HI - NYSE

Hello and welcome to the Hillenbrand Q1 2023 Earnings Call and Webcast. [Operator Instructions] As a reminder, this conference is being recorded. It’s now my pleasure to turn the call over to Sam Mynsberge, Vice President, Investor Relations. Please go ahead.

Thank you, operator and good morning everyone. Welcome to Hillenbrand’s earnings call for the first quarter of 2023. I am joined by our President and CEO, Kim Ryan and our Senior Vice President and CFO, Bob VanHimbergen. I’d like to direct your attention to the supplemental slides posted on our IR website that will be referenced on today’s call. As a reminder, the Batesville segment has been classified as discontinued operations for all periods presented. Our commentary will be based on the performance of our continuing operations unless otherwise noted. Turning to Slide 3, a reminder that our comments may contain certain forward-looking statements that are subject to the Safe Harbor provisions of the securities laws. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and our actual results could differ materially. Also, during the course of this call, we will be discussing certain non-GAAP operating performance measures, including organic comparisons for our segments, which exclude the impact from acquisitions, divestitures and foreign currency exchange. I encourage you to review the appendix in Slide 3 of the presentation as well as our 10-Q, which can be found on our website, for a deeper discussion of non-GAAP information, forward-looking statements and the risk factors that could impact our actual results. With that, I will now turn the call over to Kim.

Thank you, Sam and good morning everyone. Thanks for joining us today as we review results from our first quarter of fiscal 2023. Last week, we closed the sale of Batesville, completing our transformation into a pure-play industrial company. This transaction represents a significant milestone in Hillenbrand’s journey. First, it builds upon the momentum we created over the last 12 months with the strategic acquisitions we made in food and recycling. It also simplifies our portfolio to fully focus on our expertise in developing highly engineered, mission-critical industrial processing equipment and solutions for our customers. And finally, it positions Hillenbrand for long-term profitable growth through our leading brands and attractive end markets supported by secular growth trends. I want to thank our associates who have worked tirelessly towards the successful completion of this transaction. I spent 17 years in my career with the Batesville organization and I am confident that both companies are in a place of strength as we move forward to pursue our own unique opportunities to create value. We have built a strong foundation at Hillenbrand, in large part to the tenets of customer service, lean operations, talent development and responsible corporate citizenship instilled through Batesville’s legacy. I want to thank the entire Batesville team for their contributions. Now I will turn to our first quarter performance. Despite continued uncertainty impacting the broader global economy, we delivered a solid start to the fiscal year. Our first quarter revenue from continuing operations grew 16% compared to the prior year, driven by our recent acquisitions and healthy organic growth for our Advanced Process Solutions segment. In the quarter, we saw good demand for our newly acquired food and recycling businesses and we saw continued growth in our aftermarket business. Our backlog, which now includes LINXIS and Peerless, nearly $2 billion at the end of the quarter and our organic APS backlog remained at near record levels. Our APS project pipeline remains robust for our highly engineered equipment and solutions across our key growth platforms of durable plastics, recycling and food. Starting with our core plastics business, we continue to see strong demand in Asia and the Middle East, as polyolefin and engineered plastics customers are quoting projects at increasing output requirements to meet the growing global demand for durable plastics. This is a positive trend for us as we are a global leader in providing complete systems with high-output, high-quality capabilities. Turning to recycling, as we have discussed, we believe recycling will be a high-growth area for us. Since our acquisition of Herbold last year the pipeline of orders have been even better than we planned, with growing demand in North America, India and the Middle East. We are excited about the momentum in this area, which we aim to further bolster with our recycling innovation center in Germany, which will be completed in April of this year. Now to food, we had better-than-planned orders and revenue in the quarter, driven by solid demand across North America and Europe. Through the combination of our Coperion and LINXIS technologies, we are seeing increased quote opportunities as customers recognize the value of comprehensive solutions which we can now provide. We have been able to adapt certain feeding technologies that were historically used for our plastics applications to help increase share of wallet with existing LINXIS customers and have already seen success with this approach within the first few months of ownership. Finally, our integration program is proceeding well and we remain confident in the value creation we expect to achieve from the LINXIS, Peerless and Gabler acquisitions. While we are seeing solid momentum in our APS segment, the uncertainty of the macroeconomic environment continued to pose challenges for our MTS segment, which tends to be quicker turn and serves applications that are closer to the consumer. As discussed during last quarter’s call, we experienced customer decision delays that resulted in order softness as we entered the quarter. This trend continued through the quarter, and while we’re optimistically monitoring the reopening of China, we’ve not seen the order pipeline convert yet as sales representatives are just now beginning to travel inside China again to drive these project decisions. Additionally, while the supply chain and inflationary pressures have begun to ease, we continue to experience shortages for chips and other electronic components, which more heavily impacts our MTS segment. We remain focused on deploying the Hillenbrand operating model to prioritize critical investments, manage discretionary costs and drive operational efficiencies in response to the extended softness. Bob will address this further when he covers our results and full year outlook. Overall, we continue to see strong performance and outlook for our ATS segment, while remaining focused on managing through dynamic macro environment impacting our MTS segment. As we communicated at our Investor Day in December, our renewed strategy for the next chapter of our journey is to grow, enhance and optimize. We are excited about the opportunities to continue our momentum through the disciplined deployment of capital towards higher growth, high-return investments that will further position Hillenbrand for long-term shareholder value creation as a pure-play industrial leader. Lastly, before turning the call over to Bob, I’d like to quickly provide an update on sustainability. With the recent changes in our portfolio, we have revisited our materiality assessment to ensure that we advance our sustainability strategy with our stakeholders in mind, while also incorporating our new acquisitions and accounting for the Batesville divestiture. We plan to publish the results of our survey in our upcoming annual sustainability report later this year. With that, I will now turn the call over to Bob to provide more details on our financial performance and outlook.

