Generac Reports Record Quarterly and Full-Year 2019 Results
WAUKESHA, Wis., Feb. 13, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Generac Holdings Inc. (NYSE: GNRC) (“Generac” or the “Company”), a leading global designer and manufacturer of energy technology solutions and other power products, today reported financial results for its fourth quarter and full-year ended December 31, 2019.
Fourth Quarter 2019 Highlights
- Net sales increased 4.9% to $590.9 million during the fourth quarter of 2019 as compared to $563.4 million in the prior-year fourth quarter. Core sales growth, which excludes both the impact of acquisitions and foreign currency, was approximately 4%.
- Residential product sales increased 9.7% to $322.5 million as compared to $293.9 million last year, with core sales growth of approximately 7%.
- Commercial & Industrial (“C&I”) product sales decreased 2.7% to $217.1 million as compared to $223.2 million in the prior year, with core sales also declining approximately 3%.
- Net income attributable to the Company during the fourth quarter was $69.6 million, or $1.12 per share, as compared to $75.6 million, or $1.20 per share, for the same period of 2018. See accompanying reconciliation schedules for related earnings per share calculations.
- Adjusted net income attributable to the Company, as defined in the accompanying reconciliation schedules, was $96.5 million, or $1.53 per share, as compared to $88.1 million, or $1.42 per share, in the fourth quarter of 2018.
- Adjusted EBITDA before deducting for noncontrolling interests, as defined in the accompanying reconciliation schedules, was $129.1 million, or 21.9% of net sales, as compared to $126.1 million, or 22.4% of net sales, in the prior year.
- Cash flow from operations was $175.1 million as compared to $108.2 million in the prior year. Free cash flow, as defined in the accompanying reconciliation schedules, was $160.3 million as compared to $87.3 million in 2018. The increase was primarily driven by the monetization of previous working capital investments, together with lower capital expenditures compared to the prior year quarter.
- As previously announced, on December 13, 2019, the Company amended its Term Loan credit agreement, which among other things extended the maturity of the term loan from May 2023 to December 2026. In conjunction with the amendment, the Company paid down $49 million of debt on the term loan.
Full-Year 2019 Highlights
- Net sales increased 8.9% to $2.20 billion during 2019 as compared to $2.02 billion in 2018, including $41.2 million of contribution from acquisitions. Total core sales growth for the year was approximately 8%.
- Residential product sales increased 9.7% to $1.14 billion as compared to $1.04 billion last year, with core sales growth of approximately 9%.
- C&I product sales increased 6.3% to $871.6 million as compared to $820.3 million in the prior year, with core sales also increasing approximately 6%.
- Net income attributable to the Company during 2019 was $252.0 million, or $4.03 per share, as compared to $238.3 million, or $3.54 per share for 2018.
- Adjusted net income attributable to the Company was $317.8 million, or $5.06 per share, as compared to $292.2 million, or $4.70 per share, in 2018.
- Adjusted EBITDA before deducting for non-controlling interests for 2019 was $454.1 million, or 20.6% of net sales, as compared to $424.6 million, or 21.0% of net sales, last year.
- Cash flow from operations was $308.9 million as compared to $247.2 million in the prior year. Free cash flow was $250.7 million as compared to $203.6 million in 2018.
“The fourth quarter was a great finish to a very strong 2019 with record performance for both the quarter and the full-year for net sales, adjusted EBITDA and free cash flow,” said Aaron Jagdfeld, President and Chief Executive Officer. “Home standby demand was again robust during the quarter driven by California as public utility shut-offs drove a dramatic increase in interest for these products. We also made the first shipments of our new PWRcell™ energy storage system during the quarter, and the outlook for our clean energy products continues to exceed our expectations. Our full-year results for residential products were also exceptionally strong and broad-based, and we experienced similar trends with domestic C&I product shipments through our industrial distributors as the penetration of natural gas generators continues to accelerate. Additionally, shipments to our telecom national account customers for the full year increased significantly as they continue to expand and harden their networks in preparation for the impending rollout of 5G technology. We believe our 2019 performance is further evidence of the tremendous growth opportunities for Generac, and as we enter 2020 we are incredibly excited about the long-term prospects for our business.”
Additional Fourth Quarter 2019 Consolidated Highlights
Gross profit margin improved 130 basis points to 37.6% compared to 36.3% in the prior-year fourth quarter. Pricing actions and favorable sales mix, as well as lower realized commodity and foreign currency input costs, were partially offset by increased regulatory tariffs, and the unfavorable mix impact from acquisitions. Operating expenses increased $22.3 million, or 23.3%, as compared to the fourth quarter of 2018. The increase was primarily driven by higher employee costs, recurring operating expenses from recent acquisitions, additional intangible amortization and depreciation expense, as well as greater marketing and promotional spend as we continue to invest in a number of initiatives to capitalize on future growth opportunities.
