Thank you, Gary. I appreciate everyone joining us today. I hope everyone is staying safe and healthy. As noted in this morning's press release, we achieved record sales for our fiscal first quarter. Our new fiscal year is off to an excellent start with strong demand for our products across multiple categories.

Let me start by providing some color about our hard parts business and then briefly discuss our emerging presence within the electric vehicle market.

The outlook for hard parts replacement continues to accelerate, despite global health issues related to new COVID-19 variants and challenges impacting the supply chain, both of which don't really require much explanation given the extent of daily news coverage of the situation.

Let's just say the challenges are real from a social and business standpoint, and we are doing our part to keep our employees safe and our customers prepared for continued strong demand for automotive replacement parts.

Historically, I might add, we do experience some seasonality to customer order patterns, but the fiscal first quarter usually being somewhat less robust and the second and fourth quarter relatively stronger.

Clearly, our strong fiscal first quarter sales performance, despite associated COVID-related challenges seems to have changed this historical pattern, that we will see what the new normal will be in the quarters ahead.

Regardless, it is great for our business that drivers are returning to the roads and demand for automotive hard parts is as strong as ever. As I mentioned during our call in June, we are benefiting from our investments from multi-growth platforms in our hard parts business.

We expect each of our product lines to grow, and we are focused on meeting the increased demand in all categories. Our newest product line, brake calipers, continues to gain traction, excuse the pun.

And we are focused on meeting the increasing demand in this important category, taking full advantage of our state-of-the-art brake caliper remanufacturing facilities and infrastructure, including core sorting and distribution. The market for our current hard parts categories represents more than $6 billion at the retail level.

There are approximately 287 million vehicles on the road with an average age of 12.1 years in the United States alone, which fuels our optimism about the growth opportunities in our aftermarket hard parts business. This will fuel growth in the aftermarket parts replacement industries well beyond electric vehicles becoming mainstream.

You've heard me say before that people are keeping their vehicles longer. Used car sales continue to climb to record levels, resulting in increased miles driven by OKVs, our kind of vehicles. Obviously, this bodes well for the aftermarket parts replacement industry and our nondiscretionary product offerings.

I want to sound like a broken record, but as vehicles age, the rate of replacement of parts increases substantially. Cars in the 0- to 3-year age group have a replacement rate for alternators of 2.42% compared with 6.65% in the 12-year and above age group.

As I mentioned during our fiscal year-end call, our facility expansion in Malaysia is now complete, and we are focused on utilizing this increased capacity and productivity across multiple product lines to reduce dependence on outsourcing.

While COVID and related supply chain challenges continue in Malaysia, we see tremendous opportunities to leverage our presence in Malaysia and support our customers. With regard to our emerging presence within the electric vehicle marketplace, we remain enthusiastic about the outlook.

Encouraged by new strategic partnerships, engineering strength, industry-leading technology and the significant opportunities as driving electric vehicle driving options evolve. While we don't see -- while we don't segment report, let me just make a few comments about this exciting business.

As many of you know, we acquired the D&V Electronics business in 2017, in part to complement our rotating electrical business and offer our retail customers a superior testing product for alternators and starters than was currently available.

Sales are increasing, and we are gaining renewed interest from our retail customers as deferred spending due to the pandemic resumes. Demand for test equipment related to performance, endurance and production of electric motors, inverters and belt-start generators for EV vehicles is also gaining momentum.

All of these opportunities have required investments, but given the $5.4 billion estimated global automotive testing market, we believe the investments will generate solid returns. We expect this business to start generating profits beginning in this current fiscal 2022 second quarter.

In addition, our vision is to offer EV manufacturers, contract testing services via our newly established Detroit Technical Center. And this also offers significant growth opportunities, and we look forward to announcing developments in this area.

In short, our strategy before and since the pandemic has been to leverage our significant channel relationships for aftermarket parts and offer superior parts and solutions to our customers and consumers.

Certainly, there are extraordinary challenges facing the aftermarket industry today, including supply chain, freight and other pandemic-related headwinds. We continue to experience supply chain challenges for freight, steel, semiconductors and packaging to mention a few items.