Thanks, Kim, and good morning, everyone. Turning to Slide 6, a few items to note throughout my section. As Sam mentioned, Batesville’s financial results are reported as discontinued operations for all periods presented. For today’s discussion and going forward, I’ll be reviewing our performance and providing guidance on a continuing operations basis only, unless otherwise noted. Results compared on an organic basis exclude the impacts of acquisitions and divestitures as well as foreign currency exchange. We believe these comparisons provide a clear assessment of our performance and you’ll find reconciliations of our GAAP and non-GAAP results in the appendix of the earnings slide deck. In our first quarter, we delivered revenue from continuing operations of $656 million, an increase of 16% compared to the prior year, primarily due to acquisitions, higher aftermarket revenue and favorable pricing. On an organic basis, revenue increased 4% year-over-year. Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations of $101 million increased 13%. On an organic basis, adjusted EBITDA increased 3% as favorable pricing and productivity improvements were partially offset by cost inflation and strategic investments. Adjusted EBITDA margin of 15.4% decreased 40 basis points primarily due to the dilutive effect of price cost. We reported GAAP net income from continuing operations of $27 million or $0.35 per share, an increase of 21% compared to the prior year. Adjusted earnings per share from continuing operations of $0.70 increased $0.14 or 25% compared to the prior year, primarily due to pricing and productivity improvements, the impact of acquisitions, fewer shares outstanding and a lower tax rate. This was partially offset by inflation, unfavorable foreign currency exchange and higher interest expense. This performance was ahead of our expectations coming into the quarter, as our total adjusted EPS, included Batesville, of $1 was above our original guidance of $0.85 to $0.93. The adjusted effective tax rate in the quarter was 25% and or 520 basis points favorable to the prior year, primarily due to a discrete onetime impact from a tax incentive in China for high-technology companies. We anticipate our full year tax rate to remain in the range of 29% to 31%. Cash flow from operations represented a use of cash of $6 million in the quarter down approximately $26 million from the prior year, primarily due to unfavorable customer advances resulting from order softness within MTS, which was more significant than we expected. As Kim mentioned, we continue to experience pockets of supply chain challenges in the quarter, causing inventories to remain above optimal levels while also causing delays in achieving certain project milestones, which resulted in higher-than-planned unbilled AR. We remain confident in our ability to drive strong working capital fundamentals across the business, and we’re cautiously optimistic that the broader supply chain will continue to improve as we work through the balance of the year. With that, we anticipate stronger cash flow in the remaining quarters and expect our full year cash flow conversion to be approximately 80% to 85%. I highlight this includes approximately $20 million of onetime cash charges related to the divestiture of Batesville that do not qualify for discontinued operations reporting. Excluding these items, our full year conversion would be roughly 90% to 95%. Capital expenditures were $15 million in the quarter, which was in line with expectations. Now moving to segment performance, starting on APS on Slide 7. APS revenue of $430 million increased 30% compared to the prior year, driven by acquisitions, higher aftermarket revenue and favorable pricing. Organic revenue increased 5% year-over-year. Adjusted EBITDA of $71 million increased 31% year-over-year. On an organic basis, adjusted EBITDA increased 9% as favorable pricing and productivity improvements were partially offset by cost inflation and an increase in strategic investments. Adjusted EBITDA margin of 17.3% increased 10 basis points, while organic adjusted EBITDA margin of 18.1% improved 70 basis points. As a reminder, the recent acquisitions have margins that are below our legacy segment performance, but we fully anticipate bringing these margins in line over the next few years through the deployment of the Hillenbrand Operating Model to execute on operational improvements and achieve synergies. Backlog of $1.63 billion increased 23% compared to the prior year or 11% on an organic basis, driven by strong order volume for large plastic projects and aftermarket parts and service. As Kim mentioned, we continue to see a solid pipeline of demand in our key growth platforms of plastics, recycling and food, and are excited about the opportunities we are quoting through our enhanced customer offerings across these end markets. Turning to MTS on Slide 8, revenue of $243 million decreased 2% year-over-year, but increased 2% on an organic basis as favorable pricing and higher aftermarket parts and service revenue were partially offset by a decrease in hot runner sales. Adjusted EBITDA of $43 million decreased 17% compared to the prior year or 11% organically. Adjusted