WALNUT CREEK, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Central Garden & Pet Company (NASDAQ: CENT) (NASDAQ: CENTA) (“Central”), a market leader in the Pet and Garden industries, today announced its third quarter fiscal 2023 financial results for the period ended June 24, 2023.
“We delivered record operating income and earnings per share in the third quarter while expanding gross margin, growing market share and significantly improving our cash position. We are also pleased with the progress we are making on our cost and simplicity program,” said Tim Cofer, CEO of Central Garden & Pet. “Given our record Q3 performance, coupled with the early visibility we have into the fourth quarter, we are raising our outlook for the full year.”
Fiscal 2023 Third Quarter Financial Results
Net sales increased 1% to $1,023 million from $1,015 million a year ago.
Gross margin expanded by 80 basis points to 31.1% from 30.3% a year ago, and by 160 basis points to 31.9% on a non-GAAP basis. The gross margin expansion was driven by improved pricing, cost management and favorable product mix.
Operating income increased 8% to $123 million from $114 million a year ago, and 20% to $137 million on a non-GAAP basis. Operating margin expanded by 80 basis points to 12.0% from 11.2% in the prior year, and by 220 basis points to 13.4% on a non-GAAP basis. The operating margin expansion was driven by improved gross profit and reduced commercial spend to align with demand.
Net interest expense was $13 million compared to $14 million in the prior year quarter.
The Company's net income increased 10% to $83 million from $75 million a year ago, and 24% to $94 million on a non-GAAP basis. Earnings per share increased $0.17 to $1.56 from $1.39 in the prior year, and $0.36 to $1.75 on a non-GAAP basis. Adjusted EBITDA increased 17.3% to $166 million from $141 million in the prior year.
The Company’s effective tax rate was 24.4% compared to 23.7% in the prior year quarter.
Pet Segment Fiscal 2023 Third Quarter Results
Net sales for the Pet segment of $503 million were essentially flat compared to $505 million in the prior year. Strength in Dog & Cat Treats & Toys as well as Bird was offset by lower sales in Outdoor Cushions and lower demand for durable pet products.
Pet segment operating income was $60 million compared to $63 million a year ago and increased 18% to $74 million on a non-GAAP basis. Operating margin was 11.9% compared to 12.4% in the prior year. On a non-GAAP basis, operating margin increased by 230 basis points to 14.7% driven by improved pricing and cost management. Pet segment adjusted EBITDA was $84 million compared to $72 million a year ago.
Garden Segment Fiscal 2023 Third Quarter Results
Net sales for the Garden segment increased 2% to $520 million from $511 million a year ago. Strength in Live Goods, Packet Seed and Wild Bird was partly offset by lower sales in Distribution and Grass Seed.
Garden segment operating income increased 17% to $88 million from $76 million a year ago, and operating margin increased by 210 basis points to 16.9% from 14.8% in the prior year. The increase in operating margin was mainly driven by improved pricing, favorable product mix and cost management. Garden segment adjusted EBITDA increased 17% to $99 million from $85 million in the prior year quarter.
Additional Information
The Company's cash balance at the end of the quarter was $333 million compared to $196 million a year ago. Cash provided by operations during the quarter was $325 million compared to $190 million a year ago. The increase in cash provided by operations was driven by a reduction in inventory as the Company converted inventory to cash.
Total debt as of June 24, 2023 and June 25, 2022 was $1.2 billion. The Company's leverage ratio, as defined in the Company's credit agreement, at the end of the third quarter was 3.1x compared to 2.9x at the end of the prior year quarter. The Company repurchased approximately 466,011 shares or $16.7 million of its stock during the quarter.
Cost and Simplicity Program
The Company continues to progress its multi-year cost and simplicity program consisting of a pipeline of projects across a number of key areas including procurement, manufacturing, logistics, portfolio management and administrative costs to simplify its business and improve efficiency across the organization. In the third quarter fiscal 2023, as expected, the Company incurred $14 million of one-time charges related to the closure of its pet bedding facility in Texas, the majority of which were non-cash.
Earlier this week, the Company completed the sale of its independent garden center distribution business to reduce complexity and improve margins. The Company will retain its third-party distribution business with its largest three retail partners and select other national accounts. The Company will share more details on its earnings call.
Fiscal 2023 Guidance
Taking the record Q3 performance into account, coupled with the early visibility into the fourth quarter, the Company now expects fiscal 2023 non-GAAP EPS of $2.55 or better. This outlook reflects the macroeconomic uncertainty, cost inflation, evolving consumer behavior and unfavorable retailer inventory dynamics, as well as pricing actions and productivity initiatives across the Company's portfolio. The Company anticipates capital spending significantly below fiscal 2022 levels. Fiscal 2023 will have 53 weeks compared to 52 weeks in fiscal 2022. This outlook excludes the impact of any acquisitions, divestitures or restructuring activities that may occur during fiscal 2023, including any projects under the cost and simplicity program.
Conference Call
The Company's senior management will hold a conference call today at 4:30 p.m. Eastern Time (1:30 p.m. Pacific Time) to discuss its third quarter fiscal 2023 financial results and provide a general business update. The conference call and related materials can be accessed at http://ir.central.com.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
We report our financial results in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP). However, to supplement the financial results prepared in accordance with GAAP, we use non-GAAP financial measures including non-GAAP net income and diluted net income per share, non-GAAP operating income and adjusted EBITDA. Management believes non-GAAP financial measures may be useful to investors in their assessment of our ongoing operating performance and provide additional meaningful comparisons between current results and results in prior operating periods.
Adjusted EBITDA is defined by us as income before income tax, net other expense, net interest expense, depreciation and amortization and stock-based compensation (or operating income plus depreciation and amortization and stock-based compensation expense). Adjusted EBITDA further excludes one-time charges related to facility closures. We present adjusted EBITDA because we believe that adjusted EBITDA is a useful supplemental measure in evaluating the cash flows and performance of our business and provides greater transparency into our results of operations. Adjusted EBITDA is used by our management to perform such evaluation. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for cash flow from operations, income from operations or other income statement measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. We believe that adjusted EBITDA is frequently used by investors, securities analysts and other interested parties in their evaluation of companies, many of which present adjusted EBITDA when reporting their results. Other companies may calculate adjusted EBITDA differently and it may not be comparable.
The reconciliations of these non-GAAP measures to the most directly comparable financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP are shown in the tables below. We have not provided a reconciliation of non-GAAP guidance measures to the corresponding GAAP measures on a forward-looking basis due to the potential variability and limited visibility of excluded items. We believe that the non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information to investors and other users of our financial statements by allowing for greater transparency in the review of our financial and operating performance. Management also uses these non-GAAP measures in making financial, operating and planning decisions and in evaluating our performance, and we believe it may be useful to investors in evaluating our financial and operating performance and the trends in our business from management's point of view. While our management believes that non-GAAP measurements are useful supplemental information, such adjusted results are not intended to replace our GAAP financial results and should be read in conjunction with those GAAP results.
Non-GAAP financial measures reflect adjustments based on the following items:
- Facility closure: we have excluded the impact of the closure of our Athens, Texas pet bedding facility as it represents an infrequent transaction that occurs in limited circumstances that impacts the comparability between operating periods. We believe the adjustment of closure costs supplements the GAAP information with a measure that may be used to assess the sustainability of our operating performance.
From time to time in the future, there may be other items that we may exclude if we believe that doing so is consistent with the goal of providing useful information to investors and management.
- During the third quarter of fiscal 2023, we recognized incremental expense of $13.9 million in the consolidated statement of operations, from the closure of a leased manufacturing and distribution facility in Athens, Texas.
