“We generated strong growth in our Building HVAC (“BHVAC”) and Commercial and Industrial Solutions (“CIS”)
segments this quarter, and are starting to see the early benefits of the 80/20 actions taken in fiscal 2022 to
simplify our business and improve profitability,” said Modine President and Chief Executive Officer, Neil D.
Brinker. “We continue to work diligently to offset inflationary pressures, particularly the impact of higher material
costs. We have focused on improving our commercial processes, including instituting multiple pricing
adjustments throughout the year. This was particulary evident in our CIS segment, which benefited from early
execution of 80/20 actions by our leadership team. Finally, we continue to focus on taking actions to improve
margins, including moving forward with the restructuring plans announced last quarter to reprioritize resources
and capital. Overall, we are pleased with a strong finish to our fiscal year and the realization of early benefits from
our deliberate, strategic actions.”

Financial Results
Net sales increased 12 percent in the fourth quarter to $574.4 million, compared with $514.9 million in the prior
year. The increase was driven by market-related volume improvements and favorable pricing adjustments in
response to raw material price increases in the CIS, BHVAC and Heavy Duty Equipment (“HDE”) segments, but
was partially offset by a $23.1 million sales decrease in the Automotive segment, which was impacted by the sale
of the air-cooled business in the first quarter of fiscal 2022 and the ongoing semiconductor shortages.
Gross profit increased 14 percent in the fourth quarter to $95.2 million and gross margin improved by 30 basis
points to 16.6 percent. These increases were primarily driven by the higher sales volume, partially offset by the
ongoing impact of higher material prices, including underlying metal prices and related premiums, fabrication,
freight and packaging costs, compared to the prior year.

Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses were $53.5 million in the fourth quarter, which was 10
percent lower than the prior year. This decrease was primarily driven by lower incentive compensation expenses
and lower automotive exit strategy costs, as compared to the prior year.

Operating income in the fourth quarter was $20.6 million, compared to an operating loss of $14.3 million in the
prior year. This improvement was driven primarily by the absence of $32.4 million of impairment charges
recorded in the prior year, higher gross profit, and lower SG&A expenses. These favorable drivers were partially
offset by higher restructuring expenses compared to the prior year. During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022, the
Company recorded $21.1 million of restructuring charges, primarily related to targeted headcount reductions.
Excluding restructuring charges and certain other charges totaling $0.6 million, as well as depreciation and
amortization expense, adjusted EBITDA of $56.7 million increased $14.5 million, or 34 percent, compared with
$42.2 million in the prior year.

Earnings per share was $0.16 in the fourth quarter, compared with a loss per share of $0.29 in the fourth quarter
last year. This improvement was primarily due to higher operating earnings, including the absence of significant
impairment charges recorded in the prior year. Adjusted earnings per share was $0.57 in the fourth quarter,
compared with adjusted earnings per share of $0.51 in the fourth quarter last year.

Fourth Quarter Segment Review
• BHVAC segment sales were $101.9 million, compared with $66.9 million one year ago, an increase of 52
percent. This increase was driven by higher sales to data center and commercial HVAC customers. The
higher commercial HVAC sales were driven by higher sales of heating and school ventilation products.
The segment reported gross margin of 27.9 percent, which was 310 basis points lower than the prior
year, primarily due to higher inflationary costs, including freight charges, and unfavorable sales mix. The
segment reported operating income of $15.6 million, a 63 percent increase from the prior year. Adjusted
EBITDA for the BHVAC segment was $17.4 million, an increase of $6.4 million, or 58 percent, from the
prior year.
• CIS segment sales were $171.3 million, compared with $142.8 million one year ago, an increase of 20
percent. This increase was driven by higher sales to commercial HVAC and refrigeration customers and
favorable pricing adjustments in response to raw material price increases. The segment reported gross
margin of 18.5 percent, up 490 basis points compared with the prior year, primarily due to the positive
impact of increased sales volume, favorable sales mix, pricing, and operational efficiencies. The segment
reported operating income of $18.6 million, a $12.8 million improvement from the prior year, primarily due
to higher gross profit on increased sales. Adjusted EBITDA for the CIS segment was $24.1 million, an
increase of $11.9 million, or 98 percent, from the prior year.
• HDE segment sales were $226.1 million, compared with $207.4 million one year ago, an increase of 9
percent. This increase was driven by higher sales to off-highway, bus and specialty vehicle customers,
and includes a significant impact from material pass through price increases. The segment reported gross
margin of 10.7 percent, down 250 basis points from the prior year. This decrease was primarily driven by
higher material prices in excess of contractual pricing adjustments along with higher freight, packaging
and surcharges. The segment reported operating income of $9.6 million, a $3.6 million decrease compared to the prior year. This decrease was primarily due to lower gross profit. Adjusted EBITDA for
the HDE segment was $15.6 million, a decrease of $5.2 million from the prior year.
• Automotive segment sales were $89.3 million, compared with $112.4 million one year ago, a decrease of
21 percent. This decrease was primarily driven by the sale of the air-cooled automotive business earlier
this fiscal year and, to a lesser extent, the impact of the ongoing semiconductor shortage on automotive
production volumes. The segment reported gross margin of 12.8 percent, down 160 basis points
compared with the prior year, primarily due to lower sales volume. The segment reported an operating
loss of $18.2 million, an improvement of $12.0 million from the prior year. The operating loss in the
current year was negatively impacted by $20.1 million of restructuring expenses, primarily related to
targeted headcount reductions in Europe. The operating loss in the prior year was negatively impacted
by $32.4 million of impairment charges, which were primarily related to the air-cooled automotive
business that was sold earlier in fiscal 2022. Adjusted EBITDA for the Automotive segment was $3.6
million, compared with adjusted EBITDA of $5.9 million in the prior year.

