BRAMPTON, ON, Aug. 8, 2024 /PRNewswire/ - MDA Space Ltd. (TSX: MDA), a trusted space mission partner to the rapidly expanding global space industry, today announced its financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2024.

"The MDA Space team delivered a solid Q2 driven by strong execution as we continued to convert our backlog and deliver on our customer commitments," said Mike Greenley, Chief Executive Officer of MDA Space. "With robust momentum in our end-markets, we also continue to grow our backlog, which at quarter-end stood at a record $4.6 billion. Notable awards in Q2 included a $1 billion contract from the Canadian Space Agency for the next phases of the Canadarm3 program that will see us finalizing the design and carrying out the construction of the robotic system and ground control segment."

"During the quarter we also continued to advance the manufacturing of MDA CHORUS(TM), our next generation Earth Observation constellation. We unveiled additional features including a new vessel detection onboard processing demonstration capability to enable future rapid delivery of data and actionable insights for maritime customers," continued Mr. Greenley.

"Our teams were also busy advancing a number of programs including Telesat Lightspeed where MDA Space is the prime contractor to deliver 198 digital low earth orbit satellites. At quarter-end, we had approximately 75% of the supplier base for the program under contract, setting the stage for work volumes to accelerate in the second half of 2024 consistent with our full year plan."

"Given strong operational performance year-to-date, we are updating our 2024 financial guidance and expect to be free cash flow positive in 2024 as we look to deliver another successful year."

Q2 2024 HIGHLIGHTS

    --  Backlog of $4.6 billion at quarter-end continued to build and was up
        318% compared to Q2 2023. The increase in backlog is driven by new order
        bookings including the $1 billion award for Phases C/D of the Canadarm3
        program announced in Q2 2024 and $2.4 billion Telesat Lightspeed LEO
        constellation award announced in Q3 2023.


    --  Revenues of $242.0 million in Q2 2024 were up 23% YoY driven by higher
        work volumes across our three business areas, with strong contributions
        from the Robotics & Space Operations and Satellite Systems businesses.


    --  Adjusted EBITDA of $48.7 million in Q2 2024 compared to $40.4 million in
        Q2 2023, representing an increase of $8.3 million (or 21%) YoY. Adjusted
        EBITDA margin of 20.1% in Q2 2024 is consistent with the Company's full
        year margin guidance of 19-20% and compares to adjusted EBITDA margin of
        20.6% reported in the second quarter of 2023.


    --  Adjusted net income for Q2 2024 was $23.4 million compared to $21.9
        million in Q2 2023, representing an increase of $1.5 million (or 7%) YoY
        driven by higher operating income. Adjusted diluted earnings per share
        of $0.19 in Q2 2024 compared to $0.18 in Q2 2023.


    --  Operating cash flow was $149.0 million in Q2 2024 compared to $38.9
        million in Q2 2023. The year-over-year increase in operating cash flow
        was driven by positive working capital contributions primarily related
        to the Telesat Lightspeed program.
    --  At quarter-end, net debt to adjusted EBITDA ratio was 2.0x compared to
        2.4x as of December 2023 (2.6x as of March 31, 2024) as the Company
        utilized its strong operating cash flow in Q2 2024 to make repayments to
        its revolving credit facility and deleverage the balance sheet while
        continuing to invest in its growth initiatives.

2024 FINANCIAL OUTLOOK

As a trusted mission partner and leading global space technology provider, we are leveraging our capabilities and expertise to execute on targeted growth strategies across our end markets and business areas. Our strategic initiatives, which span across our three businesses, include investing in next generation space technology and services, expanding our presence in high growth markets and geographies, scaling and expanding skills, talent and operations to meet current and future market demand and leveraging strategic M&A to complement organic growth. We continue to make good progress against our long-term strategic plan.

MDA Space is well positioned to capitalize on strong customer demand and robust market activity given our diverse and proven technology offerings. Our growth pipeline is significant and underpinned by existing and new programs and our book of business is healthy. We see activities ramping up in line with our expectations and are encouraged by the team's solid execution.

