WEST WARWICK, R.I.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--March 23, 2023--AstroNova, Inc. (Nasdaq: ALOT), a global leader in data visualization technologies, today announced financial results for the fourth quarter and full year ended January 31, 2023.

CEO Commentary

“We finished fiscal 2023 with a strong fourth quarter, delivering solid revenue and earnings growth,” stated Greg Woods, President and Chief Executive Officer of AstroNova. “Our performance highlights the outstanding work of our team members around the globe in navigating a year of extraordinary macroeconomic challenges and positioning AstroNova for continued success as we advance through fiscal 2024 and beyond.

“Revenue increased 34% year-over-year in the fourth quarter, fueled by gains in both segments. In Test & Measurement, 61% top-line growth was driven by our Aerospace product line, which benefited from a combination of favorable pricing adjustments, greater cost efficiencies and the ongoing production ramp of commercial, business and military aircraft. With the recovery in commercial air travel, revenue from supplies and repair services also grew nicely. While the cost for certain components remains elevated, the supply chain constraints and pricing effects we were experiencing earlier in the year moderated in the fourth quarter,” Woods stated.


“Our Product Identification segment generated 26% revenue growth in the quarter, attributable to the acquisition of Astro Machine in the third quarter of fiscal 2023,” Woods stated. “The business is performing in line with our expectations as we advance through the integration process. During the fourth quarter, we launched the production release of the QL‑E100, our full-color label printer designed for small businesses and production facilities. Production shipments are underway, and we are pleased with the initial customer response to our entry into this new tabletop market segment.

“Looking ahead, we are well positioned in both of our segments, in Product Identification we are excited about the opportunities to continue to capitalize on the synergies provided by Astro Machine, and the rebound in the Aerospace and Defense sectors bodes well for our Test and Measurement segment, as we begin fiscal 2024,” Woods concluded. “Powered by the AstroNova Operating System, the foundation of our continuous improvement strategy, we expect sustained momentum throughout the year.”

On a Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) basis, net income for the 12 months ended January 31, 2023, included $0.7 million of operating expenses related to the acquisition of Astro Machine, Inc. For the twelve months ended January 31, 2022, GAAP net income included $6.0 million, or $0.82 per diluted share, in benefits related to an employee retention credit under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act and loan forgiveness under the Paycheck Protection Program (PPP). GAAP net income for fiscal year 2022 also included an expense of $0.5 million (net of tax), or $0.07 per diluted share, related to the write-off of the Company’s Oracle EnterpriseOne Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system.

Operating Segment Results

Product Identification

Product Identification segment revenue was $28.1 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023, compared with $22.4 million in the fiscal 2022 fourth quarter. Segment operating profit was $1.9 million, or 6.7% of revenue, compared with revenue of $1.5 million, or 6.5% of revenue, in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022, reflecting higher sales and an easing of supply chain pressures in the 2023 period.

For fiscal full-year 2023, Product Identification revenue increased to $103.1 million from $90.9 million for fiscal full-year 2022. GAAP segment operating profit was $7.9 million, or 7.7% of revenue, in fiscal 2023 compared with $10.4 million, or 11.5% of revenue, in fiscal 2022. On a non-GAAP basis, excluding the employee retention credit under the CARES Act, segment operating profit in fiscal 2022 was $9.0 million, or 9.9% of revenue. There were no non-GAAP adjustments to segment operating profit in fiscal 2023.


Test & Measurement

Test & Measurement segment revenue increased to $11.7 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023 from $7.3 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022, primarily as a result of favorable pricing actions and the continued recovery of the commercial aviation market. Segment operating profit was $3.2 million, or 27.3% of segment revenue, compared with operating profit of $0.5 million, or 6.8% of segment revenue, in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022, reflecting higher revenues, increased manufacturing efficiencies and favorable pricing actions in the 2023 period.

For fiscal full-year 2023, Test & Measurement revenue was $39.4 million, compared with $26.6 million in fiscal full-year 2022. GAAP segment operating profit was $9.0 million, or 22.8% of segment revenue, in fiscal 2023, compared with $3.4 million, or 12.8% of revenue in fiscal 2022. On a non-GAAP basis, excluding the employee retention credit under the CARES Act, segment operating profit in fiscal 2022 was $2.6 million, or 9.8% of revenue. There were no non-GAAP adjustments to segment operating profit in fiscal 2023.

Financial Results Summary

Revenue totaled $39.9 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023, compared with $29.7 million in the year-earlier period, driven by growth in both segments. For fiscal full-year 2023, revenue was $142.5 million compared with $117.5 million in fiscal full-year 2022.

Hardware revenue in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023 was $12.6 million, compared with $8.4 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022. Supplies revenue was $22.0 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023 versus $18.3 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022.

The increase primarily reflected the effect of higher revenue and lower manufacturing costs due to an easing of supply chain pressures in the 2023 period.

For fiscal 2023, gross profit was $48.2 million, or 33.8% of revenue, compared with $43.7 million, or 37.2% of revenue, in fiscal 2022. The increase in gross profit dollars was driven by higher revenue in 2023, while the decrease in margin percentage was primarily due to the mix impact of Astro Machine’s lower gross margins. On a non-GAAP basis, excluding the effect of employee retention credit under the CARES Act, gross profit in fiscal 2022 was $42.1 million, or 35.8% of revenue. There were no non-GAAP adjustments to gross profit in fiscal 2023.

Net income was $1.4 million, or $0.18 per diluted share, in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023 compared with a net loss of $0.8 million, or $0.10 per share, in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022.
