Griffon Corporation Announces Second Quarter Results
NEW YORK, NEW YORK, April 29, 2021 – Griffon Corporation (“Griffon” or the “Company”) (NYSE:GFF) today reported results for the second quarter of fiscal 2021 ended March 31, 2021.
Consolidated revenue for the second quarter totaled $634.8 million, a 12% increase compared to the prior year quarter revenue of $566.4 million.
Net income totaled $17.1 million, or $0.32 per share, compared to $0.9 million, or $0.02 per share, in the prior year quarter. Current year adjusted net income was $25.4 million, or $0.48 per share, compared to $10.1 million, or $0.23 per share, in the prior year quarter, a 109% increase (see reconciliation of Net income to Adjusted net income for details).
Adjusted EBITDA for the second quarter was $67.8 million, increasing 41% from the prior year quarter of $48.0 million. Unallocated amounts excluding depreciation (primarily corporate overhead) in each of the second quarter of 2021 and 2020 was $11.9 million. Adjusted EBITDA excluding unallocated amounts totaled $79.7 million in the second quarter of 2021, increasing 33% from the prior year of $59.9 million. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income excluding interest income and expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, restructuring charges, loss from debt extinguishment and acquisition related expenses, as well as other items that may affect comparability, as applicable (see reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to Income before taxes).
Ronald J. Kramer, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, commented, “Our excellent performance in the fiscal second quarter is a result of our continued operating improvement and robust demand for our diverse portfolio of leading brands and essential products. Our team is poised to deliver further improvements in the years ahead as we optimize our businesses through strategic initiatives. Griffon is well-positioned to continue delivering long term shareholder value.”
Segment Operating Results
Consumer and Professional Products ("CPP")
CPP revenue in the current quarter totaling $331.9 million increased 21% compared to the prior year period, primarily due to increased volume of 17%, driven by continued consumer demand across all geographies, primarily for outdoor decor, landscaping and home organization products, and a favorable foreign currency impact of 4%.
CPP Adjusted EBITDA in the second quarter was $37.4 million, increasing 50% from the prior year quarter primarily from increased revenue noted above and a favorable foreign currency impact of 8%, partially offset by increased distribution and material costs, and COVID-19 related inefficiencies.
Strategic Initiative
In November 2019, Griffon announced the development of a next-generation business platform for CPP to enhance the growth, efficiency, and competitiveness of its U.S. operations, and on November 12, 2020,
1
Griffon announced the broadening of this strategic initiative to include additional North American facilities, the AMES UK and Australia businesses, and a manufacturing facility in China.
The expanded focus of this initiative leverages the same three key development areas being executed within our U.S. operations. First, certain AMES global operations will be consolidated to optimize facilities footprint and talent. Second, strategic investments in automation and facilities expansion will be made to increase the efficiency of our manufacturing and fulfillment operations, and support e-commerce growth. Third, multiple independent information systems will be unified into a single data and analytics platform, which will serve the whole AMES global enterprise.
Expanding the roll-out of the new business platform from our AMES U.S. operations to include AMES’ global operations will extend the duration of the project by one year, with completion now expected by the end of calendar year 2023. When fully implemented, these actions will result in annual cash savings of $30 million to $35 million and a reduction in inventory of $30 million to $35 million, both based on fiscal 2020 operating levels.
The cost to implement this new business platform, over the duration of the project, will include one-time charges of approximately $65 million and capital investments of approximately $65 million. The one-time charges are comprised of $46 million of cash charges, which includes $26 million of personnel-related costs such as training, severance, and duplicate personnel costs as well as $20 million of facility and lease exit costs. The remaining $19 million of charges are non-cash and are primarily related to asset write-downs.
During the six months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, CPP incurred pre-tax restructuring and related exit costs approximating $10.6 million and $9.5 million, respectively. During the six months ended March 31, 2021, cash charges totaled $7.9 million and non-cash, asset-related charges totaled $2.7 million; the cash charges included $1.1 million for one-time termination benefits and other personnel-related costs and $6.8 million for facility exit costs. During the six months ended March 31, 2020, cash charges totaled $4.8 million and non-cash, asset-related charges totaled $4.7 million; the cash charges included $3.8 million for one-time termination benefits and other personnel-related costs and $1.1 million for facility exit costs.
Home and Building Products ("HBP")
HBP revenue in the current quarter totaling $242.8 million increased 16% from the prior year quarter, driven by increased volume.
HBP Adjusted EBITDA in the current quarter was $40.1 million, increasing 31% compared to the prior year quarter. EBITDA benefited from increased revenue noted above and volume related benefits on absorption, partially offset by increased material costs and COVID-19 related inefficiencies.
2
Defense Electronics ("DE")
DE revenue in the current quarter totaled $60.2 million, decreasing 26% from the prior year quarter. The prior year results include revenue from the SEG business of $7.5 million. Excluding the divestiture of SEG from prior year results, revenue decreased $14.0 million, or 19%. The decrease was driven by reduced volume due to the timing of work performed and deliveries on Communication and Surveillance programs.
DE Adjusted EBITDA in the current quarter was $2.2 million, decreasing 48% from the prior year quarter, driven by the reduced revenue noted above and cost growth on Surveillance programs, partially offset by the reduced headcount related to the reduction in force that occurred in the first quarter.
Contract backlog was $353.9 million at March 31, 2021 compared to $320.2 million at March 31, 2020 (excludes $11.5 million of SEG related backlog) with 65% expected to be fulfilled in the next 12 months. Backlog was approximately $370.0 million at September 30, 2020 (excludes approximately $10.0 million of SEG related backlog). During the current quarter and year-to-date periods, DE was awarded several new contracts and received incremental funding on existing contracts approximating $25 million and $105 million (excludes $5.5 million of SEG awards from the first quarter), respectively; the trailing twelve month book-to-bill ratio was 1.1.
Taxes
The Company reported pretax income for the quarters ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively, and recognized tax provisions of 38.6% and 69.4%, respectively. Excluding all items that affect comparability, the effective tax rates for the quarters ended March 31, 2021 and 2020 were 30.0% and 35.9%, respectively. The current year-to-date effective tax rate was 30.5% and the rate excluding all items that affect comparability was 31.1%.
Balance Sheet and Capital Expenditures
At March 31, 2021, the Company had cash and equivalents of $175.6 million and total debt outstanding of $1.06 billion, resulting in a net debt position of $0.9 billion. Borrowing availability under the revolving credit facility was $363.1 million subject to certain loan covenants. Capital expenditures were $12.1 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2021.
Share Repurchases
As of March 31, 2021, Griffon had $58 million remaining under its Board of Directors authorized repurchase program. There were no purchases under these authorizations during the quarter ended March 31, 2021.
