MIDDLETON, Wis.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Spectrum Brands Holdings, Inc. (NYSE: SPB; “Spectrum Brands” or the “Company”), a leading global branded consumer products and home essentials company focused on driving innovation and providing exceptional customer service, today reported results from continuing operations for the first quarter of fiscal 2022 ended January 2, 2022.
"These are exciting times for Spectrum Brands. We have now begun our evolution into a faster growing, higher margin pure play Global Pet Care and Home & Garden company. We believe we can create meaningful shareholder value with this transformation. Our first quarter went largely as expected, with continued top-line growth, while margins contracted as input cost inflation exceeded price increases. We have additional pricing actions in place, and more targeted, to offset the unprecedented inflation we are currently experiencing. We continue to expect to achieve our Earnings Framework for the year of mid to high single digit net sales growth and low single digit adjusted EBITDA growth. Consumer demand and retailer interest in our categories remain positive overall," said David Maura, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Spectrum Brands.
"We continue to work towards closing the sale of our Hardware and Home Improvement segment to Assa Abloy for $4.3 billion. We remain confident that the transaction will close this year, and are pleased to say that strong demand persists in HHI's end markets.
"The Tristar acquisition announced this morning will be transformational for our Home and Personal Care segment. The ability to leverage the studio content creation, DRTV and direct-to-consumer business model of Tristar’s talented team should enhance some of our legacy brands and help us drive continued market share gains for our combined slate of new product offerings. The increased scale and profitability of the combined HPC and Tristar businesses will now enable us to create an independent Global Appliances business poised for faster growth and expanding margins, and positioned for potential further acquisitions in that space. We firmly believe in this value creation opportunity and look forward to providing an update on the nature of the separation as the year progresses," said Mr. Maura.

- Net sales increased 2.9%. Excluding the impact of $7.3 million of unfavorable foreign exchange rates and acquisition sales of $16.5 million, organic net sales increased 1.6% despite COVID related supply disruptions and overall supply chain constraints.
- Gross profit margin declined 530 basis points from a year ago due to accelerated freight and input costs pacing ahead of pricing adjustments, partially offset by improved productivity.
- Operating income decreased due to the gross profit margin decline further pressured by higher distribution costs, as well as continued investment in marketing and new product innovation.
- Net income and diluted earnings per share declines were primarily driven by decreases in operating income and prior year gains from the Company's previous investment in Energizer common stock.
- Adjusted EBITDA decreased 53.4% and adjusted EBITDA margins decreased 790 basis points attributable to the decrease in operating income.
- Adjusted diluted EPS decreased to a loss of $0.06 per share due to lower operating income.
- During the quarter, the Company repurchased 1,128,500 shares for $110.0 million. The Company purchased $125.9 million of its $150 million 10b5-1 share repurchase contract through the end of the quarter.

Net sales increased despite continuing supply chain constraints and continued demand outpacing supply. Growth was driven by the Latin America region from strong holiday season sales performance and expanded distribution. This was partially offset by a sales decline from product availability issues related to supply chain constraints and comparison to prior year COVID related demand increases. Excluding unfavorable foreign exchange impacts of $5.1 million, organic net sales grew 1.7%.
Lower operating income, adjusted EBITDA, and margins were driven by accelerated freight and input cost inflation ahead of incremental pricing actions and continued investments in marketing and new product development initiatives partially offset by productivity improvements.

Higher net sales were attributable to double digit growth in aquatics and continued strong growth in companion animals categories. Top-line results were further helped by companion animal sales from acquisitions. Excluding unfavorable foreign exchange impacts of $2.2 million and acquisition sales of $8.8 million, organic net sales increased 7.3%. Sales grew across all regions despite COVID related supply disruptions including temporary shut-down of key supplier manufacturing facilities and continued supply chain constraints which negatively impacted product availability in the quarter.
Lower operating income, adjusted EBITDA, and margins were driven by increased freight and input cost inflation ahead of timing of incremental pricing actions. Labor inflation, labor turnover and associated inefficiencies drove incremental operating costs in the quarter in addition to continued marketing and new product initiatives. This was partially offset by productivity improvements.