For fiscal 2024, we are raising our full year revenue guidance to $1,020 - $1,060 million from $950 - $1,050 million previously, representing robust year-over-year growth of approximately 30% at the mid-point of guidance compared to 2023 levels. We continue to expect revenue growth to accelerate in the second half of 2024 as we ramp up work volumes on a number of programs. We are narrowing our 2024 adjusted EBITDA guidance to $200 - $210 million from $190 - $210 million previously, representing approximately 19% - 20% adjusted EBITDA margin. We are narrowing our 2024 capital expenditures range to $200 - $220 million from $210 - $230 million previously, comprising primarily of growth investments to support CHORUS and the previously outlined growth initiatives across our three business areas. Additionally, as a result of favourable working capital contributions related to the Telesat Lightspeed program, we now expect to generate free cash flow and continue to deleverage our balance sheet in 2024.

For Q3 2024, we expect revenues to be $270 - $280 million as we continue to execute on our backlog.

Revenues

Consolidated revenues for the second quarter of 2024 were $242.0 million, representing an increase of $46.0 million (or 23.5%) from the second quarter of 2023. The year-over-year increase in revenues was driven by higher work volumes across our three business areas, with strong contributions from our Robotics & Space Operations and Satellite Systems businesses.

By business area, revenues in Geointelligence for the second quarter of 2024 were $54.9 million, which represents an increase of $7.0 million (or 14.6%) from the same period in 2023 reflecting higher work volume on the CSC program. Revenues in Robotics & Space Operations for the second quarter of 2024 were $78.3 million, which represents an increase of $19.6 million (or 33.4%) from the same period in 2023. The year-over-year increase is primarily driven by higher volume of work performed on the Canadarm3 program. Revenues in Satellite Systems for the second quarter of 2024 were $108.8 million, which represents an increase of $19.4 million (or 21.7%) from the same period in 2023 driven by higher contributions from new programs including Telesat Lightspeed in Q2 2024.

Consolidated revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2024 were $451.1 million, representing an increase of $53.2 million (or 13.4%) from the same period of 2023. The year-over-year increase in revenues was primarily driven by increased volume from our Robotics & Space Operations and Satellite Systems businesses.

By business area, revenues in Geointelligence for the first six months of 2024 were $106.4 million, which represents an increase of $7.2 million (or 7.3%) from the same period in 2023 reflecting higher work volume on the CSC program. Revenues in Robotics & Space Operations for the first six months of 2024 were $148.6 million, which represents an increase of $27.0 million (or 22.2%) from the same period in 2023. The year-over-year increase is primarily driven by the higher volume of work performed on the Canadarm3 program. Revenues in Satellite Systems for the first six months of 2024 were $196.1 million, which represents an increase of $19.0 million (or 10.7%) from the same period in 2023 driven by higher contributions from new programs including the Telesat Lightspeed program.

Gross Profit and Gross Margin

Gross profit reflects our revenues less cost of revenues. Q2 2024 gross profit of $66.2 million represents a $4.9 million (or 8.0%) increase over Q2 2023 driven by higher work volume in the current quarter. Gross margin in Q2 2024 was 27.4%, which is in line with the Company's expectations and compares to gross margin of 31.3% in Q2 2023. The year- over-year change in gross margin is driven by evolving program mix and higher depreciation expense as new assets come into service.

For the six months ended June 30, 2024, gross profit of $124.1 million represents a $4.4 million (or 3.4%) decrease over 2023 levels. Gross margin for the six months ended June 30, 2024 was 27.5% which is in line with the Company's expectations and compares to 32.3% in Q2 2023. The year-over-year change in gross profit and gross margin metrics is driven by evolving program mix and higher depreciation expense as new assets come into service.

Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin

Adjusted EBITDA for the second quarter of 2024 was $48.7 million compared with $40.4 million for the second quarter of 2023, representing an increase of $8.3 million (or 20.5%) year-over-year driven by higher volume of work and steady operating expenses. Adjusted EBITDA margin of 20.1% for the second quarter of 2024 is consistent with the Company's full year margin guidance of 19-20% and compares to adjusted EBITDA margin of 20.6% reported in the second quarter of 2023.

