ORLANDO, Fla., May 15, 2023 /PRNewswire/ — VOXX International Corporation (NASDAQ: VOXX), a leading manufacturer and distributor of automotive and consumer technologies for the global markets, today announced its financial results for its Fiscal 2023 fourth quarter and full year ended February 28, 2023.
Commenting on the Company’s results and business outlook, Pat Lavelle, Chief Executive Officer stated, “While we had a lot of positive developments and continued to win new business and expand globally, Fiscal 2023 was certainly a challenging year. From inflation, fears of recessions across the globe, the retail environment and ongoing supply chain constraints, we faced a myriad of roadblocks this year and our results came in lower than expected. We’re anticipating continued softness in the global economy and at retail, though chip availability has improved which should positively impact our Automotive business. We continued to grow the Onkyo and Pioneer business and have plans to expand our footprint globally this year. Additionally, our Biometrics segment should show considerable improvement with new accounts awarded and several projects underway.”
Mr. Lavelle continued, “Given the near-term market outlook, we continue to lower expenses and manage our capital prudently. We’re optimistic for a rebound domestically as we move further into the year and with fewer supply chain disruptions. Our view of the opportunities within each of our segments has not changed and we remain bullish on our future prospects when there is a return to a more normalized operating environment.”
Fiscal 2023 and Fiscal 2022 Fourth Quarter Comparisons
Net sales in the Fiscal 2023 fourth quarter ended February 28, 2023, were $136.5 million as compared to $163.9 million in the Fiscal 2022 fourth quarter ended February 28, 2022, a decrease of $27.4 million or 16.7%.
Automotive Electronics segment net sales in the Fiscal 2023 fourth quarter were $49.5 million as compared to $50.6 million in the comparable year-ago period, a decrease of $1.1 million or 2.2%. For the same comparable periods, OEM product sales were $21.9 million, an increase of $6.7 million, with the increase driven primarily by higher sales of OEM remote start and security products as chip scarcity lessened, and due to higher OEM rear-seat entertainment products due to new launches and increased volume with select customers. Aftermarket product sales were $27.6 million, a decline of $7.9 million, which was primarily driven by lower sales of aftermarket security products, higher levels of customer inventory on hand, fewer vehicles due to supply chain shortages and softness in the U.S. economy.
Consumer Electronics segment net sales in the Fiscal 2023 fourth quarter were $86.7 million as compared to $113.1 million in the comparable year-ago period, a decrease of $26.4 million or 23.4%. For the same comparable periods, Premium Audio product sales were $61.9 million, a decline of $29.5 million, and other consumer electronics (“CE”) product sales were $24.8 million, an increase of $3.0 million. Lower segment sales were primarily attributable to lower domestic sales of premium home theater speakers, wireless speakers and mobility products, as well as lower sales internationally due to the weaker European markets compared to the prior year, partially offset by higher sales of Onkyo and Pioneer related products. The declines in other CE product categories was primarily due to a slowing of the global economy as several product categories were down, partially offset by an increase in domestic wireless speakers and reception products, and an increase in sales of Schwaiger products in Germany.
Biometrics segment net sales in the Fiscal 2023 fourth quarter were $0.4 million as compared to $0.1 million in the comparable year-ago period, an increase of $0.3 million, with the improvement primarily related to sales to new customers secured throughout the year.
The gross margin in the Fiscal 2023 fourth quarter was 25.4% as compared to 26.8% in the Fiscal 2022 fourth quarter, a decline of 140 basis points. For the same comparable periods, the Company reported:
Automotive Electronics segment gross margin of 25.4% as compared to 20.1%. The year-over-year improvement of 530 basis points was primarily driven by steps the Company has taken to address ongoing chip constraints, which positively impacted gross margin for the comparable periods. More normalized OEM production also had a positive benefit on the Company’s gross margin, and the Company also experienced higher gross margins related to its aftermarket offering.
Consumer Electronics segment gross margin of 25.3% as compared to 29.8%. The year-over-year decline of 450 basis points was primarily driven by higher supply chain costs and surcharges, lower sales of premium home theater speaker products and, an increase in sales to discount channel customers in Europe. This was partially offset by mitigation steps the Company has taken through pricing adjustments and other sourcing strategies.
Biometrics segment gross margin of 39.8% as compared to negative gross margin in the comparable year-ago period.
Total operating expenses in the Fiscal 2023 fourth quarter were $47.6 million as compared to $40.7 million in the comparable Fiscal 2022 period, an increase of $6.9 million or 17.0%. However, within operating expenses for the Fiscal 2023 fourth quarter was a non-cash goodwill impairment charge of $7.4 million, and non-cash intangible asset impairment charges of $1.3 million. Excluding these non-cash charges, total operating expenses for the comparable fourth quarter periods improved by $1.7 million or 4.3%.
For the same comparable periods:
Selling expenses of $11.4 million declined by $1.9 million or 14.5%, driven by lower commissions and salesmen salaries, and a decline in website and credit card expenses, partially offset by higher advertising and trade show expenses, among other factors.
General and administrative expenses of $20.1 million decreased by $0.7 million or 3.8% primarily due to lower executive compensation and a decline in office expenses, partially offset by higher restructuring-related expenses which are not present in the prior year period, among other factors.
Engineering and technical support expenses of $7.6 million declined by $0.1 million or 1.2%, primarily due to lower direct labor expenses, partially offset by higher research and development expenses in support of various programs within the Company’s business segments.
Acquisition costs declined by $0.4 million as the Company incurred acquisitions costs in the Fiscal 2022 fourth quarter associated with the asset purchase agreement signed with Onkyo Home Entertainment Corporation and the joint venture created with Sharp Corporation to complete the transaction.

Non-GAAP MeasuresEBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not financial measures recognized by GAAP. EBITDA represents net (loss) income, computed in accordance with GAAP, before interest expense and bank charges, taxes, and depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA represents EBITDA adjusted for stock-based compensation expense, foreign currency losses (gains), life insurance proceeds, non-recurring gains, acquisition costs, certain non-recurring legal and professional fees, settlements and awards, non-recurring severance expense, restructuring-related expenses, and impairment charges. Depreciation, amortization, stock-based compensation, foreign currency losses (gains), and impairment charges are non-cash items.
We present EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA in our Form 10-K because we consider them to be useful and appropriate supplemental measures of our performance. Adjusted EBITDA helps us to evaluate our performance without the effects of certain GAAP calculations that may not have a direct cash impact on our current operating performance. In addition, the exclusion of certain costs or gains relating to certain events that occurred during the periods presented allows for a more meaningful comparison of our results from period-to-period. These non-GAAP measures, as we define them, are not necessarily comparable to similarly entitled measures of other companies and may not be an appropriate measure for performance relative to other companies. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA should not be assessed in isolation from, are not intended to represent, and should not be considered to be more meaningful measures than, or alternatives to, measures of operating performance as determined in accordance with GAAP.