EBITDA margin of 17.7% decreased 310 basis points as inflation, unfavorable mix and reduced operating leverage on lower volume more than offset favorable pricing. Backlog of $334 million decreased 18% compared to the prior year and 8% sequentially, primarily due to the execution of existing backlog and a decrease in orders for injection molding and extrusion equipment. We anticipated customer delays in MTS as we enter the quarter, though these persisted to a greater extent than initially expected, particularly within our injection molding product line. We now expect this cost softness to persist for longer than initially anticipated, which is now reflected in the updated guidance I will discuss later in the presentation. As Kim mentioned, we are taking measures to curtail our discretionary spend and prioritize investments to help mitigate the current demand softness. Turning to the balance sheet on Slide 9. Net debt at the end of the first quarter was $1.7 billion, and net debt to pro forma adjusted EBITDA ratio was 2.9. At quarter end, we had liquidity of approximately $689 million, including $195 million in cash on hand and the remainder available under our revolving credit facility. With the sale of Batesville completed, we expect after-tax net proceeds of approximately $530 million, which we plan to use to reduce existing debt. which will result in pro forma net leverage of approximately 2.6x at the end of December 31. Turning to Slide 10. As many of you know, we have a strong track record of deleveraging acquisitions, and we expect to continue this track record as we move forward. Now moving to capital deployment priorities on Slide 11. As a pure-play industrial company, we will look to deploy capital to maximize shareholder value through attractive organic and inorganic growth opportunities, as well as returning cash to shareholders through opportunistic share repurchases and dividends. while continuing to target net leverage within the range of 1.7 to 2.7. Now let me conclude my prepared remarks with our updated outlook. Turning to Slide 12, with the divestiture of Batesville, we were moving $600 million to $610 million of annual revenue and $0.95 to $1 of annual adjusted earnings per share from our guidance model, which reflects Batesville’s previously expected financial contribution as well as the expected reduced interest expense from the planned paydown of debt with the net proceeds from the sale. With that, our previous guidance would have equated to a total annual revenue of approximately $2.7 billion to $2.8 billion, and adjusted earnings per share of $3.15 to $3.50 on a continuing operations basis. Now moving to Slide 13. Given recent developments, including a more favorable expected foreign currency impact, the addition of Peerless and the softer-than-expected performance in our MTS segment, we are updating our continuing operations guidance for the full year. As a result, our guidance now assumes slightly increased expected revenue of approximately $2.8 billion to $2.9 billion for the year, with adjusted earnings per share from continuing operations in the range of $3.25 to $3.55, reflecting year-over-year growth of 20% to 31% on a continuing operations basis. Now turning to the segments. For APS, we are increasing our expected annual revenue range from $1.78 billion to $1.83 billion, previously $1.66 billion to $1.74 billion. This change reflects a more favorable expected foreign currency impact, primarily due to the stronger euro, as well as the contribution from Peerless, which we closed at the beginning of December. Our assumption for underlying organic growth remains strong at approximately 10% to 13%. We are maintaining our expectations for adjusted EBITDA margin to be in the range of 19% to 20%, which reflects underlying organic margin expansion of 60 to 100 basis points. For MTS, we are reducing our expected annual revenue range to be $980 million to $1.02 billion, previously $1.02 billion to $1.06 billion. As a result of the lower anticipated volume, we are reducing our adjusted EBITDA margin expectations to be in the range of 19% to 20%, from our previous guide of 20% to 21%. With the recent changes to our portfolio and the ongoing macroeconomic uncertainty, we are providing a Q2 guidance range for adjusted earnings per share from continuing operations, which we expect to be $0.65 to $0.73, which is essentially flat to slightly ahead of the prior year, as EPS growth, including acquisitions, is expected to be mostly offset by continued softness within MTS, unfavorable foreign currency exchange and a higher tax rate. Please review Slide 13 for additional guidance assumptions. As we look forward to the balance of the year, we continue to see strong momentum in our APS segment. which is helping to mitigate the order softness we see within our MTS segment. Our recent acquisitions are off to a solid start and performing ahead of our expectations. Our teams have remained nimble despite the ongoing macroeconomic uncertainty, and I’m confident in our ability to continue to position Hillenbrand for further growth and shareholder value creation as a pure-play industrial company. With that, I’ll turn the call back over to Kim.

