EXHIBIT 99.1

TPI Composites, Inc. Announces First Quarter 2024 Earnings Results – Results In-line with Company Expectations; Reiterate Full Year 2024 Financial Guidance

SCOTTSDALE, Ariz., May 02, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- TPI Composites, Inc. (Nasdaq: TPIC), today reported financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2024.

“As expected, sales and adjusted EBITDA for the first quarter of 2024 were impacted by the timing of production line startups and transitions. As our customers prepare for an expected multi-year global wind market growth environment, we are excited to partner with them and align our factories to support their next generation blade models. Activity on these startups and transitions is progressing well and we remain confident 2024 will be a tale of two halves, as we are projecting a return to mid-single digit adjusted EBITDA margins and positive free cash flow in the second half of 2024,” said Bill Siwek, President and CEO of TPI Composites. “We ended the quarter with $117 million of cash and with the completion of the Oaktree strategic refinancing last quarter, we have ample liquidity to navigate current market conditions and ultimately expand to meet our customers’ growing needs.”

“In addition to demand driven by climate change and the need for energy security, several government policy initiatives aimed at enabling and expanding the use of renewable energy are having a positive impact on OEM backlogs and give us confidence in the wind industry’s short- and long-term growth trajectory. We remain focused on improving our operations every day and strengthening our strategic position in the market, which we expect will set us up nicely for the anticipated recovery in the wind industry.”

First Quarter 2024 Financial Results from Continuing Operations

Net sales for the three months ended March 31, 2024, decreased 26.0% to $299.1 million as compared to $404.1 million in the same period in 2023 due to the following:

Net loss from continuing operations attributable to common stockholders was $61.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024, compared to a loss of $30.3 million in the same period in 2023. The decrease was primarily driven by lower sales, startup and transition costs, and changes in estimate for pre-existing warranty claims, partially offset by favorable foreign currency fluctuations.

The net loss from continuing operations per common share was $1.31 the three months ended March 31, 2024, compared to a net loss per common share of $0.72 for the same period in 2023.

Adjusted EBITDA was a loss of $23.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024, as compared to adjusted EBITDA of $8.4 million during the same period in 2023. Adjusted EBITDA margin decreased to a loss of 7.7% as compared to an adjusted EBITDA margin of 2.1% during the same period in 2023. The decrease was primarily driven by lower sales, startup and transition costs, and changes in estimate for pre-existing warranty claims, partially offset by favorable foreign currency fluctuations.

Forward-Looking Statements

This release contains forward-looking statements which are made pursuant to safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements include statements, among other things, concerning: growth of the wind energy and electric vehicle markets and our addressable markets for our products and services; effects on our financial statements and our financial outlook; our business strategy, including anticipated trends and developments in and management plans for our business and the wind industry and other markets in which we operate; competition; future financial results, operating results, revenues, gross margin, operating expenses, profitability, products, projected costs, warranties, our ability to improve our operating margins, and capital expenditures. These forward-looking statements are often characterized by the use of words such as “estimate,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “project,” “plan,” “intend,” “seek,” “believe,” “forecast,” “foresee,” “likely,” “may,” “should,” “goal,” “target,” “might,” “will,” “could,” “predict,” “continue” and the negative or plural of these words and other comparable terminology. Forward-looking statements are only predictions based on our current expectations and our projections about future events. You should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements. We undertake no obligation to update any of these forward-looking statements for any reason. These forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause our actual results, levels of activity, performance, or achievements to differ materially from those expressed or implied by these statements. These factors include, but are not limited to, the matters discussed in “Risk Factors,” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K and other reports that we will file with the SEC.

