TPI Composites, Inc. Date: August 5, 2021 By: /s/ Bryan R. Schumaker Bryan R. Schumaker Chief Financial Officer EX-99.1 2 exh_991.htm PRESS RELEASE EXHIBIT 99.1 TPI Composites, Inc. Announces Second Quarter 2021 Earnings Results – Delivers Double Digit Top Line Growth in a Challenging Operating Environment SCOTTSDALE, Ariz., Aug. 05, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- TPI Composites, Inc. (Nasdaq: TPIC), the only independent manufacturer of composite wind blades with a global footprint, today reported financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2021. Highlights For the quarter ended June 30, 2021: º Net sales of $458.8 million º Net loss of $39.8 million or ($1.08) per diluted share º EBITDA of $4.3 million º Adjusted EBITDA of $17.4 million KPIs 2Q’21 2Q’20 Sets1 843 788 Estimated megawatts² 3,303 2,655 Utilization3 82% 70% Dedicated manufacturing lines4 50 52 Manufacturing lines installed5 51 54 1. Number of wind blade sets (which consist of three wind blades) produced worldwide during the period. 2. Estimated megawatts of energy capacity to be generated by wind blade sets produced during the period. 3. Utilization represents the percentage of wind blades produced during the period compared to the total potential wind blade capacity of manufacturing lines installed during the period. 4. Number of wind blade manufacturing lines that are dedicated to our customers under long-term supply agreements at the end of the period. 5. Number of wind blade manufacturing lines installed and either in operation, startup or transition during the period. “We are happy to report that we delivered solid top line and adjusted EBITDA results in the second quarter,” said Bill Siwek, President and CEO of TPI Composites. “We are closely monitoring resurgences of the COVID-19 pandemic, and we remain focused on creating a safe operating environment for our associates including working with local authorities in each of our regions to support our associates’ vaccinations. We are also pleased with the operational performance our team delivered against the continued challenging backdrop. Our team has been nimble working through supply chain hurdles, mainly relating to the resin and carbon fiber markets, as well as ongoing logistics challenges, which has allowed us to keep utilization levels stable in a difficult operating environment. “We are excited that we reached a new long-term agreement with Nordex and executed a two-year extension of our supply agreement with Proterra. These wins are a testament to the versatility of our dedicated supplier model and the strength of our long-term customer relationships. “We are also pleased to add Jerry Lavine as President of our Transportation business recently, bringing with him nearly 30 years of experience working with Tier 1 suppliers and major manufacturers in the automotive industry. We continue to expect increased demand for composite components and structures for electric vehicles as composite material systems can be the key material building blocks for purpose built electric vehicles. Moreover, the level of interest in our capabilities remains high and we are actively working with customers and potential customers to develop innovative composite solutions for vehicles across passenger automotive, bus, truck, and delivery vehicle platforms. We are optimistic about the future of this business, and we look forward to benefitting from Jerry’s expertise as we accelerate our growth in the transportation market. “While we expect the overall wind market to be relatively flat in 2022, we believe the long-term prospects for the wind industry have strengthened both domestically and globally, and we remain confident in our strategy to serve our customers in an efficient and cost-effective manner across our global manufacturing footprint,” concluded Mr. Siwek. Second Quarter 2021 Financial Results Net sales for the three months ended June 30, 2021, increased by $85.0 million or 22.7% to $458.8 million as compared to $373.8 million in the same period in 2020. Net sales of wind blades increased by $70.6 million or 20.3% to $418.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021, as compared to $348.1 million in the same period in 2020. The increase was primarily driven by an 7% increase in the number of wind blades produced during the three months ended June 30, 2021, as compared to the same period in 2020, as a result of increased production at our Mexico, India, Turkey and Iowa facilities. The increase was also due to a higher average sales price due to the mix of wind blade models produced during the three months ended June 30, 2021, as compared to the same period in 2020, and foreign currency fluctuations. Additionally, when comparing our 2021 second quarter net sales against the comparable prior year period, our net sales were negatively impacted by the removal of five contracted manufacturing lines that expired in China at the end of 2020, which was partially offset by the adverse impact that the COVID-19 pandemic had on our net sales in the prior year period. Finally, the net sales increase was partially offset by a decrease in the year over year number of wind blades still in the production process at the end of the period. The fluctuating U.S. dollar against the Euro in our Turkey operations and the Chinese Renminbi in our China operations had a favorable impact of 1.8% on consolidated net sales for the three months ended June 30, 2021, as compared to the same period in 2020. Total cost of goods sold for the three months ended June 30, 2021, was $450.5 million and included $4.5 million of costs related to lines in startup and $5.6 million of costs related to lines in transition during the period. This compares to total cost of goods sold for the three months ended June 30, 2020, of $378.6 million and included $6.9 million of costs related to lines in startup and $4.0 million of costs related to lines in transition during the period. Total cost of goods sold as a percentage of net sales decreased by approximately three percentage points during the three months ended June 30, 2021, as compared to the same period in 2020, driven primarily by a decrease in warranty costs and direct labor costs, partially offset by an increase in direct material costs and foreign currency fluctuations. The fluctuating U.S. dollar against the Euro, Turkish Lira, Chinese Renminbi and Mexican Peso had an unfavorable impact of 2.2% on consolidated cost of goods sold for the three months ended June 30, 2021, as compared to the same period in 2020. General and administrative expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2021, totaled $6.7 million, or 1.5% of net sales, compared to $6.9 million, or 1.8% of net sales, for the same period in 2020. The decrease as a percentage of net sales was primarily driven by our continued focus on reducing costs. Income taxes reflected a provision of $28.