Net sales declined across all product categories as the prior year was historically high driven by low year-end retailer inventory at the end of FY20 and early inventory build by customers in Q1 FY21. Sales were also impacted by supply chain and customer related transportation challenges that shifted some product deliveries past quarter-end. Sales from the Rejuvenate acquisition offset a portion of the sales decline. Excluding the impact of acquisition sales, organic net sales declined 17.9%. Sales excluding the impact of acquisition are 47% ahead of a more normal Q1 FY20 driven by organic growth from strong consumer demand and increased distribution.
Lower operating income, adjusted EBITDA, and margins were driven by freight and input cost inflation, continued marketing and product development investments and a temporary product mix shift towards lower margin product. This was partially offset by pricing and productivity improvements.
Liquidity and Debt
As of the end of the quarter, the Company had a cash balance of $205 million and approximately $2,994 million of debt outstanding, consisting of approximately $2,032 million of senior unsecured notes, $862 million of term loans and revolver draws and approximately $100 million of capital leases and other obligations.
Net leverage at the end of the first quarter was 4.8 times, compared to 3.5 times at the end of the previous quarter, as the trailing twelve month EBITDA declined and the company had an increased outstanding balance on its Revolver Facility of $465 million to support working capital requirements from continued supply disruptions and share repurchases.
Fiscal 2022 Earnings Framework
Spectrum Brands continues to expect mid to high single-digit reported net sales growth in Fiscal 2022, with foreign exchange expected to have a slightly negative impact based upon current rates.
The company continues to expect Fiscal 2022 adjusted EBITDA to increase by low-single digits. Spectrum Brands expects $310-$330 million of additional inflation during Fiscal 2022, up from a previous range of $240-$260 million, and intends to offset the high inflation through additional pricing as needed.
From a capital structure perspective, the Company is reiterating a long-term net leverage target ratio of 2.0 - 2.5 times after full deployment of HHI proceeds.

Non-GAAP Measurements
Management believes that certain non-GAAP financial measures may be useful in providing additional meaningful comparisons between current results and results in prior periods. Management believes that organic net sales provide for a more complete understanding of underlying business trends of regional and segment performance by excluding the impact of currency exchange rate fluctuations and the impact of acquisitions. In addition, within this release, including the supplemental information attached hereto, reference is made to adjusted diluted EPS, adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA), and adjusted EBITDA margin. Adjusted EBITDA is a metric used by management to evaluate segment performance and frequently used by the financial community which provides insight into an organization’s operating trends and facilitates comparisons between peer companies, since interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization can differ greatly between organizations as a result of differing capital structures and tax strategies. Adjusted EBITDA also is one of the measures used for determining compliance with the Company’s debt covenants. Adjusted EBITDA excludes certain items that are unusual in nature or not comparable from period to period. Adjusted EBITDA margin reflects adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of net sales of the Company. The Company’s management uses adjusted diluted EPS as one means of analyzing the Company’s current and future financial performance and identifying trends in its financial condition and results of operations. Management believes that adjusted diluted EPS is a useful measure for providing further insight into our operating performance because it eliminates the effects of certain items that are not comparable from one period to the next. An income tax adjustment is included in adjusted diluted EPS to exclude the impact of the valuation allowance against deferred taxes and other tax-related items in order to reflect a normalized ongoing effective tax rate. The Company provides this information to investors to assist in comparisons of past, present and future operating results and to assist in highlighting the results of on-going operations. While the Company’s management believes that non-GAAP measurements are useful supplemental information, such adjusted results are not intended to replace the Company’s GAAP financial results and should be read in conjunction with those GAAP results. Other Supplemental Information has been provided to demonstrate reconciliation of non-GAAP measurements discussed above to most relevant GAAP financial measurements.

OTHER SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION (Unaudited)
ADJUSTED DILUTED EPS
We define adjusted diluted EPS as reported diluted EPS excluding the effect of one-time, non-recurring activity and volatility associated with our income tax expense. The Company believes that adjusted diluted EPS provides further insight and comparability in operating performance as it eliminates the effects of certain items that are not comparable from one period to the next. Adjustments to diluted EPS include the following:
- Restructuring and related charges consist of project costs associated with the restructuring initiatives across the Company's segments;
- Transaction related charges are attributable to costs from qualifying strategic transaction or business opportunities, including an acquisition or divestiture, whether or not consummated, subsequent integration related project costs, divestiture support and incremental separation costs.
- Unallocated shared costs associated with discontinued operations from certain shared and center-led administrative functions s the Company's business units excluded from income from discontinued operations as they are not a direct cost of the discontinued business but a result of indirect allocations, including but not limited to, information technology, human resources, finance and accounting, supply chain, and commercial operations. Amounts attributable to unallocated shared costs would be mitigated through subsequent strategic or restructuring initiatives, TSAs, elimination of extraneous costs, or re-allocations or absorption of existing continuing operations following the completed sale of the discontinued operations.
- Non-cash purchase accounting inventory adjustments recognized in earnings from continuing operations subsequent to an acquisition;
- Non-cash asset impairments or write-offs realized and recognized in earnings from continuing operations;
- Gains attributable to the Company investment in Energizer common stock during the three month period ended January 3, 2021. which the Company subsequently sold its remaining shares in January 2021.
- Incremental reserves for non-recurring litigation or environmental remediation activity including the proposed settlement on outstanding litigation matters at our H&G division attributable to significant and unusual nonrecurring claims with no previous history or precedent recognized during the three month period ended January 3, 2021 and the subsequent remeasurement during the three month period ended January 2, 2022;
- Incremental costs realized under a three-year tolling agreement entered into with the buyer in consideration with the divestiture of the Coevorden Operations on March 29, 2020, for the continued production of dog and cat food products purchased to support the GPC commercial operations and distribution in Europe;
- Other adjustments are primarily attributable to (1) incremental fines and penalties realized for delayed shipments following the transition of third-party logistics service provider in GPC during the three month period ended January 2, 2022; and (2) costs associated with Salus they are not considered a component of the continuing commercial products company; and
- Income tax adjustment to diluted EPS is to exclude the impact of adjusting the valuation allowance against deferred taxes and other tax related items in order to reflect a normalized ongoing effective tax rate of 25.0% for the three month periods ended January 2, 2022 and January 3, 2021 based upon enacted corporate tax rate in the United States.

