PGT Innovations Reports 2020 Second Quarter Results

PGT Innovations, Inc., 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 second quarter ended July 4, 2020.

Financial Highlights for Second Quarter 2020 compared to Second Quarter 2019

– Net sales increased 2 percent, to $203 million, including $23 million from our NewSouth acquisition
– Gross profit increased 2 percent, to $74 million
– Net income decreased 87 percent, to $2 million, negatively impacted by an $8 million non-cash impairment charge and $4 million in costs and charges relating to our Florida facilities consolidation, both before tax-effect
– Net income per diluted share decreased 86 percent, to $0.04, and adjusted net income per diluted share decreased 34 percent, to $0.21
– Adjusted EBITDA decreased 15 percent, to $35 million

“Our sales results for the quarter exceeded our internal forecasts, reflecting what we believe is solid demand recovery as the economy reopens,” said Jeff Jackson, President and Chief Executive Officer. “While our organic sales were down 9 percent compared to the prior-year quarter, June order entry for our legacy businesses was up 13 percent versus June in the prior-year and also showed sequential improvement. Our subsidiary NewSouth Window Solutions, which we acquired earlier this year, had a strong quarter, contributing $23 million of revenue and growing orders more than 80 percent compared to the prior-year quarter.”

“While we continue to face macro-economic headwinds in our core Western markets due to the pandemic, solid demand exists in the market for our impact-resistant windows and doors, particularly now that we have entered hurricane season,” added Jackson. “Our ability to capture sales growth in a challenging market is also the result of an overarching strategy of continuous improvement and strong execution of our selling initiatives in recent quarters that are having a favorable impact on our current strength in the market.”

“Adjusted EBITDA decreased by 15 percent to $35 million, driven by lower sales in our organic business and less favorable product mix for the quarter, although we continue to achieve lower direct labor costs and improved operating efficiencies,” said Sherri Baker, Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer. “We recently completed the consolidation of our Orlando, Florida manufacturing facility in order to further improve our operational efficiency, and we expect annual operating expense savings of approximately $3.5 million going forward. We’ve made meaningful progress in improving our Western business unit’s direct labor and distribution costs, driving a 140-basis point improvement in each category versus the prior year quarter. However, due to the impacts of the pandemic on the economy and our sales in the west, we recorded a non-cash impairment charge in the second quarter relating to our Western Window Systems trade name.”

“We believe our balance sheet is strong, and we continue to deliver solid free cash flow. We ended the second quarter with total liquidity of $174 million, including a cash balance of $98 million and undrawn revolver capacity of $76 million. Given our cash position and overall liquidity, since the end of our second quarter of 2020, we made voluntary prepayments of borrowings under the term loan totaling $10 million,” added Ms. Baker. “However, because of the difficulty in making longer term forecasts in this environment, we intend to maintain a conservative position towards our capital allocation priorities and preserve cash by reducing discretionary costs and capital expenditures.”

“In lieu of giving guidance for the remainder of the year, we are providing a limited outlook for the quarter ahead. We expect our third quarter 2020 consolidated net sales, inclusive of NewSouth, to increase in the range of 14 to 19 percent as compared to the prior year, reflecting the strength of our order entries during the back half of the second quarter and into July,” concluded Baker.

“I am extremely proud of all our employees for doing an excellent job delivering high-quality products and services for our customers during this difficult period, when all have been personally affected by the COVID-19 pandemic and related lockdowns, and we have demonstrated our commitment to the safety of our team and customers by our willingness to continue to invest in protecting against this threat,” added Jackson. “We believe we are well positioned to continue our growth trajectory by expanding the markets we serve and offering high-quality innovative products as the economy continues to recover.”
