (ICL: Marel). Subject to a proration feature, Marel shareholders will have the option to elect to receive either all cash, all JBT common stock, or a combination of cash and JBT common stock in respect of each Marel share. This proration feature will result in an overall consideration mix of approximately 65 percent stock and approximately 35 percent cash. Marel shareholders will receive, in the aggregate, €950 million in cash and hold approximately a 38 percent ownership interest in the combined company. The offer will expire on September 2, 2024, unless such offer period is extended in accordance with the terms of the definitive agreement between JBT and Marel.
JBT and Marel continue to make meaningful progress on the requirements to close the transaction and are beginning integration planning to ensure alignment and day one readiness. The waiting period for JBT and Marel’s filing under the U.S. Hart-Scott-Rodino Act expired and work to obtain other required approvals under competition and similar laws is in process. JBT and Marel have submitted filing materials in all relevant jurisdictions and are now engaging with regulators on follow up questions and requests. On August 8, 2024, JBT will hold a special meeting of its stockholders to, among other things, vote on a proposal to approve the issuance of JBT common stock to Marel shareholders in connection with the transaction. The Company is also actively working on the secondary listing application for Nasdaq Iceland. JBT continues to plan for a transaction close by year end 2024.

The above table reports adjusted income from continuing operations and adjusted diluted earnings per share from continuing operations, which are non-GAAP financial measures. We use these measures internally to make operating decisions and for the planning and forecasting of future periods, and therefore provide this information to investors because we believe it allows more meaningful period-to-period comparisons of our ongoing operating results, without the fluctuations in the amount of certain costs that do not reflect our underlying operating results.

(2) Pension expense, other than service cost is excluded as it represents all non service-related pension expense, which consists of non-cash interest cost, expected return on plan assets and amortization of actuarial gains and losses. |

The above table reports EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, which are non-GAAP financial measures. Given the Company’s focus on growth through acquisitions, management believes EBITDA facilitates an evaluation of business performance while excluding the impact of amortization due to the step up in value of intangible assets, and the depreciation of fixed assets. We use Adjusted EBITDA internally to make operating decisions and believe that adjusted EBITDA is useful to investors as a measure of the Company’s operational performance and a way to evaluate and compare operating performance against peers in the Company's industry.

The above table reports free cash flow, which is a non-GAAP financial measure. We use free cash flow internally as a key indicator of our liquidity and ability to service debt, invest in business combinations, and return money to shareholders and believe this information is useful to investors because it provides an understanding of the cash available to fund these initiatives. For free cash flow purposes, we consider contributions to pension plans to be more comparable to payment of debt, and therefore exclude these contributions from the calculation of free cash flow. |