Thanks, Bob. Before taking questions, I’ll end our presentation this morning with a few final remarks. Our strong backlog provides stability as we continue to navigate this challenging macro environment. And I remain confident in our proven track record of driving operational excellence through our organization, which is enabled by the dedication of our associates and the discipline instilled by the Hillenbrand Operating Model. Additionally, our recent acquisitions are off to a great start, and we remain committed to driving strong returns on these investments. The completion of the Batesville divestiture marks an important new chapter in our transformation journey. In my over 33 years at Hillenbrand, I’ve never been more excited for the future with our renewed focus and strategy to propel our growth as a pure-play global industrial leader. As discussed at our Investor Day, we’re well positioned to create value through our leading brands, serving large and growing end markets through our focus on highly profitable aftermarket growth and continuing to expand our capabilities through strategic M&A., by utilizing the Hillenbrand Operating Model to drive sustained operational improvements, productivity and synergies and by deploying capital towards high-return opportunities that we believe will maximize shareholder value. We remain committed to our purpose to shape what matters for tomorrow as we provide excellent opportunities for our associates, world-class product solutions and service to our customers, positive impact to our communities and a compelling value for our shareholders. We will now open the line for your questions.

[Operator Instructions] Our first question today is coming from Daniel Moore from CJS Securities. Your line is now live.

Thank you. Good morning, Kim. Good morning, Bob.

Good morning.

Thanks for taking my questions, and all the detail, particularly as it relates to bridging the gap between the pro formas, very helpful. So maybe start with APS. You mentioned some of the regions, obviously, plastics remained strong, food, recycling. Just talk about where you’re seeing incremental strength both by region and end market. And maybe just the outlook for margins. Beyond the current guide, looking out over the next 1 to 2 years, do you see margins coming up as those acquired businesses layer in and you generate synergies? And talk about kind of aftermarket parts and how those trend as a percentage as well. I know it’s a mouthful, but digging into that a little deeper is really helpful. Thanks.

