Prestige Brands Holdings, Inc. Reports Fiscal 2019 First Quarter Results; Announces Name Change to Prestige Consumer Healthcare, Inc.

August 2, 2018 6:20 AM

TARRYTOWN, N.Y., Aug. 02, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Prestige Brands Holdings, Inc. (NYSE: PBH) today reported financial results for its first quarter ended June 30, 2018. In addition, the Company announced its planned name change to Prestige Consumer Healthcare, Inc. to reflect its expanding consumer healthcare business and the evolution of its portfolio. The Company will continue to trade under the ticker symbol “PBH”.

“Our first quarter performance delivered a solid start to the year, with both financial and operating metrics aligned with our expectations. We are also pleased with the recent divestiture of our Household Cleaning segment, which enables our Company to focus entirely on our strong consumer healthcare brands that are well positioned for long-term success,” said Ron Lombardi, Chief Executive Officer of Prestige Brands.

First Fiscal Quarter Ended June 30, 2018
Reported revenues in the first quarter of fiscal 2019 decreased 1.0% to $254.0 million, compared to $256.6 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2018. Revenues for the quarter were driven by continued strong consumption levels across the Company’s core brands, but were offset by the previously announced change in accounting policies around revenue recognition and the timing of related expenses as well as timing related to the launch of new packaging for the Company’s BC and Goody’s brands.

Reported gross profit margin in the first quarter fiscal 2019 was 55.4%, compared to 55.9% for the first quarter of fiscal 2018. Sequentially, gross margin improved from 55.2% reported in fourth quarter fiscal 2018 as the Company continues to make progress in its freight and warehousing initiatives.

Reported net income for the first quarter of fiscal 2019 totaled $34.5 million versus the prior year comparable quarter’s net income of $33.8 million. Diluted earnings per share were $0.65 for the first quarter of fiscal 2019 compared to $0.63 diluted earnings per share in the prior year comparable period. Non-GAAP adjusted net income for the first quarter of fiscal 2019 was $35.8 million, an increase of 1.0% over the prior year period’s adjusted net income of $35.5 million. Non-GAAP adjusted earnings per share were $0.68 per share for the first quarter of fiscal 2019 compared to $0.66 per share in the prior year comparable period.

Adjustments to net income in the first quarter of fiscal 2019 and fiscal 2018 include integration, transition, purchase accounting, legal and various other costs associated with acquisitions and divestitures, and the related income tax effects of the adjustments.

Free Cash Flow and Balance Sheet
The Company's net cash provided by operating activities for the first fiscal quarter of 2019 increased to $55.9 million from $54.1 million during the same period a year earlier. Non-GAAP adjusted free cash flow for the first fiscal quarter of 2019 was $53.6 million, compared to $56.5 million in the prior year comparable quarter.

In the first quarter fiscal 2019, the Company completed its previously announced share repurchase authorization, repurchasing approximately 1.4 million shares at a total investment of $50.0 million. The Company's net debt position as of June 30, 2018 was approximately $2.0 billion, effectively flat versus the prior quarter as first quarter 2019 cash generation went towards the share repurchase. At June 30, 2018 the Company's covenant-defined leverage ratio was approximately 5.4x.

Segment Review
North American OTC Healthcare: Segment revenues totaled $214.8 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2019, compared to the prior year comparable quarter's revenues of $215.8 million. The first quarter fiscal 2019 result was favorably impacted by increased consumption among the majority of core OTC brands, but offset by the impact of a change in accounting policies surrounding revenue recognition and variability around the timing of BC and Goody’s brands shipments due to the launch of new packaging.

International OTC Healthcare: Segment fiscal first quarter 2019 revenues totaled $19.4 million versus $20.9 million reported in the prior year comparable period. The change compared to the prior year was largely due to timing differences in distributor orders and shipments.

Household Cleaning: Segment revenues totaled $19.8 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2019 compared with first quarter fiscal 2018 revenues of $19.9 million, a decrease of 0.2%. As previously announced, the Company closed the sale of its Household Cleaning segment for $69.0 million on July 2, 2018. The company used net proceeds of approximately $50 million from the divestiture to pay down debt.

Commentary and Outlook for Fiscal 2019
Ron Lombardi, CEO, stated, “We are pleased with our start to fiscal 2019, including continued improvement against freight and warehousing costs experienced in second half fiscal 2018, continued strong cash generation and a strong revenue performance despite unique near-term timing factors like the launch of BC & Goody’s restaged packaging. We remain confident in our business performance as well as consumption trends and are well positioned for the remainder of the year.”

