MIDDLETON, Wis.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Spectrum Brands Holdings, Inc. (NYSE: SPB; “Spectrum Brands” or the “Company”), a leading global branded consumer products and home essentials company focused on driving innovation and providing exceptional customer service, today reported results from continuing operations for the third quarter of fiscal 2023 ended July 2, 2023.

“I am proud of our global Spectrum Brands team for all their efforts and tireless dedication to the Company. We have been challenged by a number of unanticipated developments throughout this year, including lower consumer demand resulting in significant sales volatility to our retail customers, cooler weather in the third quarter exacerbating this trend for our Home and Garden business, and the DOJ lawsuit to block the sale of our HHI business unit.“ said David Maura, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Spectrum Brands.

"While we are disappointed with our top-line performance in the quarter, I am pleased with the fact that our focus on profitability is paying off as we exceeded third quarter EBITDA expectations, excluding investment income. We expect some of these short-term demand headwinds to continue in the fourth quarter and, therefore, expect to be towards the lower end of our earnings framework, excluding the investment income from the HHI proceeds. We also believe there is still excess inventory in the retail channel as well as our balance sheet, particularly in kitchen appliances. Going into fiscal 24, one of our goals is to continue to improve the health of our inventory."

Mr. Maura continued, "with the close of the HHI transaction, we have become a net debt free company. Our balance sheet is stronger than it has ever been and we have taken a major step in the direction of becoming a faster growing, higher margin, pure play Global Pet Care and Home & Garden company. We have also repaid $1.6 billion of our outstanding debt and are returning capital to shareholders through a $500 million accelerated share repurchase program. In addition, our team is now able to refocus all their energy on our core businesses and with the stronger balance sheet, we believe we are very well positioned to drive long-term growth and profitability."

n/m = not meaningful

• Net sales decreased 10.1% with a decrease in organic net sales of 9.7%, excluding the impact of $3.5 million of unfavorable foreign exchange rates. Net sales declined due to retailer inventory management strategies and slower than expected category POS, offset by positive pricing adjustments.
• Gross profit decreased due to reduced volume while gross profit margin increased from the improved pricing, cost improvements, and favorable mix.
• Operating loss increased with the recognition of a goodwill impairment of $111.1 million, intangible asset impairment of $53.7 million and prior year gain from remeasurement of contingent gain liability partially offset by lower distribution costs, fixed cost reduction efforts, and reduced project spend on restructuring, optimization and strategic transaction initiatives.
• Net loss increase and diluted earnings per share decrease from continuing operations were primarily driven by the increase in operating loss and interest costs.
• Adjusted EBITDA increased 23.0% and adjusted EBITDA margin increased 360 basis points attributable to lower distribution costs, fixed cost reduction initiatives and positive pricing impact, partially offset by the reduction in sales volume.
• Adjusted diluted EPS increased to $0.75 per share due to higher Adjusted EBITDA and a reduction in outstanding shares.

Fiscal 2023 Third Quarter Segment Level Data

Global Pet Care (GPC)

		Three Month Periods Ended
(in millions, except %)		July 2, 2023				July 3, 2022				Variance
Net sales		$	272.3			$	290.2			$	(17.9	)		(6.2	)%
Operating income			38.2				19.9				18.3			92.0	%
Operating income margin			14.0	%			6.9	%			710		bps
Adjusted EBITDA		$	53.6			$	40.9			$	12.7			31.1	%
Adjusted EBITDA margin			19.7	%			14.1	%			560		bps

The decrease in net sales was mainly driven by continued softness in the global aquatics category, especially in the subcategory of equipment and environments. Companion Animals category grew in the EMEA and Latin America regions but declined in North America partially due to aggressive portfolio management which resulted in the decision to exit several non-strategic categories. Sales in EMEA increased due to growth in Companion Animal category driven by strong dog and cat food sales. The sales were also helped by prior year price increases and new positive pricing adjustments in EMEA. Organic net sales decreased 6.4%, excluding favorable foreign currency impacts of $0.8 million.

Operating income, Adjusted EBITDA and margins increased due to lower distribution costs compared to prior year disruptions, positive pricing adjustments, savings from prior year cost reduction initiatives, and additional cost reduction actions in the current year. This was partially offset by lower volumes.

