Amplify Snack Brands, Inc. Reports Third Quarter Fiscal 2015 Financial Results

Third Quarter Net Sales Increase 20.4% Year-Over-Year to $45.9 Million

Company Reports Third Quarter Adjusted EBITDA of $18.1 Million

Provides Full Year Fiscal 2015 Outlook

Austin, Texas – November 5, 2015 – Amplify Snack Brands, Inc. (“Amplify” or the “Company”) (NYSE: BETR) today reported financial results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015.

Three Months Ended September 30, 2015 Highlights

 

    Net sales were $45.9 million, up 20.4% year-over-year

 

    Gross margin was 55.9%

 

    GAAP net loss was $3.0 million, or a loss of $0.04 per fully diluted share

 

    Non-GAAP adjusted net income was $9.2 million, or $0.12 per fully diluted share

 

    Adjusted EBITDA increased 9.7% year-over-year to $18.1 million, representing 39.4% of net sales

Nine Months Ended September 30, 2015 Highlights

 

    Net sales were $137.5 million, up 38.5% year-over-year

 

    Gross margin was 55.8%

 

    GAAP net income was $5.5 million, or $0.07 per fully diluted share

 

    Non-GAAP adjusted net income was $28.1 million, or $0.38 per fully diluted share

 

    Adjusted EBITDA increased 24.3% year-over-year to $56.1 million, representing 40.8% of net sales

“We are pleased to report strong top and bottom line financial results,” said Thomas Ennis, Amplify’s President and Chief Executive Officer. “Our financial performance in the quarter benefitted from solid velocity growth and increased distribution, as the SkinnyPop brand continued to gain market share. In addition, industry trends remain very encouraging, as consumers continue to seek healthier snacking options. Looking ahead, we believe that we are well positioned to generate increased business momentum and deliver record fiscal 2015 financial results.”

Three Months Ended September 30, 2015

Net sales increased 20.4% to $45.9 million compared to $38.1 million in the three months ended September 30, 2014. The increase in net sales reflects increased distribution and strong brand velocity across sales channels. The Company’s growth rate was adversely impacted by the strategic decision to not run a large promotion in the third quarter of 2015 that we ran in the same quarter of 2014.

Gross profit was $25.7 million, or 55.9% of net sales, compared to $21.2 million, or 55.5% of net sales for the three months ended September 30, 2014. Gross margin for the three months ended September 30, 2015 benefitted from higher net price realization and improved rates on materials and ingredients, partially offset by a product mix shift as the Company expanded into higher cost product formats and flavors. The Company also incurred additional transporation costs from geographic and channel expansion.

Selling and marketing and general and administrative expenses (“SG&A”) were $21.2 million, or 46.2% of net sales, compared to pro forma SG&A of $11.4 million, or 29.9% of net sales, in the three months

ended September 30, 2014. Adjusted SG&A, which is a non-GAAP financial measure used by the Company that makes certain adjustments to SG&A calculated under GAAP, was $7.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2015, or 16.5% of net sales, compared to $5.1 million, or 13.4% of net sales, in the three months ended September 30, 2014. The increase in Adjusted SG&A was primarily driven by infrastructure investments in personnel and systems, increased consumer marketing activities to drive brand awareness and trial, and new costs associated with operating as a public company.

Adjusted EBITDA, which is a non-GAAP financial measure used by the Company that makes certain adjustments to net income (loss) calculated under GAAP, increased 9.7% to $18.1 million from $16.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2014, primarily reflecting higher net sales and gross profit, partially offset by higher Adjusted SG&A. As a percentage of net sales, Adjusted EBITDA for the three months ended September 30, 2015 was 39.4%, compared to 43.3% for the three months ended September 30, 2014. The decrease in Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of net sales is primarily due to increased investments in Adjusted SG&A.

GAAP net loss was $3.0 million, or a loss of $0.04 per fully diluted share, compared to pro forma net income of $4.3 million, or $0.06 per fully diluted share, for the three months ended September 30, 2014. The decrease in earnings for the comparable three month periods was primarily due to the incurrence of costs related to our initial public offering which closed in August 2015. Adjusted net income, which is a non-GAAP financial measure used by the Company that makes certain adjustments to net income (loss) calculated under GAAP, was $9.2 million, or $0.12 per fully diluted share, compared to pro forma adjusted net income of $8.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2014, or $0.12 per fully diluted share.

Nine Months Ended September 30, 2015

Net sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 increased 38.5% to $137.5 million compared to $99.3 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2014. Year-to-date net sales growth was driven primarily by new distribution across sales channels and by increases in brand level velocity.

Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure, increased 24.3% to $56.1 million from $45.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2014. Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of net sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 was 40.8%, compared to 45.5% for the nine months ended September 30, 2014.

GAAP net income was $5.5 million, or $0.07 per fully diluted share, compared to pro forma net income of $11.3 million, or $0.17 per fully diluted share, for the nine months ended September 30, 2014. The decrease in earnings for the comparable nine month periods was primarily due to the incurrence of costs related to our initial public offering which closed in August 2015. Adjusted net income, a non-GAAP financial measure, was $28.1 million, or $0.38 per fully diluted share, compared to pro forma adjusted net income of $22.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2014, or $0.33 per fully diluted share.