We think these are short-term issues, but there is still much uncertainty in the supply chain. We are working hard with our global team to manage production while working with our suppliers and logistics providers to address the challenges.

Market dynamics and rational economics, including price increases, supported by our customers will contribute to overcoming these challenges as we focus on taking full advantage of our competitive strengths.

In summary, in spite of the challenges, our entire company is well positioned for sustainable top and bottom line growth for parts and solutions that move our world today and tomorrow. Our footprint for the future has become a reality, and we are encouraged by the strong demand for automotive replacement parts despite global COVID dynamics.

I can assure you we remain focused on benefiting from our multiyear strategic expansion initiatives, which are expected to be essentially completed by the end of the second quarter. Our anticipated sales growth on a year-over-year basis will continue, supported by continued demand, high capacity and synergistic opportunities.

We remain focused on enhancing gross margins due to the economies of scale from the consolidation of operations as well as further expansion of our brake caliper production, pricing initiatives and other product line activities. I will now turn the floor over to David to review the results for the fiscal 2022 first quarter..

1.3% for brake caliper start-up costs and relocation transition expenses; 3.2% due to higher freight costs and expenses related to COVID; 1.7% noncash core premium amortization impacting sales; 0.7% noncash revaluation of cores on customer shelf; and 0.1% customer allowances related to new business.

Let me provide a little more color on the factors impacting gross margin. Brake caliper start-up costs and relocation transition expenses are part of our footprint expansion in Mexico.

As you may recall, we completed the construction of our buildings in Mexico this past fiscal year and have focused on increasing production of brake calipers, including core sorting and related activities to meet the current and future demand.

First quarter start-up and transition expenses were significantly reduced by approximately 50% to $2 million from fiscal '21 levels and will continue to diminish during this first half of the current fiscal year.

We also incurred higher freight and other costs of approximately $4.5 million for the fiscal '22 first quarter due to a shortage of freight and supply chain inefficiencies caused by COVID, as Selwyn noted earlier. With regard to additional COVID-related expenses, we have addressed health and safety initiatives that also impacted gross margin.

Fortunately, these COVID-related expenses decreased. As a point of reference, fiscal first quarter expenses were approximately $318,000 versus $1.84 million for the prior year first quarter. Core premium amortization and revaluation of cores on customer shelves that impacted gross margins are noncash and noneconomic.

For a complete summary of items impacting gross profit please Exhibit 2 in this morning's earnings press release.

In addition to the above items, gross profit was further impacted by growth initiatives in connection with the expansion of our new product lines and inflationary costs related to the global pandemic, especially disruptions with worldwide supply chain and logistics services. This includes higher costs for raw materials and supplies.

I should also mention that we recently experienced offshore wage inflation, which further impacted results. We are focused on mitigating these expenses, including higher freight costs, with price increases that have been implemented and will be realized shortly.

Total operating expenses increased to $17.8 million for the fiscal first quarter from $13 million for the prior year period.

The increase was primarily due to a $2.3 million larger gain for the prior year period of $4.8 million from the foreign exchange impact of lease liabilities and forward contracts compared with a smaller gain of $2.5 million for the current year first quarter.

The remaining $2.5 million increase on a year-over-year basis was primarily due to salary reductions in the prior year in response to the COVID-19 pandemic and increased commissions, margin related and travel expenses. Interest expense was $3.9 million for the fiscal first quarter compared with $4.4 million last year.

The decrease in interest expense was primarily due to lower interest rates and lower net debt. Income tax expense for the first quarter was $947,000 compared with income tax benefit of $1 million for the prior year period.

I should mention that the effective tax rate for the 3 months ended June 30, 2021, was primarily impacted by specific foreign jurisdiction from which we do not expect to recognize the benefit of losses. However, we expect these losses will be utilized against future profits, which will benefit future tax rates.

Net income for the fiscal '22 first quarter was $861,000 or $0.04 per diluted share compared with a net loss of $3 million or $0.16 per share a year ago. Additional details of items impacting net income are in Exhibit 1 in this morning's earnings press release.

Net cash used in operating activities during the fiscal year '22 first quarter was $4.7 million, reflecting working capital requirements to support the company's record sales and required inventory levels to support our customers in the face of supply chain challenges due to COVID as well as anticipated business growth in fiscal '22.

This compares with cash provided by operating activities of $22.4 million for the prior fiscal year first quarter. Net debt was $97.6 million at June 30, 2021, compared with $88.9 million at March 31, 2021. As you know, there are various methods to calculate return on invested capital.

For our purposes, we calculate ROIC by taking operating income and adding back noncash expenses and certain onetime expenses. We believe this metric, considered together with GAAP measures, provides useful information to investors and to management regarding the company's return on invested capital.

In short, we take this metric, which was approximately $88.1 million for the 12 months ended June 30, 2021, divided by the average equity and net debt balance of $398 million, resulting in a 22.1% pretax return on invested capital.

We are continuing to realize the benefits of expanding our Mexican operations and the launch of our new brake categories with expectations of increased returns from both the new and existing product lines as the benefits of our strategic expansion are more fully realized. As I mentioned, at June 30, 2021, our net debt was approximately $97.6 million.

Total cash and availability on the revolving credit facility was approximately $120 million at June 30, 2021, based on a total $238.6 million revolving credit facility and subject to certain limitations. At June 30, 2021, the company had approximately $904 million in total assets.

Current assets were $441 million and current liabilities worth of $336 million. During the fiscal first quarter, the company extended its credit facility with PNC Bank for 5 years through May of 2026, including amendments, which further increased the company's strong liquidity base.

For the reconciliation of items that impact results and non-GAAP financial measures, please refer to Exhibits 1 to 3 in this morning's earnings press release. I will now hand the call for questions, and Selwyn will then provide some closing remarks..

. And your first question comes from the line are Sarkis Sherbetchyan with B. Riley Securities..

Just want to start off with a question here on the orders. 1Q, obviously, very strong.

Just wondering if customers pulled purchases ahead maybe to the detriment of the following quarters? Or do you see the order strength continuing based on kind of the customer demand you're seeing out there?.

I think that the first quarter orders were pulled forward somewhat. Having said that, the second quarter will -- looks like it will continue to be strong.

But definitely, what we're seeing are 2 things, at least in the first quarter is, number one, our brake caliper business has grown dramatically and seasonality for brake calipers is -- generally would be in our fourth and first quarters, a little bit in the second, but mostly in the first, which we haven't really seen as much of in the past.

And then we definitely see some fast ordering from our customers because the demand of the register has been very strong..

Got it.

And in regards to kind of the brake calipers business, I'm not sure if you've provided kind of a number or as far as kind of the annualized sales level that you've accomplished so far? Any updates there?.

So like I speak today, our 10-Q that we'll file later today, we do break out the product mix. So the brakes and related is about 16% of total sales compared to a lower percentage for the previous periods..

Great. And I just wanted to also ask, at what point do you think it's appropriate to provide the annual guide. I think the last call, you guys kind of held off. Just wanted to see if at some point you're kind of looking to provide an annual target or it's kind of too soon..

It's a little -- it's still so uncertain. I mean with the Delta variant out there, and -- I mean, it's just hard to tell. And I mean, even we're as robust as we've been in a long time. I mean I don't know guidance on the upside or the downside. I mean I just think it's just a little too unpredictable right now.

But the only -- the input I would give you is that the first month of the second quarter was off to a strong start. That's as of now..

And your next question comes from the line of Matt Koranda with ROTH Capital..

Wondering, David, if you could just provide a further breakdown of revenue by rotating electrical, wheel hub and essentially your brake products would be helpful..

Yes, absolutely. So for the first quarter, rotating electrical was about 67%, wheel hub 14%, and as I mentioned, brakes and related 16% and the other 3%..

Okay. Helpful. And then just on the brake products, maybe following on from the earlier line of questioning. It does look like, I mean, that's taken a meaningful step up in terms of quarterly run rate. And you did reference, look, it's typically seasonally strong in terms of order flow in Q1.

But any help in terms of the way we should be thinking about that on a quarterly basis for '22, just given the seasonality that you mentioned, but the strength in order flow..

There's two factors. Our market share continues to grow and the volumes are coming to their own on the existing shares. So it's -- I think the fourth quarter should be a very strong quarter as well for brake calipers this year. And overall, the year will be strong.

I think will be stronger, I mean, for calipers, but I think the volumes that you'll see will be in the first 2 quarters and the fourth quarter for calipers. We should see -- as we get to the fourth quarter, we should see successive growth, even above this quarter's volume..

Okay. All right. That's helpful, Selwyn. And then just on the COVID-related expenses within cost of goods. So appreciate the breakout, and you guys mentioned, I think, close to $3 million of increased freight costs related to COVID.

So -- just wanted to get a little bit more detail on sort of how you allocate the higher freight cost to COVID versus just general supply chain tightness that's out there that's being experienced. And then how much headwind should we be factoring in for the next quarter or so? I know visibility is kind of tough.

But just wanted to get a sense for how much more headwind we've got to experience for the next quarter or so..

So the freight -- let me try and start, and then David can take over the detail. The freight headwinds, all the incremental cost, I believe, is either directly or indirectly related to COVID, I mean, where capacity was pulled back dramatically and then demand went up exponentially without capacity catching up.

And so what you saw historically freight costs could have been as low as $2,000 a container coming out of China to today, I mean, I've seen prices as high as $18,000 a container. So you're looking at 900% increase in those costs. I mean is it all COVID or are there other things? I don't know, but we classify that as COVID.

I think it's related to capacity and the capacity issue is definitely related to COVID. And I think it's going to go on for a few quarters at least. But at some point, that normalizes. I mean, the global capitalistic tendencies to provide capacity when capacity is needed. And as that happens, I think freight will come down again.

But we'll -- we're going to have to wait and see. And you have inflation in material costs and inflation in labor, but all of that we expect -- we have to pass through prices. I mean the entire industry is doing that. We have done that and it has not reflected in our numbers yet. But it's coming out.

Our direct out-of-pocket for COVID has come down in terms of just the PPE type stuff. Again, with the Delta variant, we'll have to wait and see how that all unfolds. But right now, we continue -- Mexico continues to operate efficiently. We have had challenges in our Malaysia facility.

The country of Malaysia has had some pretty specific challenges, though they are doing a phenomenal job with catching up vaccinations right now. And so we're starting to reopen in Malaysia. Let's hope that, that continues. Chinese variant also still going on. I mean, with China and the COVID side, too, we'll have to see how that unfolds..

Okay. Helpful. Last one, I guess, you mentioned labor cost pressure kind of starting to impact a little bit more in important countries. Just wondered if you could give a little bit more granularity about where you're seeing the most pressure on labor.

Is it more in the Mexico manufacturing base? And what are some of the elements or levers that you have, tools that you have at your disposal to sort of counteract some of the labor inflation you're seeing?.

Well, again, mostly Mexico, I mean, that's where the majority of our labor force is, have, I think, a 35% increase in the minimum wage, federal minimum wage in Mexico earlier this year. So that contributes to some of the challenges.

Again, that's part of what we use when we computed passing through our price increases, which should start reflecting at the end of this quarter..

. Your next question comes from the line of Brian Nagel with Oppenheimer..

So a bit of a follow-up on some of the -- a couple of the prior questions. But just, Selwyn, you've got very nice start of the fiscal year here with sales and you talked about continued strength into your fiscal second quarter.

So the question I have is and I'm trying to get is just what do you view as underlying sustainability as the economies are pulling -- hopefully pulling away from the COVID crisis.

So maybe what I'm trying to frame the question would be, as you work kind of geographically across the United States, some parts of the country, further from the COVID crisis and others, are you seeing any regional differences in demand trends for your products?.

Well, I think the Northeast is probably slightly ahead of everywhere else. But I mean, there's demand everywhere. Used car lots are empty. And those cars are on the road. And then again, a lot of those cars are older, and they need a lot of maintenance.

I mean we see, while many people talk about stimulus checks certainly are not being spent on a nondiscretionary alternate or a start-up, but what's happening is you've got all these old cars that were certainly part of the registration park -- car park but they were sitting in parking lots. And now these cars are being used.

And so I think you -- certainly on nondiscretionary items like ours, it has spiked. Now comparatives are going to be tougher as we go through the year because last year, we had stimulus and we had really strong quarters. But having said that, I think that this is going to be a real strong growth year for us.

