Interface Reports Third Quarter 2023 Results

Rhea-AI Summary

Interface, Inc. (Nasdaq: TILE) reported its third-quarter results, with net sales totaling $311.0 million, down 5.1% YoY. Gross profit margin increased to 35.5%, up 226 basis points YoY. GAAP earnings per share were $0.17, while adjusted earnings per share were $0.28. The company generated $66.3 million of cash from operations and repaid $30.6 million of debt in the quarter.

ATLANTA--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Interface, Inc. (Nasdaq: TILE), a worldwide commercial flooring company and global leader in sustainability, today announced results for the third quarter ended October 1, 2023.

Third quarter highlights:

• Net sales totaled $311.0 million, down 5.1% year-over-year.
• Gross profit margin increased to 35.5%, up 226 basis points year-over-year.
• GAAP earnings per share of $0.17; Adjusted earnings per share of $0.28.
• Generated $66.3 million of cash from operations, repaid $30.6 million of debt in the quarter.

“Our third quarter results reflect the resiliency of our global diversification strategy and effective execution in a relatively sluggish market. Net sales declined in the quarter primarily driven by an outsized impact from retail sector softness and broader macroeconomic uncertainty. This was partially offset by strength in healthcare, up 13% year-over-year, and performance in other key segments. Despite lower volumes in the quarter, we increased gross profit margin by 226 basis points and our strong cash flow generation enabled us to pay down debt, driving accelerated improvements in our balance sheet,” commented Laurel Hurd, CEO of Interface.

“We hit an important milestone in our One Interface journey with the global product launch of our Past Forward carpet tile collection, which was the first time we launched a global collection at the same time around the world. As we close out 2023, we remain focused on leveraging the power of our entire organization to drive profitable growth and value for our shareholders,” concluded Hurd.

“With strong cash flow from operations, debt repayment remains our top capital allocation priority. During the quarter we repaid $30.6 million of debt, reducing our debt balances by $75.7 million year-over-year, ahead of expectations. Moving into the last quarter of the year, we are revising our full year guidance to reflect ongoing retail sector softness and sluggish global demand. We are focused on winning business, taking share, paying down debt, and disciplined cost management to further strengthen our financial position,” added Bruce Hausmann, CFO of Interface.

Gross profit margin was 35.5% in the third quarter, an increase of 226 basis points from the prior year period.

The impacts of changes in foreign currency presented in the tables are calculated based on applying the prior year period's average foreign currency exchange rates to the current year period.

The Company believes that the above non-GAAP performance measures, which management uses in managing and evaluating the Company’s business, may provide users of the Company’s financial information with additional meaningful basis for comparing the Company’s current results and results in a prior period, as these measures reflect factors that are unique to one period relative to the comparable period. However, these non‑GAAP performance measures should be viewed in addition to, and not as an alternative for, the Company’s reported results under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. Tax effects identified above (when applicable) are calculated using the statutory tax rate for the jurisdictions in which the charge or income occurred.