Provision for income taxes for the current year quarter was $13.4 million, or an effective tax rate of 16.1%, as compared to $20.0 million, or a 20.7% effective tax rate, for the prior year. The current year quarter was favorably impacted by a year-end revaluation adjustment related to a reduction in the state income tax rate. For the full year, the effective tax rate for 2019 was 21.1% compared to 22.5% in the prior year.
During the fourth quarter of 2019, the Company completed the termination of its domestic pension plan, which did not result in a reduction of benefits to plan participants. This resulted in pre-tax settlement charges of $10.9 million during the quarter, or $0.17 per share.
Business Segment Results
Domestic Segment
Domestic segment sales increased 7.7% to $470.1 million as compared to $436.3 million in the prior year quarter. Core sales growth, which excludes the impact of the Neurio and Pika acquisitions, was approximately 6%. The current year quarter experienced strong growth in shipments of home standby generators due to increased outage activity across the U.S. and Canada, which included public safety power shut-offs in California. In addition, C&I stationary generator shipments were also strong during the quarter and broad-based through the Company’s North American distributor channel. The overall Domestic segment growth was partially offset by lower shipments of C&I products to national telecom and rental account customers.
Adjusted EBITDA for the segment was $122.9 million, or 26.1% of net sales, as compared to $116.3 million in the prior year, or 26.7% of net sales. Pricing initiatives, favorable sales mix, and improved commodity and currency input costs were more than offset by the aforementioned regulatory tariffs and higher operating expense investments.
International Segment
International segment sales decreased 4.9% to $120.9 million as compared to $127.1 million in the prior year quarter. Core sales, which excludes the unfavorable impact of currency and the impact of the Captiva acquisition, declined approximately 4% compared to the prior year as slower economic growth and geopolitical headwinds caused softness in certain key regions of the world in which we operate.
Adjusted EBITDA for the segment, before deducting for noncontrolling interests, was $6.2 million, or 5.2% of net sales, as compared to $9.7 million, or 7.7% of net sales, in the prior year. Decreased operating leverage on the lower sales volumes was the primary contributor to the margin decline.
2020 Outlook The Company is initiating guidance for 2020 with net sales expected to increase between 6 to 8% as compared to the prior year on an as-reported basis, and 5 to 7% on a core basis. This guidance assumes a level of power outages in line with the longer-term baseline average, but includes the benefit of one significant power shut-off event in California. Should there be a major event, such as a landed hurricane, along with additional public safety power shut-offs in California, we could expect approximately 3 to 5% of incremental revenue growth on top of the baseline guidance, resulting in an upside case as-reported sales growth of 9 to 13%.
Net income margin, before deducting for non-controlling interests, is expected to be approximately 11% for the full-year 2020, with corresponding adjusted EBITDA margin expected to be approximately 20.0%. Should there be a more active outage environment during 2020, we would expect margins to increase by approximately 50 basis points above this baseline guidance, resulting in an upside case adjusted EBITDA margin of approximately 20.5%.
Operating and free cash flow generation is expected to be strong, with the conversion of adjusted net income to free cash flow expected to be approximately 90%.

Any such forward looking statements are not guarantees of performance or results, and involve risks, uncertainties (some of which are beyond the Company's control) and assumptions. Although Generac believes any forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions, you should be aware that many factors could affect Generac's actual financial results and cause them to differ materially from those anticipated in any forward-looking statements, including:

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.

| (1) In the fourth quarter of 2019, management determined that the Latin American export operations of the legacy Generac business (GPS LATAM) should have been included in the International reportable segment. Previously, GPS LATAM was reported in the Domestic segment, in amounts that were not material. To reflect this change, management has chosen to correct the net sales and adjusted EBITDA by segment as follows: For the first, second and third quarters ended in 2019, net sales of $2,705, $4,406, and $3,353, respectively, and adjusted EBITDA of $(253), $845, and $384, respectively, were moved from the Domestic segment to the International segment. For the first, second, third, and fourth quarters ended in 2018, net sales of $3,822, $5,907, $2,577, and $1,499, respectively, and adjusted EBITDA of $312, $815, $(94), and $(843), respectively, were moved from the Domestic segment to the International segment. | |||||||||||||
