TARRYTOWN, N.Y., Feb. 06, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Prestige Consumer Healthcare Inc. (NYSE: PBH) today reported financial results for its third quarter and year-to-date fiscal 2020 ended December 31, 2019.
“Our third quarter and year to-date results reflect the benefits of our effective and proven three-pillar strategy. Positive organic top-line trends benefitted from continued strong consumption across our portfolio. We continue to generate strong cash flows and a consistent EBITDA margin profile, which allowed us to further reduce debt in Q3 and opportunistically repurchase shares year-to-date. Execution of our brand-building playbook combined with our disciplined and opportunistic capital deployment strategy are enabling us to raise our EPS outlook for full-year fiscal 2020,” said Ron Lombardi, Chief Executive Officer of Prestige Consumer Healthcare.
Third Fiscal Quarter Ended December 31, 2019
Reported revenues in the third quarter of fiscal 2020 were $241.6 million compared to $241.4 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2019. Revenues were up 0.5% on an organic basis, which excludes the effect of foreign currency. The revenue performance for the quarter was driven by a strong international segment performance as well as consumption gains in the Company’s core brand portfolio domestically, partially offset by continued retailer inventory reductions.
Reported gross profit margin in the third quarter fiscal 2020 was 56.9% compared to 57.7% in the prior year comparable period. Excluding transition costs associated with a new logistics provider and location, adjusted gross profit margin was 58.0% in third quarter fiscal 2020, a slight increase versus the prior year third quarter.
Reported net income for the third quarter of fiscal 2020 totaled $38.1 million, and $41.2 million in net income on a non-GAAP adjusted basis, versus the prior year comparable period net income of $38.2 million. Diluted earnings per share were $0.75 for the third quarter fiscal 2020, and $0.81 after one-time adjustments, compared to $0.73 per share in the prior year comparable period.
Adjustments to net income in the third quarter of fiscal 2020 included costs associated with a new logistics provider and location as well as a loss on extinguishment of debt, and the related income tax effects of each adjustment.
First Nine Months of Fiscal 2020 Ended December 31, 2019
Reported revenues for the first nine months of fiscal 2020 were $711.8 million compared to $734.8 million in the first nine months of fiscal 2019. Revenues were up slightly on an organic basis, which excludes the effect of foreign currency and the divestiture of the non-core Household Cleaning segment in the prior year. The revenue performance for the first nine months of fiscal 2020 was driven by strong international segment growth as well as consumption gains in the Company’s core brand portfolio domestically, partially offset by retailer inventory reductions.
Reported gross profit margin in the first nine months of fiscal 2020 was 57.4%, or 57.9% after excluding the one-time effects of the company’s transition to a new logistics provider and location, and compared to 56.8% for the first nine months of fiscal 2019.
Reported net income for the first nine months of fiscal 2020 totaled $105.2 million versus the prior year comparable period net income of $103.5 million. Diluted earnings per share were $2.05 for the first nine months of fiscal 2020, compared to $1.97 per share in the prior year comparable period. Non-GAAP adjusted net income for the first nine months of fiscal 2020 was $109.5 million, versus the prior year comparable period’s adjusted net income of $108.2 million. Non-GAAP adjusted earnings per share were $2.14 per share for the first nine months of fiscal 2020, compared to $2.06 per share in the first nine months of fiscal 2019.
Adjustments to net income in the first nine months of fiscal 2020 included costs associated with a new logistics provider and location as well as a loss on extinguishment of debt, and the related income tax effects of the adjustments. Adjustments to net income in the first nine months of fiscal 2019 included legal and various other costs and a gain associated with the Household Cleaning segment divestiture and the related income tax, as well as accelerated amortization of debt origination costs.
Free Cash Flow and Balance Sheet
The Company's net cash provided by operating activities for the third quarter fiscal 2020 increased to $58.0 million from $43.3 million during the same period a year earlier. Non-GAAP free cash flow for the third quarter fiscal 2020 was $56.3, million compared to $57.2 million in the prior year comparable period. For the first nine months of fiscal 2020 net cash provided by operating activities was $161.0 million compared to $138.4 million during the same period a year earlier. Non-GAAP free cash flow for the first nine months of fiscal 2020 was $154.3 million compared to $154.9 million in the prior year comparable period.
In fiscal 2020 year-to-date, the Company primarily used its cash flow to focus on debt reduction. The Company also fully executed an authorized $50 million share repurchase program during the first two fiscal quarters of 2020.
During the third quarter 2020 the Company completed a $400 million issuance of new senior notes which replaced the same amount of senior notes previously due in fiscal 2022. The new notes extend the maturity to fiscal 2028 at an approximate $1 million annual savings.
The Company's net debt position as of December 31, 2019 was approximately $1.7 billion, compared to approximately $1.8 billion at December 31, 2018. At the end of the third quarter fiscal 2020 the Company's covenant-defined leverage ratio was 4.9x.
