FLOWERS FOODS, INC. REPORTS SECOND QUARTER 2023 RESULTS

THOMASVILLE, Ga.,  Aug. 10, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Flowers Foods, Inc. (NYSE: FLO) today reported financial results for the company's 12-week fiscal second quarter ended July 15, 2023.

Second Quarter Summary:

Compared to the prior year second quarter where applicable

• Sales increased 8.8% to a second quarter-record $1.228 billion.
• Net income increased 18.8% to $63.8 million. Adjusted net income(1) increased 8.8% to $70.9 million.
• Adjusted EBITDA(1) increased 10.9% to $133.1 million, representing 10.8% of sales, a 20-basis point increase.
• Diluted EPS increased $0.05 to $0.30. Adjusted diluted EPS(1) increased $0.02 to $0.33. 

CEO's Remarks:

"Flowers' record second quarter sales were driven by the effectiveness of our portfolio strategy and strong execution by our team," said Ryals McMullian, chairman, CEO, and president of Flowers Foods. "Our Branded Retail business performed well in a competitive environment, characterized by continued, but moderating, consumer trade down to private label products. We're also pleased to have grown sales and profitability in our Other category, as price increases to mitigate inflationary pressure more than offset business rationalizations and cost increases. To reflect this strong second quarter performance, we are adjusting our fiscal 2023 guidance.

"Consumers continue to seek value, though we are seeing some early indications that they may be acclimating to higher prices and reverting toward prior purchasing behavior. To capitalize on this environment and spur future growth, we remain focused on bringing new and innovative products to market and implementing initiatives to increase productivity and efficiencies. One such growth opportunity, the nationwide launch of our Dave's Killer Bread Snack Bars, remains on track, and we are excited about their potential to expand our brands into additional categories. To drive margin improvement, we are executing on cost savings initiatives and the deployment of our enterprise resource planning upgrade and other digital initiatives. As always, our dedicated Flowers team is focused on maximizing shareholder value and driving results in line with our long-term financial targets."

For the 52-week Fiscal 2023, the Company Expects:

• Sales in the range of approximately $5.095 billion to $5.141 billion, representing an increase of approximately 6.0% to 7.0% compared to the prior year period. Prior guidance called for sales of approximately $5.086 billion to $5.141 billion.
• Adjusted EBITDA(2) in the range of approximately $503 million to $528 million, compared to prior guidance of $494 million to $528 million.
• Adjusted diluted EPS(2) in the range of approximately $1.18 to $1.25, compared to prior guidance of $1.15 to $1.25.

The company's outlook is based on the following assumptions:

• Depreciation and amortization in the range of $155 million to $160 million, compared to prior guidance of $160 million to $165 million
• Net interest expense of approximately $16 million to $18 million, compared to prior guidance of $9 million to $13 million
• An effective tax rate of approximately 24%, compared to prior guidance of approximately 25%
• Weighted average diluted share count for the year of approximately 213 million shares
• Capital expenditures in the range of $145 million to $155 million, with $30 million to $40 million related to the ERP upgrade, compared to prior guidance of $140 million to $150 million

Consolidated Second Quarter Operating Highlights

Compared to the prior year second quarter where applicable

• Sales increased 8.8% to $1.228 billion, a second quarter record. Pricing/mix(3) increased 13.3%, volume(4) declined 6.1%, and the Papa Pita acquisition added 1.6%.
• Branded Retail sales increased $52.0 million or 7.1% to $787.8 million due to higher prices intended to offset inflationary pressures, improved mix from greater branded organic product sales, and the acquisition contribution, partially offset by volume declines. Pricing/mix(3) rose 7.1%, volume(4) declined 1.5%, and the Papa Pita acquisition added 1.5%.
• Other sales increased $47.0 million or 11.9% to $440.3 million due to substantial price increases implemented prior to the second quarter of fiscal 2023 intended to offset inflationary pressures, and the acquisition contribution, partially offset by volume declines. Pricing/mix(3) rose 20.6%, volume(4) declined 10.5%, and the Papa Pita acquisition added 1.8%.
• Materials, supplies, labor, and other production costs (exclusive of depreciation and amortization) were 51.0% of sales, a 90-basis point decrease. These costs decreased as a percentage of sales due to inflation-driven pricing actions more than offsetting input cost inflation, lower production volumes, increased product returns, and increased maintenance costs.
• Selling, distribution, and administrative (SD&A) expenses were 38.8% of sales, in line with the prior year period. Lower consulting costs and distributor distribution fees as a percentage of sales were offset by greater marketing expenses, reduced scrap dough income, and an insurance liability reserve. Excluding matters affecting comparability, adjusted SD&A expenses were 38.2% of sales, a 70-basis point increase, due to the factors listed above with the exception of the consulting costs.
• Depreciation and amortization (D&A) expenses were $35.0 million, or 2.8% of sales, a 10-basis point decrease.
• Net income increased 18.8% to $63.8 million due to all the factors mentioned above, net of higher interest expense and effective tax rate. Adjusted net income(1) increased 8.8% to $70.9 million.
• Adjusted EBITDA(1) increased 10.9% to $133.1 million, representing 10.8% of sales, a 20-basis point increase.