We define organic net sales as reported net sales excluding the effect of changes in foreign currency exchange rates and acquisitions. We believe this non-GAAP measure provides useful information to investors because it reflects regional and operating segment performance from our activities without the effect of changes in currency exchange rate and/or acquisitions. We use organic net sales as one measure to monitor and evaluate our regional and segment performance. Organic growth is calculated by comparing organic net sales to reported net sales in the prior year. The effect of changes in currency exchange rates is determined by translating the period’s net sales using the currency exchange rates that were in effect during the prior period. Net sales are attributed to the geographic regions based on the country of destination. We exclude net sales from acquired businesses in the current year for which there are no comparable sales in the prior period.

ADJUSTED EBITDA AND ADJUSTED EBITDA MARGIN
Adjusted EBITDA (Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation, Amortization) is a non-GAAP metric used by management that we believe provides useful information to investors because it reflects ongoing operating performance and trends of our segments excluding certain non-cash based expenses and/or non-recurring items during each of the comparable periods and facilitates comparisons between peer companies since interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization can differ greatly between organizations as a result of differing capital structures and tax strategies. Further, adjusted EBITDA is a measure used for determining the Company’s debt covenant. EBITDA is calculated by excluding the Company’s income tax expense, interest expense, depreciation expense and amortization expense (from intangible assets) from net income. Adjusted EBITDA further excludes the following:
- Stock based compensation costs consist of costs associated with long-term incentive compensation arrangements that generally consist of non-cash, stock-based compensation. During the three month period ended January 3, 2021 compensation costs included incentive bridge awards previously issued due to changes in the Company’s LTIP that allowed for cash based payment upon employee election but do not qualify for shared-based compensation, which were fully vested in November 2020;
- Restructuring and related charges consist of project costs associated with the restructuring initiatives across the Company's segments;
- Transaction related charges are attributable to costs from qualifying strategic transaction or business opportunities, including an acquisition or divestiture, whether or not consummated, subsequent integration related project costs, divestiture support and incremental separation costs;
- Unallocated shared costs associated with discontinued operations from certain shared and center-led administrative functions s the Company's business units excluded from income from discontinued operations as they are not a direct cost of the discontinued business but a result of indirect allocations, including but not limited to, information technology, human resources, finance and accounting, supply chain, and commercial operations. Amounts attributable to unallocated shared costs would be mitigated through subsequent strategic or restructuring initiatives, TSAs, elimination of extraneous costs, or re-allocations or absorption of existing continuing operations following the completed sale of the discontinued operations.
- Non-cash purchase accounting inventory adjustments recognized in earnings from continuing operations subsequent to an acquisition;
- Non-cash asset impairments or write-offs realized and recognized in earnings from continuing operations;
- Gains attributable to the Company investment in Energizer common stock during the three month period ended January 3, 2021. which the Company subsequently sold its remaining shares in January 2021.
- Incremental reserves for non-recurring litigation or environmental remediation activity including the proposed settlement on outstanding litigation matters at our H&G division attributable to significant and unusual nonrecurring claims with no previous history or precedent recognized during the three month period ended January 3, 2021 and the subsequent remeasurement during the three month period ended January 2, 2022;

- Other adjustments are primarily attributable to (1) incremental fines and penalties realized for delayed shipments following the transition of third-party logistics service provider in GPC during the three month period ended January 2, 2022; (2) costs associated with Salus as they are not considered a component of the continuing commercial products company.
Adjusted EBITDA margin is calculated as adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of reported net sales for the respective periods.
