FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
FRIDAY, JANUARY 6, 2023
HURCO REPORTS FOURTH QUARTER AND FULL YEAR RESULTS FOR FISCAL 2022
INDIANAPOLIS, INDIANA – January 6, 2023 -- Hurco Companies, Inc. (Nasdaq: HURC) today reported results for the fourth fiscal quarter and fiscal year ended October 31, 2022. Hurco recorded net income of $1,424,000, or $0.22 per diluted share, for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022, compared to net income of $2,096,000, or $0.31 per diluted share, for the corresponding period in fiscal 2021. For fiscal year 2022, Hurco reported net income of $8,226,000, or $1.23 per diluted share, compared to net income of $6,764,000, or $1.01 per diluted share, for fiscal year 2021.
Sales and service fees for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022 were $63,462,000, a decrease of $5,520,000, or 8%, compared to the corresponding prior year period, and included an unfavorable currency impact of $5,929,000, or 9%, when translating foreign sales to U.S. dollars for financial reporting purposes. Sales and service fees for fiscal year 2022 were $250,814,000, an increase of $15,619,000, or 7%, compared to fiscal year 2021, and included an unfavorable currency impact of $13,872,000, or 6%, when translating foreign sales to U.S. dollars for financial reporting purposes.
Greg Volovic, President and Chief Executive Officer, stated, “It was exhilarating to be back together in September at the International Manufacturing Technology Show (IMTS), being able to showcase our new products and technological innovations over the last four years. The energy at IMTS was evident, and the attendees were highly engaged. Obviously, unprecedented events and uncertainty during the last two years have been challenging for our customers, our suppliers, and our entire industry. We are fortunate that Hurco has a strong balance sheet and decades of experience navigating industry and economic cycles that allow us to operate in such times with continuous focus on technological innovation, product development, and our long-term accretive growth strategy. The increase in sales of our advanced technology 5-axis machines in fiscal year 2022 validates our brand strategy to position Hurco as a higher technology tier machine tool manufacturer and reinforces the long-term benefit of our acquisition of LCM Precision Technology, S.r.l. (“LCM”), the Italian business we acquired in 2013 that designs and manufactures sophisticated 5-axis components. Without the negative impact of foreign currencies, we actually would have seen a small growth in fourth quarter sales and even stronger growth for the full fiscal year. We look forward to 2023 and are inspired to serve our customers, shareholders, and employees.”
The following table sets forth net sales and service fees by geographic region for the fourth quarter and fiscal year ended October 31, 2022, and 2021 (dollars in thousands):
| | Three Months Ended | | | Fiscal Year Ended | ||||||||||
| | October 31, | | | October 31, | ||||||||||
| | 2022 | | 2021 | | $ Change | % Change | | | 2022 | | 2021 | | $ Change | % Change |
Americas | $ | 25,810 | $ | 24,180 | $ | 1,630 | 7% | | $ | 95,964 | $ | 86,301 | $ | 9,663 | 11% |
Europe | | 32,118 | | 35,924 | | (3,806) | (11)% | | | 126,050 | | 117,522 | | 8,528 | 7% |
Asia Pacific | | 5,534 | | 8,878 | | (3,344) | (38)% | | | 28,800 | | 31,372 | | (2,572) | (8)% |
Total | $ | 63,462 | $ | 68,982 | $ | (5,520) | (8)% | | $ | 250,814 | $ | 235,195 | $ | 15,619 | 7% |
Sales in the Americas for the fourth quarter and fiscal year 2022 increased by 7% and 11%, respectively, compared to the corresponding periods in fiscal 2021, primarily due to inflationary price increases and an increased volume of shipments of VM and higher-performance five-axis Hurco machines.
