Vertiv Reports Strong Fourth Quarter Results and Provides Full Year 2024 Outlook

  • Fourth quarter net sales of $1,865 million, 13% higher than the fourth quarter of 2022
  • Fourth quarter organic orders up 23% from fourth quarter 2022. Record high $5.5 billion backlog at the end of fourth quarter 2023
  • Fourth quarter operating profit of $285 million and adjusted operating profit(1) of $330 million, up 57% from fourth quarter 2022
  • Operating cash flow of $356 million and adjusted free cash flow(1) of $305 million, an increase of $162 million over the fourth quarter 2022. Net leverage of 1.9x at end of fourth quarter 2023
  • Full year 2023 operating cash flow of $901 million and adjusted free cash flow of $778 million, an increase of $1,038 million compared to full year 2022 and expect full year 2024 adjusted free cash flow(2) of $800 to $850 million
  • Expect full year 2024 net sales growth of 10%, operating profit of $1,095 to $1,145 million and adjusted operating profit of $1,275 to $1,325 million, a 23% increase at the mid-point compared to full year 2023

Vertiv Holdings Co (NYSE: VRT), a global provider of critical digital infrastructure and continuity solutions, today reported financial results for its fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2023. Vertiv reported fourth quarter 2023 net sales of $1,865 million, an increase of $211 million, or 13%, compared to fourth quarter 2022 and a 12% organic net sales(1) increase, which excludes the impact of foreign currency. The book-to-bill ratio was 1.3x in the fourth quarter and organic orders increased 23% from last year’s fourth quarter, as underlying market demand remained strong.

Fourth quarter 2023 operating profit of $285 million increased $123 million and adjusted operating profit of $330 million increased $120 million, or 57%, from fourth quarter 2022. Adjusted operating margin expanded 500 basis points to 17.7% compared to fourth quarter 2022 driven by benefits from commercial execution and increased volume and productivity partially offset by growth investments in R&D and capacity.

“Vertiv delivered a strong fourth quarter, capping off a year of significant progress built on our unrelenting focus on operational execution, driving a high-performance culture and demonstrating financial strength underpinned by continued robust market demand for Vertiv’s innovative products and services,” said Giordano Albertazzi, Vertiv’s Chief Executive Officer. “This strong performance positions us well for continued momentum in 2024 as we continue to grow, further enhance our operational excellence and build a cultural DNA across the organization to ensure our continued market leadership in a dynamic industry.”

“We see tremendous opportunity ahead as the data center needs of AI drive additional market demand. Our fourth quarter acquisition of CoolTera and our continued commitment to supporting our customers reinforce our strong position in liquid cooling for high density compute applications driven by AI demand. With our ability to develop and deliver solutions across the entire thermal and power technology spectrum and customize at scale, our unparalleled service organization, our strong partnerships with leading industry players and our deep customer relationships, Vertiv is uniquely positioned for leadership in a strong and accelerating market.”

Dave Cote, Vertiv’s Executive Chairman, added: “In his first year as CEO, Gio and his team have put Vertiv on a firm footing, achieving improved performance across all financial metrics, including profitability and strong adjusted free cash flow which support acceleration of our long-term capital deployment framework. Vertiv is laying the foundation and building a resilient organization for sustained growth and long-term-value creation.”

Adjusted Free Cash Flow and Liquidity

Net cash generated by operating activities in the fourth quarter was $356 million, an increase of $176 million from fourth quarter 2022 and adjusted free cash flow was $305 million, an increase of $162 million from fourth quarter 2022. Fourth quarter adjusted free cash flow performance was driven by higher adjusted operating profit and continued improvement in working capital management which were partially offset by an increase in capital expenditures to support growth.

In December 2023, Vertiv’s credit rating was upgraded to Ba3 by Moody’s Investors Service and upgraded to BB by S&P Global Ratings reflecting a strengthened balance sheet from improved operational performance, including strong cash flow generation and margin expansion. Liquidity increased to $1.3 billion at the end of fourth quarter 2023 and borrowings under our ABL credit facility remained at zero at year-end. Vertiv’s $2.1 billion term loan was repriced in December 2023, lowering our interest rate by 25 basis points and annual interest expense by approximately $5.3 million. Net leverage at the end of fourth quarter 2023 was 1.9x, within the target net leverage range of 1.0x to 2.0x we announced at our November investor conference. As previously announced, we plan to accelerate capital deployment activity in 2024 within the framework described at the investor conference.

