Q2 2024 sales were $123.7 million as compared to $100.6 million in Q2 2023, an increase of $23.1 million, or 23%. Sales growth was a result of our customers' investments in the Chemical, Petrochemical, Power, Renewables and Food & Beverage end markets as well as investments in decarbonization and electrification projects.

Backlog was $166.9 million as of September 30, 2023, representing a $6.1 million increase, or 4%, as compared to Q2 2023 backlog of $160.8 million. Orders in Q2 2024 were $116.4 million compared to $95.2 million in Q2 2023, an increase of $21.2 million, or 22%.

Balance Sheet, Liquidity and Cash Flow

Thermon maintained a strong and flexible balance sheet during Q2 2024. The net debt-to-Adjusted EBITDA ratio was 0.8x as compared to 1.4x in the prior year period. Gross outstanding debt decreased by $32.9 million to $110.6 million. Available liquidity at the end of the quarter totaled $100.6 million, including $30.5 million in cash and cash equivalents and $70.1 million available under credit agreements.

Working capital increased by 3.2% to $159.5 million during Q2 2024. Capital expenditures during the quarter were $2.8 million, up from $2.0 million in the prior year period. Cash from operating activities was $3.4 million and Free Cash Flow was $0.6 million.

The Company's withdrawal from its operations in the Russian Federation through a disposition of its Russian subsidiary (the "Russia Exit") is on track to be completed in the third quarter of Fiscal 2024. During the three months ended September 30, 2023, the Company recorded a total charge of approximately $0.5 million or an impact of $0.02 to EPS, related to the Russia Exit.

Revised Outlook

Kevin Fox, Thermon's Chief Financial Officer, added, "Our team's outstanding performance in the second quarter of the fiscal year built on the momentum from the first quarter. This, combined with our balanced outlook for the second half of our fiscal year, allows us to raise our full-year Fiscal 2024 revenue guidance to approximately $478 - $498 million. We are also raising full-year Fiscal 2024 GAAP EPS guidance to approximately $1.59 - $1.69 per share, with Adjusted EPS of approximately $1.84 - $1.94 per share."

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Disclosure in this release of "Adjusted EPS," "Adjusted EBITDA," "Adjusted EBITDA margin," "Adjusted Net Income/(loss)," "Free Cash Flow," "Organic Sales" and "Net Debt," which are "non-GAAP financial measures" as defined under the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"), are intended as supplemental measures of our financial performance that are not required by, or presented in accordance with, U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). "Adjusted Net Income/(loss)" and "Adjusted EPS" (or "Adjusted fully diluted EPS") represent net income/(loss) before the impact of restructuring and other charges/(income), costs associated with impairments and other charges, acquisition costs, amortization of intangible assets, tax expense for impact of foreign rate increases, and any tax effect of such adjustments. "Adjusted EBITDA" represents net income before interest expense (net of interest income), income tax expense, depreciation and amortization expense, stock-based compensation expense, acquisition costs, costs associated with restructuring and other income/(charges), and costs associated with impairments and other charges. "Adjusted EBITDA margin" represents Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of total revenue. "Free Cash Flow" represents cash provided by operating activities less cash used for the purchase of property, plant, and equipment, net of sales of rental equipment and proceeds from sales of land and buildings. "Organic Sales" represents revenue excluding the impact of the Company's May 31, 2022 acquisition of Powerblanket. "Net Debt" represents total outstanding principal debt less cash and cash equivalents on hand.

We believe these non-GAAP financial measures are meaningful to our investors to enhance their understanding of our financial performance and are frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties to compare our performance with the performance of other companies that report Adjusted EPS, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin or Adjusted Net Income. Adjusted EPS, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, Adjusted Net Income, Organic Sales and Free Cash Flow should be considered in addition to, and not as substitutes for, revenue, income from operations, net income, net income per share and other measures of financial performance reported in accordance with GAAP. We provide Free Cash Flow as a measure of liquidity. Our calculation of Adjusted EPS, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, Adjusted Net Income and Free Cash Flow may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. For a description of how Adjusted EPS, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, Adjusted Net Income and Free Cash Flow are calculated and reconciliations to the corresponding GAAP measures, see the sections of this release titled "Reconciliation of Net Income to Adjusted EBITDA," "Reconciliation of Net Income to Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted EPS" and "Reconciliation of Cash Provided by Operating Activities to Free Cash Flow." We are unable to reconcile projected fiscal 2024 Adjusted EPS to the most directly comparable projected GAAP financial measure because certain information necessary to calculate such measures on a GAAP basis is unavailable or dependent on the timing of future events outside of our control. Therefore, because of the uncertainty and variability of the nature of and the amount of any potential applicable future adjustments, which could be significant, we are unable to provide a reconciliation for projected fiscal 2024 Adjusted EPS without unreasonable effort.

In addition, our business and operations involve numerous risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond our control, which could result in our expectations not being realized or otherwise materially affect our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

Any one of these factors or a combination of these factors could materially affect our future results of operations and could influence whether any forward-looking statements contained in this release ultimately prove to be accurate.

Our forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance, and actual results and future performance may differ materially from those suggested in any forward-looking statements. We do not intend to update these statements unless we are required to do so under applicable securities laws.