Home & Garden (H&G)

		Three Month Periods Ended
(in millions, except %)		July 2, 2023				July 3, 2022				Variance
Net sales		$	186.6			$	198.5			$	(11.9	)		(6.0	)%
Operating income			26.2				36.2				(10.0	)		(27.6	)%
Operating income margin			14.0	%			18.2	%			(420	)	bps
Adjusted EBITDA		$	38.6			$	42.8			$	(4.2	)		(9.8	)%
Adjusted EBITDA margin			20.7	%			21.6	%			(90	)	bps

The net sales decrease was primarily driven by unanticipated adverse weather leading to lower POS and lower than expected replenishment orders for the pest control category. Lower than anticipated POS late in the quarter also drove retailers to continue to be conservative with their inventory planning and to further reduce inventory. Cleaning products sales increased by low single digits, but the category POS remained challenged as consumer demand for cleaning products continues to decline post COVID and the performance in the category remains below expectations.

The lower operating income, Adjusted EBITDA and margins were driven by the impact of the sales decline and continued inflation partially offset by positive pricing, benefits of prior year fixed cost restructuring and operational cost reductions from cost improvement initiatives. Operating income was also impacted by impairment of intangible assets.

Home & Personal Care (HPC)

		Three Month Periods Ended
(in millions, except %)		July 2, 2023				July 3, 2022				Variance
Net sales		$	276.6			$	329.3			$	(52.7	)		(16.0	)%
Operating (loss) income			(156.8	)			14.4				(171.2	)		n/m

Adjusted EBITDA margin			4.1	%			1.1	%			300		bps
n/m = not meaningful

The decrease in net sales is primarily due to category decline from lower consumer demand in kitchen appliances. Sales in International markets grew across Personal Care and Kitchen Appliances categories. However, sales in North America were lower due to lower consumer demand, increased competitive activities and continued retailer inventory management. Organic net sales decreased 14.7%, excluding unfavorable foreign currency impact of $4.3 million.

The operating loss was driven by impairment of goodwill and intangible assets as well as lower volume. The increase in Adjusted EBITDA and margins is driven by cost improvement initiatives, including reduction of operating expenses initiated in the prior year and additional actions undertaken during the second quarter of fiscal 23, positive pricing and favorable cost environment from ocean freight declines. This was partially offset by unfavorable foreign currency in LATAM and lower volume.

Liquidity and Debt

As of the end of the quarter, the Company had a cash balance of $2,930 million and $2,101 million of debt outstanding, consisting of $2,012 million of senior unsecured notes and $89 million of finance leases. Subsequent to the end of the quarter, the Company paid down an additional $450 million of senior unsecured notes, which were callable at par.

The Company ended the quarter in a net positive cash position, compared to a proforma net leverage of 6.3 times at the end of the previous quarter.

Fiscal 2023 Earnings Framework

Spectrum Brands continues to expect reported net sales to decline by mid single-digits in Fiscal 2023, with foreign exchange expected to have a negative impact based upon current rates. Fiscal 2023 Adjusted EBITDA, excluding investment income, is expected to decline by low to mid single-digits.

From a capital structure perspective, while we are currently in a net cash position, the Company is targeting a long-term net leverage ratio of 2.0 - 2.5 times after full deployment of HHI sale proceeds.

Non-GAAP Measurements

Management believes that certain non-GAAP financial measures may be useful in certain instances to provide additional meaningful comparisons between current results and results in prior operating periods. Within this document, including the tables that follow, reference is made to organic net sales, adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA), adjusted EBITDA margin, and adjusted earnings per share (EPS). Management believes that organic net sales provide for a more complete understanding of underlying business trends of regional and segment performance by excluding the impact of foreign currency exchange fluctuations and the impact of acquisitions (when applicable) when there is no comparable sales in the prior period. Organic sales growth is calculated by comparing organic net sales to net sales in the prior comparative period. The effect of changes in foreign currency exchange rates is determined by translating the period’s net sales using the foreign currency exchange rates that were in effect during the prior comparative period. Adjusted EBITDA is a metric used by management to evaluate segment performance and frequently used by the financial community, which provides insight into an organization’s operating trends and facilitates comparisons between peer companies, because interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization can differ greatly between organizations as a result of differing capital structures and tax strategies. Adjusted EBITDA can also be a useful measure for determining the Company's debt covenant compliance. Adjusted EBITDA excludes certain items that are unusual in nature or not comparable from period to period. Adjusted EBITDA margin reflects adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of net sales. Management uses adjusted diluted EPS as a useful measure for providing further insight into our operating performance because it eliminates the effects of certain items that are not comparable from one period to the next. An income tax adjustment is included in adjusted diluted EPS to exclude the impact of the valuation allowance against deferred taxes and other tax-related items in order to reflect a normalized ongoing effective tax rate of 25.0%. The Company provides this information to investors to assist in comparisons of past, present and future operating results and to assist in highlighting the results of on-going operations. While the Company's management believes that non-GAAP measurements are useful supplemental information, such adjusted results are not intended to replace the Company's GAAP financial results and should be read in conjunction with those GAAP results. Supplemental tables have been provided within the Appendix to this document to demonstrate reconciliation of non-GAAP measurements to the most comparable GAAP measure.

