Revenue and gross margin growth driven by strong data center sales, including benefit from Scott Springfield acquisition
RACINE, Wis., Feb. 4, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Modine (NYSE: MOD), a diversified global leader in thermal management technology and solutions, today reported financial results for the quarter ended December 31, 2024.
Third Quarter Highlights:
Net sales of $616.8 million increased 10 percent from the prior yearNet earnings of $41.2 million decreased $3.9 million, or 9 percent, from the prior yearAdjusted EBITDA of $87.3 million increased $13.4 million, or 18 percent, from the prior yearEarnings per share of $0.76 decreased $0.07, or 8 percent, from the prior yearAdjusted earnings per share of $0.92 increased $0.18, or 24 percent, from the prior year
“Our third quarter results were largely in line with our expectations and a continuation of the trends outlined last quarter, with strong data center sales leading the year-over-year revenue improvement,” said Modine President and Chief Executive Officer, Neil D. Brinker. “The Scott Springfield acquisition continues to perform exceptionally well, accelerating our growth and providing revenue synergies with numerous cross selling opportunities. This, along with strong organic data center growth, more than offset lower volumes in other areas of the business. Overall, I am pleased with our performance as we continue to grow and deliver strong results, while successfully managing through down cycles in many of Performance Technologies’ end markets.”
Third Quarter Financial Results
Net sales increased 10 percent to $616.8 million, compared with $561.4 million in the prior year. Sales growth was primarily driven by higher sales of data center cooling and HVAC and refrigeration (“HVAC&R”) products, partially offset by lower sales of heat transfer products and lower sales to automotive, commercial vehicle and off-highway customers.
Gross profit increased 18 percent to $149.6 million and gross margin improved by 160 basis points to 24.3 percent, which was primarily driven by favorable sales mix, including sales from the recently acquired Scott Springfield Manufacturing business and organic data center sales growth.
Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses increased $14.0 million to $82.0 million. The increase was primarily due to higher compensation-related expenses, including increased incentive compensation resulting from improved financial results, and SG&A expenses from the acquired Scott Springfield Manufacturing business, including $4.6 million of incremental amortization expense for acquired intangible assets.
Operating income was $59.3 million, compared to $61.7 million in the prior year, a decrease of 4 percent. The decrease was driven by higher SG&A and restructuring expenses as compared to the prior year and the absence of a $4.0 million gain on the sale of three automotive businesses in Germany in fiscal 2024. These decreases are partially offset by higher gross profit on the higher sales volume. The Company recorded $8.3 million of restructuring expenses during the third quarter of fiscal 2025, primarily for severance-related expenses within the Performance Technologies segment. Net earnings of $41.2 million decreased $3.9 million, or 9 percent, compared to $45.1 million in the prior year. Adjusted EBITDA, which excludes restructuring expenses, certain other charges, interest expense, the provision for income taxes, and depreciation and amortization expense, was $87.3 million, an increase of $13.4 million, or 18 percent, compared to $73.9 million in the prior year.
Earnings per share was $0.76, compared with $0.83 in the prior year. Adjusted earnings per share was $0.92, compared with adjusted earnings per share of $0.74 in the prior year.
Third Quarter Segment Review
Climate Solutions segment sales were $360.8 million, compared with $254.0 million one year ago, an increase of 42 percent, including $73.6 million of sales from the acquired Scott Springfield Manufacturing business. This increase was driven by higher sales of data center cooling and HVAC&R products, partially offset by lower sales of heat transfer products. The segment reported gross margin of 28.6 percent, which was 100 basis points higher than the prior year, primarily due to higher sales volume and favorable sales mix. The segment reported operating income of $62.4 million, a 54 percent increase from the prior year. Adjusted EBITDA was $75.7 million, an increase of $27.5 million, or 57 percent, from the prior year.
Performance Technologies segment sales were $262.2 million, compared with $310.9 million one year ago, a decrease of 16 percent. This decrease primarily resulted from market-related declines to automotive, off-highway and commercial vehicle customers and the impact of dispositions in the prior year. The segment reported gross margin of 17.8 percent, down 50 basis points primarily due to lower sales volume, partially offset by improved operating efficiencies. The segment reported operating income of $15.8 million, a $13.7 million decrease compared to the prior year, primarily due to lower gross profit and higher restructuring expenses. Adjusted EBITDA was $28.4 million, a decrease of $8.0 million, or 22 percent, from the prior year.
Balance Sheet & Liquidity
Net cash provided by operating activities for the nine months ended December 31, 2024 was $158.5 million, a decrease of $16.5 million compared to the prior year. Free cash flow for the nine months ended December 31, 2024 was $102.2 million, a decrease of $29.0 million from the prior year. Higher operating earnings in the current year was more than offset by a decrease in customer deposits associated with sales contracts with long inventory lead times and higher capital expenditures to support long- and short-term growth. In addition, cash payments for restructuring activities, acquisition and integration costs, and environmental charges during the nine months ended December 31, 2024 increased by $15.8 million from the prior year to $25.5 million.
