Aug 02, 2023

Mirion ("we" or the "company") (NYSE: MIR), a global provider of radiation detection, measurement, analysis and monitoring solutions to the medical, nuclear, defense, and research end markets, today announced results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2023.

“We posted strong second quarter results, headlined by our fourth consecutive quarter of backlog expansion and solid revenue growth in both reporting segments,” stated Thomas Logan, Mirion’s Chief Executive Officer. “For the balance of the year, improving cash generation and margin expansion are my top priorities, and I believe we have the right strategy in place to improve our performance in these areas.”

“Our team delivered another solid quarter, positioning Mirion well for the second half of the year,” added Larry Kingsley, Chairman of Mirion’s Board. “We continue to see robust demand across our end markets and our order flow remains strong. The year is progressing well and we have a strong roadmap in place to deliver for our customers and our shareholders in the second half.”

Updated 2023 Outlook

“Top-line performance was very strong in the first half and we expect to see continued momentum through the remainder of the year, especially within the Technologies group,” continued Mr. Logan. “As such, we are raising and tightening our revenue growth outlook. We are also expecting Adjusted EBITDA margin improvement in the second half as mix headwinds ease, and we are working hard to improve our net working capital dynamics to drive better Adjusted Free Cash Flow conversion.”

Mirion is updating its guidance for the fiscal year and 12-month period ending December 31, 2023:

  • Revenue growth of 8% - 10%, compared to 6% - 9% previously
  • Organic revenue growth of 6% - 8%, compared to 4% - 7% previously
  • Adjusted EBITDA of $175 million - $185 million, compared to $172 million - $182 million previously
  • Adjusted EPS of $0.28 - $0.34, which is unchanged
  • Adjusted free cash flow of $45 million - $75 million, compared to $58 million - $78 million previously

Inorganic revenue growth is expected to be approximately 1.0%, including benefits from the SIS acquisition, offset by the Biodex rehab divestiture, which closed early in the second quarter. Foreign exchange rates are expected to result in a positive 0.5% impact to revenue growth. The guidance for organic revenue growth excludes the impact of foreign exchange rates as well as mergers, acquisitions and divestitures.

Other modeling and guidance assumptions include the following:

  • Euro to U.S. Dollar foreign exchange conversion rate of 1.09
  • Net interest expense of approximately $60 million (approximately $55 million of cash interest)
  • Approximately 199 million shares of Class A common stock outstanding (excludes 7.8 million shares of Class B common stock, 27.2 million warrants, 18.8 million founder shares, subject to vesting, 2.1 million restricted stock units, 0.6 million performance stock units and a further 28.7 million shares reserved for future equity awards (subject to annual automatic increases) (all numbers as of June 30, 2023))

The Company’s guidance contains forward-looking statements and actual results may differ materially as a result of known and unknown uncertainties and risks, including those set forth below under the heading “Forward-Looking Statements.” In addition, forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures are presented on a non-GAAP basis without reconciliations of such forward-looking non-GAAP measures due to the inherent difficulty in projecting and quantifying the various adjusting items necessary for such reconciliations, such as stock-based compensation expense, amortization and depreciation expense and purchase accounting adjustments, that have not yet occurred, are out of Mirion’s control, or cannot be reasonably predicted. Accordingly, reconciliations of our guidance for adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EPS, adjusted free cash flow and net leverage are not available without unreasonable effort.
