Spectrum Brands (NYSE:SPC)
Historical Stock Chart
From Dec 2019 to Dec 2024
Spectrum Brands, Inc. (NYSE: SPC) (the Company) announced today second
quarter net sales of $647.1 million and a net loss of $2.19 per share
for the quarter ended March 30, 2008. Excluding certain items which
management believes are not indicative of the Company’s
on-going normalized operations, the Company generated an adjusted net
loss per share of $0.14 on a fully diluted basis, a non-GAAP number.
These items, net of tax, include:
A catch up in depreciation and amortization related to the
re-classification of the Home & Garden segment into continuing
operations of $10.7 million or $0.21 per share;
A non-cash impairment charge of $8.3 million or $0.16 per share, for
the write-off of certain trade names used in the Home & Garden
business;
restructuring and related charges of $3.5 million, or $0.07 per share,
associated with company-wide cost reduction initiatives;
net tax adjustments of $83.0 million, or $1.63 per share, to reflect
an increase in the valuation allowance against net deferred tax
assets; and
other items netting to a benefit of $0.9 million or $.02 per share.
During the second quarter of fiscal 2007, the Company reported a net
loss per fully diluted share of $4.77. Excluding a goodwill impairment
charge of $3.84 per share, refinancing charges of $0.43 per share,
restructuring and related charges of $0.25 per share, $0.05 per share of
transaction costs incurred in connection with the proposed sale of the
Company’s Home and Garden business, an add
back of $0.04 per share for depreciation and amortization that would
have been recorded if the Home & Garden business had been in continuing
operations, and other non-cash adjustments netting an add back of $0.06
per share, the second quarter 2007 adjusted loss per fully diluted share
was $0.30.
Led by strong double digit growth in the Company’s
personal care and companion pet supply product lines and favorable
foreign exchange, Spectrum Brands' net sales of $647.1 million
represented a two percent increase from the prior year, after excluding
the Canadian division of the Home and Garden business, which the Company
sold in November 2007. Favorable foreign currency contributed $27
million, or 4 percent to net sales. Partially offsetting the positive
trends were lower sales in consumer batteries and men’s
electric shaving and grooming in North America. Additionally, the Home &
Garden division saw a later than normal start to its peak selling season
this year, delaying some expected revenues into the third quarter.
The Company continued to see benefits from its 2007 global realignment
initiatives. Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP measurement which the Company
believes is a useful indicator of the operating health of the business
and its trajectory, was $66.2 million as compared with $54.0 million in
the second quarter of the prior year, a 23 percent improvement. For the
latest twelve months, adjusted EBITDA is $296.3 million and has
increased 26 percent compared to one year ago.
"This marks the fourth consecutive quarter of double digit growth in
adjusted EBITDA. This level of performance reflects the very strong
focus and commitment our team has to drive profitable growth in this
business,” said Kent Hussey, Chief Executive
Officer. “I’m
pleased with the progress we’re making.
Despite a sluggish U.S. economy, continuing tight inventory controls at
retailers and rising input costs, our teams have worked hard to make the
necessary changes to improve the efficiency and profitability of this
business.”
Gross profit and gross margin for the quarter were $234.6 million and
36.3 percent, respectively, versus $223.8 million and 35.3 percent for
the same period last year. Within cost of sales, the Company incurred
restructuring and related charges of approximately $200 thousand this
quarter related to headcount reductions taken as part of its 2007 global
realignment and $6.7 million in the second quarter of 2007. Also, within
cost of sales this quarter was $4.7 million in depreciation related to
the Home & Garden segment that was not present last year.
The current quarter’s operating expenses were
$222.9 million as compared with $420.3 million in operating expenses in
the same quarter last year. Included in this year’s
operating expenses were $15.8 million of additional depreciation and
amortization, $13.2 million for a non-cash intangibles impairment
related to trade names in the Home & Garden segment and $5.2 million in
restructuring and related charges. In the second quarter of fiscal 2007,
operating expenses included a non-cash charge of $214 million for a
goodwill impairment and $11.2 million in restructuring and related
charges.
Spectrum generated second quarter operating income and operating margin
of $11.7 million and 1.8 percent, respectively, versus an operating loss
of $196.5 million in the same period last year. The primary variance
related to the non-cash impairment charges referenced above.
Reporting Change
In view of current economic conditions and existing uncertainties in
financial markets, the Company's Board of Directors has determined that
it is unlikely at this time that the Company could complete a sale of
its lawn and garden and household insect control business (the "Home and
Garden Business") at a price and upon terms and conditions that the
Company would regard as acceptable. As a result, the Company has
determined not to pursue a sale of the Home and Garden Business at this
time. In addition, in accordance with applicable accounting principles
and in view of the difficulty in predicting the timing or probability of
a sale, the Home and Garden Business will be reclassified and accounted
for as an asset held and used in the Company's continuing operations and
accounted for as part of the Company's continuing operations beginning
in the second quarter of fiscal 2008. The Company remains committed to
exploring possible strategic options, including divesting certain
assets, in order to sharpen the Company's focus on strategic growth
businesses, reduce outstanding indebtedness and maximize long-term
shareholder value.
As a result of the reclassification of our Home and Garden Business as
continuing operations, in accordance with GAAP, we have revised our
financial results for all prior periods in which we classified our Home
and Garden Business as discontinued operations to present the Home and
Garden Business as continuing operations. Our revised presentation
excludes from continuing operations the results of our Canadian division
of our Home and Garden business, which we sold in November 2007 and
remains classified as discontinued operations for such periods. See
attached Tables 4, 5 and 6 that reflect selected financial data for
fiscal 2007 by quarter and the 1st and 2nd
quarters of fiscal 2008 as described above (the “Home
and Garden Reconciliation Spreadsheets”).
Second Quarter Segment Results
The Global Batteries and Personal Care segment reported net sales of
$307.6 million compared with $297.2 million reported last year, an
increase of 3.5 percent, primarily as a result of favorable foreign
exchange of $22 million. Global battery sales were down 1.4 percent
compared with the prior year. The primary driver of this decline was
lower North American battery sales, which declined 15.9 percent as
compared with the prior year, due to the sluggish US economy, lower
