Continued Top Line Growth and Sequential Improvement in Profitability
RICHMOND, Va., Feb. 9 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Cadmus Communications Corporation (NASDAQ:CDMS) today announced results for its second quarter of fiscal 2007. Net sales were $116.0 million on a consolidated basis, up 8% from $107.3 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2007, and up 2% from $114.2 million in last year's second quarter. Operating income was $3.8 million, loss from continuing operations was $1.3 million, and net loss was $1.3 million, or a loss of $0.14 per share assuming dilution, for the second quarter of fiscal 2007, compared to operating income of $5.2 million, income from continuing operations of $1.1 million, and net income of $1.1 million, or $0.12 per share assuming dilution, in the second quarter of fiscal 2006.
Included in the results for the second quarter of fiscal 2007 are merger- related costs of approximately $2.6 million, or $0.28 per share net of tax, in connection with the Company's previously announced agreement of merger with Cenveo, Inc., pursuant to which Cadmus will become an indirect, wholly owned subsidiary of Cenveo, and approximately $0.2 million, or $0.01 per share net of tax, of restructuring and other charges. The results for the second quarter of fiscal 2006 included $1.5 million, or $0.09 per share net of tax, of restructuring and other charges. Adjusted for the impact of these items(1), (i) adjusted operating income was $6.5 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2007 compared to $4.5 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2007(2), and $6.7 million for the second quarter of last year, (ii) adjusted income per share was $0.15 for the second quarter of fiscal 2007 compared to a loss of $(0.02) per share for the first quarter of fiscal 2007(3), and income of $0.21 per share in last year's second quarter, and (iii) Adjusted EBITDA(4) was $11.6 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2007, up from $9.1 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2007, and up slightly from $11.5 million in last year's second quarter.
Operating highlights for the second quarter of fiscal 2007 were as follows:
-- Net sales for the Publisher Services segment increased 3% to $94.9
million from $92.2 million in the prior year second quarter;
-- Content services sales within the Publisher Services segment rose 10%
and print services sales within the Publisher Services segment rose 2%
compared to prior year second quarter;
-- Specialty Packaging net sales decreased 4% to $21.2 million; however
operating margins improved to 9.1% from 8.6% in last year's second
quarter;
-- Total debt increased by $4.6 million (excluding the fair market value
of interest rate swap agreements) from September 30, 2006, as the
Company paid its semi-annual interest payment on the senior
subordinated notes, incurred approximately $4.4 million in capital
expenditures during the quarter and saw increases in accounts
receivable and inventory; and
-- Adjusted EBITDA(4) was $11.6 million for the second quarter of fiscal
2007 up slightly from last year.
Bruce V. Thomas, president and chief executive officer, remarked, "We are pleased with the sequential improvement throughout our operations from the first quarter of fiscal 2007. Our Publisher Services segment continued to show broad-based improvement and sustained top-line growth and our Specialty Packaging segment continues to deliver strong operating margins. Overall, we are pleased with the performance of our operations and the improvement in Adjusted EBITDA that was achieved for the second quarter."

Net sales for the second quarter totaled $116.0 million, an increase of 8% from $107.3 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2007 and up 2% from $114.2 million last year.

Specialty Packaging operating income of $1.9 million, or 9.1% of net sales, was up from $1.5 million, or 8.4% of net sales in the first quarter of fiscal 2007(6), and up slightly from $1.9 million, or 8.6% of net sales last year. Publisher Services operating income in the second quarter of fiscal 2007 declined to $6.0 million from $6.5 million last year and operating income margins declined to 6.3% of net sales from 7.1% last year. However, operating income for Publisher Services improved over the $4.3 million, or 4.8% of net sales in the first quarter of fiscal 2007(7).
Adjusted income for the second quarter totaled $1.4 million, or $0.15 per share, compared to adjusted income of $2.0 million, or $0.21 per share, in last year's second quarter.(8) Total debt increased by $4.6 million (excluding the fair market value of interest rate swap agreements) from September 30, 2006, as the Company paid its semi-annual interest payment on the senior subordinated notes, incurred approximately $4.4 million in capital expenditures during the quarter and saw increases in accounts receivable and inventory.
Use of GAAP and Non-GAAP Measures
In addition to results presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"), the Company included in this release certain non-GAAP financial measures. The non-GAAP financial measures used in this release are not GAAP financial measures and should not be viewed as a substitute for any GAAP financial measure. For each non-GAAP financial measure, the Company has presented the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure and has reconciled the non-GAAP financial measure with such comparable GAAP financial measure (see the Selected Financial Information and Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP Measures tables attached).
The Company included the following non-GAAP financial measures in this release: (1) "adjusted operating income" and "adjusted operating income margin" adjusted to exclude merger-related costs of $2.6 million for the three and six months ended December 31, 2006 and an expense from restructuring and other charges of $0.2 million for the three months ended December 31, 2006 and a benefit from restructuring and other charges of $0.1 million for the six months ended December 31, 2006, and to exclude an expense from restructuring and other charges of $1.5 million and $2.2 million for the three and six months ended December 31, 2005, respectively, (2) "adjusted income" and "adjusted income per share" adjusted in the same manner and for the same items as adjusted operating income for the three and six months ended December 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively, and to exclude the gain from discontinued operations of $0.1 million for the six months ended December 31, 2006, and (3) "Adjusted EBITDA" and "Adjusted EBITDA margin" as a percent of net sales with EBITDA being defined as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization. The Company also excludes discontinued operations and the impact of restructuring and other charges and merger-related costs from the computation of Adjusted EBITDA. In addition, "adjusted operating income" and "adjusted operating income margin" for the first quarter of 2007 were presented and a benefit from restructuring and other charges of $0.3 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2006 were excluded from those results. Further, "adjusted loss per share" for the first quarter of fiscal 2007 was also presented which excluded a benefit of $0.02 per share from restructuring and other charges noted above and a gain on discontinued operations of $0.01 per share.
These non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information to investors to assist in understanding the underlying operational performance of the Company. Specifically, (1) the exclusion of restructuring and other charges permits comparisons of results for on-going business facilities under the current operating structure, (2) the exclusion of merger-related costs permits comparisons of results without the impact of very unusual and infrequent costs related to the proposed change in the Company's ownership structure, (3) the exclusion of the impact of discontinued operations permits comparisons of continuing business operations, and (4) Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin as a percent of net sales are useful measures that (a) are used by management of the Company as one of the primary measures to evaluate operating performance, (b) provide consistent period-over-period comparisons of the Company's operating performance by excluding the impact of investing and financing transactions, and (c) are widely used measures to calculate overall enterprise value of companies. In addition, the Company uses these non-GAAP financial measures internally to measure its on-going business performance and in reports to bankers to permit monitoring of the Company's ability to repay outstanding liabilities.
With respect to Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin, other companies may calculate these measures differently, and therefore, they may not be a good basis for direct comparisons between the performance of the Company and the performance of other companies. In addition, since Adjusted EBITDA eliminates depreciation expense, this measure may not provide useful comparisons with other companies that obtain their operating assets substantially through the use of operating leases since lease costs may not be eliminated in the computation and presentation of EBITDA or Adjusted EBITDA by those companies.
