Generac Reports First Quarter 2019 Results
Strong end market fundamentals drive increased 2019 outlook;
Recent acquisitions accelerate entry into rapidly developing energy management and storage market
WAUKESHA, Wis., May 02, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Generac Holdings Inc. (NYSE: GNRC) (“Generac” or the “Company”), a leading global designer and manufacturer of power generation equipment and other power products, today reported financial results for its first quarter ended March 31, 2019.
First Quarter 2019 Highlights
- Net sales increased 17.6% to $470.4 million during the first quarter of 2019 as compared to $400.1 million in the prior-year first quarter. Core sales growth, which excludes both the impact of acquisitions and foreign currency, was approximately 15%.
- Residential product sales increased 14.4% to $217.8 million as compared to $190.5 million last year.
- Commercial & Industrial (“C&I”) product sales increased 19.4% to $209.1 million as compared to $175.1 million in the prior year, with core sales growth of approximately 17%.
- Net income attributable to the Company during the first quarter was $44.9 million, or $0.76 per share, as compared to $33.6 million, or $0.42 per share, for the same period of 2018.
- Adjusted net income attributable to the Company, as defined in the accompanying reconciliation schedules, was $56.5 million, or $0.91 per share, as compared to $46.1 million, or $0.74 per share, in the first quarter of 2018.
- Adjusted EBITDA before deducting for noncontrolling interests, as defined in the accompanying reconciliation schedules, was $87.1 million, or 18.5% of net sales, as compared to $71.8 million, or 17.9% of net sales, in the prior year.
- Cash flow from operations was $14.6 million as compared to $29.0 million in the prior year quarter. Free cash flow, as defined in the accompanying reconciliation schedules, was $(0.6) million as compared to $23.3 million in the first quarter of 2018. Higher operating earnings in the current year quarter were more than offset by increased incentive compensation payments related to fiscal 2018 performance and higher levels of capital expenditures.
- As previously announced on March 13, 2019, the Company closed on the acquisition of Neurio Technology. Founded in 2005 and headquartered in Vancouver, British Columbia, Neurio is a leading energy data company focused on monitoring technology and sophisticated analytics to optimize energy use within a home or business. Neurio’s hardware and software solutions equip users with the intelligence to manage and control electrical loads, solar systems and batteries to optimize energy consumption and increase savings.
- Also, as previously announced on April 29, 2019, the Company closed on the acquisition of Pika Energy. Founded in 2010 and located near Portland, Maine, Pika Energy develops and manufactures advanced power electronics, software and controls for smart energy storage and management. Pika’s innovative home energy storage solutions make them one of the leaders in the rapidly growing market for energy storage technology.
“Our outstanding first quarter results reflect continued end market strength as we entered 2019,” said Aaron Jagdfeld, President and Chief Executive Officer. “Both residential and C&I generator activity remained strong during the quarter with spending on backup power for telecom applications in particular coming in ahead of expectations as wireless carriers continue to invest in hardening their networks.”
Jagdfeld continued, “In addition to our impressive start to the year, with our recent acquisitions of Neurio and Pika, we have accelerated our entry into the global market for energy management and storage, which we believe to be a multi-billion dollar opportunity as this market matures. By combining Generac’s strong distribution, brand, and market creation capabilities with Neurio’s valuable energy monitoring technologies and Pika’s expertise in energy storage, we believe we are well positioned to offer a new, differentiated line of products and solutions to help homeowners and business owners reduce their overall energy costs.”
Additional First Quarter 2019 Consolidated Highlights
Gross profit margin was 34.5% compared to 35.5% in the prior-year first quarter. Favorable sales mix and pricing actions were more than offset by realization of higher input costs, including regulatory tariffs, logistics and labor costs, as well as unfavorable commodity fluctuations. Operating expenses increased $5.4 million, or 6.3%, as compared to the first quarter of 2018. The increase was primarily driven by higher variable costs given the strong core sales volumes, an increase in employee headcount related to strategic initiatives, and recurring operating expenses from recent acquisitions.
Provision for income taxes for the current year quarter was $15.0 million, or an effective tax rate of 24.7%, as compared to $11.4 million, or a 25.3% effective tax rate, for the prior year.
On January 1, 2019, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Update 2016-02, Leases. As a result of this new lease accounting standard, the Company was required to recognize approximately $40 million of right-of-use assets and lease liabilities related to operating leases on the condensed consolidated balance sheet.