category consumption and inventory reductions among certain key
retailers. European battery sales increased 3.3 percent from the prior
year benefiting from favorable foreign exchange, offset by slower sales
in Western Europe due to the Company’s
planned exit from unprofitable or marginally profitable private label
businesses. Latin American battery sales generated year over year growth
of 7.3 percent. Global sales of Remington branded products increased
18.1 percent during the quarter with positive sales growth in each major
geographic region and double digit increases in hair care products.
Increased distribution and market share gains in Europe and Latin
America generated double digit sales growth in those areas. North
America experienced single digit growth as a result of lower sales in
batteries and men’s electric shaving and
grooming products.
Segment profitability for Global Batteries & Personal Care was $24.7
million for the quarter, up 11.8 percent over last year’s
$22.1 million. The profit improvement was primarily due to the cost
savings generated from 2007’s global
realignment initiatives as well as a 40 basis point improvement in gross
margin related to cost savings generated from more efficient operation
of the Company’s manufacturing facilities.
Global Pet Supplies net sales were $148.4 million, a 4.1 percent
increase compared with the prior year. Companion animal product net
sales grew 10.3 percent, while global aquatics net sales increased 1.5
percent from the prior year. North American aquatic sales declined 8
percent, continuing the trend experienced over the past year. Sales in
Europe and the Pacific Rim were up 19.5 percent and 18.7 percent,
respectively, as a result of new product rollouts, new marketing
programs and favorable currency.
Segment profitability for Global Pet Supplies for the quarter was $15.3
million compared to $16.4 million last year, down 6.7 percent due to
increased input costs and foreign exchange effects. The Company has
implemented price increases, which should benefit results in the second
half of fiscal 2008.
Spectrum’s Home & Garden segment’s
net sales from continuing operations were $191.1 million, a 1.9 percent
decline for the quarter. The Company experienced stringent inventory
controls by certain retailers and a potential projected shift of some
revenues to the third quarter due to a late breaking lawn and garden
season. Weather conditions improved in April, leading to a double digit
point of sale improvement over last year, improving the outlook for Home
& Garden for the balance of fiscal 2008.
Due to the cumulative depreciation and amortization catch-up of $17.1
million plus normal depreciation and amortization of $3.4 million
recorded this quarter which were not included in last year’s
results, the Home & Garden segment generated a loss of $500 thousand as
compared with profits of $14.8 million last year.
Corporate expenses were $9.2 million for the quarter as compared with
$17.9 million last year. 2007 corporate expenses included a
non-recurring $4 million charge related to the write-off in the second
quarter of 2007 of professional fees incurred in connection with the
attempt to sell the Home & Garden business. The remainder of the
variance is due to lower executive compensation expense and other
corporate overhead expense reductions.
Interest expense was $58.3 million compared to $85.2 million in the same
period last year. 2007 interest expense included a prepayment premium of
$11.6 million associated with the refinancing of the Company’s
senior credit facility and the write-off of debt issuance costs of $24.6
million, accounting for the variance from this quarter’s
interest expense.
Tax expense recorded during the quarter was $66.3 million versus a tax
benefit of $45.9 million in the same period last year. Included in this
is a $51.9 million expense related to increasing the Company’s
valuation allowance against the net deferred tax asset of its Home &
Garden segment necessitated as a result of the reclassification of the
segment from discontinued operations to continuing operations. In
addition, similar to the first quarter of 2008, the Company recorded an
expense in the quarter to increase its valuation allowance against its
U.S. federal net deferred tax asset of its remaining business segments
to reserve for the possibility that the deferred tax assets will not be
realized. As a result, fiscal 2008 operating losses in the U.S. no
longer create U.S. tax benefits. This accounting treatment is not
expected to have any impact on the Company’s
ability to utilize net operating losses if and when the Company
recognizes future taxable income within the U.S. The result of not
recording a tax benefit in the U.S. combined with recording a tax
provision on taxable income generated by foreign subsidiaries results in
an effective tax rate significantly higher than that experienced in
prior years. This increased tax rate has no cash impact on the Company.
Webcast Information
Spectrum Brands will hold a conference call at 8:30 a.m. EDT on May 6 to
further discuss its second quarter results. The call will be accessible
via webcast through the Company’s website, www.spectrumbrands.com,
and will be archived online until May 20.
Non-GAAP Measurements
Within this release, including the tables attached hereto, reference is
made to adjusted diluted earnings per share and adjusted earnings before
interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA). See attached
Table 3, “Reconciliation of Diluted Earnings
Per Share to Adjusted Diluted Earnings Per Share,”
for a complete reconciliation of diluted earnings per share on a GAAP
basis to adjusted diluted earnings per share, and Table 6, “GAAP
Net Loss to Adjusted EBITDA,” for a
reconciliation of net income to adjusted EBITDA for the second quarter
of fiscal 2008 and the second quarter of fiscal 2007 and for the last
twelve months as of the end of the second quarter of fiscal 2008 and the
second quarter of fiscal 2007. Adjusted EBITDA is a metric used by
management and frequently used by the financial community which provides
insight into an organization’s operating
trends and facilitates comparisons between peer companies, since
interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization can differ greatly
between organizations as a result of differing capital structures and
tax strategies. Adjusted EBITDA can also be a useful measure of a company’s
ability to service debt and is one of the measures used for determining
the Company’s debt covenant compliance.
Adjusted EBITDA excludes certain items that are unusual in nature or not
comparable from period to period. In addition, Spectrum Brands’
management uses adjusted diluted earnings per share as one means of
analyzing the Company’s current and future
financial performance and identifying trends in its financial condition
and results of operations. Spectrum Brands provides this information to
investors to assist in comparisons of past, present and future operating
results and to assist in highlighting the results of on-going
operations. While Spectrum Brands management believes that adjusted
diluted earnings per share and adjusted EBITDA are useful supplemental
information, such adjusted results are not intended to replace the
Company’s GAAP financial results and should
be read in conjunction with those GAAP results.