We define organic net sales as reported net sales excluding the effect of changes in foreign currency exchange rates and acquisitions. We believe this non-GAAP measure provides useful information to investors because it reflects regional and operating segment performance from our activities without the effect of changes in currency exchange rate and acquisitions. We use organic net sales as one measure to monitor and evaluate our regional and segment performance. Organic growth is calculated by comparing organic net sales to reported net sales in the prior year. The effect of changes in currency exchange rates is determined by translating the current period net sales using the currency exchange rates that were in effect during the prior period. Net sales are attributed to the geographic regions based on the country of destination. We exclude net sales from acquired businesses in the current year for which there are no comparable sales in the prior period. The following is a reconciliation of reported sales to organic sales for the three and nine month period ended July 2, 2023 compared to reported net sales for the three and nine month periods ended July 3, 2022:

ADJUSTED EBITDA AND ADJUSTED EBITDA MARGIN

Adjusted EBITDA (Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation, Amortization) is a non-GAAP metric used by management that we believe provides useful information to investors because it reflects ongoing operating performance and trends of our segments excluding certain non-cash based expenses and non-recurring items during each of the comparable periods and facilitates comparisons between peer companies since interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization can differ greatly between organizations as a result of differing capital structures and tax strategies. Further, adjusted EBITDA is a measure used for determining the Company’s debt covenant. EBITDA is calculated by excluding the Company’s income tax expense, interest expense, depreciation expense and amortization expense from intangible assets from net income. Adjusted EBITDA further excludes the following:

• Share based compensation costs consist of costs associated with long-term incentive compensation arrangements that generally consist of non-cash, stock-based compensation;

• Incremental amounts attributable to strategic transactions and business development initiatives including, but not limited to, the acquisition or divestitures of a business, costs to effect and facilitate a transaction, including such cost to integrate or separate the respective business. These amounts are excluded from our performance metrics as they are reflective of incremental investment by the Company towards business development activities, incremental costs attributable to such transactions and are not considered recurring or reflective of the continuing ongoing operations of the consolidated group or segments;

• Incremental amounts realized towards restructuring and optimization projects including, but not limited to, costs towards the development and implementation of strategies to optimize operations and improve efficiency, reduce costs, increase revenues, increase or maintain our current profit margins, including recognition of one-time exit or disposal costs. These amounts are excluded from our ongoing performance metrics as they are reflective of incremental investment by the Company towards significant initiatives controlled by management, incremental costs directly attributable to such initiatives, indirect impact or disruption to operating performance during implementation, and are not considered recurring or reflective of the continuing ongoing operations of the consolidated group or segments;

• Unallocated shared costs associated with discontinued operations from certain shared and center-led administrative functions the Company's business units excluded from income from discontinued operations as they are not a direct cost of the discontinued business but a result of indirect allocations, including but not limited to, information technology, human resources, finance and accounting, supply chain, and commercial operations. Amounts attributable to unallocated shared costs would be mitigated through subsequent strategic or restructuring initiatives, transition services agreements, elimination of extraneous costs, or re-allocations or absorption of existing continuing operations following the completed sale of the discontinued operations;

• Non-cash purchase accounting adjustments recognized in earnings from continuing operations subsequent to an acquisition, including, but not limited to, the costs attributable to the step-up in inventory value and the incremental value in operating lease assets with below market rent, among others;

• Non-cash gain from the reduction in the contingent consideration liability associated with the Tristar Business acquisition in the prior year;

• Non-cash asset impairments or write-offs realized and recognized in earnings from continuing operations, including impairments from property, plant and equipment, operating and finance lease assets, and goodwill and other intangible assets;

• Impact from the early settlement of foreign currency cash flow hedges in the prior year, resulting in subsequent assumed losses at the original stated maturities of foreign currency cash flow hedges in our EMEA region that were settled early due to changes in the Company's legal entity organization structure and forecasted purchasing strategy of HPC finished goods inventory within the region, resulting in the recognition of excluded gains in the prior year intended to mitigate cost through the year ending September 30, 2023;

• Incremental costs recognized by the HPC segment attributable to the realization of product recalls initiated in the prior year;

• Incremental reserves for non-recurring litigation or environmental remediation activity, including the proposed settlement of outstanding litigation at our H&G and HPC segments attributable to significant and unusual nonrecurring claims with no previous history or precedent, and any subsequent changes in estimate or remeasurement realized upon settlement; and

• Other adjustments primarily attributable to (1) costs associated with Salus as they are not considered a component of the continuing commercial products company; (2) key executive severance related costs; (3) insurable losses associated with hurricane damages at a key supplier of our Glofish business and loss realized from misapplied funds during the three and nine month period ended July 2, 2023.

