***Second Quarter Fiscal 2023 Results***

Commenting on the quarter's results, President and Chief Executive Officer David Dunbar said, "We are proud of the second fiscal quarter performance that came in ahead of our expectations. We posted 5.5% organic revenue growth year on year which was mostly offset by foreign currency headwinds, while operating in a challenging global environment. We achieved record gross margin of 38.5%, up 150 bps year on year and 80 bps sequentially. We also achieved record consolidated adjusted operating margin of 15.2% in fiscal second quarter 2023 - our seventh consecutive quarter setting a record. The sustainability of this achievement reflects our successful transformation to a high performing operating company that's able to adapt quickly to economic opportunities and challenges. We delivered year on year improvement in operating margin across four of our five business segments, while the Scientific segment margin remained strong at greater than 20% despite a tough year on year volume comparison related to COVID vaccine storage sales in prior year. Sales from fast growth markets such as electric vehicles, renewable energy, smart grid, and the commercialization of space increased approximately 35% year on year to $19 million in fiscal second quarter 2023, and we anticipate our fast growth market sales in fiscal 2023 to increase approximately 40% versus prior year."

------

"We remain confident in our ability to continue to deliver sustained growth driven by secular trends in our fast growth markets and continued differentiation with our customer intimacy model. As a result, we expect all our segments, except Scientific, to contribute to organic growth for the fiscal year."

"In addition, Standex's consistent cash generation and substantial financial flexibility continue to position us well to pursue an active pipeline of organic and inorganic growth opportunities. We rebounded from first quarter challenges and achieved free cash flow conversion above our target level of 100% in the fiscal second quarter and expect continued execution in the second half of the fiscal year. We have approximately $324 million in available liquidity and a net debt to adjusted EBITDA ratio of approximately 0.6x."

"Prior to our earnings release, we announced that we previously signed an agreement to divest our Procon business for $75 million, subject to customary post-closing adjustments. This transaction reflects the continued simplification of our portfolio and enables greater focus on larger platforms and fast growth market opportunities. Proceeds will be deployed towards organic and inorganic initiatives and returning capital to shareholders."

**Outlook**

In fiscal third quarter 2023, on a sequential basis, the Company expects a slight to moderate revenue decrease primarily due to unfavorable foreign exchange and the impact of the Procon divestiture. The Company expects slightly lower to similar adjusted operating margin, on a sequential basis, as price and productivity actions mostly offset the impact of a sales decrease. The Company expects higher adjusted operating margin compared to the same period a year ago.

By fiscal year 2028, the Company targets organic revenue growth at a high-single-digit compounded annual rate, adjusted operating margin above 19%, a return on invested capital above 15%, and a free cash flow conversion target ratio at approximately 100% of GAAP net income. Return on invested capital applies to the current portfolio of businesses and excludes the impact of potential acquisitions. Finally, with its substantial financial flexibility, the Company plans to continue to execute on an active pipeline of organic and inorganic growth opportunities.

**Second Quarter Segment Operating Performance**

**<u>Electronics (39% of sales; 46% of segment operating income)</u>**

| | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|
|  | **2Q23** | **2Q22** | **% Change** |
| Electronics ($M) |  |  |  |
| Revenue | $72.6 | $76.6 | -5.3% |
| Operating Income | 17.0 | 17.2 | -1.1% |
| Operating Margin | 23.4% | 22.4% |  |

---

------

Revenue decreased approximately $4.1 million or 5.3% year-over-year reflecting a 6.1% impact from foreign exchange, organic decline of 0.2%, partially offset by a 1.0% contribution from acquisitions. On a sequential basis, revenue decreased 3.5% primarily driven by softness in the appliances end market in Europe and the China slowdown. The segment is seeing positive trends in end markets like industrial applications, power management, renewable energy technologies, and EV-related applications.

Electronics segment backlog realizable in under one year of approximately $154 million increased 7% year-over-year. The segment had a book to bill ratio of 0.99 at the end of the fiscal second quarter.

Operating income decreased approximately $0.2 million or 1.1% year-over-year due to lower sales, labor and materials inflation, and unfavorable currency impact, mostly offset by pricing and productivity initiatives. On a sequential basis, operating margin decreased approximately 70 bps.

In fiscal third quarter 2023, on a sequential basis, the Company expects a slight to moderate revenue increase primarily due to strong demand across end markets in North America and increased sales into fast growth markets. The Company expects slightly lower to similar operating margin, on a sequential basis, due to unfavorable product mix and plant moves in China and Germany which were completed in early January.

**<u>Engraving (20% of sales; 17% of segment operating income)</u>**

| | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|
|  | **2Q23** | **2Q22** | **% Change** |
| Engraving ($M) |  |  |  |
| Revenue | $37.7 | $36.6 | 2.8% |
| Operating Income | 6.4 | 5.2 | 22.5% |
| Operating Margin | 16.9% | 14.2% |  |

---

Revenue increased approximately $1.0 million or 2.8% year-over-year reflecting 12% organic growth, partially offset by a 9.2% impact from currency. On a sequential basis, revenue increased 7.6%, exceeding internal expectations due primarily to higher project work in Asia. Operating income increased $1.2 million or 22.5% year-over-year, primarily driven by realization of previously announced productivity actions in North America and Europe, which more than offset the currency impact. On a sequential basis, operating margin increased approximately 20 bps, primarily driven by incremental volume. The segment had a book to bill ratio of 1.08, indicating continued end market stability.

