LANCASTER, Pa., April 27, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Armstrong World Industries, Inc. (NYSE: AWI), a leader in the design, innovation and manufacture of commercial and residential ceiling, wall and suspension system solutions, today reported financial results for the first quarter 2021.
“The first quarter of 2021 was a solid start to what we expect will be a robust year of growth for AWI,” said Vic Grizzle, President and CEO of Armstrong. “We are encouraged by the re-openings in many of our markets and progress toward broader economic recovery, highlighted by the record order intake for our Architectural Specialties products in the first quarter. We remain confident that our actions over the past year have strengthened our position to capitalize on a market recovery in 2021 and beyond. I am especially pleased to see growing interest and engagement in our Healthy Spaces initiatives. We are squarely focused on the emerging opportunity to provide solutions designed to facilitate a return to safe and sustainable indoor spaces.”
First Quarter Results from Continuing Operations
| (Dollar amounts in millions except per-share data) | For the Three Months Ended March 31, | |||||||||||
| 2021 | 2020 | Change | ||||||||||
| Net sales | $ | 251.9 | $ | 248.7 | 1.3 | % | ||||||
| Operating income | $ | 54.1 | $ | 76.0 | (28.8 | )% | ||||||
| Earnings (loss) from continuing operations | $ | 37.5 | $ | (222.6 | ) | Favorable | ||||||
| Diluted earnings (loss) per share | $ | 0.78 | $ | (4.64 | ) | Favorable | ||||||
Consolidated net sales for the first quarter of 2021 increased 1.3% over the same period in 2020 due to favorable Average Unit Value (AUV) of $5 million, partially offset by lower volumes of $2 million. Mineral Fiber net sales decreased by $9 million and Architectural Specialties net sales increased by $12 million. Volumes for both the Mineral Fiber and Architectural Specialties segments were pressured by lower market demand due to COVID-19 which began impacting the Company’s sales activity in the second quarter of 2020. These declines were more than offset by a $17 million increase in net sales attributable to the acquisition of Turf Design, Moz Designs and Arktura in 2020.
Operating income decreased in line with Company expectations from the strong prior year quarter, driven primarily by lower sales volume in the Mineral Fiber segment and higher SG&A costs attributable to incentive compensation accruals and incremental costs from the 2020 acquisitions. These headwinds were partially offset by favorable AUV, improved manufacturing productivity and an increase in WAVE equity earnings.
Prior year period net earnings were impacted by the transfer of certain pension benefit obligations and assets of the U.S. Retirement Income Plan (RIP), which resulted in a $374 million settlement loss recorded in 2020.

| Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA | $ | 85 | $ | 97 | (12.0 | )% | ||||||
Consolidated adjusted EBITDA declined in the first quarter when compared to the same prior year period, driven primarily by unfavorable channel mix and an increase in SG&A expenses, partially offset by favorable AUV, and WAVE equity earnings. Adjusted free cash flow declined primarily due to lower operating cash flows, driven by volume declines. The decline in adjusted EBITDA was in line with management’s expectations.
First Quarter Segment Highlights
Mineral Fiber

| 2021 | 2020 | Change | ||||||||||
| Net sales (as reported) | $ | 188.7 | $ | 197.7 | (4.6 | )% | ||||||

| Adjusted EBITDA | $ | 78 | $ | 87 | (10.1 | )% | ||||||
Mineral Fiber net sales decreased due to lower volumes, driven by decreased demand due to COVID-19, partially offset by favorable AUV. Favorable AUV was driven by positive like for like pricing and mix attributable to the sale of higher end products.
Operating income decreased as expected in the first quarter primarily due to the negative impact of lower sales volume and higher SG&A attributable incentive compensation accruals, partially offset by higher WAVE earnings, the impact of favorable AUV and a reduction in manufacturing costs.
Architectural Specialties
| (Dollar amounts in millions) | For the Three Months Ended March 31, | |||||||||||
| 2021 | 2020 | Change | ||||||||||
| Net sales (as reported) | $ | 63.2 | $ | 51.0 | 23.9 | % | ||||||
| Operating (loss) income (as reported) | $ | (4.9 | ) | $ | 7.5 | Unfavorable | ||||||
| Adjusted EBITDA | $ | 7 | $ | 10 | (28.9 | )% | ||||||
Net sales in Architectural Specialties increased by 24%, driven by the 2020 acquisitions of Turf Design, Moz Designs and Arktura, partially offset by a reduction in demand as a result of COVID-19.
Operating (loss) income decreased in the first quarter due to increases in acquisition related expenses and amortization expense related to the 2020 acquisitions, as well as lower sales excluding the impact of the 2020 acquisitions. Manufacturing and SG&A expenses were also higher due to additional investments in manufacturing, selling, and design capabilities.
Unallocated Corporate
Unallocated corporate operating loss was $2 million in the first quarter of 2021 and 2020.
Market Outlook and 2021 Guidance
“We continue to see market conditions steadily improve and are pleased to see the vaccination rollout across the US begin to allow more businesses to open their doors,” said Brian MacNeal, CFO of Armstrong. “Through our growth initiatives, including Healthy Spaces and kanopi, and the year-on-year benefit of our 2020 acquisitions, we are maintaining our 2021 guidance and expect to grow sales 10% to 13%, adjusted EBITDA 9% to 13%, to drive a free cash flow margin of 19% for the full fiscal year.”

Supplemental Reconciliations of GAAP to non-GAAP Results (unaudited)(Amounts in millions, except per share data)
To supplement its consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”), the Company provides additional measures of performance adjusted to exclude the impact of certain discrete expenses and income. Investors should not consider non-GAAP measures as a substitute for GAAP measures. The Company excludes certain acquisition related expenses (i.e. – changes in the fair value of earnouts, deferred compensation accruals, impact of adjustments related to the fair value of inventory and deferred revenue) for recent acquisitions. The deferred compensation accruals are for cash and stock awards that will be recorded over the vesting period, as such payments are subject to the sellers’ and employees’ continued employment with the Company. Examples of other excluded items include plant closures, restructuring charges and related costs, impairments, separation costs, environmental site expenses and related insurance recoveries, endowment level charitable contributions, and certain other gains and losses. The Company also excludes income/expense from its U.S. Retirement Income Plan (“RIP”) in the non-GAAP results as it represents the actuarial net periodic benefit credit/cost recorded. For all periods presented, the Company was not required and did not make cash contributions to the RIP based on guidelines established by the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation, nor does the Company expect to make cash contributions to the plan in 2021. Adjusted free cash flow is defined as cash from operating and investing activities, adjusted to remove the impact of cash used or proceeds received for acquisitions and divestitures, legacy environmental matters and litigation. The Company believes adjusted free cash flow is useful because it provides insight into the amount of cash that the Company generates for discretionary uses, after expenditures for capital investments and adjustments for acquisitions and divestitures. The Company uses these adjusted performance measures in managing the business, including communications with its Board of Directors and employees, and believes that they provide users of this financial information with meaningful comparisons of operating performance between current results and results in prior periods. The Company believes that these non-GAAP financial measures are appropriate to enhance understanding of its past performance, as well as prospects for its future performance. The Company also uses adjusted EBITDA and adjusted free cash flow as factors in determining at-risk compensation for senior management. These non-GAAP measures may not be defined and calculated the same as similar measures used by other companies. A reconciliation of these adjustments to the most directly comparable GAAP measures is included in this release and on the Company’s website. These non-GAAP measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the most comparable GAAP measures. Non-GAAP financial measures utilized by the Company may not be comparable to non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies.