European sales for the fourth quarter 2022 decreased by 11%, compared to the corresponding period in fiscal 2021, and included an unfavorable currency impact of 15%, when translating foreign sales to U.S. dollars for financial reporting purposes. This decrease was due mainly to the negative impact of currency, partially offset by inflationary price increases and increased volume of shipments of higher-performance five-axis Hurco machines in the United Kingdom and Italy. European sales for fiscal year 2022 increased by 7%, compared to fiscal 2021, and included an unfavorable currency impact of 11%, when translating foreign sales to U.S. dollars for financial reporting purposes. This increase was primarily driven by inflationary price increases, an increased volume of shipments of higher-performance Hurco, Takumi, and Milltronics machines across the European region, as well as increased sales of electro-mechanical components and accessories manufactured by LCM.
Asian Pacific sales for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022 decreased by 38%, compared to the corresponding period in fiscal 2021, and included an unfavorable currency impact of 7%, when translating foreign sales to U.S. dollars for financial reporting purposes. Asian Pacific sales for fiscal year 2022 decreased by 8%, compared to fiscal 2021, and included an unfavorable currency impact of 3%, when translating foreign sales to U.S. dollars for financial reporting purposes. The year-over-year decreases in Asian Pacific sales for the fourth quarter and fiscal year primarily resulted from a reduced volume of shipments of Hurco and Takumi machines in China and Southeast Asia, partially offset by an increased volume of shipments of Hurco machines in India. The reduced volume of shipments of Hurco and Takumi machines in China was primarily due to recent COVID-19 lockdowns and similar restrictions in major Chinese markets pursuant to China’s zero-tolerance COVID-19 policy.
Orders for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022 were $58,336,000, a decrease of $17,330,000, or 23%, compared to the corresponding period in fiscal 2021, and included an unfavorable currency impact of $7,115,000, or 9%, when translating foreign orders to U.S. dollars. Orders for fiscal year 2022 were $240,931,000, a decrease of $24,490,000, or 9%, compared to fiscal 2021, and included an unfavorable currency impact of $14,294,000, or 5%, when translating foreign orders to U.S. dollars.
The following table sets forth new orders booked by geographic region for the fourth quarter and fiscal year ended October 31, 2022, and 2021 (dollars in thousands):
| | Three Months Ended | | | Fiscal Year Ended | ||||||||||
| | October 31, | | | October 31, | ||||||||||
| | 2022 | | 2021 | | $ Change | % Change | | | 2022 | | 2021 | | $ Change | % Change |
Americas | $ | 24,079 | $ | 28,779 | $ | (4,700) | (16)% | | $ | 92,268 | $ | 95,767 | $ | (3,499) | (4)% |

Orders in the Americas for the fourth quarter and fiscal year 2022 decreased by 16% and 4%, respectively, compared to the corresponding periods in fiscal 2021, primarily due to decreased customer demand for Hurco and Milltronics machines, partially offset by inflationary price increases implemented during fiscal year 2022. Despite the year-over-year decrease in total machine order volume, machine orders for Hurco lathes and higher-performance five-axis machines increased during the fiscal year.
European orders for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022 decreased by 30%, compared to the corresponding prior year period, and included an unfavorable currency impact of 16%, when translating foreign orders to U.S. dollars. This decrease was driven primarily by decreased customer demand for Hurco and Takumi machines across the European region, partially offset by inflationary price increases implemented during fiscal year 2022, as well as increased customer demand for Milltronics machines across the region. European orders for fiscal year 2022 decreased by 8%, compared to fiscal 2021, and included an unfavorable currency impact of 10%, when translating foreign orders to U.S. dollars. This decrease was primarily attributable to the negative impact of currency and decreased customer demand for electro-mechanical components manufactured by LCM and Hurco machines in the United Kingdom, France, and Italy, partially offset by inflationary price increases implemented during fiscal year 2022 and increased demand for Hurco and Takumi machines in Germany and Milltronics machines across the region.