Business Segment Results
Domestic Segment
Domestic segment sales increased 18.7% to $359.2 million as compared to $302.7 million in the prior-year quarter. The current-year quarter experienced robust growth in shipments of home standby generators given continued strong end market conditions as a result of increased power outage severity in recent years. In addition, C&I stationary generator shipments were also strong during the quarter, particularly for telecom and healthcare applications. The overall Domestic segment growth was partially offset by lower shipments of portable generators as the prior year quarter benefitted from elevated outage activity in the Northeast.
Adjusted EBITDA for the segment was $81.0 million, or 22.5% of net sales, as compared to $65.5 million in the prior year, or 21.6% of net sales. Favorable sales mix, pricing initiatives and fixed operating cost leverage were partially offset by the aforementioned higher input costs, as well as increased employee costs.
International Segment
International segment sales increased 14.1% to $111.1 million as compared to $97.4 million in the prior-year quarter. Core sales growth, which excludes the impact of the Selmec and Captiva acquisitions, as well as the unfavorable impact of currency, was approximately 6%. This core sales increase was primarily driven by continued market share gains and further execution of synergies, particularly in Europe, Middle East, China, and Brazil.
Adjusted EBITDA for the segment, before deducting for noncontrolling interests, was $6.2 million, or 5.5% of net sales, as compared to $6.3 million, or 6.5% of net sales, in the prior year. Although unfavorable regional sales mix and higher input costs drove this modest year over year decline, margins for the segment have improved by 130 basis points over the last twelve months.
Updated 2019 Outlook The Company is increasing its prior guidance for revenue growth for full-year 2019, reflecting the stronger demand for Residential and C&I products, as well as the addition of the Neurio and Pika acquisitions. Depending on the severity of power outages during the year, full-year net sales are expected to grow by approximately 5 to 9%, which is an increase from the 3 to 7% growth previously expected. Core sales growth for the full year is expected to be approximately 3 to 7%, which is an increase from the 2 to 6% core growth previously expected. Seasonally, first half net sales are now expected to grow 12 to 13% on an as-reported basis, with growth in the second half expected to be approximately flat to up mid-single-digits, depending on the severity of power outages.
Net income margins, before deducting for noncontrolling interests, are now expected to be between 10.5 to 11.5% for the full-year 2019. Adjusted EBITDA margins, also before deducting for noncontrolling interests, are now expected to be between 19.5 to 20.5% for the year, depending on the severity of power outages during the year. This modest decline in margin outlook is primarily driven by the Neurio and Pika acquisitions, which include strategic investments in product development and infrastructure to build out and penetrate the new market opportunities around energy management and storage.
Operating and free cash flow generation is still expected to be strong, with the conversion of adjusted net income to free cash flow expected to be over 90%. Conference Call and Webcast

Non-GAAP Financial Metrics
Core Sales
The Company references core sales to further supplement Generac's condensed consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Core sales excludes the impact of acquisitions and fluctuations in foreign currency translation. Management believes that core sales facilitates easier and more meaningful comparison of net sales performance with prior and future periods.
Adjusted EBITDA
The computation of adjusted EBITDA attributable to the Company is based on the definition of EBITDA contained in Generac's credit agreement dated as of May 31, 2013, as amended. To supplement the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP, Generac provides a summary to show the computation of adjusted EBITDA, which excludes the impact of noncontrolling interests, taking into account certain charges and gains that were recognized during the periods presented.
Adjusted Net Income
To further supplement Generac's condensed consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP, the Company provides a summary to show the computation of adjusted net income attributable to the Company. Adjusted net income attributable to the Company is defined as net income before noncontrolling interests and provision for income taxes adjusted for the following items: cash income tax expense, amortization of intangible assets, amortization of deferred financing costs and original issue discount related to the Company's debt, intangible impairment charges, certain transaction costs and other purchase accounting adjustments, losses on extinguishment of debt, business optimization expenses, certain other non-cash gains and losses, and adjusted net income attributable to non-controlling interests.
Free Cash Flow
In addition, we reference free cash flow to further supplement Generac's condensed consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Free cash flow is defined as net cash provided by operating activities, plus proceeds from beneficial interests in securitization transactions, less expenditures for property and equipment, and is intended to be a measure of operational cash flow taking into account additional capital expenditure investment into the business.
The presentation of this additional information is not meant to be considered in isolation of, or as a substitute for, results prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Please see the accompanying Reconciliation Schedules and our SEC filings for additional discussion of the basis for Generac's reporting of Non-GAAP financial measures, which includes why the Company believes these measures provide useful information to investors and the additional purposes for which management uses the non-GAAP financial information.
