Caesarstone Reports Third Quarter 2024 Financial Results
Maintaining Operational Discipline and Strategic Focus Amid Significant Market Headwinds -
Revenue of $107.6 Million -
Net Cash Position Improves to $108.9 Million, Reinforcing Strong Balance Sheet -
Reaffirms Full Year Outlook to Deliver Positive Operating Cash Flow and Moderates Adjusted EBITDA Expectations -
MP MENASHE, Israel – November 13, 2024 - Caesarstone Ltd. (NASDAQ: CSTE), a leading developer and manufacturer of high-quality engineered surfaces, today reported financial results for its third quarter ended September 30, 2024.
Yos Shiran, Caesarstone’s Chief Executive Officer commented, “Our third quarter results reflect revenue pressure across all our regional markets, putting weight on our business. The entire Caesarstone team’s unwavering commitment to our success remains evident with our transformation initiatives and optimized manufacturing footprint helping to drive a higher gross margin year-over-year. Our team is making progress in a difficult environment and maintaining tight control of operating expenses. That operational discipline and working capital management generated positive cash flow this quarter, keeping us on track for another full year of positive operating cash flow. With meaningful savings realized from our ongoing restructuring actions, we continue to make targeted investments in innovative products, brand development and marketing programs to help stimulate demand. We are confident in the direction of the Company and will continue to take decisive actions to restore profitable growth.”
Third Quarter 2024 Results
Revenue in the third quarter of 2024 was $107.6 million, compared to $142.4 million in the prior year quarter. On a constant currency basis, third quarter revenue was down 24.8% year-over-year primarily due to lower volumes. Volumes were primarily impacted by global economic headwinds, particularly in renovation and remodeling channels, across the Company’s main regions resulting in lower demand accompanied by greater competitive pressures.
Gross margin in the third quarter of 2024 improved to 19.9% compared to 19.1% in the prior year quarter. Adjusted gross margin in the third quarter was 19.8%, stable with the prior year quarter. Gross margin was stable on lower revenues mainly due to the benefits of an improved production footprint, partially offset by unfavorable product mix and increased shipping and material costs.
Operating expenses in the third quarter of 2024 were $25.4 million, or 23.6% of revenue, compared to $29.2 million, or 20.5% of revenue in the prior year quarter. The higher percentage is primarily due to lower revenues. Restructuring expenses during the quarter included a capital gain of $6.9 million from the sale of undeveloped land at the Company’s Richmond Hill Facility. Excluding legal settlements and loss contingencies and restructuring expenses, operating expenses were 28.1% of revenue, compared to 23.7% in the prior year quarter.
Operating loss in the third quarter of 2024 was $4.1 million compared to $2.0 million in the prior year quarter, with the difference primarily reflecting lower gross profit.
Adjusted EBITDA in the third quarter of 2024, which excludes expenses for non-cash share-based compensation, legal settlements and loss contingencies, and other non-recurring items, was a loss of $4.1 million, compared to a gain of $1.9 million in the prior year quarter.
Finance income in the third quarter of 2024 was $0.3 million compared to $1.3 million in the prior year quarter. The difference primarily reflects foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations.
Net loss attributable to controlling interest for the third quarter of 2024 was $4.2 million compared to net loss of $0.9 million in the prior year quarter. Net loss per share for the third quarter was $0.12 compared to net loss per share of $0.03 in the prior year quarter. Adjusted diluted net loss per share for the third quarter was $0.24 on 34.8 million shares, compared to Adjusted diluted net loss per share of $0.20 in the prior year quarter on 34.6 million shares.
Balance Sheet & Liquidity
On June 26, 2024, Caesarstone entered into an agreement for the sale of 69 acres of undeveloped land associated with its Richmond Hill Facility located in Bryan County for approximately $10.0 million. The transaction closed in the third quarter of 2024. The Company continues to look for avenues to monetize the remainder of the property, consisting of 51 acres of developed land and associated structures.
During the third quarter of 2024, the Company generated positive cash flow from operations of $16.3 million, mainly attributable to the land sale and working capital improvements, compared to operating cash flow of $28.2 million in the third quarter of 2023. As of September 30, 2024, the Company’s balance sheet included cash, cash equivalents and short-term bank deposits of $114.1 million and total debt to financial institutions of $5.2 million. The Company’s net cash position as of September 30, 2024, was $108.9 million compared to $83.5 million as of December 31, 2023.
US Legal Proceedings Update
The Company is one of several defendants named in 79 pending lawsuits in the United States alleging injury associated with exposure of fabricators and their employees to respirable crystalline silica dust. On August 8, 2024, the Company filed a Form 6-K in connection with a single claim in the U.S. following a jury decision against the Company. Adequate provisions and insurance receivables related to this decision were recorded by the Company during the third quarter. While this single decision will not have a material adverse effect on the Company, the Company cannot provide assurance as to the outcome of other pending litigation or that such litigation will not have a material adverse impact on its business, financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
Outlook
The Company reaffirms its expectation to deliver positive operating cash flow for the full year 2024, with cash generated in the first nine months more than offsetting a modest decline in the fourth quarter. The Company reiterates its expectation to realize restructuring-related cost savings of approximately $20.0 million in full year 2024 and $35.0 million thereafter compared to full year 2023. Given persistent macroeconomic pressures across the Company’s global footprint and increased shipping and material costs in the second half of 2024, Caesarstone now expects its full year Adjusted EBITDA loss to be in the range of $10 to $11 million.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The non-GAAP measures presented by the Company should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for, comparable GAAP measures. Reconciliations of GAAP gross profit to Adjusted gross profit, GAAP net income (loss) to Adjusted net income (loss) and net income (loss) to Adjusted EBITDA are provided in the schedules to this release. To calculate revenues growth rates that exclude the impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates, the Company converts actual reported results from local currency to U.S. dollars using constant foreign currency exchange rates in the current and comparable period. The Company provides these non-GAAP financial measures because it believes that they present a better measure of the Company's core business and management uses the non-GAAP measures internally to evaluate the Company's ongoing performance. Accordingly, the Company believes that they are useful to investors in enhancing an understanding of the Company's operating performance.
