Item 2.02 Results of Operations and Financial Condition

 

On November 3, 2014, the Registrant issued a press release announcing results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2014 (the “Press Release”). A copy of the Press Release is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 and incorporated herein by reference.

 

The Press Release contains the non-GAAP measures: (i) net loss from continuing operations before non-cash items and related loss earnings per diluted share, and adjusted net loss from continuing operations before non-cash items and related earnings per diluted share, (ii) earnings before interest, taxes, other income, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”), and adjusted EBITDA, and (iii) adjusted gross profit and gross margin. The Company also believes that presentation of certain non-GAAP measures, i.e.: (i) net loss from continuing operations before non-cash items and related loss earnings per diluted share, and adjusted net loss from continuing operations before non-cash items and related earnings per diluted share, (ii) EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA, and (iii) adjusted gross profit and gross margin, provide useful information for the understanding of its ongoing operations and enables investors to focus on period-over-period operating performance, and thereby enhances the user’s overall understanding of the Registrant’s current financial performance relative to past performance and provides, to the nearest GAAP measures, a better baseline for modeling future earnings expectations. The non-GAAP measures are reconciled to comparable GAAP financial measures in the financial tables within the Press Release. The Registrant cautions that non-GAAP measures should be considered in addition to, but not as a substitute for, the Registrant’s reported GAAP results. Additionally, the Registrant notes that there can be no assurance that the above referenced non-GAAP financial measures are comparable to similarly titled financial measures used by other publicly traded companies.

Black Diamond Reports Third Quarter 2014 Results

 

- Q3 2014 Sales Increase 24% to $54.9 Million; Gross Margin up 290 Basis Points to 41.4% -

 

SALT LAKE CITY, Utah – November 3, 2014 – Black Diamond, Inc. (NASDAQ: BDE) (the “Company” or “Black Diamond”), a global leader of innovative active outdoor performance equipment and apparel, reported financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2014.

 

Third Quarter 2014 Financial Highlights vs. Same Year-Ago Quarter

 

·Sales up 24% to $54.9 million

 

·Gross margin increased 290 basis points to 41.4% versus the adjusted prior year quarter

 

·Adjusted net income from continuing operations before non-cash items increased to $4.0 million or $0.12 per diluted share, compared to $1.1 million or $0.03 per diluted share in the prior year quarter

 

Third Quarter 2014 Financial Results

 

Sales in the third quarter of 2014 increased 24% to $54.9 million compared to $44.2 million in the same year-ago quarter. The increase was across all brands and geographies, benefiting from an increased fulfillment of preseason fall bookings. The third quarter was also highlighted by the continued delivery of POC’s road cycling collection and the launch of Black Diamond Apparel women’s collection.

 

Gross margin in the third quarter of 2014 was 41.4% compared to 35.0% in the year-ago quarter. Gross margin in the year-ago quarter included a $1.5 million charge for a PIEPS product recall. Excluding this amount, adjusted gross margin in the year-ago quarter was 38.5%. The 290 basis point increase was primarily due to both a favorable mix of higher margin products and higher margin channel mix.

 

Selling, general and administrative expenses in the third quarter of 2014 increased 6% to $20.4 million compared to $19.3 million in the year-ago quarter, driven by investments in strategic initiatives such as Black Diamond Apparel, the transition of certain POC distributors into the Company’s in-house operations, and the launch of POC’s new road cycling collection.

 

Net loss from continuing operations in the third quarter of 2014 was $0.4 million or $(0.01) per diluted share, compared to a net loss from continuing operations of $3.6 million or $(0.11) per diluted share in the year-ago quarter.

 

Net loss from continuing operations in the third quarter of 2014 included $2.3 million of non-cash items and $2.2 million in restructuring costs, compared to $4.5 million of non-cash items and $0.2 million in merger and integration costs in the year-ago quarter. $2.0 million of the restructuring charges are non-cash charges. Adjusted net income from continuing operations, which excludes these non-cash items, increased to $4.0 million or $0.12 per diluted share in the third quarter of 2014, compared to $1.1 million or $0.03 per diluted share in the third quarter of 2013.

At September 30, 2014, cash totaled $42.8 million compared to $4.5 million at December 31, 2013. Total debt was $25.6 million at September 30, 2014, which includes $18.1 million of 5% subordinated notes due in 2017 and $7.3 million in a foreign seasonal working capital credit facility for POC, compared to $38.0 million at December 31, 2013. The decrease in debt was due to the pay down of outstanding amounts under the Company’s $30.0 million line of credit and the full pay off of its $9.0 million term note.

 

On July 23, 2014, the Company completed the asset sale of its Gregory Mountain Products brand for $84.1 million to Samsonite LLC. The Company recognized a pre-tax gain on the sale of Gregory Mountain Products of $39.5 million, which is presented in discontinued operations along with the associated taxes and operational activities of Gregory Mountain Products prior to the sale. The Company expects to utilize approximately $31.4 million of its net operating loss carryforwards in the sale of Gregory Mountain Products, leaving a balance of approximately $179.0 million for future utilization.

 

Management Commentary

 

“Consolidated third quarter sales increased 24%, driven by our POC and Black Diamond brands, as well as strong fulfillment rates of both preseason fall bookings and ASAP or restocking orders,” said Peter Metcalf, CEO of Black Diamond. “This efficiency and process improvement within our supply chain, along with a higher margin product mix, also drove a positive increase in consolidated gross margin to 41.4%.

 

“Consolidated third quarter results also reflect the continued implementation of the Company’s strategic pivot, the impact of the sale of Gregory, and longer term investments in POC, PIEPS and Black Diamond Apparel.”

 

2014 Outlook

 

Black Diamond reiterates its outlook for the second half and full year of 2014. Sales in the second half of 2014 are expected to range between $113 million and $118 million, increasing 15% to 20% compared to the same period in 2013. The Company expects gross margin in the second half to range between 39.5% and 40.5%, which would represent an increase of 160 to 260 basis points from the second half of 2013.

 

Sales for the full year are expected to range between $192 million and $197 million, which would represent an increase of 14% to 17% from 2013. The Company expects gross margin for the year to range between 38.5% and 39.0%, which would represent an increase of 130 to 180 basis points.

 

Net Operating Loss (NOL)

 

The Company estimates that it has available NOL carryforwards for U.S. federal income tax purposes of approximately $179 million. The Company’s common stock is subject to a rights agreement dated February 7, 2008 that is intended to limit the number of 5% or more owners and therefore reduce the risk of a possible change of ownership under Section 382 of the Code. Any such change of ownership under these rules would limit or eliminate the ability of the Company to use its existing NOLs for federal income tax purposes. However, there is no guaranty that the rights agreement will achieve the objective of preserving the value of the NOLs.

The Company reports its financial results in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). This press release contains the non-GAAP measures: (i) net income (loss) from continuing operations before non-cash items and related income (loss) per diluted share, and adjusted net income (loss) from continuing operations before non-cash items and related income (loss) per diluted share, (ii) earnings before interest, taxes, other income, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”), and adjusted EBITDA, and (iii) adjusted gross profit and gross margin. The Company also believes that the presentation of certain non-GAAP measures, i.e.: (i) net income (loss) from continuing operations before non-cash items and related income (loss) per diluted share, and adjusted net income (loss) from continuing operations before non-cash items and related income (loss) per diluted share, (ii) EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA, and (iii) adjusted gross profit and gross margin, provide useful information for the understanding of its ongoing operations and enables investors to focus on period-over-period operating performance, and thereby enhances the user's overall understanding of the Company's current financial performance relative to past performance and provides, along with the nearest GAAP measures, a baseline for modeling future earnings expectations. Non-GAAP measures are reconciled to comparable GAAP financial measures in the financial tables within this press release. The Company cautions that non-GAAP measures should be considered in addition to, but not as a substitute for, the Company's reported GAAP results. Additionally, the Company notes that there can be no assurance that the above referenced non-GAAP financial measures are comparable to similarly titled financial measures used by other publicly traded companies.