Balance Sheet and Cash Flow

As of September 30, 2015, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $6.9 million and net availability under its revolving line of credit of $23.5 million. Net debt, which the Company defines as outstanding indebtedness less cash and cash equivalents, was $198.2 million as of September 30, 2015,

   Exhibit 99.1

 

compared to $194.4 million as of December 31, 2014. Amplify’s leverage ratio as calculated under the Company’s credit facility was reduced to 2.8x trailing twelve month EBITDA at September 30, 2015, down from 3.0x at June 30, 2015.

Outlook

For full year 2015 the Company expects to report:

 

    Net sales of $180.0 million to $182.0 million, an increase of 36.0% to 37.5%, compared to 2014

 

    Adjusted EBITDA of $71.7 million to $72.5 million, an increase of 22.5% to 23.8% compared to 2014.

Forward-Looking Statements

This press release contains certain forward-looking statements regarding our performance, including in the section titled “Outlook.” Forward-looking statements generally relate to future events or our future financial or operating performance. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements because they contain words such as “may”, “will”, “should”, “expects”, “plans”, “anticipates”, “could”, “intends”, “target”, “projects”, “contemplates”, “believes”, “estimates”, “predicts”, “potential” or “continue” or the negative of these words or other similar terms or expressions that concern our expectations, strategy, plans or intentions. Forward-looking statements are subject to known and unknown risks and uncertainties and are based on potentially inaccurate assumptions that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expected or implied by the forward-looking statements. If any such risks or uncertainties materialize or if any of the assumptions prove incorrect, our results could differ materially from the results expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements we make.

The important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in any forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, the following: (i) changes in consumer preferences and discretionary spending may have a material adverse effect on our brand loyalty, net sales, results of

   Exhibit 99.1

 

operations and financial condition, (ii) we rely on sales to a limited number of distributors and retailers for the substantial majority of our net sales, and the loss of one or more such distributors or retailers may harm our business, and (iii) sales of a limited number of SkinnyPop products and flavors contributed all of our historical profitability and cash flow and a reduction in the sale of our SkinnyPop products would have a material adverse effect on our ability to remain profitable and achieve future growth.

Further information on these and other factors that could affect our financial results and the forward-looking statements in this press release are included in our final prospectus related to our initial public offering filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on August 5, 2015 and in other filings we will make with the SEC from time to time, particularly under the caption Risk Factors.

You should not place undue reliance upon forward-looking statements as predictions of future events. Amplify has based the forward-looking statements contained in this press release on its current expectations and projections about future events and trends that it believes may affect its business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects. The forward-looking statements made in this press release relate only to events as of the date on which the statements are made. Amplify undertakes no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as may be required by law.

Pro Forma Financials and Non-GAAP Measures

In order to aid understanding of Amplify’s business performance, it has presented results in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) and has also presented Adjusted SG&A, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted net income and the corresponding earnings per share, which are non-GAAP measures that are explained and reconciled to the comparable GAAP measures in the tables included in this release. In addition, in comparing its results to the comparable periods of 2014, Amplify has presented financial results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014 giving pro forma effect to the acquisition of Amplify’s predecessor in July 2014 (the “Sponsor Acquisition”), the incurrence of $50.0 million of borrowings under Amplify’s term loan under its credit agreement and the subsequent distribution of $59.8 million Amplify paid to its stockholder in December 2014 (the “December 2014 Special Dividend”) and the incurrence of $22.5 million of borrowings under Amplify’s term loan and revolving credit loan under its credit agreement and the subsequent distribution of $22.3 million Amplify paid to its stockholder in May 2015 (the “May 2015 Special Dividend”), as if such transactions had occurred on January 1, 2014. Unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, giving effect to the Sponsor Acquisition, the December 2014 Special Dividend and the May 2015 Special Dividend, are included in the tables in this release.

Management believes that Adjusted SG&A, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted net income and the corresponding earnings per share, which are non-GAAP measurements, are meaningful to investors because they provide a view of the Company with respect to ongoing operating results. Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted net income are not and should not be considered alternatives to net loss or any other figure calculated in accordance with GAAP, or as an indicator of operating performance. The Company’s calculation of Adjusted SG&A, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted net income and the corresponding earnings per share may differ from methods used by other companies. Management believes that these non-GAAP measurements are important to help gain an understanding of the Company’s overall

   Exhibit 99.1

 

operating results in the periods presented. Such non-GAAP measurements are not recognized in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and should not be viewed as an alternative to GAAP measures of performance. We have not reconciled our expected Adjusted EBITDA to net income under “Outlook” because we have not finalized our calculations of several factors necessary to provide the reconciliation, including net income, interest expense and income tax expense. In addition, certain items that impact net income and other reconciling metrics are out of our control and/or cannot be reasonably predicted at this time.
