HEICO CORPORATION REPORTS A 33% INCREASE IN QUARTERLY OPERATING CASH FLOW AND 17% QUARTERLY ORGANIC NET SALES GROWTH AS THE COMMERCIAL AEROSPACE INDUSTRY CONTINUES TO RECOVER
3rd Quarter of Fiscal 2021 Net Income up 42% on Operating Income Increase of 47% and Net Sales Increase of 22%

HOLLYWOOD, FL and MIAMI, FL -- HEICO CORPORATION (NYSE: HEI.A) (NYSE: HEI) today reported an increase in net income of 42% to $76.9 million, or $.56 per diluted share, in the third quarter of fiscal 2021, up from $54.3 million, or $.40 per diluted share, in the third quarter of fiscal 2020. Net income was $218.2 million, or $1.58 per diluted share, in the first nine months of fiscal 2021, as compared to $251.7 million, or $1.83 per diluted share, in the first nine months of fiscal 2020.

While net income, operating income and net sales in the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal 2021 were adversely affected by the COVID-19 global pandemic (the "Pandemic") as discussed below, those impacts are declining over time. Improvement in commercial aerospace market conditions has been evidenced by four consecutive quarters of sequential growth in net sales and operating income at the Flight Support Group.

Net sales increased 22% to $471.7 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2021, up from $386.4 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2020. Operating income increased 47% to $100.8 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2021, up from $68.4 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2020. The Company's consolidated operating margin increased to 21.4% in the third quarter of fiscal 2021, up from 17.7% in the third quarter of fiscal 2020.

Net sales were $1,356.3 million in the first nine months of fiscal 2021, as compared to $1,360.8 million in the first nine months of fiscal 2020. Operating income was $277.9 million in the first nine months of fiscal 2021, as compared to $287.6 million in the first nine months of fiscal 2020. The Company's consolidated operating margin was 20.5% in the first nine months of fiscal 2021, as compared to 21.1% in the first nine months of fiscal 2020.

EBITDA increased 36% to $123.9 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2021, up from $91.0 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2020. EBITDA was $347.9 million in the first nine months of fiscal 2021, as compared to $353.7 million in the first nine months of fiscal 2020. See our reconciliation of net income attributable to HEICO to EBITDA at the end of this press release.

Consolidated Results

Laurans A. Mendelson, HEICO’s Chairman and CEO, commented on the Company's third quarter results stating, "We are very pleased to report much improved quarterly operating results within both Flight Support and Electronic Technologies. Consolidated operating income and net sales in the third quarter of fiscal 2021 improved 47% and 22%, respectively, as compared to the third quarter of fiscal 2020, which was the quarter in which our operating results were most negatively affected by the Pandemic. Our performance principally reflects quarterly consolidated organic net sales growth of 17%, and the favorable impact from our fiscal 2020 and 2021 acquisitions.

Earlier this month, we announced that Flight Support acquired 89% of Ridge Engineering, Inc. and The Bechdon Company, Inc. The purchase price of these acquisitions was paid in cash using cash on hand and we expect these acquisitions to be accretive to our earnings per share within the first twelve months following closing.

Our total debt to shareholders' equity ratio improved to 17.4% as of July 31, 2021, as compared to 36.8% as of October 31, 2020. Our net debt (total debt less cash and cash equivalents) of $117.1 million as of July 31, 2021 to shareholders’ equity ratio improved to a very low 5.3% as of July 31, 2021, down from 16.6% as of October 31, 2020, which provides the Company with substantial acquisition capital in the balance of our $1.5 billion revolving credit facility and other available capital.

Our net debt to EBITDA ratio improved to .25x as of July 31, 2021, down from .71x as of October 31, 2020. During fiscal 2021, we successfully completed four acquisitions and have no significant debt maturities until fiscal 2024. We plan to utilize our financial strength and flexibility to aggressively pursue high quality acquisitions of various sizes to accelerate growth and maximize shareholder returns.

Cash flow provided by operating activities was very strong, increasing 33% to $124.0 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2021, up from $93.1 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2020. Cash flow provided by operating activities remained strong, increasing 12% to $334.1 million in the first nine months of fiscal 2021, up from $299.0 million in the first nine months of fiscal 2020.

Looking ahead to the remainder of fiscal 2021 and to fiscal 2022, we remain cautiously optimistic that the ongoing worldwide rollout of COVID-19 vaccines will positively influence commercial air travel and will benefit the markets we serve. But, as we’ve all learned, it is difficult to predict the Pandemic’s path and effect, including factors like


-more-


vaccination rates and new variants, which can impact our key markets. Therefore, we feel it would not be responsible to provide fiscal 2021 net sales and earnings guidance at this time. However, our ongoing conservative policies, strong balance sheet, and high degree of liquidity enable us to invest in new research and development, execute on our successful acquisition program, and position HEICO for market share gains as the industry recovers."

Flight Support Group

Eric A. Mendelson, HEICO's Co-President and President of HEICO's Flight Support Group, commented on the Flight Support Group's third quarter results stating, "We are very pleased to report quarterly increases of 250% and 33% in operating income and net sales, respectively, as compared to the third quarter of fiscal 2020. These substantial increases principally reflect increased demand for the majority of our commercial aerospace products and services resulting from some recovery in global commercial air travel as compared to the prior year. This marks the fourth consecutive quarter of sequential growth in net sales and operating income at the Flight Support Group.

The Flight Support Group's net sales increased 33% to $237.1 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2021, up from $178.2 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2020. The net sales increase is principally from organic growth of 32%. The organic growth is mainly attributable to increased demand for our commercial aerospace products across all of our product lines.

