Forterra Announces Second Quarter 2018 Results
Second Quarter Highlights
| |
• | Higher Income from operations, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA1 in the Drainage segment due to higher selling prices and mitigation of inflationary cost pressures |
| |
• | Lower Corporate costs as a result of reduced consulting spend and continued cost savings initiatives |
| |
• | Net income of $7.0 million and Adjusted EBITDA of $57.6 million |
Irving, TX - GLOBE NEWSWIRE - August 8, 2018 - Forterra, Inc. (“Forterra” or “the Company”) (NASDAQ: FRTA), a leading manufacturer of water and drainage infrastructure pipe and products in the United States and Eastern Canada, today announced results for the quarter ended June 30, 2018.
CEO Commentary
Forterra CEO Jeff Bradley commented, “I am pleased with the progress we made in the Drainage segment in the first half of 2018. We successfully raised our selling prices, and our procurement initiative enabled us to keep our year over year cost increases below market levels. With strong end-market demand fundamentals and a solid backlog, we expect to continue to deliver year over year improvement in our margins in Drainage."
Bradley continued, “Our Water segment has proven to be more challenging than we previously expected in the face of continued higher average scrap costs on both a sequential quarter and year over year basis that have not yet been offset by higher average selling prices. In response, we are taking price and cost actions to better capitalize on strong market demand. Our pricing initiatives are gaining momentum and we are seeing the benefit in our bookings and in our backlog. We are implementing an initiative focused

on improving margins through a number of commercial and operational enhancements, including our recently announced senior leadership organizational realignment. Market demand for ductile iron pipe in the first half of 2018 was well above levels seen in 2017, and the outlook for the next twelve months appears strong, as supported by our backlog and discussions with our customers. We are committed to increasing our margins in Water, and I believe that we are taking the right steps.”
Second Quarter 2018 Consolidated Results
Second quarter 2018 net sales of $416.1 million decreased from $436.7 million in the prior year quarter. The decline is due to the impact of previously disclosed asset sales and divestitures. Net sales excluding the impact of asset sales and divestitures of $46.8 million grew by approximately 7%. Net income for the quarter was $7.0 million, or net income of $0.11 per share, compared to a net loss of $11.2 million, or a loss of $0.18 per share, in the prior year quarter. Adjusted EBITDA for the second quarter was $57.6 million, compared to $46.5 million in the prior year quarter. The increase in net income and Adjusted EBITDA is due to the benefit of improved results in Drainage and lower costs at Corporate, partially offset by lower results in Water.
Drainage Pipe & Products (“Drainage”) - Second Quarter 2018 Results
Drainage net sales increased to $222.9 million, compared to $221.5 million in the prior year quarter. Net sales excluding the impact of asset sales of $12.6 million grew by approximately 7% due to higher shipments and higher average selling prices for pipe and precast products as well as growth in sales in both structural products and Bio Clean stormwater management systems. The organic sales growth in pipe and precast reflects the benefit of higher average selling prices and strong demand across the Forterra footprint.
Drainage gross profit and gross profit margin were $49.8 million and 22.4%, respectively, compared to $43.1 million and 19.5%, respectively, in the prior year quarter. The higher gross profit and gross profit margin reflects the benefit of higher average selling prices and the mitigation of labor, freight and raw materials cost inflation resulting from the 2017 procurement and operating expense initiatives. Drainage
EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA were $48.4 million and $46.4 million, respectively, compared to $40.1 million and $40.5 million, respectively, in the prior year quarter due to higher gross profit.
Water Pipe & Products (“Water”) - Second Quarter 2018 Results
Water net sales decreased to $193.2 million, compared to $215.2 million in the prior year quarter. Excluding the impact of the divestiture of the U.S. concrete and steel pressure pipe business of $34.2 million, net sales increased by 7%, due primarily to higher shipments. The increase in shipments is due primarily to strong demand fundamentals.
Water gross profit and gross profit margin in the second quarter were $25.6 million and 13.3%, respectively, compared to $33.3 million and 15.5%, respectively, in the prior year quarter. Second quarter 2018 Water EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA of $24.2 million and $24.3 million, respectively, compared to $17.9 million and $29.6 million, respectively, in the prior year quarter. The decline in gross profit, gross profit margin and Adjusted EBITDA was due primarily to higher scrap costs, in addition to higher labor and freight costs, that were not fully offset by higher average selling prices.
Corporate and Other (“Corporate”) - Second Quarter 2018 Results
Corporate EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA losses of $14.6 million and $13.0 million, respectively, in the second quarter of 2018 compared to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA losses of $27.2 million and $23.6 million, respectively, in the prior year quarter. The year over year improvement is due primarily to lower external consulting fees and the continued benefit of cost savings initiatives.
Balance Sheet and Liquidity
On June 30, 2018, the Company had cash of $30.2 million, outstanding debt on its senior term loan of $1.2 billion and no outstanding balance on the Company's $300.0 million asset based revolving credit facility. The decline in cash, compared to the first quarter of 2018, was consistent with expectations relative to the full-year 2018 key cash out-flow items guidance range previously provided by the Company.
Organizational Realignment of Water Pipe & Products
In July 2018, Forterra announced an organizational realignment of its senior leadership team in its Water segment to accelerate the execution of the Company's commercial and operational initiatives focused on driving higher margins.
Amendment and Restatement of Existing Sale-Leaseback Arrangement
As previously announced in June 2018, Forterra amended and restated its existing sale-leaseback arrangement (the "SLB"). The transaction removed 24 U.S. Drainage facilities and U.S. and Canadian concrete pressure pipe facilities from the SLB in exchange for Forterra's contribution of two ductile iron pipe facilities in Bessemer, Alabama to the SLB.
Certain modifications to the SLB, including an increase in the lease term, resulted in a change in accounting treatment for a portion of the SLB from an operating lease to a finance lease effective with the completion of the transaction in early June 2018. Capital lease obligations increased to $150.2 million at June 30, 2018, compared to $4.7 million as of March 31, 2018, as a result of the change in accounting treatment for a portion of the SLB.
In the June 2018 press release announcing the SLB amendment, Forterra estimated an annual reduction in SLB operating expenses of approximately $19 million, as compared to actual SLB operating expenses incurred in 2017. After further review, the annual reduction is expected to be approximately $17 million. SLB operating expenses in the second quarter were $1.4 million lower than the same quarter last year including $1.1 million in the Drainage segment and $0.3 million in the Water segment.
Financial Outlook
For the third quarter of 2018, the Company expects that net income will range from $5 million to $11 million and Adjusted EBITDA will range from $60 million to $68 million. The third quarter guidance range incorporates the following key assumptions:
| |
• | Continued gradual year over year improvement in Drainage, including expected net sales growth on the benefit of higher shipments and higher average selling prices mitigating the impact of continued cost inflation |
| |
• | Lower expected EBITDA, EBITDA margin, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin in Water, as compared to the same quarter last year, due primarily to higher scrap costs, as well as higher labor and freight costs, not yet fully offset by higher average selling prices |
| |
• | Corporate costs of $15 to $16 million, consistent with previously provided expectations. As compared to the average quarterly Corporate costs of approximately $14 million in the first half of 2018, the Q3 2018 Corporate cost reflects the timing of certain cost accruals and the completion of a transition service agreement that provided an income offset to Corporate expenses in the first half of 2018. |

Additional Statistics (unaudited)
Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measures
In addition to our results calculated under generally accepted accounting principles in the United States ("GAAP"), in this earnings release we also present adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin. Adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin are non-GAAP measures and have been presented in this earnings release as supplemental measures of financial performance that are not required by, or presented in accordance with GAAP. We calculate Adjusted EBITDA as net (loss), interest expense, depreciation and amortization, income tax benefit and before (gains)/losses on the sale of property, plant and equipment, impairment and exit charges and certain other non-recurring income and expenses, such as transaction costs, inventory step-up impacting margin and non-cash compensation expense. Adjusted EBITDA margin represents Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of net sales.
Adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin are presented in this earnings release because they are important metrics used by management as one of the means by which it assesses our financial performance. Adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin are also frequently used by analysts, investors and other interested parties to evaluate companies in our industry. We use Adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin as supplements to GAAP measures of performance to evaluate the effectiveness of our business strategies, to make budgeting decisions, to allocate resources and to compare our performance relative to our peers. Adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin are also important measures for assessing our operating results and evaluating each operating segment’s performance on a consistent basis, by excluding the impacts of depreciation, amortization, income tax expense, interest expense and other items not indicative of ongoing operating performance. Additionally, these measures, when used in conjunction with related GAAP financial measures, provide investors with additional financial analytical framework which management uses, in addition to historical operating results, as the basis for financial, operational and planning decisions and present measurements that third parties have indicated are useful in assessing the Company and its results of operations.
Adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin have certain limitations. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to consolidated net income (loss), and in the case of our segment results, Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered an alternative to EBITDA, which the chief operating decision maker reviews for purposes of evaluating segment profit, or in the case of any of the non-GAAP measures, as a substitute for any other measure of financial performance calculated in accordance with GAAP. Similarly, adjusted EBITDA margin should not be considered as an alternative to gross margin or any other margin calculated in accordance with GAAP. These measures also should not be construed as an inference that our future results will be unaffected by unusual or nonrecurring items for which these non-GAAP
measures make adjustments. Additionally, adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin are not intended to be liquidity measures because of certain limitations such as: (i) they do not reflect our cash outlays for capital expenditures or future contractual commitments; (ii) they do not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, working capital; (iii) they do not reflect interest expense, or the cash requirements necessary to service interest, or principal payments, on indebtedness; (iv) they do not reflect income tax expense or the cash necessary to pay income taxes; and (v) although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized will often have to be replaced in the future, and these non-GAAP measures do not reflect cash requirements for such replacements.
Other companies, including other companies in our industry, may not use such measures or may calculate one or more of the measures differently than as presented in this earnings release, limiting their usefulness as a comparative measure. In evaluating adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin, you should be aware that in the future we will incur expenses that are the same as or similar to some of the adjustments made in the calculations below and the presentation of adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin should not be construed to mean that our future results will be unaffected by such adjustments. Management compensates for these limitations by using adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin as supplemental financial metrics and in conjunction with results prepared in accordance with GAAP.
