PGTI Reports 2019 Third Quarter and Nine-Months Results
PGT Innovations, Inc. (NYSE: PGTI), a national leader in premium windows and doors, including impact-resistant products and products designed to unify indoor/outdoor living spaces, today announced financial results for its third quarter and nine-months ended September 28, 2019.
Financial Highlights for Third Quarter 2019 Compared to Third Quarter 2018
Net sales decreased 1 percent, to $198 million, including a net increase of $17 million from Western Window Systems Gross profit decreased 4 percent, to $70 million Net income increased 11 percent, to $15 million Net income per diluted share was unchanged at $0.26, and adjusted net income per diluted share decreased to $0.26; both affected by the higher number of shares outstanding resulting from the Company’s 2018 equity offering Cost-saving actions taken during the quarter expected to reduce costs by $4 million annually Company lowers 2019 guidanceFinancial Highlights for First Nine Months of 2019 Compared to First Nine Months of 2018
Net sales increased 12 percent, to $570 million, including a net increase of $86 million from Western Window Systems Gross profit grew 15 percent, to $204 million Net income decreased 7 percent, to $40 million Net income per diluted share decreased to $0.68, and adjusted net income per diluted share decreased to $0.73; both affected by the higher number of shares outstanding resulting from the Company’s 2018 equity offering Solid EBITDA growth of 9 percent driven by Western Window Systems and cost control in legacy business“While I’m disappointed in our overall performance, I am encouraged by Western Window Systems’ 11% sales growth year-over-year. As we pass the one-year mark since acquiring Western, we remain excited about expanding outside of Florida and into growing markets throughout the western United States,” said Jeff Jackson, President and Chief Executive Officer of PGT Innovations. “In the third quarter of last year, we saw record-setting growth as we experienced a significant lift from heightened consumer awareness and increased repair and remodeling activity after two major hurricanes. Relative to the prior year, our third quarter results reflect the expected decrease in repair and remodel sales and, to a lesser extent, new construction sales in our legacy business,” said Jackson.
“Although we achieved third quarter sales growth in our Western business, we are revising our full-year guidance lower due to the unfavorable sales impact from a decrease in orders and shipments caused by Hurricane Dorian, a continued heavy custom product mix for the Western business and increased investments in the Southeastern business expected to drive awareness of the benefits of our impact-resistant products, following the recent storm activity,” said Jackson. “We have recently taken specific actions expected to right-size our cost structure in line with current demand, which we believe will reduce annual operating costs by $4 million. Additionally, we expect to continue to benefit from the strength of our brands,” added Jackson.
“We ended the third quarter with a cash balance of $82 million and a trailing-twelve-month net debt-to-adjusted EBITDA ratio of 2.2 times, reflecting our focus on maintaining a strong and flexible balance sheet,” added Sherri Baker, Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer of PGT Innovations. “We also returned $5.5 million of capital to our shareholders through our opportunistic repurchases of our common stock within the quarter,” added Baker.