Full Year and First Quarter 2024 Guidance

We continue to see strong and accelerating trends in the data center market, including increasing demand for critical digital infrastructure to support AI deployment at scale. We are accelerating growth opportunities with our decades of experience and market leadership, technology, extensive portfolio and scale. Additionally, we are increasing our capital expenditures plan for 2024 to $175 to $200 million to support the growth trajectory.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Financial information included in this release has been prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”). Vertiv has included certain non-GAAP financial measures in this news release, as indicated above, that may not be directly comparable to other similarly titled measures used by other companies and therefore may not be comparable among companies. These non-GAAP financial measures include organic net sales growth (including on a segment basis), adjusted operating profit, adjusted operating margin, adjusted diluted EPS and adjusted free cash flow, which management believes provides investors with useful supplemental information to evaluate the Company’s ongoing operations and to compare with past and future periods. Management also uses certain non-GAAP measures internally for forecasting, budgeting and measuring its operating performance. These measures should be viewed as supplementing, and not as an alternative or substitute for, the Company's financial results prepared in accordance with GAAP. Pursuant to the requirements of Regulation G, Vertiv has provided reconciliations of non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures.

Information reconciling certain forward-looking GAAP measures to non-GAAP measures related to first quarter and full-year 2024 guidance, including organic net sales growth, adjusted free cash flow and adjusted operating margin, is not available without unreasonable effort due to high variability, complexity and uncertainty with respect to forecasting and quantifying certain amounts that are necessary for such reconciliations. For those reasons, we are unable to compute the probable significance of the unavailable information, which could have a potentially unpredictable, and potentially significant, impact on our future GAAP financial results.

See “Reconciliation of GAAP and Non-GAAP Financial Measures” in this release for Vertiv’s reconciliations of non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures.

Cautionary Note Concerning Forward-Looking Statements

This news release, and other statements that Vertiv may make in connection therewith, may contain forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 with respect to Vertiv’s future financial or business performance, strategies or expectations, and as such are not historical facts. This includes, without limitation, statements regarding Vertiv’s financial position, capital structure, indebtedness, business strategy and plans, and objectives of Vertiv management for future operations, as well as statements regarding growth, anticipated demand for our products and services, and our business prospects during 2024, as well as expected impacts from our pricing actions, and our guidance for first quarter and full year 2024. These statements constitute projections, forecasts and forward-looking statements, and are not guarantees of performance. Vertiv cautions that forward-looking statements are subject to numerous assumptions, risks and uncertainties, which change over time. Such statements can be identified by the fact that they do not relate strictly to historical or current facts. When used in this news release, words such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “continue,” “could,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “may,” “might,” “plan,” “possible,” “potential,” “predict,” “project,” “should,” “strive,” “would” and similar expressions may identify forward-looking statements, but the absence of these words does not mean that a statement is not forward-looking.

The forward-looking statements contained in this release are based on current expectations and beliefs concerning future developments and their potential effects on Vertiv. There can be no assurance that future developments affecting Vertiv will be those that Vertiv has anticipated. Vertiv undertakes no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as may be required under applicable securities laws.

Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should any of the assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary in material respects from those projected in these forward-looking statements. Vertiv has previously disclosed risk factors in its Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) reports, including those set forth in the Vertiv 2022 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on February 27, 2023. These risk factors and those identified elsewhere in this release, among others, could cause actual results to differ materially from historical performance and include, but are not limited to: risks relating to the continued growth of Vertiv’s customers’ markets; disruption of Vertiv’s customers’ orders or Vertiv’s customers’ markets; less favorable contractual terms with large customers; risks associated with governmental contracts; failure to mitigate risks associated with long-term fixed price contracts; competition in the infrastructure technologies industry; failure to obtain performance and other guarantees from financial institutions; failure to realize sales expected from Vertiv’s backlog of orders and contracts; failure to properly manage Vertiv’s supply chain or difficulties with third-party manufacturers; our ability to forecast changes in prices, including due to inflation in material, freight and/or labor costs, and timely implement measures necessary to mitigate the impacts of any such changes; risks associated with our significant backlog, including that the impacts of any measures taken to mitigate inflation will not be reflected in our financial statements immediately; failure to meet or anticipate technology changes; risks associated with information technology disruption or security; risks associated with the implementation and enhancement of information systems; failure to realize the expected benefit from any rationalization, restructuring and improvement efforts; Vertiv’s ability to realize cost savings in connection with Vertiv’s restructuring program; disruption of, or changes in, Vertiv’s independent sales representatives, distributors and original equipment manufacturers; changes to tax law; ongoing tax audits; costs or liabilities associated with product liability; the global scope of Vertiv’s operations; risks associated with Vertiv’s sales and operations in emerging markets; risks associated with future legislation and regulation of Vertiv’s customers’ markets both in the U.S. and abroad; Vertiv’s ability to comply with various laws and regulations, and the costs associated with legal compliance; adverse outcomes to any legal claims and proceedings filed by or against Vertiv; risks associated with current or potential litigation or claims against Vertiv; Vertiv’s ability to protect or enforce its proprietary rights on which its business depends; third-party intellectual property infringement claims; liabilities associated with environmental, health and safety matters, including risks associated with the COVID-19 pandemic; failure to achieve environmental, social and governance goals; failure to realize the value of goodwill and intangible assets; exposure to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates; exposure to increases in interest rates set by central banking authorities; failure to maintain internal controls over financial reporting; the unpredictability of Vertiv’s future operational results, including the ability to grow and manage growth profitably; potential net losses in future periods; Vertiv’s level of indebtedness and the ability to incur additional indebtedness; Vertiv’s ability to comply with the covenants and restrictions contained in our credit agreements including restrictive covenants that restrict operational flexibility; Vertiv's ability to comply with the covenants and restrictions contained in our credit agreements that is not fully within our control; Vertiv’s ability to access funding through capital markets; the significant ownership and influence certain stockholders have over Vertiv; resales of Vertiv's securities may cause volatility in the market price of our securities; Vertiv's organizational documents contain provisions that may discourage unsolicited takeover proposals; Vertiv's certificate of incorporation includes a forum selection clause, which could discourage or limit stockholders’ ability to make a claim against it; the ability of Vertiv's subsidiaries to pay dividends; the ability of Vertiv to grow and manage growth profitably, maintain relationships with customers and suppliers, and retain its management and key employees; Vertiv’s ability to manage the succession of its key employees; factors relating to the business, operations and financial performance of Vertiv and its subsidiaries, including: global economic weakness and uncertainty; Vertiv’s ability to attract, train and retain key members of its leadership team and other qualified personnel; the adequacy of Vertiv’s insurance coverage; a failure to benefit from future corporate transactions; risks associated with Vertiv’s limited history of operating as an independent company; and other risks and uncertainties indicated in Vertiv’s SEC reports or documents filed or to be filed with the SEC by Vertiv.

Reconciliation of GAAP and non-GAAP Financial Measures

To supplement this news release, we have included certain non-GAAP financial measures in the format of performance metrics. Management believes these non-GAAP financial measures provide investors with additional meaningful financial information that should be considered when assessing our underlying business performance and trends. Further, management believes these non-GAAP financial measures also enhance investors' ability to compare period-to-period financial results. Non-GAAP financial measures should be viewed in addition to, and not as an alternative for, the company's reported results prepared in accordance with GAAP. Our non-GAAP financial measures do not represent a comprehensive basis of accounting. Therefore, our non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. Reconciliations of each of these non-GAAP financial measures to GAAP information are also included. Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures in making financial, operating, compensation and planning decisions and in evaluating the company's performance. Disclosing these non-GAAP financial measures allows investors and management to view our operating results excluding the impact of items that are not reflective of the underlying operating performance.

Vertiv’s non-GAAP financial measures include:

  • Adjusted operating profit (loss), which represents operating profit (loss), adjusted to exclude amortization of intangibles;
  • Adjusted operating margin, which represents adjusted operating profit (loss) divided by net sales;
  • Organic net sales growth, which represents the change in net sales adjusted to exclude the impacts of foreign currency exchange rate;
  • Adjusted free cash flow, which represents net cash provided by (used for) operating activities adjusted to exclude capital expenditures, investments in capitalized software and include proceeds from disposition of PP&E; and
  • Adjusted diluted EPS, which represents diluted earnings per share adjusted to exclude amortization of intangibles and change in warranty liability.

Diluted EPS and adjusted diluted EPS is based on 390.5 million shares (includes 381.6 million basic shares, 8.9 million potential dilutive stock options, restricted stock units and performance awards converted into RSUs upon achievement of the related performance target). We believe that this presentation is more representative of operating results by removing the impact of warrant liability accounting and the associated impact on diluted share count.

(2)

Nonrecurring tax benefit includes $115.0 million of valuation allowance release as a result of the Company’s updated assessment of the realization of deferred tax assets in certain countries.

Information reconciling certain forward-looking GAAP measures to non-GAAP measures related to FY 2024 guidance, including organic net sales growth, adjusted operating margin and adjusted free cash flow, is not available without unreasonable effort due to high variability, complexity and uncertainty with respect to forecasting and quantifying certain amounts that are necessary for such reconciliations. For the same reasons, we are unable to compute the probable significance of the unavailable information, which could have a potentially unpredictable, and potentially significant, impact on our future GAAP financial results.