Asian Pacific orders for the fourth quarter and fiscal year 2022 decreased by 8% and 27%, respectively, compared to the corresponding prior year periods, and included an unfavorable currency impact of 12% and 4%, respectively, when translating foreign orders to U.S. dollars. The decreases in Asian Pacific orders year- over-year were driven primarily by decreased customer demand for Hurco and Takumi machines in China and Southeast Asia due to recent COVID-19 lockdowns and similar restrictions, partially offset by increased demand for Hurco machines in India.
Gross profit for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022 was $17,570,000, or 28% of sales, compared to $16,934,000, or 25% of sales, for the corresponding prior year period. Gross profit for fiscal year 2022 was $64,478,000, or 26% of sales, compared to $56,249,000, or 24% of sales, for fiscal 2021. During fiscal year 2021, we recorded approximately $1,243,000, or 1% of sales, for the employee retention credit extended to companies under the Economic Aid to Hard-Hit Small Businesses, Nonprofits, and Venues Act and the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021 (the “employee retention credit”). While the employee retention credit did not recur in fiscal 2022, gross profit as a percentage of sales in the 2022 periods benefited from increased sales of higher-performance machines, improved leverage of fixed overhead costs, and inflationary price increases implemented during fiscal year 2022.
Selling, general, and administrative expenses for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022 were $14,872,000, or 23% of sales, compared to $13,829,000, or 20% of sales, in the corresponding fiscal 2021 period, and included a favorable currency impact of $917,000, when translating foreign expenses to U.S. dollars for financial reporting purposes. Selling, general, and administrative expenses fiscal year 2022 were $51,731,000, or 21% of sales, compared to $46,001,000, or 20% of sales, in fiscal 2021, and included a favorable currency impact of $2,190,000, when translating foreign expenses to U.S. dollars for financial reporting purposes. The year- over-year increases in selling, general, and administrative expenses in the fourth quarter and fiscal year 2022 were driven primarily by increases in marketing and tradeshow expenses (IMTS in September 2022), sales commissions, and employee benefit and compensation costs, as well as increased one-time costs for administrative services. Selling, general, and administrative expenses for fiscal 2021 also included an employee retention credit of $1,672,000, or 1% of sales.
The effective tax rates for the fourth quarter and fiscal year 2022 were 31% for each period, compared to 26% and 33%, respectively, for the corresponding prior year periods. The year-over-year changes in the effective tax rates were primarily due to changes in geographic mix of income and loss that includes jurisdictions with differing tax rates, various discrete tax items, and changes in income tax laws to address the unfavorable impact of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Cash and cash equivalents totaled $63,922,000 at October 31, 2022, compared to $84,063,000 at October 31, 2021. Working capital was $194,733,000 at October 31, 2022, compared to $208,700,000 at October 31, 2021. The decrease in working capital was primarily driven by decreases in cash and cash equivalents, prepaid assets and accounts receivable, partially offset by decreases in accounts payable and customer deposits and an increase in inventories.
Also today, Hurco announced that its Board of Directors approved a share repurchase program in an aggregate amount of up to $25,000,000. Repurchases under the program may be made in the open market or through privately negotiated transactions from time to time through November 10, 2024, subject to applicable laws and regulations. The program may be amended, suspended, or discontinued at any time and does not commit Hurco to repurchase any shares of its common stock. Hurco’s existing share repurchase program also remains in effect, under which $4.1 million remained available as of January 6, 2023.
Greg Volovic stated, “It is critical that we continue to have a balanced capital allocation strategy that prioritizes a strong balance sheet and optimal liquidity while recognizing the importance of accretive growth and shareholder value We have implemented a two-year stock repurchase plan that we believe will enhance shareholder value and continue to allow us to invest in capital expenditures, make new investments in emerging technologies and research and development, and pay dividends. While we evaluated potential strategic acquisitions during fiscal year 2022, the volatile macroeconomic environment was not conducive to transacting. We remain committed to evaluating future acquisitions and believe that economic downturns will present opportunities to acquire businesses accretive to ours. The ability to return value to shareholders, even during periods of economic uncertainty, is a testament to the company’s fiscally responsible culture and long-term growth perspective.”