Adjusted EBITDA margin is calculated as adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of reported net sales for the respective periods.

ADJUSTED DILUTED EPS

We define adjusted diluted earnings per share (EPS) as reported diluted EPS excluding the effect of one-time, non-recurring activity and volatility associated with our income tax expense. The Company believes that adjusted diluted EPS provides further insight and comparability in operating performance as it eliminates the effects of certain items that are not comparable from one period to the next. Adjustments to diluted EPS include the following:

• Incremental amounts attributable to strategic transactions and business development initiatives including, but not limited to, the acquisition or divestitures of a business, costs to effect and facilitate a transaction, including such cost to integrate or separate the respective business. These amounts are excluded from our performance metrics as they are reflective of incremental investment by the Company towards business development activities, incremental costs attributable to such transactions and are not considered recurring or reflective of the continuing ongoing operations of the consolidated group or segments;

• Incremental amounts realized towards restructuring and optimization projects including, but not limited to, costs towards the development and implementation of strategies to optimize operations and improve efficiency, reduce costs, increase revenues, increase or maintain our current profit margins, including recognition of one-time exit or disposal costs. These amounts are excluded from our ongoing performance metrics as they are reflective of incremental investment by the Company towards significant initiatives controlled by management, incremental costs directly attributable to such initiatives, indirect impact or disruption to operating performance during implementation, and are not considered recurring or reflective of the continuing ongoing operations of the consolidated group or segments;

• Unallocated shared costs associated with discontinued operations from certain shared and center-led administrative functions the Company's business units excluded from income from discontinued operations as they are not a direct cost of the discontinued business but a result of indirect allocations, including but not limited to, information technology, human resources, finance and accounting, supply chain, and commercial operations. Amounts attributable to unallocated shared costs would be mitigated through subsequent strategic or restructuring initiatives, transition services agreements, elimination of extraneous costs, or re-allocations or absorption of existing continuing operations following the completed sale of the discontinued operations;

• Non-cash purchase accounting adjustments recognized in earnings from continuing operations subsequent to an acquisition, including, but not limited to, the costs attributable to the step-up in inventory value and the incremental value in operating lease assets with below market rent, among others;

• Non-cash gain from the reduction in the contingent consideration liability associated with the Tristar Business acquisition in the prior year;

• Non-cash asset impairments or write-offs realized and recognized in earnings from continuing operations, including impairments from property, plant and equipment, operating and finance lease assets, and goodwill and other intangible assets;

• Impact from the early settlement of foreign currency cash flow hedges in the prior year, resulting in subsequent assumed losses at the original stated maturities of foreign currency cash flow hedges in our EMEA region that were settled due to changes in the Company's legal entity organization structure and forecasted purchasing strategy of HPC finished goods inventory within the region, resulting in the recognition of excluded gains in the prior year intended to mitigate costs through the year ending September 30, 2023;

• Incremental costs recognized by the HPC segment attributable to the realization of product recalls initiated in the prior year;

• Incremental reserves for non-recurring litigation or environmental remediation activity, including the proposed settlement of outstanding litigation at our H&G and HPC segments attributable to significant and unusual nonrecurring claims with no previous history or precedent, and any subsequent change in estimate or remeasurement realized upon settlement;

• Incremental interest costs realized during the three and nine month periods ended July 2, 2023 for fees paid towards the amendment to the credit agreement to temporarily increase the maximum consolidated leverage ratio and incremental cost from the write off of debt issuance costs for the early extinguishment of debt and termination of the incremental revolver after the closing of the HHI divestiture;

• Other adjustments primarily attributable to (1) costs associated with Salus as they are not considered a component of the continuing commercial products company; (2) key executive severance related costs; (3) insurable losses and cost recovery associated with hurricane damages at a key supplier of our Glofish business and loss realized from misapplied funds during the three and nine month period ended July 2, 2023; and

• Income tax adjustment to diluted EPS is to exclude the impact of adjusting the valuation allowance against deferred taxes and other tax related items in order to reflect a normalized ongoing effective tax rate of 25.0% for the three and nine month periods ended July 2, 2023 and July 3, 2022 based upon enacted corporate tax rate in the United States.
