RICHMOND, Va.--()--Performance Food Group Company (“PFG” or the “Company”) (NYSE: PFGC) today announced its first-quarter fiscal 2021 business results.

I am very pleased with our first-quarter results as the organization continues to take market share and prove its resiliency,” said George Holm, PFG’s Chairman, President & Chief Executive Officer. “Our Foodservice segment once again outperformed the industry, particularly in the independent restaurant channel. The integration of Reinhart has progressed smoothly and Vistar, despite its exposure to some of the hardest hit channels, has remained profitable due to strength in the convenience store channel. Our associates are engaged and winning new business every day, solidifying our position in the food distribution industry. Our organization has done an outstanding job managing costs and the balance sheet to put us in a strong financial position for the current operating environment.”

 

This earnings release includes several metrics, including EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Diluted EPS and Free Cash Flow that are not calculated in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in the U.S. (“GAAP”). Please see “Statement Regarding Non-GAAP Financial Measures” at the end of this release for the definitions of such non-GAAP financial measures and reconciliations of such non-GAAP financial measures to their respective most comparable financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP.

First-Quarter Fiscal 2021 Financial Summary

Total case volume increased 8.9% for the first quarter of fiscal 2021 compared to the prior year period. Total case volume included Reinhart Foodservice, LLC (“Reinhart”) and a 28.0% increase in independent cases. Excluding the impact of the Reinhart acquisition, case volume declined 17.5% and independent cases declined 6.3% in the first quarter of fiscal 2021 compared to the prior year period.

Net sales for the first quarter of fiscal 2021 grew 12.9% to $7.0 billion compared to the prior year period. The increase in net sales was primarily attributable to the acquisition of Reinhart, partially offset by the effects of the novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”) pandemic. The acquisition of Reinhart contributed $1,457.5 million to net sales for the first three months of fiscal 2021. Overall food cost inflation was approximately 1.5%.

Gross profit for the first quarter of fiscal 2021 increased 14.6% to $815.5 million as compared to the prior year period. The gross profit increase was led by the acquisition of Reinhart, partially offset by the current environment surrounding the outbreak of COVID-19. For the first three months of fiscal 2021, the Company recorded a total of $11.9 million of inventory write-offs primarily as a result of the impact of COVID-19 on our operations, which is a $5.7 million increase from the first three months of fiscal 2020. Gross margin as a percentage of net sales was 11.6% for the first quarter of fiscal 2021 compared to 11.4% for the prior year period.

Operating expenses rose by 20.3% to $779.7 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2021 compared to the prior year period. The increase in operating expenses was primarily due to the acquisition of Reinhart. In the first quarter of fiscal 2021, the Company recorded a benefit of $2.7 million related to reserves for expected credit losses as compared to bad debt expense of $3.6 million for the first quarter of 2020. The increase in operating expenses was partially offset by decreases in personnel expenses, fuel expense, travel expenses, professional fees, and contingent consideration accretion expense compared to the prior year period.

The first quarter of fiscal 2021 resulted in a net loss of $0.7 million compared to net income of $36.1 million in the prior year period. The decline was primarily a result of the $27.7 million decrease in operating profit and a $21.5 million increase in interest expense, partially offset by a $11.4 million decrease in income tax expense. The effective tax rate in the first quarter of fiscal 2021 was approximately 64.7% compared to 21.9% in the first quarter of fiscal 2020. The increase in the tax rate was due to the increase of non-deductible expenses and discrete items as a percentage of book income, which was significantly lower than the book income for the prior year period.

EBITDA increased 12.0% to $118.9 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2021 compared to the prior year period. For the quarter, Adjusted EBITDA rose 5.9% to $135.2 million compared to the prior year period.

Diluted loss per share was $0.01 in the first quarter of fiscal 2021 compared to diluted EPS of $0.34 in the prior year period. Adjusted Diluted EPS decreased 56.1% to $0.25 per share in the first quarter compared to Adjusted Diluted EPS of $0.57 per share in the prior year period.

Cash Flow and Capital Spending

In the first quarter of fiscal 2021, PFG used $132.0 million in cash flow from operating activities compared to $84.2 million of cash flow provided by operating activities in the prior year period. The decline in cash flow from operating activities was largely driven by the payment of $117.3 million contingent consideration related to the acquisition of Eby-Brown Company LLC and investments in working capital. For the first quarter of fiscal 2021, PFG invested $40.8 million in capital expenditures, an increase of $18.0 million versus the prior year period. PFG delivered negative free cash flow of $172.8 million1 compared to positive free cash flow of $61.4 million versus the prior year period.

First-Quarter Fiscal 2021 Segment Results

Foodservice

First-quarter net sales for Foodservice increased 28.1% to $5.0 billion compared to the prior year period. This increase in net sales was driven by the Reinhart acquisition, as well as an increase in selling price per case as a result of inflation. Reinhart contributed $1,457.5 million of net sales during the first three months of fiscal 2021. For the first quarter of fiscal 2021, independent sales as a percentage of total segment sales were 35.5%.

First-quarter EBITDA for Foodservice increased 50.2% to $156.2 million compared to the prior year period. Gross profit increased 33.1% in the first quarter of fiscal 2021 compared to the prior year period as a result of the Reinhart acquisition. The increase was partially offset by the decline in case volume and net sales discussed above. For the first three months of fiscal 2021, Foodservice recorded $8.1 million of inventory write-offs primarily due to the impact of COVID-19, which is an increase of $2.8 million over the prior year. Operating expenses, excluding depreciation and amortization, for Foodservice increased 28.6% for the first three months of fiscal 2021 compared to the prior year period as a result of the acquisition of Reinhart. In the first quarter of fiscal 2021, Foodservice recorded a benefit of $6.2 million related to reserves for expected credit losses compared to bad debt expense of $2.8 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2020. The increase in operating expenses was also partially offset by decreases in personnel and fuel expenses as compared to the prior year period.

Vistar

For the first quarter of fiscal 2021, net sales for Vistar decreased 13.2% to $2.0 billion compared to the prior year period. This decrease was driven by the continued economic effects of the COVID-19 pandemic.

First-quarter EBITDA for Vistar decreased 77.3% to $11.7 million versus the prior year period. Gross profit decline of 29.6% for the first quarter of fiscal 2021 compared to the prior year period was fueled by the current economic environment due to COVID-19. For the first three months of fiscal 2021, Vistar recorded $3.8 million of inventory write-offs primarily as a result of the current economic environment due to COVID-19, which is an increase of $2.8 million compared to the prior year period. Operating expenses decreased primarily as a result of the decrease in sales volume, decreases in personnel and fuel expenses, and a reduction in contingent consideration accretion expense as compared to the prior year period. In the first quarter of fiscal 2021, Vistar recorded a total of $3.5 million of bad debt expense related to expected credit losses for customer receivables due to the impact of COVID-19, which represents an increase of $2.7 million compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2020.

Statement Regarding Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This earnings release and the accompanying financial statement tables include several financial measures that are not calculated in accordance with GAAP, including EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Free Cash Flow and Adjusted Diluted EPS. Such measures are not recognized terms under GAAP, should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures prepared in accordance with GAAP, and are not indicative of net income as determined under GAAP. EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Free Cash Flow, Adjusted Diluted EPS and other non-GAAP financial measures have limitations that should be considered before using these measures to evaluate the PFG’s liquidity or financial performance. EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Free Cash Flow and Adjusted Diluted EPS, as presented, may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies because of varying methods of calculation.

Management measures operating performance based on PFG’s EBITDA, defined as net income before interest expense, interest income, income taxes, and depreciation and amortization.

PFG believes that the presentation of EBITDA enhances an investor’s understanding of PFG’s performance. PFG believes this measure is a useful metric to assess PFG’s operating performance from period to period by excluding certain items that PFG believes are not representative of PFG’s core business. PFG also uses this measure to evaluate the performance of its segments and for business planning purposes.

In addition, management uses Adjusted EBITDA, defined as net income before interest expense, interest income, income and franchise taxes, and depreciation and amortization, further adjusted to exclude certain items we do not consider part of our core operating results. Such adjustments include certain unusual, non-cash, non-recurring, cost reduction and other adjustment items permitted in calculating covenant compliance under the PFG’s credit agreement and indenture (other than certain pro forma adjustments permitted under our credit agreement and indenture relating to the Adjusted EBITDA contribution of acquired entities or businesses prior to the acquisition date). Under PFG’s credit agreement and indenture, PFG’s ability to engage in certain activities such as incurring certain additional indebtedness, making certain investments and making restricted payments is tied to ratios based on Adjusted EBITDA (as defined in the credit agreement and indenture).

Management also uses Free Cash Flow, which is defined as net cash provided by operating activities less capital expenditures (purchases of property, plant and equipment). PFG also believes that the presentation of Free Cash Flow enhances an investor’s understanding of PFG’s ability to make strategic investments and manage debt levels.

Management also uses Adjusted Diluted EPS, which is calculated by adjusting the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure by excluding the same items excluded in PFG’s calculation of Adjusted EBITDA, as well as certain one-time income tax items, to the extent that each such item was included in the applicable GAAP financial measure.

PFG believes that the presentation of Adjusted EBITDA, Free Cash Flow and Adjusted Diluted EPS is useful to investors because these metrics provide insight into underlying business trends and year-over-year results and are frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in their evaluation of the operating performance of companies in PFG’s industry.

The following tables include a reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures to the applicable most comparable GAAP financial measures.
