HERNDON, Va.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Beacon Roofing Supply, Inc. (the "Company") (NASDAQ: BECN) announced results today for its third quarter ended June 30, 2015 of the fiscal year ending September 30, 2015 (“Fiscal 2015”).

Paul Isabella, the Company’s President and Chief Executive Officer, stated: “Today’s record third quarter earnings release continues the tremendous momentum from our July 27 announcement of Beacon’s agreement to acquire RSG. I look forward to the anticipated October 1, 2015 closing of the RSG acquisition and to have RSG’s 83 branches and talented and experienced workforce join Beacon and help deliver even greater service and product offerings to our customers. Until then, we will remain focused on driving growth and enhanced profitability across our 274 branches, which we accomplished in our third quarter. We delivered 8.3% sales growth in the quarter and 7.9% sales growth year-to-date, which resulted in record revenues for the third quarter and nine months. All three product lines grew compared to last year with residential and complementary leading the way with 13.2% and 9.8% growth, respectively. This marks the fifth consecutive quarter in which all three product lines grew, demonstrating the strength of our diversified portfolio. Also encouraging is that our growth pace accelerated solidly through the quarter after difficult weather conditions in April and early May, particularly in our West Division. Sales grew in six of our seven regions, with three regions recording double-digit gains. Gross margins improved by 90 basis points, mainly driven from a mix shift into higher margin residential and complementary business. As we look towards the fourth quarter, and the exciting closing of the RSG acquisition at the start of next year, we are confident that we will build upon the third quarter’s solid performance to finish the year strongly and deliver superior value to our customers and shareholders.”

Third Quarter

Total sales increased 8.3% to $718.2 million in 2015, from $663.4 million in 2014. On an overall consolidated basis, residential roofing product sales increased 13.2%, non-residential roofing product sales increased 1.3%, and complementary product sales increased 9.8% over the prior year. Existing market sales, excluding acquisitions, increased 4.9% for the quarter. The third quarter of 2015 and 2014 both had the same number of business days.

Net income for the third quarter was $28.3 million, compared to $26.8 million in 2014. The third quarter net income per share was $0.56, compared to $0.54 in 2014. The net income for the quarter was favorably impacted by gross margins which improved by 90 basis points over the prior year. This was partially offset by increased operating expenses driven by the incremental costs associated with the three acquisitions made this fiscal year and the greenfields opened in the last 21 months.

Nine Months

Total sales increased 7.9% to a nine month record of $1,727.4 million in 2015, from $1,600.4 million in 2014. On an overall consolidated basis, residential roofing product sales increased 11.7%, non-residential roofing product sales increased 0.8%, and complementary product sales increased 14.2% over the prior year. Existing market sales, excluding acquisitions, increased 4.6% year to date. The nine months of 2015 and 2014 both had the same number of business days.

Net income for the nine months was $31.5 million, compared to $29.6 million in 2014. The nine months diluted net income per share was $0.63, compared to $0.59 in 2014. Net income for the nine months was favorably impacted by gross margins which improved by 60 bps over the prior year, and unfavorably impacted by increased operating expenses which were primarily driven by the incremental costs associated with the three acquisitions made this fiscal year and the greenfields opened in the last 21 months.

Cash flow from operations was $11.2 million in 2015, compared to ($46.8) million in 2014. This increase in operating cash flow was primarily impacted by changes in working capital and higher net income in the current year. Cash on hand decreased by $8.8 million due primarily to an increase in cash used for acquisition activities in 2015. Through positive working capital management and higher net income, the Company was able to fund three acquisitions, while improving its leverage ratio from 2.04 as compared to 2.26 at the end of the third quarter 2014.