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021, as compared to a provision of $49.3 million for the same period in 2020. The decrease was primarily due to the change in the mix of earnings of foreign jurisdictions and U.S. tax on foreign earnings in the comparable periods, partially offset by the recording of a full U.S. valuation allowance and an increase in our uncertain tax positions for the three months ended June 30, 2021, as compared to the same period in 2020. Net loss for the three months ended June 30, 2021, was $39.8 million as compared to a net loss of $66.1 million in the same period in 2020. The decrease in the net loss was primarily due to the reasons set forth above. The diluted net loss per share was $1.08 for the three months ended June 30, 2021, compared to a diluted net loss per share of $1.87 for the three months ended June 30, 2020. Adjusted EBITDA for the three months ended June 30, 2021, increased to $17.4 million as compared to $3.3 million during the same period in 2020. Adjusted EBITDA margin increased to 3.8% as compared to 0.9% during the same period in 2020. Capital expenditures were $8.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021, as compared to $15.0 million during the same period in 2020. Our capital expenditures primarily relate to machinery and equipment at our new facilities and expansion and improvements at our existing facilities. We ended the quarter with $123.1 million of cash and cash equivalents, and net debt was $114.0 million as compared to $88.1 million as of December 31, 2020. We used $10.0 million of cash from operating activities and had negative free cash flow of $18.3 million during the three months ended June 30, 2021. 2021 Guidance For the full year ending December 31, 2021, we update our guidance to the following: Guidance (1) Full Year 2021 Net Sales $1.75 billion to $1.80 billion Adjusted EBITDA (2) (3) $70 million to $85 million Dedicated Manufacturing Lines 54 Utilization % Approximately 80% Wind Blade Set Capacity 4,260 Average Selling Price per Blade $165,000 to $170,000 Non-Blade Sales $115 million to $125 million Capital Expenditures $55 million to $65 million Startup Costs $11 million to $13 million Restructuring Costs $15 million to $22 million (1) These numbers could be significantly impacted by COVID-19. (2) Forecasting Q3 adjusted EBITDA to be approximately 40% of 2021 adjusted EBITDA guidance. (3) See Table Four for the reconciliations of this non-GAAP financial data.

These forward - looking statements are only predictions.

Because forward - looking statements are inherently subject to risks and uncertainties, some of which cannot be predicted or quantified, you should not rely on these forward - looking statements as guarantees of future events. Further information on the factors, risks and uncertainties that could aff ect our financial results and the forward - looking statements in this presentation are included in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission and will be included in subsequent periodic and current r epo rts we make with the Securities and Exchange Commission from time to time, including in our Annual Report on Form 10 - K for the year ended December 31, 2020. The forward - looking statements in this presentation represent our views as of the date of this presentation. We anticipate that subsequent events and developments will cause our views to change. However, while we may elect to update these forward - looking statements at some point in the future, we undertake no obligation to update any forward - looking statement to reflect events or developments after the date on which the statement is made or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events except to the extent required by applicab le law. You should, therefore, not rely on these forward - looking statements as representing our views as of any date after the date of this presentation. Our forward - looking statements do not reflect the pot ential impact of any future acquisitions, mergers, dispositions, joint ventures, or investments we may make. This presentation includes unaudited non - GAAP financial measures including EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, net cash (debt) and free cas h 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 c ash (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. See the Appendix for the reconciliations of certain non - GAAP financial measures to the comparable GAAP mea sures. This presentation also contains estimates and other information concerning our industry that are based on industry publicatio ns, surveys and forecasts. This information involves a number of assumptions and limitations, and we have not independently verified the accuracy or completeness of the information. 2 [[Image Removed]] Q2 2021 Earnings Call August 5, 2021 Agenda 3 • Q2 2021 Highlights • Q2 2021 Financial Highlights and 2021 Guidance • Wrap Up • Q&A • Appendix – Non - GAAP Financial Information [[Image Removed]] August 5, 2021 Q2 2021 Highlights [[Image Removed]] Q2 2021 Earnings Call August 5, 2021 • Operating results and year - over - year comparisons to 2020: – Net sales were up 22.7% to $458.8 million for the quarter – Net loss for the quarter was $39.8 million compared to a net loss of $66.1 million – Adjusted EBITDA for the quarter was $17.4 million or 3.8% of net sales, a $14.1 million increase • Hired Jerry Lavine as President, Transportation • Added four lines for Nordex in Matamoros, Mexico • Extended Proterra agreement through 2024 • Added potential revenue of ~$460 million as a result of the Nordex and Proterra deals Q2 2021 Highlights 5 Net Sales and Adjusted EBITDA ($ in millions) Est.
