Bulls say / Bears say
Hawkins posted record second-quarter revenue, gross profit and EPS: sales rose 12%, including 11% organic growth, and diluted EPS increased 23%. All three segments grew, with Water Treatment sales up 16%. (Hawkins, Inc.)
Recent Water Treatment acquisitions extend Hawkins’ reach and product capabilities, including a new presence in Dallas–Fort Worth and added customer reach in Florida. These bolt-ons give the company more routes to serve a core growth segment. (Hawkins, Inc., Hawkins, Inc.)
Cash generation is helping Hawkins fund investment while reducing leverage: first-half free cash flow rose 14%, and the company paid down $15 million of debt and repurchased $18.6 million of shares. Its leverage ratio fell to 1.22 times adjusted EBITDA from 1.54 times a year earlier. (Hawkins, Inc.)
Raw-material and freight costs remain a margin risk. Hawkins said higher raw-material costs increased its LIFO expense and higher fuel costs were not fully recovered through freight charges in the latest quarter. (Hawkins, Inc.)
Food & Health Sciences sales grew 5% in the second quarter, but gross profit fell 4% and its margin slipped to 19% from 21%. Hawkins attributed the decline to lower margins in food and pharmaceutical products, highlighting weakness beneath the segment’s revenue growth. (Hawkins, Inc.)
The shares may leave limited room for disappointment: Barclays described Hawkins’ valuation as full at about 19 times EV/EBITDA against an earnings-growth outlook of roughly 6.5%. The firm also pointed to raw-material volatility and cyclical end-market exposure as risks to the risk-reward balance. (Investing.com)
