Euramax Holdings, Inc. Second Quarter 2013 Financial Results

NORCROSS, Ga., Aug. 9, 2013 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Euramax Holdings, Inc., a leading international producer of metal and vinyl products sold to the residential repair and remodel, commercial construction and recreational vehicle (RV) markets primarily in North America and Europe, today announced financial results for the second quarter of 2013. Net sales, operating income, and adjusted EBITDA for the second quarter of 2013 were $229.9 million, $9.9 million, and $20.8 million, respectively. Net sales, operating income, and adjusted EBITDA for the first half of 2013 were $402.4 million, $2.5 million, and $26.1 million, respectively.

President and CEO Mitchell B. Lewis commented, "We are pleased with our strong operating performance for the second quarter of 2013 which included increases in net sales, operating income and adjusted EBITDA compared to the prior year quarter. Operating results benefited from the release of pent up demand in our U.S. Residential Products Segments resulting from longer and more severe winter weather conditions during the 1st quarter of 2013. Broader improvements in the North American residential repair and remodel sector also contributed to higher demand from distributors of our roof drainage products and for our vinyl window and patio offerings. Our European segments were able to achieve marginal increases in net sales, despite continued market challenges, as a result of successful ongoing business development initiatives."

Second Quarter 2013 Financial Summary

Net sales increased $6.1 million, or 2.7%, to $229.9 million in the second quarter of 2013 compared to $223.8 million in the second quarter of 2012. Total net sales for the Company's U.S. and European segments increased $5.1 million and $1.0 million, respectively, over the prior year quarter. Net sales in the U.S. Residential Products Segment increased due to higher demand for products in both the home center and distributor markets. Sales of these products benefited from the release of pent up demand resulting from longer and more severe winter weather conditions during the 1st quarter of 2013. Improvements in net sales of our vinyl window and patio offerings were driven by broader recovery in the residential repair and remodel sector. Increases in net sales were offset by lower selling prices in the U.S. Commercial Products segment associated with declines in metal raw material costs. Despite lower end market demand in Western Europe, net sales for the Company's European segments increased over the prior year quarter. These increases reflect higher demand for specialty coated coils and panels used in architectural and industrial projects as a result of ongoing business development initiatives primarily in emerging markets. Foreign currency translation did not have a significant impact on net sales during the quarter.
Income from operations increased $1.8 million to $9.9 million in the second quarter of 2013 compared to $8.1 million for the second quarter of 2012. Income from operations increased primarily as a result of higher demand in the U.S. Residential Products segment and due to customer and product profitability initiatives in Europe. These increases were partially offset by net sales declines in the U.S. Commercial Products segment. Income from operations in the second quarter of 2013 was also negatively impacted by non-recurring other operating charges totaling $1.1 million, compared to $0.9 million recorded in the second quarter of 2012. Other operating charges in the second quarter of 2013 were primarily related to restructuring initiatives in the European Engineered Products segment including the relocation from multiple plant facilities in the UK into one operating location.
Adjusted EBITDA is a significant operating measure used by the Company to measure its operating performance and liquidity. Adjusted EBITDA was $20.8 million in the second quarter of 2013 compared to $19.2 million in the second quarter of 2012, an increase of $1.6 million, or 8.3%.

Forward Looking Statements

Certain statements contained in this press release are "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, including but not limited to statements related to plans for future business development activities, anticipated costs of revenues, product mix, research and development and selling, general and administrative activities, and liquidity and capital needs and resources. When used in this report, the words "expect," "anticipate," "intend," "plan," "believe," "seek," "estimate," and similar expressions are generally intended to identify forward-looking statements. You should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which only speak as of the date of this press release. Such forward-looking statements are subject to risks, uncertainties and other factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from future results expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements.

GAAP Versus Non-GAAP Presentation

The Company presents Adjusted EBITDA in this press release as additional information regarding the Company's operating results. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net loss plus (i) provision (benefit) for income taxes, (ii) interest expense and (iii) depreciation and amortization, as further adjusted to exclude the effects of certain income and expense items that management believes make it more difficult to assess the Company's actual operating performance. The Company's calculation of Adjusted EBITDA is consistent with the calculation of Consolidated Cash Flow in the Indenture governing the Notes, excluding certain pro forma items. Adjusted EBITDA is not a measure of financial performance under accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S., and should not be considered an alternative to net income as a measure of operating performance or cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities as a measure of liquidity.

The Company believes Adjusted EBITDA is helpful to investors in highlighting trends because Adjusted EBITDA excludes the results of certain decisions of operating management that can differ significantly from company to company depending on long-term strategic decisions regarding capital structure, the tax jurisdictions in which companies operate and capital investments. Management compensates for the limitations of using non-GAAP financial measures by using them to supplement GAAP results to provide a more complete understanding of the factors and trends affecting the business than GAAP results alone. The Company also believes Adjusted EBITDA is useful to investors because it is frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of companies in our industry. Investors use Adjusted EBITDA, among other things, to assess the Company's period-to-period operating performance and to gain insight into the manner in which management analyzes operating performance.

A reconciliation of the Company's Adjusted EBITDA to net income (loss) is included in the supplemental information attached to this release.

Other loss, net for the three months ended June 29, 2012 included translation losses on intercompany obligations of approximately $9.2 million, offset by gains of $(0.3) million on forward foreign currency contracts. Other loss, net for the six months ended June 29, 2012 included translation losses on intercompany obligations of approximately $3.5 million, partially offset by a $(0.5) million gain on the sale of assets related to the exit of our RV door product line and gains of $(0.1) million on forward foreign currency contracts.
