COLMAR, Pa., July 29, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Dorman Products, Inc. (the “Company” or “Dorman”) (NASDAQ:DORM), a leading supplier in the automotive aftermarket industry, today announced its financial results for the second quarter ended June 27, 2020.

2^nd Quarter Financial Results
The Company reported second quarter 2020 net sales of $233.2 million, down 8.3% compared to net sales of $254.2 million in the second quarter of 2019. While customer orders dropped significantly in April 2020 due to government-imposed restrictions designed to slow the spread of COVID-19, the Company saw a rapid recovery as the quarter progressed with May orders flat to the prior year period and June orders up significantly above the prior year period. The total estimated negative impact of COVID-19 on net sales was approximately 14% to 16% in the second quarter.

Gross profit was $79.1 million in the second quarter of 2020 compared to $87.1 million for the same quarter last year. Gross margin for the second quarter was 33.9% compared to 34.3% in the same quarter last year. Adjusted gross margin* was 34.1% in the second quarter compared to 34.3% in the same quarter last year. Gross margin and adjusted gross margin were lower primarily due to incremental costs associated with COVID-19, including costs related to safety measures implemented at our sites and our COVID-19 sick leave policy.

Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses were $61.5 million, or 26.4% of net sales, in the second quarter of 2020 compared to $59.9 million, or 23.6% of net sales, in the same quarter last year. Adjusted SG&A expenses* were $60.3 million, or 25.9% of net sales, in the quarter compared to $59.0 million, or 23.2% of net sales, in the same quarter last year. Approximately 220 bps of the increase in SG&A as a percentage of net sales was due to decreased leverage resulting from the $21 million decline in net sales compared to the second quarter of 2019. SG&A as a percentage of net sales also increased 180 bps due to $4.2 million of incremental out-of-pocket costs directly related to COVID-19 incurred in the second quarter, primarily from factoring costs, costs related to safety measures at our sites, and our COVID-19 sick leave policy. These increases in SG&A as a percentage of net sales were offset by cost savings primarily from productivity improvements in our Portland, TN distribution facility, as well as reduced travel expenses.  In the second quarter, we marked the one-year anniversary since we began consolidation activities at our Portland distribution facility, and productivity levels at that facility have improved and costs are returning to typical levels, in-line with our expectations.

Income tax expense was $3.4 million in the second quarter of 2020, or 19.9% of income before income taxes compared to $5.8 million, or 21.1% of income before income taxes, recorded in the same quarter last year. The decrease in effective tax rate in the second quarter is primarily related to an equity method investment converted to a consolidated subsidiary, which occurred in the first quarter of 2020.

Net income for the second quarter of 2020 was $13.9 million, or $0.43 per diluted share, compared to $21.5 million, or $0.66 per diluted share, for the same quarter last year. Adjusted net income* in the second quarter was $15.2 million, or $0.47 per diluted share, compared to $22.2 million, or $0.68 per diluted share, in the prior year quarter.

Kevin Olsen, Dorman Products’ President and Chief Executive Officer, stated, “I want to first thank all of our contributors for their extraordinary work during these unprecedented times. Their health and safety, and that of our business partners and customers, remains our utmost priority and I am proud of our contributors’ dedication and focus on execution despite the challenges from the pandemic. A great example of this is our contributors’ extraordinary efforts to ensure that the launch of the previously announced major premium chassis program we won with a large national customer remained on schedule and began shipping in June. Our solid performance in the second quarter underscores the resiliency of our business and the industry in which we operate. While our results in April were impacted as expected by stay-at-home orders and government restrictions across the country, our performance improved significantly as we moved through the quarter. Order rates bottomed out in late April and improved steadily throughout the remainder of the quarter with June year-over-year growth rates being up high teens, which continued through July, led by strong “Do-It-Yourself” consumer demand. Also, despite the pandemic, we continued to make progress on our strategic initiatives in the quarter, as Heavy Duty net sales performed in line with the rest of the business and finished the second quarter with strong growth in the month of June, and our innovation teams continued to develop new products and solutions for our customer base. Further, we maintained disciplined cost control and are pleased to report that our Portland distribution center costs are normalizing.”

*Non-GAAP measures.  See Non-GAAP Financial Measures supplemental schedules for further discussion and reconciliation to the most directly comparable GAAP measure.

COVID-19: Business Impact Update
The safety and health of our contributors, business partners and customers remain our top priority. As a designated essential business, our facilities have been open and operating during the initial phase of the government-imposed shutdowns and have continued operating as those restrictions have changed or been lifted. We are maintaining stringent sanitization practices and safety measures to promote the wellbeing of our contributors in all of our facilities, while our administrative contributors continue to work remotely, where applicable. We are closely monitoring updates from local, state and federal authorities, and will adjust our operations as necessary.