The Flight Support Group's operating income increased 250% to $42.1 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2021, up from $12.0 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2020. The operating income increase principally reflects the previously mentioned net sales growth and an improved gross profit margin principally from the previously mentioned increased demand for our commercial aerospace products. Additionally, we had a decrease in bad debt expense due to certain commercial aviation customers filing for bankruptcy protection in the third quarter of fiscal 2020 as a result of the Pandemic's financial impact.

The Flight Support Group's operating margin improved to 17.7% in the third quarter of fiscal 2021, up from 6.7% in the third quarter of fiscal 2020. The operating margin increase principally reflects the previously mentioned increase in net sales, improved gross profit margin, and lower bad debt expense.

The Flight Support Group's net sales were $666.7 million in the first nine months of fiscal 2021, as compared to $731.2 million in the first nine months of fiscal 2020. The net sales decrease in the first nine months of fiscal 2021 is principally organic and reflects lower demand for the majority of our commercial aerospace products and services resulting from a decline in global commercial air travel attributable to the Pandemic.


-more-


The Flight Support Group's operating income was $103.4 million in the first nine months of fiscal 2021, as compared to $121.6 million in the first nine months of fiscal 2020. The operating income decrease principally reflects the previously mentioned lower net sales, as well as higher performance-based compensation expense and the impact from fixed cost inefficiencies stemming from the Pandemic, partially offset by a decrease in bad debt expense.

The Flight Support Group's operating margin was 15.5% in the first nine months of fiscal 2021, as compared to 16.6% in the first nine months of fiscal 2020. The operating margin decrease principally reflects an increase in SG&A expenses as a percentage of net sales mainly from the previously mentioned higher performance-based compensation expense and fixed cost inefficiencies, partially offset by the previously mentioned lower bad debt expense."

Electronic Technologies Group

Victor H. Mendelson, HEICO's Co-President and President of HEICO’s Electronic Technologies Group, commented on the Electronic Technologies Group's third quarter results stating, "Despite the Pandemic continuing to moderate demand for certain of our products, we are pleased to report quarterly increases of 14% and 11% in net sales and operating income, respectively, as compared to the third quarter of fiscal 2020. These operating results reflect the impact from our profitable fiscal 2020 and 2021 acquisitions, as well as strong quarterly organic net sales growth for the majority of our products.

The Electronic Technologies Group's net sales increased 14% to $239.5 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2021, up from $210.9 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2020. The net sales increase principally resulted from our fiscal 2020 and 2021 acquisitions as well as organic growth of 5%. The organic growth principally reflects increased demand for our other electronic, defense, medical, and commercial aerospace products, partially offset by decreased net sales of commercial space products.

The Electronic Technologies Group's operating income increased 11% to $69.0 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2021, up from $61.9 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2020.
The operating income increase principally reflects the previously mentioned net sales growth, partially offset by a slightly lower gross profit margin mainly from a decrease in net sales of commercial space products.

The Electronic Technologies Group's operating margin was 28.8% in the third quarter of fiscal 2021, as compared to 29.4% in the third quarter of fiscal 2020. The operating margin decrease principally reflects the previously mentioned lower gross profit margin.

The Electronic Technologies Group's net sales increased 11% to a record $706.2 million in the first nine months of fiscal 2021, up from $638.3 million in the first nine months of fiscal 2020. The net sales increase principally reflects our fiscal 2020 and 2021 acquisitions as well as organic growth of 2%. The organic growth principally reflects


-more-


increased demand for our other electronic and defense products, partially offset by decreased net sales of our commercial aerospace and space products.

The Electronic Technologies Group's operating income increased 8% to a record $200.4 million in the first nine months of fiscal 2021, up from $184.9 million in the first nine months of fiscal 2020. The operating income increase principally reflects the previously mentioned net sales growth, partially offset by a lower gross profit margin mainly from a less favorable product mix for defense products and a decrease in net sales of commercial space products, partially offset by an increase in net sales of other electronic products.

The Electronic Technologies Group's operating margin was 28.4% in the first nine months of fiscal 2021, as compared to 29.0% in the first nine months of fiscal 2020. The operating margin decrease principally reflects the previously mentioned lower gross profit margin."

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

To provide additional information about the Company's results, HEICO has discussed in this press release its EBITDA (calculated as net income attributable to HEICO adjusted for depreciation and amortization expense, net income attributable to noncontrolling interests, interest expense and income tax expense), its net debt (calculated as total debt less cash and cash equivalents), its net debt to shareholders' equity ratio (calculated as net debt divided by shareholders' equity) and its net debt to EBITDA ratio (calculated as net debt divided by EBITDA) which are not prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”).
These non-GAAP measures are included to supplement the Company’s financial information presented in accordance with GAAP and because the Company uses such measures to monitor and evaluate the performance of its business and believes the presentation of these measures enhance an investors’ ability to analyze trends in the Company’s business and to evaluate the Company’s performance relative to other companies in its industry. However, these non-GAAP measures have limitations and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of the Company's financial results as reported under GAAP.

These non-GAAP measures are not in accordance with, or an alternative to, measures prepared in accordance with GAAP and may be different from non-GAAP measures used by other companies. In addition, these non-GAAP measures are not based on any comprehensive set of accounting rules or principles. These measures should only be used to evaluate the Company's results of operations in conjunction with their corresponding GAAP measures. Pursuant to the requirements of Regulation G of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, the Company has provided a reconciliation of these non-GAAP measures in the last table included in this press release.