Total debt was $370.8 million as of December 31, 2024. Cash and cash equivalents at December 31, 2024 were $83.8 million. Net debt was $287.0 million as of December 31, 2024, a decrease of $84.5 million from the end of fiscal 2024.
Outlook
“We are reaffirming our previously announced guidance for Fiscal 2025, which would result in our third consecutive year of record results,” added Brinker. “Our outlook for the data center business remains strong, driven by both organic growth and the Scott Springfield acquisition. The investments we’ve made to expand our technology offerings, accelerate new product development, and add manufacturing capacity are all contributing to above-market growth. In the Performance Technologies segment, we have taken aggressive cost actions as vehicular end-markets remain challenged. We continue to believe that this, along with our 80/20 focus, will allow us to drive higher margins and earnings.”

Non-GAAP Financial Disclosures
Adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, adjusted earnings per share, net debt, free cash flow, organic sales and organic sales growth (which are defined below) as used in this press release are not measures that are defined in generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). These non-GAAP measures are used by management as performance measures to evaluate the Company’s overall financial performance and liquidity. These measures are not, and should not be viewed as, substitutes for the applicable GAAP measures, and may be different from similarly titled measures used by other companies.
Definition – Adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin
The Company defines adjusted EBITDA as net earnings excluding interest expense, the provision or benefit for income taxes, depreciation and amortization expenses, other income and expense, restructuring expenses, acquisition and integration costs, and certain other gains or charges. Adjusted EBITDA margin represents adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of net sales. The Company believes that adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin provide relevant measures of profitability and earnings power. The Company views these financial metrics as being useful in assessing operating performance from period to period by excluding certain items that it believes are not representative of its core business. Adjusted EBITDA, when calculated for the business segments, is defined as operating income excluding depreciation and amortization expenses, restructuring expenses, and certain other gains or charges.
Definition – Adjusted earnings per share
Diluted earnings per share plus restructuring expenses, acquisition and integration costs, and excluding changes in income tax valuation allowances and certain other gains or charges. Adjusted earnings per share is an overall performance measure, not including costs associated with restructuring and acquisitions and certain other gains or charges.
Definition – Net debt
The sum of debt due within one year and long-term debt, less cash and cash equivalents. Net debt is an indicator of the Company’s debt position after considering on-hand cash balances.
Definition – Free cash flow
Free cash flow represents net cash provided by operating activities less expenditures for property, plant and equipment. Free cash flow presents cash generated from operations during the period that is available for strategic capital decisions.
Definition – Organic sales and organic sales growth
Net sales and net sales growth can be impacted by acquisitions, dispositions, and foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations. The Company defines organic sales as external net sales excluding the impact of acquisitions and the effects of foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations. Organic sales growth represents the percentage change of organic sales compared to prior year external net sales, excluding the impact of dispositions. The effect of exchange rate changes is calculated by using the same foreign currency exchange rates as those used to translate financial data for the prior period. The Company adjusts for acquisitions and dispositions by excluding net sales in the current and prior periods, respectively, for which there are no comparable sales in the reported periods. These sales growth measures provide a more consistent indication of our performance, without the effects of foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations or acquisitions and dispositions.

(a)
Restructuring expenses primarily consist of employee severance expenses, the majority of which were recorded within the Performance Technologies segment, and equipment transfer costs. The tax benefit related to restructuring expenses during the third quarter of fiscal 2025 and fiscal 2024 was $1.7 million and $0.4 million, respectively. The tax benefit related to restructuring expenses during the first nine months of fiscal 2025 and fiscal 2024 was $2.5 million and $0.5 million, respectively.
(b)
On March 1, 2024, the Company acquired Scott Springfield Manufacturing, a leading provider of air handling units for the data center, telecommunications, healthcare, and aerospace markets. The adjustment in fiscal 2025 includes $1.6 million recorded at Corporate for the impact of an inventory purchase accounting adjustment. The Company wrote up acquired inventory to its estimated fair value and charged the write-up to cost of sales as the underlying inventory was sold. The fiscal 2025 costs also include fees for accounting and legal professional services and incremental costs directly associated with integration activities. In addition, for purposes of calculating adjusted EPS, the Company also adjusted for $8.0 million of incremental amortization expense recorded in the Climate Solutions segment during the first nine months of fiscal 2025 associated with an acquired order backlog intangible asset, which will be substantially amortized by the end of fiscal 2025. The tax benefit related to the acquisition related costs and adjustments for the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal 2025 was $0.6 million and $2.2 million, respectively.