Non-GAAP Definitions
This press release includes unaudited non-GAAP financial measures, including EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, net cash (debt) and free cash flow. We define EBITDA as net income (loss) plus interest expense (including losses on the extinguishment of debt and net of interest income), income taxes and depreciation and amortization. We define adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA plus any share-based compensation expense, any foreign currency income or losses, any gains or losses on the sale of assets and asset impairments and any restructuring charges. We define net cash (debt) as the total unrestricted cash and cash equivalents less the total principal amount of debt outstanding. We define free cash flow as net cash flow from operating activities less capital expenditures. We present non-GAAP measures when we believe that the additional information is useful and meaningful to investors. Non-GAAP financial measures do not have any standardized meaning and are therefore unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. The presentation of non-GAAP financial measures is not intended to be a substitute for, and should not be considered in isolation from, the financial measures reported in accordance with GAAP.

We provide forward-looking statements in the form of guidance in our quarterly earnings releases and during our quarterly earnings conference calls. This guidance is provided on a non-GAAP basis and cannot be reconciled to the closest GAAP measures without unreasonable effort because of the unpredictability of the amounts and timing of events affecting the items we exclude from non-GAAP measures. For example, stock-based compensation is unpredictable for our performance-based awards, which can fluctuate significantly based on current expectations of future achievement of performance-based targets. Amortization of intangible assets and restructuring costs are all impacted by the timing and size of potential future actions, which are difficult to predict. In addition, from time to time, we exclude certain items that occur infrequently, which are also inherently difficult to predict and estimate. It is also difficult to predict the tax effect of the items we exclude and to estimate certain discrete tax items, like the resolution of tax audits or changes to tax laws. As such, the costs that are being excluded from non-GAAP guidance are difficult to predict and a reconciliation or a range of results could lead to disclosure that would be imprecise or potentially misleading. Material changes to any one of the exclusions could have a significant effect on our guidance and future GAAP results. See Table Four for a reconciliation of certain non-GAAP financial measures to the comparable GAAP measures.

Q&A Q1 2024 15

 

 

This presentation includes unaudited non - GAAP financial measures including EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, net cash (debt) and free cash flow. We define EBITDA, a non - GAAP financial measure, as net income or loss from continuing operations plus interest expense net, income taxes, depreciati on and amortization, preferred stock dividends and accretion less gain on extinguishment on series A preferred stock. We define adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA plus any share - based compensation expense, plus or minus any foreign currency losses or income, plus or minus any losses or gains from the sale of assets and asset impairments, plus any restructuring charges. . We define net cash (debt) as total unrestricted cash and cash equivalents less the total principal amount of debt outstanding. We define free cash flow as net cash flow from operating activities less capital expenditures. We present non - GAAP measures when we believe that the additional information is useful and meaningful to investors. Non - GAAP financial measures do not have any standardized meaning and are therefore unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. The presentation of non - GAAP financial measures is not intended to be a substitute for, and should not be considered in isolation from, the financial measures reported in accordance with GAAP. We provide forward - looking statements in the form of guidance in our quarterly earnings releases and during our quarterly earnings conference calls. This guidance is provided on a non - GAAP basis and cannot be reconciled to the closest GAAP measures without unreasonable effort because of the unpredictability of the amounts and timing of events affecting the items we exclude from non - GAAP measures. For example, stock - based compensation is unpredictable for our performance - based awards, which can fluctuate significantly based on current expectations of future achievement of performance - based targets. Amortization of intangible assets and restructuring costs are all impacted by the timing and size of potential future actions, which are difficult to predict. In addition, from time to time, we exclude certain items that occur infrequently, which are also inherently difficult to predict and estimate. It is also difficult to predict the tax effect of the items we exclude and to estimate certain discrete tax items, like the resolution of tax audits or changes to tax laws. As such, the costs that are being excluded from non - GAAP guidance are difficult to predict and a reconciliation or a range of results could lead to disclosure that would be imprecise or potentially misleading. Material changes to any one of the exclusions could have a significant effect on our guidance and future GAAP results. See below for a reconciliation of certain non - GAAP financial measures to the comparable GAAP measures. Appendix – Non - GAAP Financial Information 16 Q1 2024
