ST. LOUIS, May 9, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Energizer Holdings, Inc. (NYSE: ENR) today announced results for the second fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2022.
"I would like to recognize all Energizer colleagues around the world for their dedication to delivering another successful quarter. Our top-line performance exceeded expectations driven by successful pricing execution across our brands and strong organic growth in our auto care business," said Mark LaVigne, Chief Executive Officer. "Through pricing actions and improved supply chain performance, we continue to offset inflationary cost pressures and improve speed to market. As a result, we are increasing our outlook for top-line growth for the fiscal year while maintaining our outlook for adjusted earnings per share and EBITDA."
Top-Line Performance
For the quarter, we had Net sales of

- Organic Net sales increased
1.3% primarily driven by the following items: - Pricing executed in both the battery and auto care businesses drove an organic increase of approximately
5% ; and - New distribution across both battery and auto care, predominately in our International markets, contributed approximately
1% to organic growth. - In addition to the pricing and distribution gains, we experienced increased auto care volumes due to a shift in timing of refrigerant shipments from the third quarter to second quarter and higher than expected battery volumes. However the net volume impact was an approximate
4.5% decrease to organic sales as a result of lapping the elevated battery demand in the prior year; and - The Company exited the Russian market in the second quarter of fiscal 2022 which resulted in reduced sales of approximately
0.5% over the prior year quarter.
Gross Margin
Gross margin on a reported basis was

Adjusted gross margin - FY'21 (1) | ||
Product cost impacts | (8.6)% | |

Currency impact and other | ||
Adjusted gross margin - FY'22 (1) |
The Gross margin decrease was largely driven by a continuation of higher operating costs, including transportation, material and labor, consistent with ongoing inflationary trends. Partially offsetting these margin impacts was the positive impact of executed price increases in battery and auto care.
Selling, General and Administrative Expense (SG&A)
SG&A, excluding current year costs from exiting Russia and acquisition and integration costs in the prior year, for the second quarter was
Advertising and Promotion Expense (A&P)
A&P was
Earnings Per Share and Adjusted EBITDA | Second Quarter | ||
(In millions, except per share data) | 2022 | 2021 | |
Net earnings/(loss) | $ 19.0 | $ (10.2) | |
Diluted net earnings/(loss) per common share | $ 0.27 | $ (0.21) | |
Adjusted net earnings(1) | $ 33.3 | $ 56.8 | |
Adjusted diluted net earnings per common share(1) | $ 0.47 | $ 0.77 | |
Adjusted EBITDA(1) | $ 114.6 | $ 147.6 | |
The changes in Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted diluted net earnings per common share for the quarter reflect higher input costs which compressed the current period gross margin and slightly higher SG&A, partially offset by lower A&P spending. Adjusted diluted net earnings per common share benefited from lower interest and taxes in the current quarter as well.
Continued Return of Capital
- Common stock dividend payments in the quarter of approximately
$22.3 million , or$0.30 per common share. - During the quarter, the mandatory convertible preferred stock automatically converted to approximately 4,700,000 shares of common stock. Prior to the conversion, there were dividends paid of
$4.0 million , or$1.87 5 per share of mandatory convertible preferred stock, which had been declared in the first fiscal quarter.
Financial Outlook and Assumptions for Fiscal Year 2022(1)
We are increasing our previously communicated full year Net sales outlook to low single digit growth as we have delivered a strong first half performance and executed pricing initiatives across the globe which should further benefit sales. The current operating environment remains volatile, but as a result of our pricing actions and cost management efforts we are reaffirming our guidance for Adjusted earnings per share of

