The J. M. Smucker Company Announces Fiscal 2016 Fourth Quarter Results and Fiscal 2017 Outlook
ORRVILLE, Ohio, June 9, 2016 -- The J. M. Smucker Company (NYSE: SJM) today announced results for the fourth quarter ended April 30, 2016, of its 2016 fiscal year. All comparisons are to the fourth quarter of the prior fiscal year, unless otherwise noted.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
· | Net sales increased 25 percent in the fourth quarter, reflecting the incremental contribution from Big Heart Pet Brands (“Big Heart”), acquired during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2015, and growth within the U.S. Retail Coffee segment. Net sales adjusted for noncomparable items increased 5 percent. |
· | Net income per diluted share increased to $1.61 in the fourth quarter, including a noncash deferred tax benefit of $50.5 million, or $0.42 per share. This compares to a net loss per diluted share of $0.82 in the prior year, which was impacted by financing activities and purchase accounting adjustments related to the Big Heart acquisition. For the full year, net income per diluted share was $5.76. |
· | Non-GAAP income per diluted share was $1.86 in the fourth quarter, compared to a non-GAAP loss per diluted share of $0.41 in the prior year. For the full year, non-GAAP income per diluted share was $6.57. Both current year measures include the $0.42 per share deferred tax benefit. The full-year measure also includes the $0.15 per share gain on the U.S. canned milk divestiture that occurred in the third quarter. |
· | Cash provided by operating activities was $335.5 million in the fourth quarter, compared to $221.6 million in the prior year. |
· | The Company provided its fiscal 2017 net sales and earnings outlook, with net sales expected to decrease 1 percent. Adjusted non-GAAP income per diluted share is expected to range from $7.60 to $7.75. This measure is not comparable to the non-GAAP income per diluted share measure above, as it excludes amortization expense. |
EXECUTIVE LEADERSHIP REMARKS
“We concluded 2016 with a strong fourth quarter, as the Company achieved record sales, earnings, and cash flow for the full fiscal year,” said Richard Smucker, Executive Chairman. “We are proud of the numerous accomplishments this past year. These include the successful introduction of Dunkin’ Donuts® K-Cup® pods and other on-trend products, providing lower pricing on Folgers® coffee, expanding distribution for the Natural Balance® brand, completing a seamless integration of the Big Heart acquisition, and exceeding our synergy and working capital targets. These achievements reflect the Company’s long-term focus, strong brand portfolio, the dedication of our employees, and our ability to execute.”
“As we start the new fiscal year, we look to continue our momentum and are confident in achieving another year of strong earnings growth,” added Mark Smucker, Chief Executive Officer. “We are excited about our plans for fiscal 2017, which include building on our product innovation activities and sponsoring the U.S. Olympic and Paralympic Teams as they prepare for the 2016 Olympic Games in Rio. We have clear visibility to achieving an incremental $100 million in synergies this fiscal year. Behind these and other initiatives, we are well-positioned to continue our history of delivering long-term growth and shareholder value.”

Results for the three months ended April 30, 2016 and 2015, include the operations of Big Heart, since the completion of the acquisition on March 23, 2015. Results for the three months ended April 30, 2015, include the Company’s former U.S. canned milk business which was divested on December 31, 2015. Adjusted non-GAAP income (loss) per diluted share excludes the impact of amortization, a noncash item.
Net sales increased $360.5 million, reflecting a $336.9 million noncomparable contribution from Big Heart. Excluding the impact of noncomparable Big Heart sales, foreign currency exchange, and the U.S. canned milk divestiture, net sales increased $67.2 million, or 5 percent. Favorable volume/mix contributed 5 percentage points to net sales, primarily attributable to Dunkin’ Donuts® K-Cup® pods. Net price realization was slightly lower, reflecting lower net pricing on coffee, which was mostly offset by increases in several other categories.
Gross profit increased $257.4 million, or 60 percent, primarily due to the incremental contribution from Big Heart and the prior year unfavorable impact of a $47.0 million fair value purchase accounting adjustment to acquired Big Heart inventory. Excluding these items, gross profit increased, as the impact of lower net pricing was more than offset by a reduction in commodity costs, primarily attributed to green coffee. Favorable volume/mix also contributed.
Selling, distribution, and administrative expenses increased $63.6 million, or 22 percent, primarily driven by the incremental impact of Big Heart and higher incentive compensation costs. Amortization expense also increased.
Operating income increased $175.6 million, or 249 percent, including the incremental contribution from Big Heart and the impact of the prior year purchase accounting adjustment related to inventory.
On a non-GAAP basis, gross profit increased $221.9 million, or 48 percent, and operating income increased $141.8 million, or 102 percent.
Net interest expense increased $11.0 million, due to the incremental impact of acquisition-related debt issued in the fourth quarter of 2015. Prior year results also included other debt costs of $173.3 million, primarily related to the early redemption of the Company’s senior private placement notes. Income taxes increased $58.7 million due to an increase in income before income taxes, partially offset by the $50.5 million noncash deferred tax benefit related to the integration of Big Heart.
Cash provided by operating activities was $335.5 million, compared to $221.6 million in the prior year. The change in operating cash flow was primarily attributed to an increase in net income, adjusted for noncash items, notably depreciation and amortization.
FISCAL 2017 OUTLOOK
The Company provided its fiscal 2017 guidance as summarized below:
Net sales (year-over-year change) | -1 | % | ||
Adjusted non-GAAP income per common share - assuming dilution | $7.60 - $7.75 | |||
Free cash flow | $1.0 billion | |||
Capital expenditures | $240 million | |||
Effective tax rate | 34.0 | % |
Net sales are expected to decrease 1 percent from fiscal 2016, reflecting the U.S. canned milk divesture. Excluding the impact of the divesture, net sales are expected to increase 1 percent. Adjusted non-GAAP income per diluted share is expected to range from $7.60 to $7.75, based on 116.6 million shares outstanding, reflecting the Company’s repurchase of 3.4 million shares in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2016. Included in earnings guidance is $100 million of incremental synergies in fiscal 2017. Amortization expense of $208 million, or $1.18 per diluted share, is excluded from earnings guidance.
FOURTH QUARTER SEGMENT RESULTS