Cash Flow, Capital Allocation, and Capital Return

Year-to-date, through the end of the second quarter of fiscal 2023, cash flow from operating activities decreased by $54.9 million to $128.9 million, capital expenditures decreased $29.5 million to $68.4 million, and dividends paid to shareholders increased $4.7 million to $98.1 million. Cash and cash equivalents were $11.7 million at the end of the second quarter of fiscal 2023.

 

(1)	Adjusted for items affecting comparability. See reconciliations of non-GAAP measures in the financial statements following this release.
(2)	No reconciliation of the forecasted range for Adjusted diluted EPS to Diluted EPS and adjusted EBITDA to net income for the 52-week Fiscal 2023 is included in this press release because the company is unable to quantify certain amounts that would be required to be included in the GAAP measure without unreasonable efforts. In addition, the company believes such reconciliations would imply a degree of precision that would be confusing or misleading to investors.
(3)	Calculated as (current year period units X change in price per unit) / prior year period sales dollars
(4)	Calculated as (prior year period price per unit X change in units) / prior year period sales dollars

The foregoing list of important factors does not include all such factors, nor  does it necessarily present them in order of importance. In addition, you should consult other disclosures made by the company (such as in our other filings with the SEC or in company press releases) for other factors that may cause actual results to differ materially from those projected by the company. Refer to Part I, Item 1A., Risk Factors, of the Form 10-K, Part II, Item 1A., Risk Factors, of the Form 10-Q for the quarter ended July 15, 2023 and subsequent filings with the SEC for additional information regarding factors that could affect the company's results of operations, financial condition and liquidity. We caution you not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements, as they speak only as of the date made and are inherently uncertain.

You are advised, however, to consult any further public disclosures by the company (such as in our filings with the SEC or in company press releases) on related subjects.

Information Regarding Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The company prepares its consolidated financial statements in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP). However, from time to time, the company may present in its public statements, press releases and SEC filings, non-GAAP financial measures such as, EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, adjusted net income, adjusted diluted EPS, adjusted income tax expense, adjusted selling, distribution and administrative expenses (SD&A), and gross margin excluding depreciation and amortization. The reconciliations attached provide reconciliations of the non-GAAP measures used in this presentation or release to the most comparable GAAP financial measure. The company's definitions of these non-GAAP measures may differ from similarly titled measures used by others. These non-GAAP measures should be considered supplemental to, and not a substitute for, financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP.

The company defines EBITDA as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization. Earnings are net income. The company believes that EBITDA is a useful tool for managing the operations of its business and is an indicator of the company's ability to incur and service indebtedness and generate free cash flow. EBITDA is used as the primary performance measure in the company's 2014 Omnibus Equity and Incentive Compensation Plan. Furthermore, pursuant to the terms of our credit facility, EBITDA is used to determine the company's compliance with certain financial covenants. The company also believes that EBITDA measures are commonly reported and widely used by investors and other interested parties as measures of a company's operating performance and debt servicing ability because EBITDA measures assist in comparing performance on a consistent basis without regard to depreciation or amortization, which can vary significantly depending upon accounting methods and non-operating factors (such as historical cost). EBITDA is also a widely-accepted financial indicator of a company's ability to incur and service indebtedness.

EBITDA should not be considered an alternative to (a) income from operations or net income (loss) as a measure of operating performance; (b) cash flows provided by operating, investing and financing activities (as determined in accordance with GAAP) as a measure of the company's ability to meet its cash needs; or (c) any other indicator of performance or liquidity that has been determined in accordance with GAAP.

The company defines adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, adjusted net income, adjusted diluted EPS, adjusted income tax expense and adjusted SD&A, respectively, to exclude additional costs that the company considers important to present to investors. These costs include, but are not limited to, the costs of closing a plant or costs associated with acquisition-related activities, certain impairment charges, legal settlements and other costs impacting past and future comparability. The company believes that these measures, when considered together with its GAAP financial results, provides management and investors with a more complete understanding of its business operating results, including underlying trends, by excluding the effects of certain charges.

Presentation of gross margin includes depreciation and amortization in the materials, supplies, labor and other production costs according to GAAP. Our method of presenting gross margin excludes the depreciation and amortization components, as discussed above.

The reconciliations attached provide reconciliations of the non-GAAP measures used in this presentation or release to the most comparable GAAP financial measure.