Okay. Alright. So I’ll take kind of the demand and market base, and I’ll let Bob comment on the – how we’re layering those margins in. So from a demand standpoint, we continue to see overall stability. So let’s kind of look geographically. China reopening and now that they are through the Chinese New Year, the Lunar New Year, and resources are again able to travel in China that, that will, I think, be a positive momentum for us as we are allowed to get those projects we’ve been working on. Our sales and service representatives will be allowed to move around the country more freely to be able to continue to drive the project decisions on new capital, but also to implement service packages and commission the plants that we’ve been working on over the last couple of years in country, because that limiting of travel has been – has created some of the challenges that we’ve had in our rising AR that we commented on earlier. So as those resources are able to go and commission those plants, in China, we expect that, that will be a positive move forward for us. India, as – India and the Middle East, as we’ve commented, have been kind of areas of new demand geographically for the APS market. And those are projects that have been under discussion for some time but are beginning to move ahead in those two regions. We have footprint in each of those regions, both from a sales and service perspective and we are well positioned to be able to respond to customer needs there. The U.S. has been very stable. And in all of these markets where we’ve had capital implementations over the last few years, we’re beginning to see the service side of the equation begin to kick in. And as we’ve commented, we’ve seen good growth in our parts and service business, and that is also something that we’re really looking forward to over the next 12 months. So that’s what we see on the demand side for APS on the normal plastics business. On the food side, that business is primarily today and in U.S. and in Europe, and we’ve seen good demand in both of those areas, and we expect that to continue. The benefit of our acquisition with LINXIS is the long tenure and the quality of the brands that they have operating in that market, and the relationships that they have, both with local players and global multinational players that we continue to be able to work with them, and that will be a part of the value equation as we continue to cross-sell and be able to be more responsive with a broader portfolio that we can take into those markets. And on the recycling side, we’ve continued – as we commented, we’ve seen good demand in a variety of end markets there. And as a result of our presentations at K Show in October of this year and showcasing some of the more some solutions that we can now offer, we continue to be really encouraged about the demand we’re seeing and the quoting volume that we’re seeing in that business as well. Now I’ll let Bob hit margins.

And so as we think about just EPS margins longer term, over the next couple of years, we do see margins continue to improve, really driven by a couple of things. First one would be the continued application of the operating model, and certainly turning into about 100 basis points of annual productivity improvement year-over-year. I’d say the other thing to highlight, with the acquisitions we’ve made in the last several months, those margin profiles were below what our segment level margins are. And so we do see those accreting up to our segment level margins, not only through the operating model and continue to drive some more synergies, but also the aftermarket mix, which, as you know, I think we stated, is in like the low 20s of the revenue profile. And for us, it’s in the 30%. So we will continue to see those I guess that the application of our aftermarket strategy to continue to move those margins up over time.

Very helpful. Thank you. Maybe switching gears to MTS. It sounds like not quite yet, but I’m wondering if you’re seeing any pickup, if not in revenue, then maybe just in activity or inquiries following the lifting of COVID restrictions in China and, more recently, the passing of the Lunar New Year or is it still a little too early to tell?

We are really just getting back into that market, when you consider the market opened up in kind of mid-December, but then there was obviously a very significant increase in the number of COVID cases there, followed by the Lunar New Year and the preparations that many were doing for that. So, we are getting back to the more broad-based travel. We are reenergized with the sales force out and working with customers on projects that have been somewhat delayed from a decision standpoint. So, we are seeing a lot of activity there yet. We haven’t seen those convert into orders yet. And – but we are anticipating that, that will begin to pick up. And we expect that market, which is one of our larger markets to – especially in our molding products business, we expect that to improve over the remainder of the year. We had initially anticipated that, that softness would last just the first half of the year. We expect that may last into the second half of the year, and that’s reflected in our guide. On the injection molding side, we continued to see a little bit of delay and some slowness in decision making in our North America market. But again, remember that one of our primary markets there is the India market that has been more stable. But we expect to see some improvement there over the back half of the year, just perhaps not on the original timeframe that we had anticipated. But a strong footprint in India and a leading position in India, we think will serve us well as that market begins to pick up on the MTS side.