FY16 Q4 Results | $ | 512.6 | $ | 153.2 | 29.9 | % | ||||||
Change vs prior year | 9 | % | 39 | % | 650 | bps |
Segment net sales increased $44.0 million. Favorable volume/mix contributed 13 percentage points of growth, driven by the Dunkin’ Donuts® brand. The Folgers® brand also contributed to favorable volume/mix, as growth for mainstream roast and ground offerings more than offset declines in Folgers® K-Cup® pods. Favorable volume/mix for the segment was slightly offset by lower net price realization for the Folgers® brand. Segment profit increased $43.3 million reflecting the net benefit of lower commodity costs and pricing and the contribution from Dunkin’ Donuts® K-Cup® pods. These factors were slightly offset by an increase in marketing expense.
U.S. Retail Consumer Foods
Net | Segment | Segment | ||||||||||
Sales | Profit | Profit Margin | ||||||||||
FY16 Q4 Results | $ | 473.7 | $ | 89.0 | 18.8 | % | ||||||
Change vs prior year | (2 | %) | (6 | %) | -80 | bps |
Segment net sales decreased $9.5 million, reflecting the impact of $31.5 million of noncomparable net sales in the prior year related to the divested U.S. canned milk business. Excluding the impact of the divestiture, net sales increased 5 percent. Net price realization was higher, primarily attributable to the Jif® and Pillsbury® brands. Favorable volume/mix contributed 2 percentage points of growth, driven by Jif® peanut butter and Smucker’s® Uncrustables® frozen sandwiches. Segment profit decreased $5.8 million, primarily reflecting the loss of U.S. canned milk profits.
U.S. Retail Pet Foods
Net | Segment | Segment | ||||||||||
Sales | Profit | Profit Margin | ||||||||||
FY16 Q4 Results | $ | 562.9 | $ | 116.6 | 20.7 | % |
Segment net sales of $562.9 million represented an approximate 3 percent increase compared to the fourth quarter of the prior year, including Big Heart’s sales occurring prior to the completion of the acquisition. The net sales increase was primarily driven by growth in the Natural Balance® brand and pet snacks, partially offset by declines in mainstream dog food. Segment profit margin of 20.7 percent represented a sequential 370 basis point increase compared to the third quarter of fiscal 2016, primarily reflecting a decrease in marketing expense.
International and Foodservice

FY16 Q4 Results | $ | 258.4 | $ | 33.0 | 12.8 | % | ||||||
Change vs prior year | 1 | % | 8 | % | 90 | bps |
Segment net sales increased $2.2 million. Volume/mix was favorable, contributing 4 percentage points of growth to net sales, primarily attributed to Foodservice. This was mostly offset by an unfavorable $7.0 million impact of foreign currency exchange and a slight decline in net price realization. Noncomparable sales in the current year of $6.1 million related to Big Heart were mostly offset by $5.1 million of noncomparable sales in the prior year related to the divested U.S. canned milk business. Segment profit increased $2.4 million, benefiting from favorable volume/mix, partially offset by higher costs attributed to sourcing certain products from the U.S., reflecting the impact of a weaker Canadian dollar compared to a year ago.

Non-GAAP Measures
The Company uses non-GAAP financial measures including: net sales excluding the noncomparable impact of acquisitions, divesture, and foreign currency exchange; non-GAAP gross profit, operating income, income (loss), and income (loss) per diluted share; adjusted non-GAAP income (loss) and income (loss) per diluted share; earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (“EBITDA”); and free cash flow as key measures for purposes of evaluating performance internally. The Company believes that these measures provide useful information to investors because they are the measures used to evaluate performance on a comparable year-over-year basis. Non-GAAP profit measures exclude certain items affecting comparability which include merger and integration and restructuring costs (“special project costs”) and unallocated gains and losses on commodity and foreign currency exchange derivatives (“unallocated derivative gains and losses”). The special project costs relate to specific merger and integration and restructuring projects that are each nonrecurring in nature and can significantly affect the year-over-year assessment of operating results. Unallocated derivative gains and losses reflect the changes in fair value of the Company’s commodity and foreign currency exchange contracts and also affect comparability on a year-over-year basis. Adjusted non-GAAP income per diluted share further excludes the noncash impact of intangible amortization. The Company believes this provides investors an additional metric to evaluate performance and the ability to generate cash necessary to achieve its deleveraging objectives. These non-GAAP financial measures are not intended to replace the presentation of financial results in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). Rather, the presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures supplements other metrics used by management to internally evaluate its businesses, and facilitates the comparison of past and present operations and liquidity. These non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to similar measures used by other companies and may exclude certain nondiscretionary expenses and cash payments. A reconciliation of certain non-GAAP financial measures to the comparable GAAP financial measure for the current and prior year periods is included in the “Unaudited Non-GAAP Financial Measures” tables. The Company has also provided a reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures for its fiscal 2017 outlook. As the amount of unallocated derivative gains and losses varies depending on market conditions and levels of derivative transactions with respect to a particular fiscal year, it is not determinable on a forward-looking basis and no guidance has been provided.
