KMG Reports Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2017 Financial Results

FORT WORTH, Texas, Oct. 16, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- KMG (NYSE: KMG ), a global provider of specialty chemicals and performance materials, today announced financial results for the fourth fiscal quarter and fiscal year ended July 31, 2017.

2017 Fourth Quarter Financial Highlights

Sales increased 28% from the fourth quarter of last year to a record $96.3 million.
GAAP diluted earnings per share was $0.43, up 39% compared to $0.31 per diluted share in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2016. GAAP EPS in 2017 was unfavorably impacted by $3.7 million in purchase price adjustments to acquired inventories, equivalent to $0.22 per diluted share.
Adjusted diluted earnings per share¹ increased to a record $0.69 compared to $0.38 per share reported in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2016.
GAAP net income rose 43% to $5.3 million compared to $3.7 million in last year’s fourth quarter.
Adjusted EBITDA² grew to a record $20.6 million, up from $11.7 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2016.

2017 Fiscal Year Financial Highlights

Sales increased 12% from the prior year to $333.4 million.
GAAP diluted earnings per share was a record $1.92, up 22% from fiscal 2016. GAAP EPS in 2017 was unfavorably impacted by $3.7 million in purchase price adjustments to acquired inventories, equivalent to $0.22 per diluted share.
Adjusted diluted earnings per share was a record $2.27, up 41% from the prior year.
GAAP net income of $23.6 million increased 27% from the prior year.
Adjusted EBITDA grew to a record $60.2 million, an increase of 33% from the prior year’s $45.4 million.

“Fiscal 2017 was a year of continued record financial performance and strategic growth for KMG,” said Chris Fraser, KMG chairman and CEO. “We generated record adjusted EBITDA for the third consecutive year and record earnings per share for the second consecutive year. We also acquired two premier businesses — Sealweld and Flowchem — that advanced our growth strategy and significantly expanded our breadth and capabilities in the global pipeline and energy markets.

“Our performance materials segment, which consists of our pipeline performance and wood treating chemicals businesses, generated fiscal 2017 sales of $56.8 million, a 56% increase from the prior year. Growth in this segment benefited from increased capital and maintenance spending in the energy industry that drove stronger demand for industrial lubricants, as well as a partial-year contribution from Sealweld and a partial-quarter contribution from Flowchem. Additionally, sales in our wood treating chemicals business improved from the prior year.

“Excluding a foreign currency translation impact of $3.1 million, fiscal 2017 sales in our electronic chemicals segment increased 7% from the prior year, representing our most robust sales growth in this segment over the past three years. Positive fundamentals within the global semiconductor industry enhanced our product volume growth, and we also benefited from our ongoing efforts to serve dynamic end markets, such as cloud computing, automotive and advanced logic.”

Mr. Fraser continued, “Fourth quarter adjusted diluted earnings per share of $0.69 increased 82% from the prior-year period and represented a quarterly record for KMG. Our fourth quarter results reflected continued strong performance across our global businesses, further improvements in our operational efficiency and a tax benefit.”

Mr. Fraser concluded, “Given solid fundamentals and favorable growth outlooks in our business segments, as well as full-year contributions from Sealweld and Flowchem, we project fiscal 2018 sales of $435-450 million and fiscal 2018 adjusted EBITDA of $110-115 million.”

For the fourth fiscal quarter, the Performance Materials segment reported:

Sales of $24.5 million, up 171% from $9.0 million in the same period a year ago. Sales growth reflected contributions from Sealweld and Flowchem, product volume growth in industrial lubricants and increased sales of wood treating chemicals.
Operating income of $2.9 million, or 11.8% of sales, compared to $3.2 million, or 35.6% of sales, last year. The decrease in operating income was due to the step-up in basis for acquired inventories, totaling $3.7 million, as required under purchase price accounting, as well as a $2.5 million increase in depreciation and amortization related to the acquisitions of Sealweld and Flowchem. For the same reasons, segment operating margins decreased to 11.8%, from 35.6% in the fourth quarter of 2016.
Adjusted EBITDA⁹ of $10.1 million compared to $3.4 million last year.

For the fiscal 2017 year, the Performance Materials segment reported:

Sales of $56.8 million, up 56% from the prior year. The sales increase was driven by the contributions from Sealweld and Flowchem, as well as product volume growth in industrial lubricants and increased sales of wood treating chemicals.
Operating income of $13.8 million, or 24.3% of sales, compared to $12.6 million, or 34.6% of sales, last year. Although operating income improved from the prior year due to the contributions from Sealweld and Flowchem, and stronger sales in the industrial lubricants and wood treating chemicals businesses, operating income and margin were unfavorably impacted by a $3.7 million purchase price adjustment to acquired inventories and a $2.7 million increase in depreciation and amortization expense.
Adjusted EBITDA¹⁰ of $22.3 million compared to $13.7 million last year.

Fiscal 2018 Outlook

Sales: Fiscal 2018 consolidated net sales are forecast to be $435-450 million.
Adjusted EBITDA: Fiscal 2018 adjusted EBITDA is forecast to be $110-115 million. Our fiscal 2018 adjusted EBITDA forecast includes approximately $6.5 million in stock-based compensation expense.
Depreciation and amortization: Depreciation and amortization expense is forecast to be approximately $21 million.
Capital expenditures: Capital expenditures are forecast to be approximately $29 million, including a portion of our planned capital investment in Singapore.

With respect to the Company’s full-year guidance of Adjusted EBITDA, the Company is not able to provide a reconciliation of these fiscal 2018 non-GAAP financial measures to the most comparable GAAP measure with unreasonable efforts; certain items that are included have not yet occurred and cannot be reasonably predicted, and accordingly, the probable significance of such items cannot be determined at this time. The most comparable GAAP measure and reconciling information that is unavailable, or not reasonably predictable, would include restructuring charges and acquisition and integration-related expenses.

Reconciliation of GAAP financial measures to non-GAAP financial measures KMG provides non-GAAP financial information to complement reported GAAP results. KMG believes that analysis of our financial performance would be enhanced by an understanding of the factors underlying that performance and our judgments about the likelihood that particular factors will repeat. We define adjusted EBITDA as earnings from operations before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, acquisition and integration expenses, restructuring and realignment charges and other relevant items.

KMG intends to continue to provide certain non-GAAP financial information and the appropriate reconciliation to GAAP in its financial results. As required by SEC rules, the tables below present a reconciliation of our presented non-GAAP measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures. These non-GAAP measures should be viewed as a supplement to, and not a substitute for, U.S. GAAP measures of performance.