Segment Review
North American OTC Healthcare: Segment revenues totaled $214.9 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2020, compared to the prior year comparable quarter's revenues of $216.8 million. The third quarter fiscal 2020 revenue performance was attributable to increased consumption for the Company’s core OTC brands which was more than offset by retailer inventory reductions.
For the first nine months of the current fiscal year, reported revenues for the North American OTC Healthcare segment were $639.6 million compared to $647.5 million in the prior year comparable period. The first nine months of fiscal year 2020 were favorably impacted by increased consumption for the Company’s brand portfolio, but more than offset by inventory reductions at certain key retailers.
International OTC Healthcare: Segment fiscal third quarter 2020 revenues totaled $26.7 million, an approximate 8% increase versus $24.6 million reported in the prior year comparable period. Revenues versus the prior year third quarter benefitted from consumption and shipment growth in Australia and Asia-Pacific, partially offset by unfavorable foreign currency of approximately $1 million.
For the first nine months of the current fiscal year, reported revenues for the International OTC Healthcare segment were $72.2 million versus the prior year’s comparable period’s revenues of $67.4 million, attributable to consumption and shipment growth in the Asia-Pacific region, including the Company’s brand portfolio in Australia and Southeast Asia. Growth was partially offset by unfavorable foreign currency exchange rates of approximately $3 million.
Household Cleaning: The Company sold its Household Cleaning segment on July 2, 2018 and used net proceeds from the divestiture to pay down debt. For the first quarter of fiscal 2019, the Household Cleaning segment generated $19.8 million in revenues, with no reported revenue in subsequent quarters.
Commentary and Outlook for Fiscal 2020
Ron Lombardi, CEO, stated, “We are pleased with our third quarter results on a number of fronts. First, we experienced a continuation of solid consumption trends driven by our brand-building investment strategy. Second, we are more than halfway through the transition to a new third-party logistics provider and location which is proceeding as planned. Finally, we continue to generate strong cash flows from our leading financial profile, which we used for debt reduction in Q3.”
Mr. Lombardi continued, “Our strong operating results and disciplined use of cash flow during the first nine months of the fiscal year has enabled us to raise our EPS outlook for full-year fiscal 2020. As we look ahead to fiscal 2021, we anticipate continuing to benefit from our diversified portfolio of leading brands which has us well positioned in a continued challenging retailer environment. We expect our robust financial profile, enhanced by our disciplined capital deployment strategy, to continue to create value for our stakeholders. These attributes and our year-to-date performance keep us well positioned to capitalize on our long-term growth prospects,” Mr. Lombardi concluded.

About Non-GAAP Financial Measures
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 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:
- Non-GAAP Organic Revenues: GAAP Total Revenues excluding revenues associated with divestiture, allocated cost that remain after divestiture and impact of foreign currency exchange rates in the periods presented.
- Non-GAAP Organic Revenue Growth Percentage: Calculated as the change in Non-GAAP Organic Revenues from prior year divided by prior year Non-GAAP Organic Revenues.
- Non-GAAP Adjusted Gross Margin: GAAP Gross Profit minus certain transition and other costs associated with new warehouse and divestiture.
- Non-GAAP Adjusted Gross Margin Percentage: Calculated as Non-GAAP Adjusted Gross Margin divided by GAAP Total Revenues.
- Non-GAAP Adjusted General and Administrative Expense: GAAP General and Administrative expenses minus certain transition and divestiture-related costs.
- Non-GAAP Adjusted General and Administrative Expense Percentage: Calculated as Non-GAAP Adjusted General and Administrative expense divided by GAAP Total Revenues.
- Non-GAAP EBITDA: GAAP Net Income (Loss) before net interest expense (income), income taxes provision (benefit), and depreciation and amortization.
- Non-GAAP EBITDA Margin: Calculated as Non-GAAP EBITDA divided by GAAP Total Revenues.
- Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA: Non-GAAP EBITDA before certain transition, other costs associated with new warehouse and divestiture, and loss on extinguishment of debt.
- Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA Margin: Calculated as Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA divided by GAAP Total Revenues.
- Non-GAAP Adjusted Net Income: GAAP Net Income (Loss) before certain transition, other costs associated with new warehouse and divestiture, and loss on extinguishment of debt.
- Non-GAAP Adjusted EPS: Calculated as Non-GAAP Adjusted Net Income, divided by the weighted average number of common and potential common shares outstanding during the period.
- Non-GAAP Free Cash Flow: GAAP Net cash provided by operating activities less cash paid for capital expenditures.
- Non-GAAP Adjusted Free Cash Flow: Non-GAAP Free Cash Flow plus cash payments made for transition and other costs associated with new warehouse and divestiture.
- Net Debt: Calculated as total principal amount of debt outstanding ($1,717,000 at December 31, 2019) less cash and cash equivalents ($28,591 at December 31, 2019). Amounts in thousands.