(a) For the three months ended March 30, 2008, reflects $3.5 million,
net of tax, of restructuring and related charges as follows: $1.0
million for the integration of United and Tetra and $2.5 million for the
Global restructuring announced January 10, 2007.
(b) For the three months ended April 1, 2007, reflects $12.5 million,
net of tax, of restructuring and related charges as follows: (i) $8.6
million for the integration of United and Tetra; (ii) $2.6 million for a
series of actions in Europe and Latin America to reduce operating costs
and rationalize operating structure; (iii) $1.3 million for the Global
restructuring announced January 10, 2007.
(c) For the six months ended March 30, 2008, reflects $6.8 million, net
of tax, of restructuring and related charges as follows: $2.0 million
for the integration of United and Tetra and $4.8 million for the Global
restructuring announced January 10, 2007.
(d) For the six months ended April 1, 2007, reflects $18.6 million, net
of tax, of restructuring and related charges as follows: (i) $12.5
million for the integration of United and Tetra; (ii) $4.8 million for a
series of actions in Europe and Latin America to reduce operating costs
and rationalize operating structure; (iii) $1.3 million for the Global

(e) For the three and six months ended March 30, 2008, reflects an
impairment charge of $8.3 million, net of tax, for the write-off of
trade names of our Home & Garden business as a result of an impairment
evaluation in accordance with SFAS 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible

(f) For the three and six months ended April 1, 2007, reflects an
impairment charge of $191.2 million, net of tax, for the write-off of

(g) Effective December 31, 2007, the Company discontinued the active
marketing of the Home and Garden business for sale and, accordingly,
reclassified the Home and Garden business, which had been designated as
a discontinued operation since October 1, 2006, as an asset held and
used in continuing operations. Going forward the Company will account
for the Home and Garden business as continuing operations. Inasmuch as
depreciation and amortization expense is not recorded for assets

(a) adjustment reflects restricted stock amortization which is
associated with and included in restructuring and related charges.
As such amounts are also included in Table 2 to the Company's
earning release for the respective quarter, "Supplemental Cash
Flow Data - Depreciation and amortization excluding amortization
of debt issuance costs," the adjustment negates the impact of
reflecting this expense twice.
(b) the reconciliation of last twelve months (LTM) adjusted EBITDA
as of the end of the 2nd quarter of Fiscal 2007 to the LTM adjusted