Forward-Looking Statements
Statements in this press release regarding our business that are not historical facts are “forward-looking statements” that involve risks and uncertainties which could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in the forward-looking statements. Such forward-looking statements generally can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology, such as “expected,” “excited,” “guidance,” “believe,” “expect,” “may,” “outlook,” “forecast,” “intend,” “could,” “project,” “estimate,” “anticipate,” “should,” “plan” and similar terminology. These risks and uncertainties include factors such as:
adverse changes in new home starts and home repair and remodeling trends, especially in the state of Florida, where the substantial portion of our sales are currently generated, and in the western United States, where the substantial portion of the sales of Western Window Systems’ operations are generated, and in the U.S. generally; macroeconomic conditions in Florida, where the substantial portion of our sales are generated, and in California, Texas, Arizona, Nevada, Colorado, Oregon, Washington and Hawaii, where the substantial portion of the sales of Western Window Systems are currently generated, and in the U.S. generally; our level of indebtedness, which increased in connection with our acquisition of Western Window Systems; the effects of increased expenses or unanticipated liabilities incurred as a result of, or due to activities related to, the Western Window Systems Acquisition; the risk that the anticipated cost savings, synergies, revenue enhancement strategies and other benefits expected from the Western Window Systems Acquisition may not be fully realized or may take longer to realize than expected or that our actual integration costs may exceed our estimates; raw material prices, especially for aluminum, glass and vinyl, including, price increases due to the implementation of tariffs and other trade-related restrictions; our dependence on a limited number of suppliers for certain of our key materials; sales fluctuations to and changes in our relationships with key customers; increases in bad debt owed to us by our customers in the event of a downturn in the home repair and remodeling or new home construction channels in our core markets and our inability to collect such debt; in addition to the Western Window Systems Acquisition, our ability to successfully integrate businesses we may acquire, or that any business we acquire may not perform as we expected at the time we acquired it; increases in transportation costs, including due to increases in fuel prices; our dependence on our impact-resistant product lines and contemporary indoor/outdoor window and door systems, and on consumer preferences for those types and styles of products; product liability and warranty claims brought against us; federal, state and local laws and regulations, including unfavorable changes in local building codes and environmental and energy code regulations; our dependence on our limited number of geographically concentrated manufacturing facilities; risks associated with our information technology systems, including cybersecurity-related risks, such as unauthorized intrusions into our systems by “hackers” and theft of data and information from our systems, and the risks that our information technology systems do not function as intended or experience temporary or long-term failures to perform as intended; and the risks and uncertainties discussed under Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 29, 2018.Statements in this press release that are forward-looking statements include, without limitation, our expectations regarding: (1) our expansion outside of Florida and into markets throughout the Western United States; (2) investments in our Southeast business to drive awareness of the benefits of our products; (3) the savings from our cost-reduction measures; (4) the strength of our balance sheet and the flexibility it provides to us; and (5) the updated 2019 financial performance guidance described in this press release. You are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this press release. Except as required by law, the Company undertakes no obligation to update these forward-looking statements to reflect subsequent events or circumstances from the date of this press release.
Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This press release and the financial schedules include financial measures and terms not calculated in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). We believe that presentation of non-GAAP measures such as adjusted net income, adjusted net income per share, and adjusted EBITDA provides investors and analysts with an alternative method for assessing our operating results in a manner that enables investors and analysts to more thoroughly evaluate our current performance compared to past performance. We also believe these non-GAAP measures provide investors with a better baseline for assessing our future earnings potential. The non-GAAP measures included in this press release are provided to give investors access to types of measures that we use in analyzing our results.
Adjusted net income consists of GAAP net income adjusted for the items included in the accompanying reconciliation. Adjusted net income per share consists of GAAP net income per share adjusted for the items included in the accompanying reconciliation. We believe these measures enable investors and analysts to more thoroughly evaluate our current performance as compared to the past performance and provide a better baseline for assessing the Company's future earnings potential. However, these measures do not provide a complete picture of our operations.
Adjusted EBITDA consists of net income, adjusted for the items included in the accompanying reconciliation. We believe that adjusted EBITDA provides useful information to investors and analysts about the Company's performance because they eliminate the effects of period-to-period changes in taxes, costs associated with capital investments and interest expense. Adjusted EBITDA does not give effect to the cash the Company must use to service its debt or pay its income taxes and thus does not reflect the actual funds generated from operations or available for capital investments.
Our calculations of adjusted net income and adjusted net income per share, and adjusted EBITDA are not necessarily comparable to calculations performed by other companies and reported as similarly titled measures. These non-GAAP measures should be considered in addition to results prepared in accordance with GAAP but should not be considered a substitute for or superior to GAAP measures. Schedules that reconcile adjusted net income, adjusted net income per share, and adjusted EBITDA to GAAP net income are included in the financial schedules accompanying this release.
Adjusted EBITDA as used in the calculation of the net debt-to-Adjusted EBITDA ratio, consists of our adjusted EBITDA as described above, but for the trailing twelve-month period, adjusted pursuant to the covenants contained in the 2016 Credit Agreement due 2022 for the acquisition of Western Window Systems.
