Schiff Nutrition International, Inc., (NYSE:WNI), announced results for the three- and nine-month periods ended February 29, 2012.
“We are pleased with our third quarter performance,” stated Tarang Amin, president and chief executive officer. “Net sales grew 25%, which was driven by a 53% increase in our branded business. These results reflect successful execution against Schiff’s growth strategy as we invest to build premium brands and lead innovation in our categories. Our core brands Schiff Move Free® and Schiff MegaRed®, in particular, benefited from strong marketing and sales execution as well as traction from new items.”
Three Months Results Ended February 29, 2012
For the fiscal 2012 third quarter ended February 29, 2012, net sales were $72.2 million, compared to $57.7 million for the same period in fiscal 2011. The 25% increase reflects growth in key brands, new product introductions and a full quarter’s contribution from the probiotics acquisition. Branded sales results were partially offset by an expected decline in private label business. Selling and marketing expenses were $17.8 million, or 25% of revenue, compared to $7.9 million, or 14% of revenue. Net income for the fiscal 2012 third quarter was $4.6 million, compared to net income of $4.0 million for the same period in fiscal 2011. Earnings per diluted share were $0.16 for the fiscal 2012 third quarter, compared to $0.14 for the same period in fiscal 2011. Adjusted EBITDA, which is defined as income from operations before depreciation, amortization and stock-based compensation, was $9.3 million for the fiscal 2012 third quarter, compared to $7.4 million for the same period in fiscal 2011.
Nine Months Results Ended February 29, 2012
For the first nine months of fiscal 2012, net sales were $191.5 million, compared to $161.8 million for the same period in fiscal 2011. Selling and marketing expenses were $45.0 million, or 24% of revenue, compared to $26.2 million, or 16% of revenue. Net income for the first nine months of fiscal 2012 was $11.8 million, compared to net income of $9.6 million for the same period in fiscal 2011. Earnings per diluted share were $0.40 for the first nine months of fiscal 2012, compared to $0.33 for the same period in fiscal 2011. Adjusted EBITDA was $25.3 million for the first nine months of fiscal 2012, compared to $21.5 million for the same period in fiscal 2011.
“We are positioning Schiff for long-term growth. Our sales and gross margins continue to benefit from our investments in brand building. It is gratifying the business has responded to these efforts so positively in fiscal 2012,” concluded Amin.

Reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to Income from Operations
This press release refers to non-GAAP financial measures. The company defines "Adjusted EBITDA" as income from operations before depreciation, amortization and stock-based compensation. This non-GAAP financial measure is not prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) and may be different from non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered as a substitute for, or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. A reconciliation of the non-GAAP measure to the comparable GAAP measure is included in the attached financial tables. Management believes the presentation of Adjusted EBITDA is relevant and useful because Adjusted EBITDA is a measurement industry analysts utilize when evaluating the company’s operating performance. Management also believes Adjusted EBITDA enhances an investor's understanding of the company’s results of operations because it measures the company’s operating performance exclusive of non-cash charges for depreciation, amortization and stock-based compensation. Management also provides this non-GAAP measurement as a way to help investors better understand the company’s core operating performance, enhance comparisons of the company’s core operating performance from period to period and to allow better comparisons of the company’s operating performance to that of its competitors.