Great. And last from me, and I will jump back – jump out. But just talk about free cash flow, I appreciate the updated guide. It sounds like on an adjusted basis, it would be up in the 90%s range in terms of conversion. You still expect to trend back towards closer to 100% over time, and you still expect to exit fiscal ‘23 with net leverage kind of in the low-2s, excluding additional M&A.

Yes. So, simple answer is yes to both of those, Dan. As I mentioned in the past at the Investor Day, over a trend, we will be at that 100% free cash flow conversion. In the quarter, we did see, obviously, the MTS order pressure come through. And obviously, that turned into some lower cash advances. But over time, we still see 100% free cash flow conversion, and certainly cash flow picking up starting in Q2 here, not only from maybe orders coming back a bit, but also just our continued inventory levels continuing to be reduced over time as supply chain continues to improve. And on your leverage question, yes, we do anticipate being that low-2s range as we continue to pay-down debt. And so our 80%, 85% reflects certainly some of the impact from – reflects some of the cash advances, but also it reflects the costs associated with the Batesville transaction, that won’t qualify as discontinued operations. Those are somewhat of a one-time cash impact that you will see in the year.

Very good. Thank you again for the color.

Thanks Dan.

Thank you. Your next question is coming from Matt Summerville from D.A. Davidson. Your line is now live.

Good morning Matt.

Good morning. This is Will Jellison on for Matt Summerville this morning.

Good morning.

Good morning.

I wanted to start by asking you about price realization in the quarter with respect to both businesses, how that progress trended throughout the quarter and where you were with respect to price-cost spread?

Yes. So, throughout fiscal ‘22, we continued to improve our processes around pricing and price-cost through our global supply chain management team, and that continued through the quarter. I think I have mentioned in the past, our backlog was protected. And as we saw that execute, we continue to be price-cost covered in the quarter. We are slightly favorable in dollars, but still dilutive of about 10 basis points on our EBITDA margins because of price-cost. And so I would expect that trend to continue throughout the rest of the year. We will be favorable in dollars, but obviously dilutive on a margin percentage.

Understood. Okay. Thank you for that. And then as a follow-up, I would also like to learn a little bit more about the supply chain impact and how that progressed as we stand today, with respect to both your ability to ship and generate sales as well as the impact on free cash flow and your outlook there.

Yes. I would say – I will provide just a couple of comments. I mean on the free cash flow, it certainly impacted our ability to execute some orders. And so as supply chain is constrained, what happens is we are not able to hit certain billing milestones and that’s primarily on the APS side. But that – we saw that coming into the year, and so I would say those supply chain challenges are reflected in our free cash flow outlook. But I would say on a part, I mean we do see supply chain improving in certain areas. However, there are certain engineered products. And I would say the two things that have the longest lead times still would be gearboxes and motors, and some of those are up to a 52-week lead time. And so we have been building inventory over the last probably a year and placing orders on those to get ahead of that.

And chips, I would say. So, those are a couple of areas where we have seen some delays and we haven’t really seen the improvement yet. I think it’s important to note that some of these systems that are engineered specifically on the APS side have very highly engineered components in them. There are only a few suppliers in the world that can meet the required specifications for those parts. And so the – working things through the supply chain when you are on a very limited supply base can take longer on items such as those.

I appreciate you taking our question.

Great. Thank you.

[Operator Instructions] Our next question is coming from John Franzreb from Sidoti & Company. Your line is now live.

Good morning Kim and Bob. Thanks for taking the question.

Good morning.

Just a little bit more color on the molding technology side of the business. It seems like the order intake was a little wider than you anticipated. Is that a function really of the geographic puts and takes that you kind of highlighted, or is there something else going on, on the customer level that we should be cognizant of?

