Nash Finch Reports Second Quarter 2011 Results; Consolidated EBITDA1 Improvement Continues

MINNEAPOLIS--()--Nash Finch Company (NASDAQ:NAFC), one of the leading food distribution companies in the United States, today announced financial results for the twelve weeks (second quarter) ended June 18, 2011.

Financial Results

Total company sales for the second quarter 2011 were $1.10 billion compared to $1.15 billion in the prior year quarter, a decrease of 4.8%. Excluding the impact of the sales decrease of $18.1 million attributable to the previously announced transition of a portion of a food distribution buying group to another supplier during 2010 and the effect of selling or closing eight retail stores, total company comparable sales decreased 2.5% relative to last year. Sales for the first twenty-four weeks of 2011 were $2.20 billion compared to $2.33 billion in the prior year period, a decrease of 5.8%. Excluding the impact of the sales decrease of $52.6 million attributable to the previously announced transition of a portion of a food distribution buying group to another supplier during 2010 and the effect of selling or closing eight retail stores, total company comparable sales decreased 3.1% relative to last year.

Consolidated EBITDA for the second quarter 2011 increased by 4.5% to $33.4 million, or 3.0% of sales, as compared to $31.9 million, or 2.8% of sales, for the prior year quarter. For the first twenty-four weeks of 2011, Consolidated EBITDA was $63.2 million, or 2.9% of sales, compared to $60.5 million, or 2.6% of sales, in the prior year period. Consolidated EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure that is reconciled to the most directly comparable GAAP financial results in the attached financial statements.

“We are pleased with the consolidated EBITDA improvement for both the second quarter and year-to-date periods as compared to the prior year, as well as with the improvement in EBITDA margin rate,” said Alec Covington, President and CEO of Nash Finch. “We remain well positioned with a solid balance sheet which will allow us to continue to invest in our business to drive shareholder value.”

Net earnings for the second quarter 2011 were $10.1 million, or $0.77 per diluted share, as compared to net earnings of $10.7 million, or $0.81 per diluted share, in the prior year quarter. Net earnings for the first twenty-four weeks of 2011 were $17.5 million, or $1.35 per diluted share, as compared to net earnings of $18.7 million, or $1.40 per diluted share, in the same prior year period. Net earnings for the second quarter 2011 and 2010 were negatively affected by significant items totaling $2.1 million and $0.7 million, or $0.15 and $0.05 per diluted share, respectively. Net earnings for the year-to-date 2011 and 2010 were negatively affected by significant items totaling $4.2 million and $0.9 million, or $0.31 and $0.07 per diluted share, respectively, and are detailed in the table below.

The following table identifies the significant items affecting our Consolidated EBITDA, net earnings and diluted earnings per share for the second quarter and year-to-date 2011 and prior year results:

The military segment net sales increased 2.6% in the second quarter 2011 and 1.1% in the year-to-date 2011 period compared to the prior year. However, a larger portion of military sales during the current year have been on a consignment basis, which are not included in our reported net sales. The year-over-year increase in consignment sales was approximately $2.5 million during the quarter and $8.2 million in the year-to-date period. Including the impact of consignment sales, comparable military sales increased 3.0% in the second quarter 2011 and 1.8% in the year-to-date 2011 period compared to the prior year.

The military segment EBITDA increased by 2.0% in the second quarter 2011 and 2.2% in the year-to-date 2011 period compared to the same periods last year. The military EBITDA as a percentage of sales was 2.8% in the second quarter and year-to-date periods of 2011 and 2010.

“Over the past few years, we have focused our capital investments on the military side of the business. The continued strength of that business shows our investments were well made. Not only do our military associates do an exemplary job of serving our military heroes at home and abroad, their efforts are invaluable in helping our Company to deliver an appropriate return to our shareholders,” said Covington.

The combined food distribution and retail segment sales decrease in the second quarter and year-to-date periods of 2011 compared to the 2010 periods was 10.7% and 11.4%, respectively. The decrease in sales was negatively impacted by the previously announced transition of a portion of a customer buying group to another supplier during the second quarter 2010. However, after adjusting to exclude this sales impact of $18.1 million and the sale of four and closing of four retail stores, sales declined 6.9% for the second quarter and 6.7% year-to-date. Retail same store sales declined 3.7% as compared to the prior year quarter and 3.3% in the year-to-date comparison.

