Tennant Company reported a slight increase in net sales and a rise in net income for Q2 2022, driven by higher selling prices and the absence of a prior-year debt extinguishment expense, although gross margin was lower due to inflation and currency impacts.
Net sales increased slightly to $280.2 million, a 0.4% increase compared to Q2 2021.
Organic sales increased by approximately 4.4%, driven by higher selling prices, but were partially offset by volume declines due to supply-chain constraints.
Net income increased to $16.6 million due to the absence of a non-recurring debt expense and a gain on the sale of a building.
Adjusted EBITDA decreased to $30.3 million due to lower margins and unfavorable currency impact.
Tennant is confirming its full-year 2022 guidance but expects net sales, net income per share, and Adjusted EBITDA to be near the lower end of the range due to foreign currency headwinds and evolving market conditions.