Adjusted EBITDA for the six months ended June 30, 2024 was $90.7 million compared with $89.3 million for the same period in 2023, representing an increase of $1.4 million (or 1.6%) year-over-year. The improvement was driven by higher volumes of work performed year-over-year somewhat offset by program mix. Adjusted EBITDA margin was 20.1% for the six months ended June 30, 2024 compared with 22.4% in 2023.

Adjusted Net Income

Adjusted net income for the second quarter of 2024 was $23.4 million compared with $21.9 million for the second quarter of 2023, representing an increase of $1.5 million (or 6.8%) year-over-year driven by higher operating income in the latest quarter.

Adjusted net income for the six months ended June 30, 2024 was $41.9 million compared with $48.3 million for the same period in 2023, representing a decrease of $6.4 million (or 13.3%) year-over-year driven by the aforementioned gross profit variance.

Backlog

Backlog is comprised of our remaining performance obligations which represent the transaction price of firm orders less inception to date revenue recognized and excludes unexercised contract options and indefinite delivery or indefinite quantity contracts. Backlog as at June 30, 2024 was $4,596.0 million, an increase of $3,497.7 million compared with the backlog at June 30, 2023 driven by new order bookings, partially offset by continued conversion of our backlog into revenue. The following table shows the build up of backlog for Q2 2024 as compared with the same period in 2023.

NON-IFRS FINANCIAL MEASURES

This press release refers to certain non-IFRS measures. These measures are not recognized measures under IFRS, do not have a standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS and therefore may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. Rather, these measures are provided as additional information to complement those IFRS measures by providing further understanding of our results of operations from management's perspective. Accordingly, the measures should not be considered in isolation nor as a substitute for analysis of our financial information reported under IFRS. We use non-IFRS measures, including EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Earnings per Share, Order Bookings, Net Debt and Free Cash Flow, to provide investors with supplemental measures of our operating performance and thus highlight trends in our core business that may not otherwise be apparent when relying solely on IFRS measures. We define EBITDA as net income (loss) before: i) depreciation and amortization expenses, ii) provision for (recovery of) income taxes, and iii) finance costs. Adjusted EBITDA is calculated by adding to and deducting from EBITDA, as applicable, certain expenses, costs, charges or benefits incurred in such period which in management's view are either not indicative of underlying business performance or impact the ability to assess the operating performance of our business, including i) unrealized foreign exchange gain or loss ii) unrealized gain or loss on financial instruments and iii) share-based compensation expenses, and iv) other items that may arise from time to time. Adjusted EBITDA margin represents Adjusted EBITDA divided by revenue. Order Bookings is the dollar sum of contract values of firm customer contracts. Adjusted Net Income is calculated by adding to and deducting from net income, as applicable, certain expenses, costs, charges or benefits incurred in such period which in management's view are either not indicative of underlying business performance or impact the ability to assess the operating performance of our business, including i) amortization of intangible assets related to business combinations, ii) unrealized foreign exchange gain or loss, iii) unrealized gain or loss on financial instruments, and iv) share-based compensation expenses, and iv) other items that may arise from time to time. Adjusted Earnings per Share represents Adjusted Net Income divided by the weighted average number of shares outstanding. Order Bookings is indicative of firm future revenues; however, it does not provide a guarantee of future net income and provides no information about the timing of future revenue. Net Debt is the total carrying amount of long-term debt including current portions, as presented in the Q2 2024 Financial Statements, less cash (or plus bank indebtedness) and excluding any lease liabilities. Net Debt is a liquidity metric used to determine how well the Company can pay all of its debts if they were due immediately. Free Cash Flow is a supplemental measure used to monitor the availability of discretionary cash generated, and available to the Company to repay debt, make strategic investments, and meet other payment obligations. We define Free Cash Flow as operating cash flows less net capital expenditures.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
