  • Repurchased $837 million of common shares in the quarter
  • Board of Directors declared $0.2875 quarterly dividend

WATERBURY, Vt.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Keurig Green Mountain, Inc. (NASDAQ: GMCR), a leader in specialty coffee, coffee makers, teas and other beverages with its innovative brewing technology, today announced its business results for the 13 weeks ended March 28, 2015.

“We are pleased to report that our earnings per share in the second quarter were in line with our guidance. Our top-line growth, however, was below our expectations primarily due to the slower than expected transition to the Keurig 2.0 system. We are taking actions to reduce brewer inventories, enhance our 2.0 brewer packaging to better communicate our extensive brand variety and step up innovation on our owned brands,” said President and CEO, Brian Kelley.

“Although we are lowering our guidance to reflect the impact of near-term challenges related to this complex product transition, we remain highly confident in our long term strategy for the Keurig hot system and continue to believe there is a significant runway of opportunity. Combined with the upcoming launch of our Keurig KOLD system, we expect the Keurig brand to further expand and globalize while continuing to transform the premium home beverage experience for consumers," continued Kelley.

Net Sales by Product

Net sales of $1.1 billion increased 2% versus the prior year period primarily driven by growth in sales of pods (previously referred to as portion packs) partially offset by lower brewer and accessory sales. Foreign currency exchange rates negatively impacted sales by approximately 1 percentage point. Excluding the impact of foreign currency exchange rates, total net sales grew 3% and total Keurig beverage system sales grew 4% compared to the prior year period.

Net sales for the domestic segment increased 3% in the quarter while sales in the Canada segment declined 5% on a reported basis and grew 6% excluding the impact of foreign currency exchange rates.

Total pod net sales increased 7% in the quarter while brewers and accessories net sales declined 23%. Other product net sales declined 5% compared to the prior year period.

Subtotal 1,063.0 1,035.8 27.2 3 %
Other products   64.1   67.3   (3.2 ) (5 )%
Total net sales $ 1,127.1 $ 1,103.1 $ 24.0   2 %
 

Pods

  • The 7% increase in the quarter in pod net sales compared to the prior year period was due to a 14% increase in equivalent servings2 volume and a 1 percentage point increase due to net price realization. This was partially offset by a 7 percentage point decrease due to product mix and a roughly 1 percentage point negative impact from foreign currency exchange rates.

Brewers and Accessories

  • For the quarter, 1.4 million Keurig® system brewers were sold including 1.3 million sold by Keurig and 0.1 million reported sold by Keurig’s licensed brewer partners. This brewer shipment number does not account for consumer returns.
  • The 23% decline in Keurig’s brewer and accessory net sales compared to the prior year period was primarily due to a 22% decline in brewer sales volume, driven by high inventory levels at retail which negatively impacted shipments in the quarter and a difficult year ago comparison. Brewer net price realization declined by 1 percentage point and foreign currency exchange rates negatively impacted brewer net sales by roughly 1 percentage point. This was partially offset by 2 percentage points of positive brewer mix.
  • Additionally, accessory net sales declined 31% compared to the prior year period.

Other Products

  • Sales of other products declined 5% during the quarter from the prior year period primarily due to the continuing demand shift from traditional coffee package formats to pods.
  • For the quarter, gross margin declined 80 basis points versus prior year to 40.7% of net sales. The table below quantifies the changes in gross margin period to period. Obsolescence of finished goods includes a $10 million charge related to the Rivo® brewer in the second quarter which negatively impacted gross margin by 90 bps.
     

Change from Q2 2014 toQ2 2015

Shift in sales mix between pods, brewers and accessories and other products +260 bps
Higher obsolescence expense of finished goods -220 bps
Unfavorable green coffee costs -180 bps
Decrease in pod packaging material costs +100 bps
Logistics productivity +100 bps
Mix associated with pods -80 bps
Mix associated with brewers -60 bps
 