In fiscal third quarter 2023, on a sequential basis, the Company expects revenue to decrease slightly and operating margin to decrease moderately due to unfavorable project mix.

**<u>Scientific (10% of sales; 11% of segment operating income)</u>**

---

| | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|
|  | **2Q23** | **2Q22** | **% Change** |
| Scientific ($M) |  |  |  |
| Revenue | $19.3 | $24.6 | -21.7% |
| Operating Income | 4.2 | 5.5 | -24.1% |
| Operating Margin | 21.6% | 22.3% |  |

---

------

Revenue decreased approximately $5.3 million or 21.7% year-over-year reflecting lower demand for COVID vaccine storage units. On a sequential basis, revenue increased 4.5%, primarily from higher sales into the clinical end market. Operating income decreased approximately $1.3 million or 24.1% year-over-year due to the lower volume, partially offset by price, realization of productivity actions, and lower freight cost. On a sequential basis, operating margin increased approximately 140 bps, primarily driven by higher volume and lower oceanic freight cost.

In fiscal third quarter 2023, on a sequential basis, the Company expects a slight revenue decrease and a similar operating margin as productivity actions and lower freight cost offset volume decline.

**<u>Engineering Technologies (13% of sales; 10% of segment operating income)</u>**

---

| | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|
|  | **2Q23** | **2Q22** | **% Change** |
| Engineering Technologies ($M) |  |  |  |
| Revenue | $24.2 | $18.1 | 33.7% |
| Operating Income | 3.7 | 2.3 | 61.7% |
| Operating Margin | 15.5% | 12.8% |  |

---

Revenue increased approximately $6.1 million or 33.7% year-over-year reflecting 36.2% organic growth, partially offset by a 2.5% impact from currency. On a sequential basis, revenue increased 42.3% due to project activity in the space and aviation end markets. Operating income increased approximately $1.4 million or 61.7% year-over-year reflecting higher volume and the impact of productivity and efficiency initiatives. On a sequential basis, operating margin increased approximately 450 bps, primarily driven by the sequential revenue increase.

We continue to expect a healthy backlog in the Engineering Technologies Group. In fiscal third quarter 2023, on a sequential basis, the Company expects a significant decrease in revenue reflecting timing of projects and a slight decrease in operating margin, as productivity actions mostly offset volume decline. We expect more favorable timing of projects in the fiscal fourth quarter of 2023.

**<u>Specialty Solutions (18% of sales; 16% of segment operating income)</u>**

| | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|
|  | **2Q23** | **2Q22** | **% Change** |
| Specialty Solutions ($M) |  |  |  |
| Revenue | $34.1 | $29.7 | 14.6% |
| Operating Income | 5.7 | 3.7 | 52.9% |
| Operating Margin | 16.8% | 12.6% |  |

---

Specialty Solutions revenue increased approximately $4.4 million or 14.6% year-over-year, reflecting healthy organic growth in Hydraulics and Display Merchandising businesses. On a sequential basis, revenue decreased 2.5% as improved volume in Hydraulics was more than offset by seasonal declines in the Pumps (Procon) and Display Merchandising businesses that serve food service end markets. Operating income increased approximately $2.0 million or 52.9% year-over-year reflecting the price and volume increases and realization of productivity actions. On a sequential basis, operating margin decreased approximately 60 bps due to lower volume in the Pumps business.

In fiscal third quarter 2023, on a sequential basis, the Company expects revenue to decline moderately to significantly due to the Procon divestiture and operating margin to increase slightly to moderately due to ongoing pricing and productivity actions in the remaining businesses.

------

● **Capital Expenditures:** In fiscal second quarter 2023, Standex's capital expenditures were $5.8 million compared to $4.7 million in the fiscal second quarter of 2022.

Capital expenditures were $23.9 million in fiscal 2022.

*Conference Call Details* 

Standex will host a conference call for investors tomorrow, February 3, 2023, at 8:30 a.m. ET.

Investors interested in listening to the webcast and viewing the slide presentation should log on to the "Investors" section of Standex's website under the subheading, "Events and Presentations," located at www.standex.com.

A replay of the webcast will also be available on the Company's website shortly after the conclusion of the presentation online through February 3, 2024. To listen to the teleconference playback, please dial in the U.S. (877) 344-7529 or (412) 317-0088 internationally; the passcode is 1809372. The audio playback via phone will be available through February 10, 2023. The webcast replay can be accessed in the "Investor Relations" section of the Company's website, located at www.standex.com.

*Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures*

In addition to the financial measures prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"), the Company uses certain non-GAAP financial measures, including non-GAAP adjusted income from operations, non-GAAP adjusted net income from continuing operations, free operating cash flow, EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization) adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA to net debt, and adjusted earnings per share. The attached financial tables reconcile non-GAAP measures used in this press release to the most directly comparable GAAP measures. The Company believes that the use of non-GAAP measures which include the impact of restructuring charges, purchase accounting, insurance recoveries, discrete tax events, gain or loss on sale of a business unit, acquisition costs, and litigation costs help investors to obtain a better understanding of our operating results and prospects, consistent with how management measures and forecasts the Company's performance, especially when comparing such results to previous periods. An understanding of the impact in a particular quarter of specific restructuring costs, acquisition expenses, or other gains and losses, on net income (absolute as well as on a per-share basis), operating income or EBITDA can give management and investors additional insight into core financial performance, especially when compared to quarters in which such items had a greater or lesser effect, or no effect. Non-GAAP measures should be considered in addition to, and not as a replacement for, the corresponding GAAP measures, and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.