ENERGIZER HOLDINGS, INC.
Reconciliation of GAAP and Non-GAAP Measures
For the Quarter and Six Months Ended March 31, 2022
The Company reports its financial results in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. ("GAAP"). However, management believes that certain non-GAAP financial measures provide users with additional meaningful comparisons to the corresponding historical or future period. These non-GAAP financial measures exclude items that are not reflective of the Company's on-going operating performance, such as acquisition and integration costs, an acquisition earn out, the costs of exiting the Russian market and the loss on extinguishment of debt. In addition, these measures help investors to analyze year over year comparability when excluding currency fluctuations as well as other Company initiatives that are not on-going. We believe these non-GAAP financial measures are an enhancement to assist investors in understanding our business and in performing analysis consistent with financial models developed by research analysts. Investors should consider non-GAAP measures in addition to, not as a substitute for, or superior to, the comparable GAAP measures. In addition, these non-GAAP measures may not be the same as similar measures used by other companies due to possible differences in methods and in the items being adjusted.
We provide the following non-GAAP measures and calculations, as well as the corresponding reconciliation to the closest GAAP measure in the following supplemental schedules:
Segment Profit. This amount represents the operations of our two reportable segments including allocations for shared support functions. General corporate and other expenses, amortization expense, interest expense, loss on extinguishment of debt, other items, net, the charges related to acquisition and integration costs, including restructuring charges, an acquisition earn out and the costs of exiting the Russian market have all been excluded from segment profit.
Adjusted Net Earnings and Adjusted Diluted Net Earnings Per Common Share (EPS). These measures exclude the impact of the costs related to acquisition and integration, an acquisition earn out, the costs of exiting the Russian market and the loss on extinguishment of debt.
Non-GAAP Tax Rate. This is the tax rate when excluding the pre-tax impact of acquisition and integration costs, an acquisition earn out, the costs of exiting the Russian market and the loss on extinguishment of debt, as well as the related tax impact for these items, calculated utilizing the statutory rate for where the impact was incurred.
Organic. This is the non-GAAP financial measurement of the change in revenue or segment profit that excludes or otherwise adjusts for the change in Argentina operations and impact of currency from the changes in foreign currency exchange rates as defined below:
Change in Argentina Operations. The Company is presenting separately all changes in sales and segment profit from our Argentina affiliate due to the designation of the economy as highly inflationary as of July 1, 2018.
Impact of currency. The Company evaluates the operating performance of our Company on a currency neutral basis. The impact of currency is the difference between the value of current year foreign operations at the current period ending USD exchange rate, compared to the value of the current year foreign operations at the prior period ending USD exchange rate, as well as the impact of hedging on the currency fluctuation.
Adjusted Comparisons. Detail for adjusted gross profit, adjusted gross margin, adjusted SG&A, adjusted SG&A as percent of sales and adjusted Other items, net are also supplemental non-GAAP measure disclosures. These measures exclude the impact of costs related to acquisition and integration, an acquisition earn out and the costs of exiting the Russian market.
EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA. EBITDA is defined as net earnings before income tax provision, interest, loss on extinguishment of debt and depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA further excludes the impact of the costs related to acquisition and integration, acquisition earn out, the costs of exiting the Russian market and share-based payments.

Supplemental Schedules - Segment Information and Supplemental Sales Data
For the Quarter and Six Months Ended March 31, 2022
(In millions - Unaudited)
As of October 1, 2021, the Company has changed its reportable segments from two geographical segments, previously Americas and International, to two product groupings, Battery & Lights and Auto Care. This change came with the completion of the Spectrum Holdings, Inc. Battery and Auto Care Acquisition integrations in the first fiscal quarter of 2022. The Company changed its reporting structure to better reflect what the chief operating decision maker is reviewing to make organizational decisions and resource allocations. The Company has recast the information for the quarter and six months ended March 31, 2021 to align with this presentation.
Energizer's operating model includes a combination of standalone and shared business functions between the product segments, varying by country and region of the world. Shared functions include the sales and marketing functions, as well as human resources, IT and finance shared service costs. Energizer applies a fully allocated cost basis, in which shared business functions are allocated between segments. Such allocations are estimates, and do not represent the costs of such services if performed on a standalone basis. Segment sales and profitability, as well as the reconciliation to earnings before income taxes for the quarters and six months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, are presented below:
