$ARCW ARC Group Worldwide, Inc. Announces Sale of All Assets and Strategic Business Pivot
Press Release | 12/13/2021
DELAND, FL / ACCESSWIRE / December 13, 2021 / ARC Group Worldwide, Inc. ("ARC" or the "Company") (OTC Markets:ARCW), a leading global provider of advanced manufacturing, today announced that the Board of Directors has proposed to sell all of the Company's current operating businesses and assets (the "Legacy Business Sale"). The Company further announced that it plans to acquire RM2 International S.A. ("RM2"), a Luxembourg Socit Anonyme which has developed a type of composite pallet to replace wooden pallets that includes "smart" Internet of Things or ("IoT") technologies to improve logistics. RM2 is targeting industries such as food and other industries where hygiene is of extreme importance.

RM2 launched the smart pallet revolution by embedding autonomous IoT sensor technology in its logistically-optimized, hygienic BLOCKPal composite pallets. IoT sensor data are transmitted to the cloud via the LTE-M network, making visible the pallet's location and condition both indoors and in transit without requiring any additional hardware or information technology development. RM2 ELIoT®, the RM2 cloud-based supply chain intelligence platform, captures and contextualizes location, temperature, shock, and event data, giving customers end-to-end supply chain visibility and clear, actionable insights in real time. RM2 issues, retrieves, and sanitizes more than 1.5 million of its hygienic IoT pallets annually through a nationwide network of over 30 service facilities in a cost-effective, scalable, and environmentally sustainable pallet pooling system. To date, RM2 has invested more than $60 million into its research and development initiatives.

Global demand for pallets is estimated to be 9.1 billion units by 2024. Part of this demand is being met by suppliers with the Pallet-as-a-Service model, where pallets are leased, pooled, bought back or recycled (as opposed to purchased and owned outright by customers). The potential Pallet-as-a-Service market in the US currently is estimated to represent 224 million units and it is currently served by approximately 104 million pallets, the majority of which are wooden. Non-wooden pallets are increasingly finding favor with end-users. To cite a few examples, a leading poultry processor has disallowed wooden pallets from its suppliers, a large big-box retailer has announced a non-wood initiative and the cost of shipping pallets cross-border has risen as importers are increasingly responsible for ensuring pallets are free of pathogens. Single- or limited-use wooden pallets create environmental issues and are unhygienic and difficult to clean. These factors combine to create increasing demand for robust, reusable, hygienic, ecologically friendly and cost-effective pallets like the RM2 BLOCKPal.

Mr. Alan Quasha, Chairman of ARC, stated, "RM2 is in the process of deploying their innovative and proprietary IoT technologies that have the potential to revolutionize durability, dependability, security and digital communications to create transformative efficiencies across the entire continuum of global logistics. We consequently believe undertaking the Legacy Business Sale and pivoting to acquire RM2 can unlock exceptional value for ARC shareholders."

Mr. R. Ian Molson, Chairman of RM2 said, "We are delighted with the opportunity to partner with ARC in a manner that we believe will accelerate the dynamic growth and expansion of the RM2 business."

The Company plans to effectuate the acquisition of RM2 in a share exchange transaction with the principal shareholders of RM2, pursuant to which the shareholders of ARC immediately prior to the transaction will own, in the aggregate, approximately 25.0% to 30.0% of the combined common stock of the Company after closing the RM2 acquisition, subject to adjustments with respect to treatment of outstanding options and attainment of certain RM2 performance objectives.

The Company has committed to apply approximately $30 million in anticipated net proceeds resulting from the Legacy Business Sale to the business and operations of RM2.

As part of a series of transactions related to the acquisition of RM2 by ARC, a group of existing and new investors to RM2, including PMB Invest Fund I SCSp, Everest Hill Group Inc. and two other prominent investors, are expected to invest in the aggregate approximately $20 million into RM2 to fund the Company's growth.

ARC has established an independent committee of directors to ascertain the fairness of the terms of the Legacy Business Sale and the RM2 acquisition. ARC does not expect to make any dividends, distributions or payments to ARC or RM2 shareholders in connection with the closing of the Legacy Business Sale and RM2 acquisition transactions.

The Legacy Business Sale was initiated pursuant to an assessment of strategic alternatives by the Board, as previously announced by the Company on April 5, 2021. The proposal to consummate the Legacy Business Sale is expected to be presented for the vote of the ARC shareholders on January 18, 2022 at the ARC annual meeting of shareholders. All ARC shareholders of record as of December 20, 2021 will have the right to vote at the annual meeting. The Company plans to distribute the formal notice of the annual meeting and an accompanying proxy statement on or about January 4, 2022. The ARC proxy statement will contain detailed information regarding the proposed Legacy Business Sale. The proxy statement will also contain further disclosures regarding RM2. The gross sale price for the Legacy Business Sale is expected to be $45 million. After giving effect to the repayment of outstanding indebtedness and mandatory redemption of preferred stock, the Company expects to retain approximately $30 million in net proceeds from the Legacy Business Sale transaction.

The Legacy Business Sale price was determined pursuant to an auction undertaken by Imperial Capital, LLC that included solicitations to over 150 prospective bidders. The only bid received by the Company was in the amount of $45 million that was also subject to numerous contingencies (the "Bid"). The Company's majority stockholder, Everest Hill Group Inc., made a matching offer to purchase the Legacy Businesses for the same cash Bid price, with fewer contingencies, thus providing higher likelihood that the transaction will close. The Board of Directors provisionally determined to proceed with the offer from Everest Hill Group Inc.

The closings of the Legacy Business Sale and acquisition of RM2 are each subject to delivery of fairness opinions by independent valuators for each of the transactions as well as the recommendation of the committee of independent directors to proceed with the transactions, among other closing conditions. Subject to the approval by the ARC shareholders at the annual meeting, the Company plans to consummate the Legacy Business Sale and the RM2 acquisition on or about January 31, 2022.

$ARCW ARC Group Worldwide Announces Return to Profitability for the Fiscal First Quarter 2021
Press Release | 01/25/2021
DELAND, FL / ACCESSWIRE / January 25, 2021 / ARC Group Worldwide, Inc. (OTC PINK:ARCW) ("ARC" or the "Company"), a leading global provider of advanced manufacturing, today reports its results for the first fiscal quarter ending September 27, 2020. ARC reports net income for the three months and continued improvement compared to the prior period last year.

Highlights for the first quarter of fiscal year 2021 compared to the first quarter fiscal year 2020 for Continuing Operations:

Net sales were $11.4 million, increasing by 7.7%;
Gross profit was $2.1 million, increasing by 73.9%;
Operating expenses were $1.7 million, decreasing by 23.9%;
Income from continuing operations was $0.1 million, as compared to an operating loss of $1.8 million in the prior period last year.
Interest and financing costs were $0.3 million, decreasing by 66.3%;
EBITDA was $1.6 million, increasing by 97.4%;
Adjusted EBITDA for the three months ended September 27, 2020 was also $1.6 million. Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure, which is reconciled to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure and more fully defined in the enclosed table.
Prior year financials for the fiscal first quarter include the results of ARC Metal Stamping, LLC ("AMS"), which was divested in December 2019 and are presented as discontinued operations.

Quarterly Financial Summary

The following analysis is performed over Sales, Gross Profit, and EBITDA from Continuing Operations for the comparative periods identified unless otherwise noted.

Fiscal first-quarter net sales were $11.4 million, compared to $10.6 million in our fiscal first quarter of 2020. The increase in revenue was primarily driven by strength in the defense and firearms sector but partially offset by reductions in automotive, aerospace, and medical industries associated with COVID-19.

Fiscal first-quarter gross profit was $2.1 million, compared to $1.2 million in our fiscal first quarter of 2020. Gross profit increases were primarily driven by increases in operational productivity and proactive cost reduction measures implemented to balance costs with specific industry performance. These cost balancing measures allowed improvements despite sales mix challenges in historically higher-margin industries like aerospace and medical.

EBITDA was $1.6 million for the fiscal first quarter, compared to $0.8 million in our fiscal first quarter of 2020. The increase was due to the upturn in overall sales and the aforementioned cost control initiatives impacting both Cost of Sales and SG&A expense.

Mr. Jed Rust, CEO of ARC Group Worldwide, said, "I am pleased to report that ARC had net income for the first quarter of 2021. The efforts and focus around fiscal responsibility, debt reductions, and operational excellence have allowed us to return to profitability. We are optimistic toward our next quarter as we have seen growth in our customer backlog, and the improvement activities are expected to continue to pay dividends."

Financial Restructuring

ARC completed the last of several transactions to reduce and restructure debt in September 2020, subsequent to the first quarter of fiscal year 2021.

In December 2019, the Company simultaneously consummated (i) the sale-leaseback of the ARC Colorado real estate property (the "Sale-Leaseback") and (ii) the sale of the ARC Stamping division (the "Stamping Division"). The proceeds from the Sale-Leaseback and Stamping Division transactions, together with an additional cash infusion from Quadrant Management Inc. ("QMI"), were utilized to pay off all of the Company's indebtedness to Citizens Bank NA in the net amount of $22.2 million and terminated the Company's Senior ABL Credit Facility.

In July 2020, the Company used a combination of cash on hand and additional cash infusion by QMI to pay down $7 million of Subordinated Debt with The Firmament Group ("Firmament").

In September 2020, the Company entered into a new Senior ABL Credit Facility with Fifth Third Bank. The cash at closing was used to pay down an additional $7 million of Subordinated Debt balance with Firmament. The Company simultaneously entered into Securities Exchange and Purchase Agreements with Firmament and QMI to convert their remaining respective Subordinated Debt balances to Preferred Equity. The Company issued 3,362,611 shares of Series A-1 Preferred Shares in exchange for $3,362,611 in remaining unpaid principal with Firmament. The Company issued 14,562,444 shares of Series A-2 Preferred Shares in exchange for $14,562,444 in remaining unpaid principal and interest with QMI.

GAAP to Non-GAAP Reconciliation

The Company uses Adjusted EBITDA, a Non-GAAP financial measure as defined by the SEC, as a supplemental profitability measure because management finds it useful to understand and evaluate results, excluding the impact of non-cash depreciation and amortization charges, stock-based compensation expenses, and nonrecurring expenses and outlays, prior to consideration of the impact of other potential sources and uses of cash, such as working capital items. This calculation may differ in method of calculation from similarly titled measures used by other companies and may be different than the EBITDA calculation used by our lenders for purposes of determining compliance with financial covenants. This Non-GAAP measure may have limitations when understanding performance as it excludes the financial impact of transactions such as interest expense necessary to conduct the Company's business and therefore is not intended to be an alternative to financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. The Company has not quantitatively reconciled its forward-looking Adjusted EBITDA target to the most directly comparable GAAP measure because such items such as amortization of stock-based compensation and interest expense, which are specific items that impact these measures, have not yet occurred, are out of the Company's control, or cannot be predicted. For example, quantification of stock-based compensation is not possible as it requires inputs such as future grants and stock prices, which are not currently ascertainable.

Adjusted EBITDA from Continuing Operations, Adjusted Earnings, and Adjusted Earnings Per Share are non-GAAP financial measures. Adjusted EBITDA Margin from Continuing Operations is calculated by dividing EBITDA from Continuing Operations by sales.

The reconciliation to GAAP is as follows (dollars in thousands):

Thanks!

DDD

Thanks. I've not followed ARC for a while and did not know they sold the 3d printing division. I'm thinking 3d printing may take off again. I'll look elsewhere.

Peter Navarro, Trump's Director of the Office of Trade and Manufacturing has been a long time proponent of bringing back manufacturing from China. I heard him recently praise 3D printing as another avenue to return manufacturing here.

The geniuses at ARC sold that division, smh

.....

Anyone know why the sudden surge?

Hello , anyone home?

ROTFL! Considering her post was 6 months ago, I'd agree. Of course, at the time it was quite topical. You should try keeping up.

What is happening to ARCW?

This sure ain't the reason.....

Highlights for the third quarter of fiscal year 2019 compared to the third quarter fiscal year 2018 for Continuing Operations:
Sales of $19.9 million, a decrease of 5.7%;
Gross Deficit of $(0.2) million, a decrease of 113.7%;
EBITDA of $(0.4) million, a decrease of 142.6%

One group owns 52% of the company. Maybe they're quietly dumping shares instead.

Very good question. Seems to me someone is trying to quietly accumulate stock here, although I can't figure a reason why.
I'm reading the newswire, but don't understand enough about the company to know why this affects them....

What is going on with volume?

Northern Right Capital Management, L.P. has filed a new 13G, reporting 5.0% ownership in $ARCW - https://fintel.io/so/us/arcw

And right back where it should be...

Thanks for the heads up. Definitely not yet. I have a little ground to make up before break even. I worked for this company for awhile and have been following the chart after buying a small amount. Interested mainly in patterns and learning candles now! I'm thinking we are in range for a handle at high 5-6 range but still learning everyday! Thanks for your input! :)

Major accumulation going on, look at the MACD, once we were through $4.50, then $5.00, it's been pedal to the metal. Lets see if we can break and hold $6 tomorrow, then churn a while for the next leg.

Resistance at $5.70. I wouldn't be jumping the gun here.

Huge jump today! I thought a little was coming from cup and handle formation last week or so...well last few months in the making, If it keeps going may be a huge breakout coming!?? Will take some time...what doss everyone think?

ARCW maybe because of the Form 4's for the CEO and CFO

Interesting late day volume here...trying to figure out why?

In wish all the ARCW head honchos would go to the theaters and watch the "Money Monster". It's a very very good movie.

Going to wait for this to consolidate a bit then add to my position and watch it for the rest of the year and see if it can develop into something I want to hold long term. Resistance noted and will be watching for it.

It's not a short term resistance.

Didn't quite get a chance to test that resistance today better luck tomorrow. Nice volume though!

Big resistance at $3.68

Well if short term was a week whats your long term call. Do tell cant wait afraid I might miss it. Smiles Radiantly!

First post for that? Tell us why we should believe you.

Way Undervalued. Definitely one of the best plays out there.

I see some short term upside. Around $2.59. Just my opinion of course.

Ah ok gotcha. Yeah I've been looking at this company for couple of months now. They are improving their balance sheet, sales getting better, and expanding into other regions. Time will tell I guess. But this stock is worth more than it currently trading imo

No pump just a small open interest but I will keep my eyes open for one if that's what your expecting though Thanks.

Board was way to quiet I just opened a small starter position here and was looking to see if anyone had any thoughts on the future of ARC. Looked like a well rounded manufacturer with their foot in the door in AM. Hope to see them pull their financials together going forward, would like to continue to build in here as part of my 3D portfolio.

Are you here to start the pump?

What do you mean?