I think the first 6 months is going to be up over the last year and the back 6 months is going to be strong. So lots of activity in the back 6 months and a lot of new opportunities opening up there as well. And we're excited about our electric vehicle opportunities. So I think it's a sustainable.

Again, I don't think 59% is the -- 53% is what you should be assuming for growth, but we're going to have double-digit growth..

Got it. That's helpful. Then my second question is also a follow-up, just with respect to the supply disruptions, particularly those tied to shipping or containers. We're hearing this more and more. I mean every -- pretty much every company I talk to now is to some extent talking about. You mentioned in your prepared comments.

But I guess as we look at the financials, maybe it's more of a question for David, but if you look at the financials here in fiscal Q1, is there a way to really size where we'd see these impacts of shipping disruptions? And then a second follow-up to that would be how should we think about these extra costs as we push into Q2 and potentially beyond?.

So the supply chain that we've identified, items that impacted the results, as Selwyn mentioned, there is freight. We've had additional inefficiencies in the supply chain that we mentioned. We also have the decreasing specific PPE type costs.

So we're going to continue to monitor them very carefully, and we're working with our supply chain, and they have excellent relationships with our suppliers around the globe. But there is an element of -- we're doing our very best, but there are certain factors that we can't control. But we're working very closely to monitor..

Maybe, David, you can give the dollars you mentioned earlier in your prepared remarks on what those were..

Yes. So for the impact on gross profit was about $4.8 million of increased expenses related to COVID, and the majority of that is going to be the freight cost..

Yes. Freight is a challenge right now..

And I guess just that $4.8 million, David that.

Is there a thought as to where that would be in Q2 -- I mean, you recognize it's not as apples-to-apples or quarter-to-quarter, but is there a thought to where that $4.8 million would be in Q2?.

It probably will be similar. I mean, if the volumes are similar. So I'm expecting it to be similar. Again, by the end of Q2, we should have mitigated some of that because our price increases will start reflecting..

And your last question comes from the line of Scott Stember with CL King..

I'm just looking at the gross margin from an adjusted basis after the adjustments that you -- or the impact items that you mentioned in the release and you did , it's up versus last year, but last year's numbers, obviously, there was significant inefficiencies and shutdown from COVID.

But if I look at it versus 2 years ago, a little over for the first quarter over 24%.

What's the delta there? Is it things like raw materials and other related supply chain issues and labor? Is that really the difference? I'm just trying to get a sense of also -- I know you guys are not guiding, but if you could just give a framework of where a peak run rate of margins -- gross margin could be for the year..

Yes. So I mean, we don't adjust for labor. So labor is in that number for sure. And we don't adjust for what's recurring. I mean, we are trying to identify the unusual COVID. .

In addition, I mentioned the raw material, the supplies, the inflationary costs, those are impacting the margins. So as we been mentioning, the price increases are taking effect this quarter, to mitigate off that -- some of those costs. So that's excluding the further price increases..

Yes, yes. I just wanted to see if there was anything else structural in there.

And it sounds as if when the price increases go through in the next quarter or so, that should certainly cover that, right?.

Yes..

Yes. And I think the other thing, Scott, to mention is, over time, you got to realize the brake caliper facility is very new. And so -- and a lot of the expanded brake booster production is new in Mexico. And we have a lot of new production in wheel hubs as well. These factories, over time, get far more efficient as they mature.

So it doesn't go from A to Z. It goes slowly through the Alphabet in terms of its progress. But we should see more efficiencies as we get more mature in our production facilities..

Yes. And to the question about the margins, I guess, I mean you kind of said that sales, double digits, at least it looks like for the year or just in general.

But what about the margin? Where could we be -- is this just a range where you think we can get back to on gross margins?.

With the price increases, we should be back in the -- at least the mid-20s. But again, we're not giving guidance specifically, just giving you a flavor for what the price increase would be for them..

Got it. No, that's good. And just lastly, it sounds like you said that there was some, I guess, seasonally large orders that were -- you probably didn't expect to happen this quarter and it did. And you also talked about stimulus checks. And I was just trying to get a little more flavor on that.

I would think that with the do-it-for-me side starting to really perk up here, that wouldn't be as impacted by stimulus checks.

