Balchem Corporation (NASDAQ:BCPC)

Financial Results for the Second Quarter of 2026:

The Human Nutrition and Health segment generated record quarterly sales of $176.9 million, an increase of $16.1 million, or 10.0%, compared to the prior year quarter. The increase was driven by higher sales within both the nutrients business and the food ingredients and solutions businesses. Record earnings from operations for this segment of $42.4 million increased $4.0 million, or 10.5%, compared to $38.3 million in the prior year quarter, primarily due to the aforementioned higher sales and favorable mix, partially offset by certain higher manufacturing input costs and higher operating expenses. Excluding the effect of non-cash expense associated with amortization of acquired intangible assets and other adjustments, record adjusted earnings from operations(a) for this segment were $45.9 million, compared to $41.4 million in the prior year quarter, an increase of 10.9%.

The Animal Nutrition and Health segment generated quarterly sales of $64.5 million, an increase of $8.4 million, or 15.0%, compared to the prior year quarter. The increase was driven by higher sales in both the monogastric and ruminant species markets. Second quarter earnings from operations for this segment of $5.2 million increased $1.7 million, or 48.7%, compared to $3.5 million in the prior year quarter, primarily due to the aforementioned higher sales, partially offset by certain higher manufacturing input costs and higher operating expenses. Excluding the effect of non-cash expense associated with amortization of acquired intangible assets and other adjustments, adjusted earnings from operations for this segment were $5.6 million compared to $3.8 million in the prior year quarter, an increase of 47.7%.

The Specialty Products segment generated record quarterly sales of $40.5 million, an increase of $3.3 million, or 8.9%, compared to the prior year quarter, due to higher sales in both the performance gases and plant nutrition businesses. Record earnings from operations for this segment of $12.9 million increased $1.6 million, or 14.4%, compared to $11.3 million in the prior year quarter, primarily driven by the aforementioned higher sales and favorable mix, partially offset by certain higher manufacturing input costs and higher operating expenses. Excluding the effect of non-cash expense associated with amortization of acquired intangible assets and other adjustments, record adjusted earnings from operations for this segment were $13.9 million, compared to $12.4 million in the prior year quarter, an increase of 12.1%.

Record consolidated quarterly gross margin of $103.7 million increased by $10.6 million, or 11.4%, compared to $93.1 million for the prior year comparable period. Gross margin as a percentage of sales was 36.5% compared to 36.4% in the prior year period, an increase of 10 basis points, primarily due to sales growth and manufacturing efficiencies, partially offset by certain higher manufacturing input costs. Operating expenses of $44.5 million for the quarter increased $2.8 million from the prior year comparable quarter, primarily due to higher compensation-related costs.

Net interest expense was $1.9 million and $2.8 million in the second quarters of 2026 and 2025, respectively. The decrease in interest expense was primarily due to lower outstanding borrowings and lower interest rates. Our effective tax rates for the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 were 22.8% and 21.9%, respectively. The increase in the effective tax rate was primarily due to lower tax benefits from stock-based compensation.

Second quarter cash flows provided by operating activities were $46.7 million and free cash flow was $36.2 million. Net working capital of $242.7 million as of June 30, 2026 included a cash balance of $63.2 million. Significant cash payments during the quarter included repurchases of common stock of $28.8 million, income taxes paid of $27.8 million, net debt payments of $17.0 million, and capital expenditures and intangible assets acquired of $10.9 million. Outstanding debt on our revolving loan was $152.0 million as of June 30, 2026 and our net debt (b) was $88.8 million, with an overall leverage ratio (c) on a net debt basis of 0.3 times.

Ted Harris said, “The Balchem team delivered another strong quarter in Q2 of 2026, and we remain confident in the long-term growth outlook for our company as we continue to execute our strategic growth initiatives.”

(b)

Net debt is defined as the outstanding balance on our revolving loan less cash and cash equivalents.

(c)

Leverage ratio is defined as net debt divided by trailing twelve months adjusted EBITDA.

(1) Amortization of intangible assets and finance leases: Amortization of intangible assets and finance leases consists of amortization of customer relationships, trademarks and trade names, developed technology, regulatory registration costs, patents and trade secrets, capitalized loan issuance costs, other intangibles acquired primarily in connection with business combinations, and finance leases. We record expense relating to the amortization of these intangibles and finance leases in our GAAP financial statements. Amortization expenses for our intangible assets and finance leases are inconsistent in amount and are significantly impacted by the timing and valuation of acquisitions. Consequently, our non-GAAP adjustments exclude these expenses to facilitate an evaluation of our current operating performance and comparisons to our past operating performance.

(2) Transaction and integration costs: Transaction and integration costs related to acquisitions and divestitures are expensed in our GAAP financial statements. Management excludes these items for the purposes of calculating adjusted EBITDA and other non-GAAP financial measures. We believe that excluding these items from our non-GAAP financial measures is useful to investors because these are items associated with transactions that are inconsistent in amount and frequency causing comparison of current and historical financial results to be difficult.

(3) Nonqualified deferred compensation plan (income) expense: Gains and losses on rabbi trust assets related to our nonqualified deferred compensation plan are recorded in other (income) expense while the offsetting increases or decreases to the deferred compensation liability are recorded within earnings from operations. The increases and decreases in the deferred compensation liability are driven by market volatility and are not a true reflection of company performance. We believe excluding these amounts from our non-GAAP financial measures is useful to investors because these items are inconsistent in amount based on market conditions causing comparison of current and historical financial results to be difficult.

(4) Restructuring costs: Restructuring costs related to a reorganization of the business are recorded in our GAAP financial statements. Management excludes these items for the purposes of calculating adjusted EBITDA and other non-GAAP financial measures. We believe that excluding these items from our non-GAAP financial measures is useful to investors because these are items associated with transactions that are inconsistent in amount and frequency causing comparison of current and historical financial results to be difficult.

(5) Income tax adjustment: For purposes of calculating adjusted net earnings and adjusted diluted earnings per share, we adjust the provision for (benefit from) income taxes to tax effect the taxable and deductible non-GAAP adjustments described above as they have a significant impact on our income tax (benefit) provision. Additionally, the income tax adjustment is adjusted for the impact of adopting ASU 2016-09, “Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting” and uses our non-GAAP effective rate applied to both our GAAP earnings before income tax expense and non-GAAP adjustments described above. See Table 3 for the calculation of our non-GAAP effective tax rate.

(6) Impact of ASU 2016-09: The primary impact of ASU No. 2016-09, "Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting" ("ASU 2016-09"), was the recognition during the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, of excess tax benefits as a reduction to the provision for income taxes and the classification of these excess tax benefits in operating activities in the consolidated statement of cash flows instead of financing activities. Management excludes this item for the purpose of calculating adjusted Income Tax Expense. We believe that excluding the item in our non-GAAP financial measures is useful to investors because it is inconsistent in amount and frequency causing comparison of current and historical financial results to be difficult.