The food distribution and retail segment EBITDA increased by 6.6% in the second quarter 2011 and 6.8% in the year-to-date 2011 period compared to the same periods last year. Food distribution and retail segment EBITDA as a percentage of sales improved to 3.3% in the second quarter 2011 as compared to 2.7% in the prior year quarter. Food distribution and retail segment EBITDA as a percentage of sales improved to 2.9% in the year-to-date 2011 period as compared to 2.4% in the same period last year.

“We are pleased with the solid improvement in the food distribution and retail segment EBITDA results that were achieved during both the second quarter and year-to-date periods,” said Covington. “While the top line continues to be a challenge in the current environment, we continue to focus our efforts on profitability enhancements driven principally through improvements in inventory management and overall productivity.”

Financial Target Progress

Improvements on our key financial targets have been achieved to date since the targets were announced as part of the Company’s strategic plan in November 2006. In particular, Consolidated EBITDA margin improved from 2.2% to 2.9% of sales and the debt leverage ratio has improved from 3.11x to 2.28x from Fiscal 2006 to the second quarter 2011. The ratio of free cash flow to net assets excluding the impact of strategic projects has increased from 8.7% in Fiscal 2006 to 10.9% in the second quarter 2011.

The following table charts the Company’s progress towards its long-term financial targets that are anticipated to be attained through successful execution of the strategic plan.

1 References to EBITDA, Consolidated EBITDA, and segment EBITDA are calculated as earnings before interest, income tax, depreciation and amortization, adjusted to exclude extraordinary gains or losses, gains or losses from sales of assets other than inventory in the ordinary course of business, and non-cash charges (such as LIFO, asset impairments, closed store lease costs and share-based compensation), less cash payments made during the current period on non-cash charges recorded in prior periods. Consolidated EBITDA should not be considered an alternative measure of our net income, operating performance, cash flows or liquidity. Consolidated EBITDA is provided as additional information as a key metric used to determine payout pursuant to our Short-Term and Long-Term Incentive Plans.

2 Organic Revenue Growth is the percentage change in revenues for a fiscal period(s) compared to the similar prior year fiscal period(s), excluding incremental revenue obtained through acquisitions.

3 Consolidated EBITDA Margin is calculated by dividing Consolidated EBITDA by sales.

4 Trailing Four Quarter Free Cash Flow to Net Assets ratio is defined as cash provided from operations less capital expenditures for property, plant & equipment during the trailing four quarters divided by the average net assets for the current period and prior year comparable period (total assets less current liabilities plus current portion of long-term debt and capital leases).

5 Trailing Four Quarter Free Cash Flow to Net Assets excluding impact of strategic projects ratio is defined as cash provided from operations less capital expenditures for property, plant & equipment (excluding capital expenditures for strategic projects) during the trailing four quarters divided by the average net assets (excluding average net assets generated from strategic projects) for the current period and prior year comparable period (total assets less current liabilities plus current portion of long-term debt and capital leases).

6 Total Leverage Ratio is defined as total debt (current portion of long-term debt and capital leases, long-term debt and capitalized lease obligations) divided by the trailing four quarters Consolidated EBITDA.

Consolidated EBITDA, as defined in our credit agreement, is earnings before interest, income tax, depreciation and amortization, adjusted to exclude extraordinary gains or losses, gains or losses from sales of assets other than inventory in the ordinary course of business, and non-cash charges (such as LIFO, asset impairments, closed store lease costs and share-based compensation), less cash payments made during the current period on non-cash charges recorded in prior periods. Consolidated EBITDA should not be considered an alternative measure of our net income, operating performance, cash flows or liquidity. The amount of Consolidated EBITDA is provided as a metric used to determine payout of performance units pursuant to our Long-Term Incentive Plan.

 
(b)

Leverage ratio is defined as the Company's total debt at June 18, 2011 and June 19, 2010, divided by Consolidated EBITDA for the respective four trailing quarters.