Could you just talk about that?.

Yes, I agree with you. And I use those word, that stimulus, because that's what the industry has been talking about that. I mean when you talk about nondiscretionary items, I'm not sure the stimulus per se does it, but it's sort of the environment of people having more capital and doing more things.

I think the fundamental driver for us is number of used cars that are being utilized as opposed to being parked right now, and hot weather. I mean both of those are really driving demand, and we continue to see strong demand. Again, there's some seasonality and there's some change in order patterns. But overall, it continues to be very, very strong..

Yes.

And just related to the hot weather, I know rotating electric definitely benefits, which -- is it starters or alternators that benefit from the extreme heat?.

Both. Both. I mean, generally starters benefit more from cold weather, but both when that engine compartment gets hot and you've got electrical items and then you get the benefit. I mean, alternators a little more from the heat and starters a little less from the heat and it switches when it comes to the cold weather..

And you have another question from the line of Matt Koranda with ROTH Capital..

Just wanted to touch on the price increase, and I may have missed it earlier, but could you just touch on the timing of the price increases that were put through. And then if you could help us understand it by maybe characterizing percent of your SKUs that saw where you took pricing and then rate increases on average, that would be very helpful..

Yes, I can't give you as much granularity as I'm sure you would love, but just because for competitive purposes, and we can't talk specifically about price increases. But our intent is clearly to mitigate freight and labor costs that I talked about.

We should see that beginning -- it'll reflect a little bit in this quarter, in the second quarter and certainly fully in the third quarter..

You have no further questions at this time. I'll now turn it back to management for any closing remarks..

Great. I'd like to take a few moments to discuss the outlook for our business. While there are very -- many variables in the world that we cannot control, we do control our own strategy. And I'm excited to outline what our new capacity allows us to do and where we are taking the company today and in the future.

We are extremely focused on our core hard parts aftermarket business and expect to continue to grow this business organically for each product line. In addition, we are launching more product lines that we are optimistic about, which will even further accelerate our growth.

Also, as our footprint of the future, which is now a footprint of today, matures, we will see increases in productivity, which will result in reduced costs and better margins.

While there are many variables in costs today, we expect this to stabilize and through a combination of appropriate pricing and enhanced efficiencies that I mentioned, our margins will improve. This in conjunction with our accelerated revenue growth bodes well for increased earnings and shareholder returns.

In addition to our hard parts business, our diagnostics business in both internal combustion engines and electrical vehicles is picking up momentum, and we expect positive EBITDA from both this year.

Along with this diagnostic business, we are focused on adding contract testing at year-end, which should further enhance our revenue and our contribution margins. It allows us to scale revenues without linear scaling of capital expenditures and enables our customer base to get quicker and more efficient results and feedback with less capital outlay.

Our Vision Group is also working diligently on numerous technologies that will place us in the EV power system, either a software or licensed IP. While the world of electrification is fast developing, we feel that we have a strong opportunity to be a significant player in the space.

These strategies, when implemented, will serve to grow shareholder value and increase the growth rates in our business. In closing, I want to thank all our team members for their ongoing commitment and customer-centric focus on service during these challenging times. Their health and safety are our top priority.

We remain extremely vigilant to protect our global team from this horrible virus, and we are working diligently to get even more of our employees and their family members vaccinated.

For the most part, our corporate team is continuing to work remotely, that we remain committed to gradually and safely returning our team back to the office as conditions permit. As a result of everyone's contributions, our operations have continued largely uninterrupted, and I'm extremely proud of their work in our company.

In summary, our investments are bearing fruits and we have a meaningful opportunity to enhance shareholder value in a dynamic $130 billion automotive aftermarket industry and the emerging electric vehicle industry.

We are product of our more than 50-year history in the aftermarket industry and we're excited about our emerging presence in the electric vehicle space. And all of us are committed to our vision of being the global leader for parts and solutions that move our world today and tomorrow.

We appreciate your continued supported and thank you, again, for joining us for the call. We look forward to speaking with you when we host our fiscal 2022 second quarter conference call in November and at investor conferences, and hopefully, in person in the future. Thank you..

This concludes today's conference call. Thank you for participating and you may now disconnect..