(c)
Environmental charges, including related legal costs, are recorded as SG&A expenses at Corporate and relate to previously owned facilities. The tax benefit related to environmental charges during the first nine months of fiscal 2025 and fiscal 2024 was $0.1 million and $0.6 million, respectively.
(d)
The Company’s sale of three automotive businesses based in Germany closed on October 31, 2023. As a result of the sale, the Company recorded a $4.0 million gain on sale at Corporate during the third quarter of fiscal 2024. The tax benefit associated with the sale totaled $3.1 million.

Why This Report Matters
Developers can separate announced electrolyzer capacity from renewable ammonia that has a committed buyer and a credible delivery schedule.Fertilizer companies and importers can evaluate the commercial importance of certification, fixed-price contracts and renewable electricity availability.Investors can assess why some projects advance with binding offtake while others remain exposed to cost gaps, policy changes and financing delays.
Market Overview
Green ammonia is produced using hydrogen generated from water electrolysis powered by renewable electricity, followed by conventional ammonia synthesis. It can serve fertilizer and chemical demand without changing the basic molecule, but production costs and emissions depend on the power supply and plant operation.
Early commercial output is concentrated in China and a small number of European plants. Indian supply contracts and international offtake agreements are expanding the project pipeline. Marine fuel is a longer-term opportunity, with demand dependent on vessel technology, bunkering infrastructure and shipping regulation.
Market Insights
Alkaline water electrolysis represented 73.6% of 2025 technology value.Fertilizers accounted for 68.3% of 2025 application revenue, the largest end use.Solid oxide electrolysis has the highest modeled technology growth at 63.37% annually, from a small base.Marine fuel is projected to grow fastest among applications, but its starting commercial base remains limited.Asia Pacific represented 60.2% of 2025 value, reflecting early Chinese plant output and demand.

Market Segmentation
The segmentation below follows the current report taxonomy and separates products, applications and buyers to avoid overlapping revenue definitions.
By technology: Alkaline water electrolysis; Proton exchange membrane electrolysis; Solid oxide electrolysis.By application: Fertilizers; Industrial and chemical feedstock; Power generation; Marine fuel; Other uses including hydrogen carriers and refrigeration.
Market Drivers
Fertilizer producers can reduce reliance on fossil-based hydrogen by purchasing certified renewable ammonia or replacing a portion of their own feedstock. Long-term supply contracts can make the economics more predictable for producers and buyers.
Large renewable energy resources and improving electrolyzer supply support new plants in China, India and prospective export hubs. Project economics still depend heavily on utilization and electricity costs.
Cross-border contracts create a clearer financing route than nonbinding project announcements. Importers that require renewable fuel certification can anchor investments in production and shipping logistics.
Regional Analysis
The following regional shares represent Credence Research estimates of 2025 market value. They are not independently audited supplier sales totals.
Asia Pacific | 60.2% share in 2025
Operating Chinese plants and Indian fertilizer procurement programs underpin the largest base. Japan and South Korea are potential import markets for certified supply.
Europe | 26.7% share in 2025
Pioneer projects and stringent certification requirements support premium demand, while high energy costs encourage some buyers to seek imports.
Middle East and Africa | 8.0% share in 2025
Saudi Arabian and other coastal projects seek to pair renewable power with export infrastructure, but project schedules remain important.
North America | 3.3% share in 2025
Electrolytic ammonia remains a small share of supply, with some producers favoring carbon capture on conventional plants.
Latin America | 1.8% share in 2025
Chile and Brazil have strong renewable resources and potential fertilizer or export demand, producing the fastest modeled regional growth from a small base.
Market Challenges
Renewable ammonia generally costs more to produce than conventional ammonia. Intermittent wind and solar power complicate operation of the synthesis loop and can require storage or grid balancing.
Many proposed projects lack binding buyers, permitting or funding. Uncertain global shipping rules can delay marine-fuel demand, so developers often prioritize fertilizer and chemical customers first.
Future Outlook
The strongest near-term projects are likely to be those with verified renewable electricity, certification and binding offtake. China remains an early production center while India and Gulf projects could expand exports later in the decade.
Marine fuel demand may eventually diversify the customer base, but the timeline is uncertain. Investors should distinguish operating tonnage from proposed capacity and account for power variability, shipping costs and policy risk.
Competitive Landscape
Envision Energy, State Power Investment Corporation and China Energy Engineering are linked to operating Chinese renewable ammonia projects. AM Green, ACME Group and NEOM Green Hydrogen Company are export developers, while Yara and Iberdrola participate in European pioneer projects. Air Products is a NEOM co-owner and contracted offtaker, not simply an independent ammonia producer. Fortescue is excluded from the active producer list because it canceled selected hydrogen projects in 2025. No reliable comparable company-by-company green ammonia revenue ranking is available.