No. I think typically, when we – when there are concerns around slowdown, you typically see that in some of the short to mid-term projects because they can be – decisions can be delayed or stopped and started and you don’t have significant amounts of time that you lose. On very large-scale projects, we very typically see everyone investing through the cycle. Because when you are working on a 2-year or 3-year or 4-year project, you can’t try and hit the peaks and valleys, you have to – you continuously invest. But mid-term projects, short-term projects can be delayed when people have concerns around cash preservation or just kind of waiting to see what happens in the economy. So, we have seen that last a little longer than we would have anticipated, and we are responding to that. But the inquiries continue to be good. I wouldn’t say that it’s a geographic thing, save China. I think that the slowness we saw in China was absolutely isolated to some of the things going on around the zero COVID policy there in China, which is a large business for us in the MTS segment. But I would say, overall, I think this is just a general conservatism around making decisions and not wanting to start and stop projects, which obviously can drive up costs. So, rather delay the decision than start and stop something in the event that people need to slow down and preserve cash.

And when that business turns around, does it turn around quickly, or is it a gradual recovery?

Yes. And these short-cycle businesses, generally, I would characterize all the industrial businesses. Short-cycle businesses are first and first out. And the longer as you go out in duration, they enter the cycle later and come out later.

Got it. And just on the sales synergies, you highlighted Peerless and LINXIS. Could you talk a little bit about the opportunity profile as far as sales synergies? And what do you think is a reasonable benefit from bringing your businesses in with those?

So, yes, on the opportunity side, when – one of the things that we were really looking for was a place where we are going to be able to have kind of a one plus one equals three type of equation. And I think what LINXIS, what the LINXIS companies and Gabler and Herbold brought was extremely strong brands, great equipment providers. Periodically, they would sell those as subsystems, absolutely phenomenal customer relationships that have been built over long periods of time by – and great service that’s been delivered. But what we can add on the side from Coperion was a systems expertise and an ability to help augment their portfolio for things that they were previously buying out. And remember, the reason that the food market was particularly attractive or the recycling market is particularly attractive is because we have the capability to take our systems expertise, our highly engineered process knowledge and our products, which can be modified or reengineered to work in that market very effectively, bringing that together. And that is really something that we think is kind of a secret sauce to penetrating this market with broader facing systems, less things that have to be bought out and an ability to cross-sell among the two. We also think that our ability to create back office synergies and more efficient procurements and global supply chain processes to help support that group can also help influence the margin profiles that we are looking for as well as our operating model around aftermarket.

Perfect. And what are those margin profile drivers, is the increase of aftermarket sales, bringing it from the low-20s to the 30s. Could you talk about the steps that you need to do to get to the 30% threshold and a reasonable timeline to get there?

Yes. So, it’s – if you were to pull the playbook out on this and the steps that we have taken in our other businesses, it’s really around a couple of key steps. I mean we isolate that aftermarket business. And instead of kind of mixing it in with the capital business, we isolate it. We truly understand the profitability of that business. We named a leader that’s going to be focused on aftermarket. We put in process some disciplines around pricing, around proactive selling, around making sure that we have a clear vision of the installed base and that we understand where we are winning and where we have opportunities to improve share of wallet. And then it’s really just an execution of a very specific playbook that has been determined by really analyzing the information, identifying the opportunities and deploying dedicated resources that go – turn those opportunities into reality. I know it sounds very simple. It’s – when you are running a business, as I have done many times in my career, it’s easy to kind of lose sight of sometimes stepping back and seeing just a very specific playbook on how to go after that, can actually be really effective rather than trying to go after everything at once. And that has been successful in each of our businesses as we brought them into our operating model.

Great. Thanks for all the color. Appreciate it. I will get back into the queue.

Thank you.

Thank you. We reached the end of our question-and-answer session. I would like to turn the floor back over for any further or closing comments.

Alright. Well, thank you everyone for joining us on the call today. We appreciate your ownership and your interest in Hillenbrand, and we look forward to talking to you again in May when we will report our fiscal second quarter results. We wish all of you a great day. Thank you.