Full-Year Fiscal 2022 Overview
In fiscal 2022, net sales increased 13 percent to $2,050.1 million. The increase was primarily driven by higher
sales in the HDE, CIS, and BHVAC segments, partially offset by lower sales in the Automotive segment, which
decreased 21 percent from the prior year. Automotive sales were lower due to the sale of the air-cooled
automotive business early in the fiscal year and the impact of the ongoing semiconductor shortage on automotive
production volumes. Gross margin decreased 110 basis points to 15.1 percent, primarily due to the significant
increase in material prices, including underlying metal prices and related premiums, fabrication, freight and
packaging costs, compared to the prior year.

The Company reported operating income of $119.2 million compared to a $97.7 million operating loss in the prior
year. This $216.9 million improvement was driven primarily by $166.8 million of impairment charges recorded in
the prior year and the partial reversal of those charges in the current year. During fiscal 2022, the Company
recorded net impairment reversals totaling $55.7 million and recorded restructuring expenses, a loss on sale of
the air-cooled automotive business, and certain other charges totaling $40.5 million. During fiscal 2021,
impairment charges, restructuring expenses, and certain other charges totaled $193.9 million. Excluding these
items and depreciation and amortization expense, adjusted EBITDA was $158.8 million in fiscal 2022 and $164.8
million in fiscal 2021. Earnings per share in fiscal 2022 was $1.62 compared with a loss per share of $4.11 in
fiscal 2021, and adjusted earnings per share in fiscal 2022 was $1.23, compared with $1.14 in fiscal 2021.

Balance Sheet & Liquidity
Net cash provided by operating activities for the year ended March 31, 2022 was $11.5 million, a decrease of
$138.3 million compared to the prior year. Free cash flow for the year ended March 31, 2022 was a use of $28.8
million, down $145.9 million from the prior year, primarily resulting from unfavorable net changes in working
capital and higher capital expenditures as compared to the prior year. Higher inventory balances resulted from
increased raw material prices and strategic safety stock builds in connection with supply chain challenges. In
addition, free cash flow was unusually strong in the prior year due to the deferral of certain cash payments in an
effort to conserve cash in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, including the purchase of certain program-related
equipment and tooling. Cash payments for restructuring activities, automotive exit strategy costs, strategic
reorganization costs, environmental costs and certain other items during fiscal 2022 totaled $19.7 million.
Total debt was $377.8 million as of March 31, 2022. Cash and cash equivalents at March 31, 2022 were $45.2
million. Net debt was $332.6 million as of March 31, 2022, an increase of $35.9 million from the end of fiscal
2021.

Outlook
“Although we currently expect our key markets to remain strong, we continue to monitor and assess the
uncertainty created by inflationary risks, the lockdowns in China and the war in the Ukraine,” said Brinker. “We
are aggressively addressing these risks along with the ongoing volatility created by the supply chain challenges
around the globe, and are working to strengthen our customer and supplier relationships. Similarly, we remain
diligent in addressing inflationary pressures with further commercial actions as well as executing on our
previously announced cost reduction initiatives. Our key focus remains on growth in our target verticals, while
simultaneously taking actions to reduce complexity and improve margins where we see opportunities for
efficiencies. This is an inflection point for Modine as we anticipate that the actions taken this year will unlock the
inherent value in the underlying business and provide benefits in fiscal 2023 and beyond. We look forward to
providing an overview of our strategies and expectations during our Investor and Analyst Day next month.”
Based on current exchange rates and market outlook, Modine provides its outlook for fiscal 2023:
• Full fiscal year-over-year sales up 6 to 12 percent;
• Adjusted EBITDA of $180 million to $195 million.

Non-GAAP Financial Disclosures
Adjusted EBITDA, adjusted earnings per share, net debt, and free cash flow (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. The Company believes these measures provide a more consistent view of
performance than the closest GAAP equivalent for management and investors. Management compensates for
this by using these measures in combination with the GAAP measures. However, 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
Net earnings excluding interest expense, the provision or benefit for income taxes, depreciation and amortization
expenses, other income and expense, restructuring expenses, impairment charges, costs associated with the
review of strategic alternatives for the Automotive segment’s business operations, strategic reorganization costs,
and certain other gains or charges. The Company believes that adjusted EBITDA provides a relevant measure of
profitability and earnings power. The Company views this financial metric as being useful to assess 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 GAAP operating income
excluding depreciation and amortization expenses, restructuring expenses, impairment charges or reversals, and
certain other gains or charges.

Definition – Adjusted earnings per share
Diluted earnings per share plus restructuring expenses, impairment charges or reversals, costs associated with
the review of strategic alternatives for the Automotive segment’s business operations, strategic reorganization
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 non-cash impairment charges, costs
associated with restructuring activities 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. This 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. This measure presents cash generated from operations during the period that is available for strategic
capital decisions.

Forward-looking non-GAAP financial measure
The Company’s fiscal 2023 guidance includes adjusted EBITDA, as defined above, which is a non-GAAP
financial measure. The full-year fiscal 2023 guidance for adjusted EBITDA is based upon the Company’s
estimates for interest expense of approximately $16 to $17 million, a provision for income taxes of approximately
$24 to $28 million, and depreciation and amortization expense of approximately $58 to $62 million. Adjusted
EBITDA also excludes certain cash and non-cash expenses or gains. These expenses and gains may be
significant and include items such as restructuring expenses (including severance costs and plant consolidation
and relocation expenses), impairment charges and certain other items. Estimates of these expenses and gains
for fiscal 2023 are not available due to the low visibility and unpredictability of these items.
