Third Quarter Fiscal 2022 Results

Net sales for the third quarter fiscal 2022 increased 41.6% to $534.7 million compared to the prior-year period. The number of U.S. factory-built homes sold in the third quarter fiscal 2022 increased 9.2% to 5,832 compared to the prior year third quarter, because of strong demand and increased production levels. The average selling price per U.S. home sold increased 31.7% to $83,000 due to price increases in response to rising material costs and labor. The number of Canadian factory-built homes sold in the quarter increased to 336 homes compared to 318 homes in the prior-year period due to stronger demand and improved production levels. Total backlog for Skyline Champion was $1.5 billion as of January 1, 2022 compared to $488.5 million as of December 26, 2020. Backlog growth was driven by strong order levels that continue to outpace production, which is operating at less than full capacity in part due to supply chain availability as well as increased pricing and the acquisition of ScotBilt Homes, LLC and related companies.

Gross profit increased by 119.0% to $157.2 million in the third quarter fiscal 2022 compared to the prior-year period. Gross profit margin was 29.4% of net sales, a 1,040 basis point expansion compared to 19.0% in the third quarter fiscal 2021. The increase in the gross profit margin was driven by higher sales growth due to higher volume, pricing, and operating efficiencies.

Selling, general, and administrative expenses (“SG&A”) in the third quarter fiscal 2022 increased to $65.8 million from $44.3 million in the same period last year. SG&A as a percentage of net sales increased 60 basis points to 12.3%. Improved operations lead to higher production levels and fixed cost leverage during the quarter, partially offsetting higher expenses from variable compensation and the ongoing investments in the enhanced customer buying experience and supporting digital platform.

Net income increased by 213.1% to $67.6 million for the third quarter fiscal 2022 compared to the prior-year period. The increase in net income was mainly driven by the increase in sales volume, pricing, and operating leverage.

Adjusted EBITDA for the third quarter fiscal 2022 increased by 201.4% to $96.7 million compared to the third quarter fiscal 2021 primarily driven by an increase in net sales and improved profitability. Adjusted EBITDA margin expanded by 960 basis points to 18.1% due to higher sales growth, operational improvements, and leverage of fixed costs.

Operating cash flow for the third quarter fiscal 2022 increased 88.9% to $75.5 million compared to the third quarter fiscal 2021. As of January 1, 2022, Skyline Champion had $382.1 million of cash and cash equivalents.

Presentation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In addition to the results provided in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) throughout this press release, Skyline Champion has provided non-GAAP financial measures, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin, which present operating results on a basis adjusted for certain items. Skyline Champion uses these non-GAAP financial measures for business planning purposes and in measuring its performance relative to that of its competitors. Skyline Champion believes that these non-GAAP financial measures are useful financial metrics to assess its operating performance from period-to-period by excluding certain items that Skyline Champion believes are not representative of its core business. These non-GAAP financial measures are not intended to replace, and should not be considered superior to, the presentation of Skyline Champion’s financial results in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

Skyline Champion defines Adjusted EBITDA as net income or loss plus (a) the provision for income taxes, (b) interest expense, net, (c) depreciation and amortization, (d) gain or loss from discontinued operations, (e) equity-based compensation awards granted before December 31, 2018, (f) restructuring charges, (g) impairment of assets, and (h) other non-operating costs including those for the acquisition and integration of businesses. Adjusted EBITDA is not a measure of earnings calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP, and should not be considered an alternative to, or more meaningful than, net income or loss, net sales, operating income or earnings per share prepared on a U.S. GAAP basis. Skyline Champion believes that Adjusted EBITDA is commonly used by investors to evaluate its performance and that of its competitors. However, Skyline Champion’s use of Adjusted EBITDA may vary from that of others in its industry. Adjusted EBITDA is reconciled from the respective measure under U.S. GAAP in the tables below. Adjusted EBITDA Margin is calculated as Adjusted EBITDA divided by net sales reported in the statement of operations.
