“Overall, we had a great third quarter. We delivered strong top-line growth of 23% in the third quarter which helped drive Adjusted EBITDA of $32.5 million for the period.” said Phil Horlock, President and Chief Executive Officer of Blue Bird Corporation. “Momentum behind our propane-powered bus offering continues with sales up 92% over prior year in the quarter. We began production of our new gasoline-powered Vision school bus and plan to start shipping buses with this powertrain in our fiscal fourth quarter, pending final certification from the EPA. Due to later-than-expected EPA approval of our exclusive gasoline bus, we see potential for slightly lower volume in the fourth quarter. As such, we are adjusting our full year net revenue guidance downward to $930-950 million and revising Adjusted EBITDA to $70-72 million. Due to our ongoing focus on cash management, we are able to maintain Adjusted Free Cash Flow at $30-35 million.”

Third Quarter & Year-to-Date 2016 Results
Sales
Third Quarter:
Total net sales were $323.1 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2016, an increase of $60.4 million or 23.0% over prior year. Bus unit sales were 3,768 units for the quarter this year compared with 2,993 units for the same period last year.
For the bus segment, the average net sales price per unit for the third quarter of fiscal 2016 was 1.1% lower than the price per unit for the same period in fiscal 2015. This decrease in unit price reflects mainly product and customer mix changes.
Parts sales of $13.6 million reflect a year-over-year decrease of $0.5 million.
Year-to-Date:
Total net sales were $645.6 million for the nine months ended July 2, 2016, an increase of $34.1 million or 5.6% compared with prior year. This was primarily driven by an increase in bus unit sales, which were 398 units above last year for the same period.
For the bus segment, the average net sales price per unit for the nine months ended July 2, 2016 was 0.4% higher than the price per unit for the nine months ended during the comparable quarter last year. This increase in unit price reflects a higher mix of propane-powered buses as well as customer mix changes.
Parts sales for the nine months ended July 2, 2016 were $40.8 million, a decrease of $1.0 million or 2.5% compared with prior year.
Gross Profit
Third Quarter:
Third quarter gross profit of $46.8 million represents an increase of $10.1 million over the third quarter of last year.
Bus gross profit of $41.6 million for the third quarter improved by $9.9 million compared with the third quarter of last year. Gross profits for the quarter were mainly impacted by increased volume and a higher mix of propane-powered buses.
Parts gross profit in the third quarter of 2016 of $5.2 million was $0.2 million higher than the same period in 2015.
Year-to-Date:
Year-to-date gross profit was $90.7 million, up $11.5 million from the prior year.
Bus gross profit of $75.1 million was up by $11.2 million. The increase in bus gross profit was primarily driven by increased volume and a greater mix of propane-powered buses.
Parts gross profit year-to-date of $15.6 million was up $0.3 million compared with the prior year.
Adjusted EBITDA
Third Quarter:
Adjusted EBITDA was $32.5 million or 10.1% of net sales for the third quarter of fiscal 2016, an increase of $9.1 million, or 39.1%, compared with $23.4 million or 8.9% of net sales for the third quarter of fiscal 2015. The increase in adjusted EBITDA is primarily the result of increased gross profit.
Year-to-Date:
Adjusted EBITDA was $47.8 million or 7.4% of net sales for the nine months ended July 2, 2016, an increase of $7.0 million, or 17.1%, compared to $40.9 million or 6.7% of net sales for the nine months ended July 4, 2015. The increase in adjusted EBITDA is primarily the result of higher gross profit, partially offset by increased adjusted selling, general and administrative expenses.
Net Income from Continuing Operations
Third Quarter:
Net loss from continuing operations was $1.8 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2016, a decrease of $12.4 million compared with the third quarter of fiscal 2015. The decrease primarily reflects lower operating profit of $16.6 million, driven primarily by $26.2 million of stock-based compensation, special compensation and business combination expenses. The decrease was partially offset by lower tax expense of $3.4 million and a decrease of $0.5 million in interest income and expense.
Adjusted Net Income from Continuing Operations was $16.2 million, representing an increase of $4.6 million compared with the same period last year.
Year-to-Date:
Net loss from continuing operations was $2.7 million for the nine months ended July 2, 2016, a decrease of $1.6 million compared with the nine months ended July 4, 2015. This reflects primarily a decrease in operating profit of $1.7 million.
Adjusted Net Income from Continuing Operations was $16.9 million, representing an increase of $4.4 million compared with the same period last year.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This press release may include the following non-GAAP financial measures: “Adjusted EBITDA,” "Adjusted Net Income," "Adjusted Diluted Earnings per Share," “Free Cash Flow” and “Adjusted Free Cash Flow.” Adjusted EBITDA is defined as income from continuing operations prior to interest income, interest expense, income taxes, and depreciation and amortization, as adjusted to add back certain charges that we may record each year, such as stock-compensation expense and transaction costs, as these expenses are not considered an indicator of ongoing company performance. Adjusted net income is defined as net income, as adjusted to add back certain transaction costs not considered an indicator of ongoing company performance. Adjusted diluted earnings per share represents adjusted income (loss) from continuing operations divided by diluted weighted average common shares outstanding (as if we had GAAP net income during the respective period). Adjusted net income from continuing operations and adjusted diluted earnings per share are calculated net of taxes. Free cash flow represents net cash provided by continuing operations minus cash paid for fixed assets. Adjusted Free Cash flow represents free cash flow excluding cash paid for special compensation and other business combination expenses.
There are limitations to using non-GAAP measures. Although Blue Bird believes that such measures may enhance an evaluation of Blue Bird’s operating performance and cash flows, (i) other companies in Blue Bird’s industry may define such measures differently than Blue Bird does and, as a result, they may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies in Blue Bird’s industry and (ii) such measures may exclude certain financial information that some may consider important in evaluating Blue Bird’s performance and cash flows.