  • GAAP SG&A increased 9%, representing 19.1% of net sales for the quarter as compared to 17.9% in the prior year period. Non-GAAP SG&A increased 8% representing 17.8% of sales for the quarter as compared to 16.8% in the prior period. The increase in SG&A over the prior year period was driven by higher expenses associated with information technology and supporting our call centers and higher research and development expenses which include significant investments in the forthcoming Keurig® KOLD™ system.
  • GAAP operating income declined 6%, representing 21.6% of net sales for the quarter, compared to 23.6% in the prior year period.
  • Non-GAAP operating income declined 5%, representing 22.9% of net sales in the quarter, compared to 24.6% in the prior year period.
  • The Company’s effective income tax rate was 34.8% for the quarter as compared to 35.8% in the prior year period.
  • Diluted weighted average shares outstanding for the second quarter were 160.6 million, up 2% from 157.5 million in the prior year period as a result of 16.7 million shares and 1.4 million shares issued in connection with the Coca-Cola and Lavazza Equity Transactions3, respectively. Such transaction-related dilution was offset, in part, by the Company’s share repurchases under its previously announced share repurchase authorizations including a $700 million accelerated share repurchase (ASR) program, open market purchases and 10(b)5-1 plans and the previously announced repurchase of 5.2 million shares from Luigi Lavazza S.p.A. on March 3, 2015.
  • GAAP diluted EPS declined 6% from the prior year period to $0.97.
  • Non-GAAP diluted EPS declined 5% from the prior year period to $1.03. Non-GAAP EPS was negatively impacted by $0.08 per share dilution from the Coca-Cola and Lavazza Equity Transactions net of the ASR program repurchases and March 2015 Lavazza repurchase, both as discussed below, and $0.05 per share negative impact from foreign currency exchange. This compares to last year’s second quarter non-GAAP EPS negative impact of $0.04 per share dilution from the Coca-Cola and Lavazza Equity Transactions net of the ASR program repurchases. When excluding the impact of dilution and foreign currency, non-GAAP diluted EPS increased approximately 4% versus the prior year period.

From the inception of its Board authorized share repurchase program through the end of the second quarter, the Company repurchased a total of 25.9 million shares at an average price of $86.17 for a total cost of $2.2 billion. This was achieved through a combination of the ASR program, open market purchases and 10(b)5-1 plans, and the previously announced repurchase of 5.2 million shares from Luigi Lavazza S.p.A.

Conference Call and Webcast

Keurig will be discussing these financial results with analysts and investors in a conference call and live webcast available via the Internet at 5:00 p.m. ET today, May 6, 2015. The call is accessible via live webcast from the events section of the Investor Relations portion of the Company’s website at http://investor.keuriggreenmountain.com/events.cfm. The Company archives the latest conference call for a period of time. A replay of the conference call also will be available by telephone at (719) 457-0820, passcode 5171920 from 9:00 p.m. ET on May 6, 2015 through 9:00 p.m. ET on Monday, May 11, 2015.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In addition to reporting financial results in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), the Company provides non-GAAP operating results that exclude legal and accounting expenses related to the pending securities and stockholder derivative class action litigation, pending antitrust litigation against the Company, and the now concluded SEC inquiry; and non-cash acquisition-related items such as amortization of identifiable intangibles, each of which include adjustments to show the tax impact of excluding these items. In each case these amounts are not in accordance with, or an alternative to, GAAP. The Company’s management believes that these measures provide investors with transparency by helping illustrate the underlying financial and business trends relating to the Company’s results of operations and financial condition and comparability between current and prior periods. Management uses the measures to establish and monitor budgets and operational goals and to evaluate the performance of the Company. Please see the “GAAP to Non-GAAP Reconciliation” table that accompanies this document for a full reconciliation of the Company’s GAAP to non-GAAP results.

However, the absence of these words or similar expressions does not mean that a statement is not forward-looking. These statements may relate to: the expected impact of raw material costs and our pricing actions on our results of operations and gross margins, expected trends in net sales and earnings performance and other financial measures, the expected productivity and working capital improvements, the success of introducing and producing new product offerings, the impact of foreign exchange fluctuations, the adequacy of internally generated funds and existing sources of liquidity, such as the availability of bank financing, the expected results of operations of businesses acquired by us, our ability to issue debt or additional equity securities, projections for future capital expenditures, our expectations regarding purchasing shares of our common stock under the existing authorizations, projections of payment of dividends, the impact of pending shareholder litigation, and the impact of antitrust litigation pending against the Company in the United States and Canada. A forward-looking statement is neither a prediction nor a guarantee of future events or circumstances, and those future events or circumstances may not occur. Management believes that these forward-looking statements are reasonable as and when made. However, caution should be taken not to place undue reliance on any such forward-looking statements because such statements speak only as of the date when made.