Our balance sheet remains healthy and strong, and, as we have continued to assess the impact of COVID-19 on our business, we have taken the following actions:

• During the second quarter of 2020, we increased the typical level of receivables collected under our factoring program by $163 million, incurring an additional $3.3 million in factoring cost above typical levels, to bolster our liquidity;
• We continued to adjust operating costs by limiting non-essential operating expenses, adjusting labor hours to align with demand levels where possible, and deferring capital expenditures where we have deemed appropriate to do so; and
• Early in the third quarter of 2020, we repaid the $99 million outstanding under our revolving line of credit that had been drawn down in March 2020 to enhance our liquidity.

As a result of these actions, Dorman generated $201 million of cash from operating activities in the second quarter of 2020, and, as of July 28, 2020, had no amounts drawn under its revolving credit agreement (excluding $0.8 million of issued but undrawn letters of credit) and approximately $230 million in cash and cash equivalents.

During the second quarter, we estimate that we incurred $4.9 million of incremental out-of-pocket costs related to COVID-19, primarily from factoring, costs related to safety measures implemented at our sites, our COVID-19 sick leave policy, and interest on our revolving line of credit, with $0.5 million impacting gross profit, $4.2 million impacting SG&A, and $0.2 million impacting interest expense. 

The Company estimates that the negative impact on second quarter results from the COVID-19 pandemic to be approximately 14% to 16% on net sales, and $0.35 to $0.40 of diluted earnings per share, primarily due to the decline in net sales and out-of-pocket costs, mainly increased factoring to strengthen our balance sheet.

Mr. Olsen continued, “During the second and beginning of the third quarter, Dorman took a number of proactive measures to maintain what we believe is a best-in-class balance sheet and liquidity position, which, when combined with our asset-light model, position us well to manage potential headwinds related to the COVID-19 crisis and operate under a number of economic scenarios. While the overall environment remains uncertain, I am extremely pleased with our results for the quarter and the continued strong demand levels we’ve seen through July.  Our contributors have shown great resiliency and we look forward to continuing to play our part in the critical task of keeping cars on the road.”

2020 Guidance
Due to the ongoing uncertainty of the economic environment, it remains difficult to determine the full impact that the pandemic will have on overall demand and Dorman’s operations. Therefore, Dorman is not providing guidance for the remainder of fiscal 2020 at this time.

Share Repurchases
Dorman has temporarily halted its share repurchase program as it navigates uncertainty in the COVID-19 environment and did not repurchase any shares during the second quarter of 2020. However, the Company may resume the repurchase program at any time when the Company believes it is prudent to do so and without further notice.

Such forward-looking statements are based on current expectations that involve a number of known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors (many of which are outside of our control) which may cause actual events to be materially different from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
(in thousands, except per-share amounts)

Our financial results include certain financial measures not derived in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP).  Non-GAAP financial measures should not be used as a substitute for GAAP measures, or considered in isolation, for the purpose of analyzing our operating performance, financial position or cash flows.  Additionally, these non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.  However, we have presented these non-GAAP financial measures because we believe this presentation, when reconciled to the corresponding GAAP measure, provides useful information to investors by offering additional ways of viewing our results, profitability trends, and underlying growth relative to prior and future periods and to our peers.  Management uses these Non-GAAP financial measures in making financial, operating, and planning decisions and in evaluating our performance.  Non-GAAP financial measures may reflect adjustments for charges such as fair value adjustments, amortization, transaction costs, severance, accelerated depreciation, and other similar expenses related to acquisitions as well as other items that we believe are not related to our ongoing performance.

[1] – Pretax acquisition-related inventory fair value adjustments result from adjusting the value of acquired inventory from historical cost to fair value. Such costs were $0.1 million pretax (or $0.1 million after tax) during the thirteen weeks ended June 27, 2020, and $0.2 million pretax (or $0.2 million after tax) during the twenty-six weeks ended June 27, 2020 and were included in Cost of Goods Sold. Such costs were $0.1 million pretax (or $0.1 million after tax) during the twenty-six weeks ended June 29, 2019 and were included in Cost of Goods Sold.

[2] – Pretax acquisition-related intangible asset amortization results from allocating the purchase price of acquisitions to the acquired tangible and intangible assets of the acquired business and recognizing the cost of the intangible asset over the period of benefit.  Such costs were $0.8 million pretax (or $0.6 million after tax) during the thirteen weeks ended June 27, 2020  and $1.6 million pretax (or $1.2 million after tax) during the twenty-six weeks ended June 27, 2020 and were included in Selling, General and Administrative expenses. Such costs were $0.6 million pretax (or $0.5 million after tax) during the thirteen weeks ended June 29, 2019, and $1.2 million pretax (or $0.9 million after tax) during the twenty-six weeks ended June 29, 2019 and were included in Selling, General and Administrative expenses.