“Our updated fiscal 2019 outlook reflects the divestiture of Household Cleaning but we are otherwise affirming our prior expectations for revenues, profitability and cash flow. Our recent Household Cleaning divestiture is consistent with our strategic evolution and value creation for shareholders. Following the divestiture, we are an entirely consumer healthcare-focused company. Our consumer healthcare platform includes a strong and diverse portfolio of brands well positioned for continued long-term growth. We remain acutely focused on execution of our three-pillar strategy of brand-building, maintaining a strong financial profile, and capital allocation alternatives. We look forward to continuing to use this approach to drive shareholder value over time and continue to grow our consumer healthcare platform,” he concluded.

Fiscal 2019 Full-Year Outlook
Revenue$985 to $995 million
Organic Growth Percentage*0.5% to 1.5%
Adjusted E.P.S.*$2.84 to $2.92
Adjusted Free Cash Flow*$205 million or more

Corporate Name Change
Ron Lombardi, Chief Executive Officer, stated “The corporate name change is a reflection of the strategic evolution the Company has made over the past decade to grow and focus the portfolio on consumer healthcare products. The new name, Prestige Consumer Healthcare, more accurately reflects our business model and long-term strategic plan to be the market leader in many areas of consumer healthcare. We are now fully concentrating our brand-building efforts around our leading consumer health brands to support long-term organic growth.”

Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
This news release contains "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the federal securities laws that are intended to qualify for the Safe Harbor from liability established by the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. "Forward-looking statements" generally can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as "assumptions," "target," "guidance," “strategy,” "outlook," "plans," "projection," "may," "will," "would," "expect," "intend," "estimate," "anticipate," "believe”, "potential," or "continue" (or the negative or other derivatives of each of these terms) or similar terminology. The "forward-looking statements" include, without limitation, statements regarding the Company's expectations regarding future operating results including revenues, earnings per share and free cash flow, the Company’s ability to win market share and increase consumption, the Company's ability to improve freight and warehousing costs, and the Company’s ability to position itself for long-term success and growth. These statements are based on management's estimates and assumptions with respect to future events and financial performance and are believed to be reasonable, though are inherently uncertain and difficult to predict. Actual results could differ materially from those expected as a result of a variety of factors, including the impact of the Company’s advertising and promotional and new product development initiatives, customer inventory management initiatives, general economic and business conditions, fluctuating foreign exchange rates, consumer trends, competitive pressures, and the ability of the Company’s third party manufacturers and logistics providers and suppliers to meet demand for its products and to reduce costs. A discussion of other factors that could cause results to vary is included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2018 and the Company's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2018 and other periodic reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

About Non-GAAP Financial Measures

We have pursued various strategic initiatives and completed a number of acquisitions in recent years that have resulted in revenues that would not have otherwise been recognized. The frequency and the amount of such revenues vary significantly based on the size, timing and complexity of the transaction. In addition to financial results reported in accordance with GAAP, we disclose certain Non-GAAP financial measures ("NGFMs"), including, but not limited to, Non-GAAP Organic Revenues, Non-GAAP Organic Revenue Growth Percentage, Non-GAAP Adjusted Gross Margin, Non-GAAP Adjusted Gross Margin Percentage, Non-GAAP Adjusted Advertising and Promotion Expense, Non-GAAP Adjusted Advertising and Promotion Expense Percentage, Non-GAAP Adjusted General and Administrative Expense, Non-GAAP Adjusted General and Administrative Expense Percentage, Non-GAAP EBITDA, Non-GAAP EBITDA Margin, Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA, Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Non-GAAP Adjusted Net Income, Non-GAAP Adjusted EPS, Non-GAAP Free Cash Flow, Non-GAAP Adjusted Free Cash Flow and Net Debt. We use these NGFMs internally, along with GAAP information, in evaluating our operating performance and in making financial and operational decisions. We believe that the presentation of these NGFMs provides investors with greater transparency, and provides a more complete understanding of our business than could be obtained absent these disclosures, because the supplemental data relating to our financial condition and results of operations provides additional ways to view our operation when considered with both our GAAP results and the reconciliations below. In addition, we believe that the presentation of each of these NGFMs is useful to investors for period-to-period comparisons of results in assessing shareholder value, and we use these NGFMs internally to evaluate the performance of our personnel and also to evaluate our operating performance and compare our performance to that of our competitors.

These NGFMs are not in accordance with GAAP, should not be considered as a measure of profitability or liquidity, and may not be directly comparable to similarly titled NGFMs reported by other companies. These NGFMs have limitations and they should not be considered in isolation from or as an alternative to their most closely related GAAP measures reconciled below. Investors should not rely on any single financial measure when evaluating our business. We recommend investors review the GAAP financial measures included in this earnings release. When viewed in conjunction with our GAAP results and the reconciliations below, we believe these NGFMs provide greater transparency and a more complete understanding of factors affecting our business than GAAP measures alone.

NGFMs Defined

We define our NGFMs presented herein as follows:

The following tables set forth the reconciliations of each of our NGFMs to their most directly comparable financial measures presented in accordance with GAAP.
