Leveraging cutting-edge 4-in-1 e-Propulsion Systems across all end markets
MAUMEE, Ohio, April 28, 2023 /PRNewswire/ — Dana Incorporated (NYSE: DAN) today announced financial results for the first quarter of 2023.
“Dana achieved strong sales of $2.64 billion in the first quarter, with significantly improved profit margin over the previous year, driven by healthy customer demand in all our end markets, as well as new and replacement business rolling-on,” said James Kamsickas, Dana chairman and chief executive officer.
“Operationally, we executed very well in the quarter, overcoming the pervasive challenges that continue to impact the mobility industry, including inflationary pressures, customer-demand volatility, supply-chain disruptions, and currency fluctuations. Our team has done an outstanding job remaining focused on our enterprise-wide transformation to a frontrunning e-Propulsion mobility supplier. We are capitalizing on the strength of our sales backlog and launching a record number of new programs for both traditional and electric-vehicle solutions, positioning us well for the future.”
First-quarter 2023 Financial ResultsSales for the first quarter of 2023 totaled $2.64 billion, compared with $2.48 billion in the same period of 2022, representing a $164 million increase driven by improved demand, cost-recovery actions, and conversion of the sales backlog, partially offset by the translation of foreign currencies.
Adjusted EBITDA for the first quarter of 2023 was $204 million, compared with $170 million for the same period in 2022. The 80 basis points of margin improvement in the first quarter of 2023 was primarily driven by higher sales volume, net customer pricing and recovery actions, and lower periodic spending on development for electric-vehicle products. It was partially offset by production inefficiencies driven by volatile customer demand schedules and negative exchange-rate impacts.
The net income attributable to Dana was $28 million, or $0.19 per share, compared with net income of $17 million, or $0.12 per share, in the first quarter of 2022.
Adjusted net income attributable to Dana was $36 million, and diluted adjusted earnings per share were $0.25 for the first quarter of 2023, compared with adjusted net income of $23 million and $0.16 per share in 2022.
Operating cash flow in the first quarter of 2023 was a use of $170 million, compared with a use of $121 million in the same period of 2022. Free cash flow was use of $290 million, compared with a use of $237 million in the first quarter of 2022. The increased use was due to higher working capital requirements primarily driven by increased inventory to support program launches and higher demand in heavy-vehicle markets.
“Dana is off to a good start to the year, which gives us added confidence in our full-year guidance,” said Timothy Kraus, Dana senior vice president and chief financial officer. “As we progress through the year, we now expect a mostly steady improving trajectory as our program launch cadence ramps up. We remain focused on offsetting key external cost drivers such as customer production volatility, inflation, currency fluctuations, and commodity prices.”
2023 Financial Targets Remain Unchanged1
Sales of $10.35 to $10.85 billion;
Adjusted EBITDA of $750 to $850 million, an implied adjusted EBITDA margin of approximately 7.5 percent at the midpoint of the range;
Diluted adjusted EPS of $0.25 to $0.75;
Operating cash flow of approximately, $510 to $560 million; and
Free cash flow of breakeven to $50 million

Non-GAAP Financial InformationAdjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure which we have defined as net income (loss) before interest, income taxes, depreciation, amortization, equity grant expense, restructuring expense, non-service cost components of pension and other postretirement benefit costs and other adjustments not related to our core operations (gain/loss on debt extinguishment, pension settlements, divestitures, impairment, etc.). Adjusted EBITDA is a measure of our ability to maintain and continue to invest in our operations and provide shareholder returns. We use adjusted EBITDA in assessing the effectiveness of our business strategies, evaluating and pricing potential acquisitions and as a factor in making incentive compensation decisions. In addition to its use by management, we also believe adjusted EBITDA is a measure widely used by securities analysts, investors and others to evaluate financial performance of our company relative to other Tier 1 automotive suppliers. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered a substitute for earnings (loss) before income taxes, net income (loss) or other results reported in accordance with GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.
Adjusted net income (loss) attributable to the parent company is a non-GAAP financial measure which we have defined as net income (loss) attributable to the parent company, excluding any discrete income tax items, restructuring charges, amortization expense and other adjustments not related to our core operations (as used in adjusted EBITDA), net of any associated income tax effects. This measure is considered useful for purposes of providing investors, analysts and other interested parties with an indicator of ongoing financial performance that provides enhanced comparability to net income attributable to the parent company reported by other companies. Adjusted net income (loss) attributable to the parent company is neither intended to represent nor be an alternative measure to net income (loss) attributable to the parent company reported in accordance with GAAP.
Diluted adjusted EPS is a non-GAAP financial measure which we have defined as adjusted net income (loss) attributable to the parent company divided by adjusted diluted shares. We define adjusted diluted shares as diluted shares as determined in accordance with GAAP based on adjusted net income (loss) attributable to the parent company. This measure is considered useful for purposes of providing investors, analysts and other interested parties with an indicator of ongoing financial performance that provides enhanced comparability to EPS reported by other companies. Diluted adjusted EPS is neither intended to represent nor be an alternative measure to diluted EPS reported in accordance with GAAP.
Free cash flow is a non-GAAP financial measure which we have defined as net cash provided by (used in) operating activities less purchases of property, plant and equipment. We believe free cash flow is useful to investors in evaluating the operational cash flow of the company inclusive of the spending required to maintain the operations. Free cash flow is not intended to represent nor be an alternative to the measure of net cash provided by (used in) operating activities reported in accordance with GAAP. Free cash flow may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.
The accompanying financial information provides reconciliations of adjusted EBITDA, diluted adjusted EPS and free cash flow to the most directly comparable financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. We have not provided a reconciliation of our adjusted EBITDA and diluted adjusted EPS outlook to the most comparable GAAP measures of net income (loss) and diluted EPS. Providing net income (loss) and diluted EPS guidance is potentially misleading and not practical given the difficulty of projecting event driven transactional and other non-core operating items that are included in net income (loss) and diluted EPS, including restructuring actions, asset impairments and certain income tax adjustments. The accompanying reconciliations of these non-GAAP measures with the most comparable GAAP measures for the historical periods presented are indicative of the reconciliations that will be prepared upon completion of the periods covered by the non-GAAP guidance.
