ROSWELL, Ga. — (BUSINESS WIRE) — SiteOne Landscape Supply, Inc. (the “Company” or “SiteOne”) (NYSE: SITE) announced earnings for its third quarter ended October 2, 2022 (“Third Quarter 2022”).

 

“Building on our very strong sales and gross margin performance during the third quarter of last year, I am pleased to report continued growth in Net sales, Gross profit and Adjusted EBITDA in the third quarter of 2022, as we remain on pace to deliver another record year for SiteOne,” said Doug Black, SiteOne’s Chairman and CEO. “We generated very healthy Organic Daily Sales growth of 12%, driven by resilient pricing and improving volume trends supported by our commercial and operational initiatives. Acquisition activity during the quarter was robust as we welcomed six new companies to SiteOne, further strengthening our teams, product lines, and market presence. Our acquisitions continued to perform well, contributing strongly to our overall Net Sales and Adjusted EBITDA growth for the quarter. While we face economic headwinds and uncertainties going into next year, we remain very confident in our tremendous team, our balanced business, a strong balance sheet, and our ability to continue building and strengthening SiteOne through our key initiatives and acquisitions. Accordingly, we expect to continue delivering exceptional performance and growth in the years ahead.”

 

Third Quarter 2022 Results

 

Net sales for the Third Quarter 2022 increased to $1.1 billion, or 18%, compared to $936.4 million for the prior-year period. Organic Daily Sales increased 12% compared to the prior-year period primarily driven by ongoing price inflation in response to elevated product costs, partially offset by volume headwinds resulting from higher prices and softening economic conditions. Acquisitions contributed $56.6 million, or 6%, to Net sales growth for the quarter.

 

Gross profit increased 14% to $388.6 million for the Third Quarter 2022 compared to $340.5 million for the prior-year period. Gross margin decreased 120 basis points to 35.2% for the Third Quarter 2022 as the large price realization benefit achieved in the third quarter of 2021 was not repeated.

 

Selling, general and administrative expenses (“SG&A”) for the Third Quarter 2022 increased to $289.2 million from $235.3 million for the prior-year period. SG&A as a percentage of Net sales increased 110 basis points to 26.2% due to increased operating expenses supporting our growth, cost inflation, and the impact of acquisitions.

Net income for the Third Quarter 2022 decreased 8% to $73.3 million compared to $80.0 million for the prior-year period. Net income was driven by higher Net sales but offset by lower gross margin and higher SG&A expense.

 

Adjusted EBITDA increased 6% to $135.6 million for the Third Quarter 2022, compared to $128.2 million for the prior-year period. Adjusted EBITDA margin decreased 140 basis points to 12.3%.

 

Net debt, calculated as long-term debt (net of issuance costs and discounts) plus finance leases, net of cash and cash equivalents on our balance sheet as of October 2, 2022, was $376.6 million compared to $208.4 million as of October 3, 2021. Net debt to Adjusted EBITDA for the last twelve months was 0.8 times compared to 0.5 times at the same time last year.

 

Share Repurchase Authorization Announcement

 

On October 20, 2022, SiteOne’s Board of Directors approved a share repurchase authorization for up to $400 million of the Company’s common stock. This repurchase authorization does not have an expiration date and may be amended, suspended, or terminated by the Board of Directors at any time. Under the repurchase authorization, the Company intends to purchase shares from time to time on the open market, through privately negotiated transactions or otherwise. The number of shares ultimately purchased, and the timing of purchases are at the discretion of management and subject to compliance with applicable laws and regulations.

 

“Given our strong balance sheet, solid cash flow, and our confidence in the long-term value that we can create at SiteOne, we are pleased to announce our first share purchase authorization,” Doug Black continued. “This authorization gives us important flexibility to prudently return excess capital to shareholders while also maintaining a strong balance sheet to strategically build our business both organically and through acquisition during all market conditions.”

 

Outlook

 

“We are currently experiencing low double-digit Organic Daily Sales growth driven by resilient pricing, reasonable market demand, and improving volume trends,” Doug Black continued. “We expect price inflation to moderate in the coming months, while volume will be supported by our balanced business and our strong teams executing our commercial and operational initiatives. Taken all together, we now expect Organic Daily Sales growth to be in the low double digits for 2022. Accordingly, we are once again raising our Adjusted EBITDA guidance for the full year.”

 

For Fiscal 2022, we now expect our Adjusted EBITDA to be in the range of $455 million to $470 million, which represents 10% to 13% growth over our exceptional Fiscal 2021 result. This compares to our prior guidance range of $440 million to $460 million. Our guidance does not include any contributions from unannounced acquisitions.

 

Reconciliation for the forward-looking full-year 2022 Adjusted EBITDA outlook is not being provided, as the Company does not currently have sufficient data to accurately estimate the variables and individual adjustments for such reconciliation.

Forward-looking statements may include, but are not limited to, statements relating to our 2022 Adjusted EBITDA outlook and our share repurchase program. Some of the forward-looking statements can be identified by the use of terms such as “may,” “intend,” “might,” “will,” “should,” “could,” “would,” “expect,” “believe,” “estimate,” “anticipate,” “predict,” “project,” “potential,” or the negative of these terms, and similar expressions. You should be aware that these forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties that are beyond our control. Further, any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date on which it is made, and we undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statement to reflect events or circumstances after the date on which it is made or to reflect the occurrence of anticipated or unanticipated events or circumstances. New factors emerge from time to time that may cause our business not to develop as we expect, and it is not possible for us to predict all of them. Factors that may cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, the following: cyclicality in residential and commercial construction markets; economic downturn or recession; general economic and financial conditions; demand for our products; seasonality of our business; climate change-related events, weather conditions, seasonality, and availability of water to end-users; inflation and increased operating costs; increases in interest rates; the potential negative impact of the COVID-19 pandemic (which, among other things, may exacerbate each of the forward-looking statements discussed here); public perceptions that our products and services are not environmentally friendly or that our practices are not sustainable; competitive industry pressures, including competition for our talent base; supply chain disruptions, product or labor shortages, and the loss of key suppliers; cybersecurity incidents involving our systems or third party systems, including the July 2020 ransomware attack; prices for the products we purchase may fluctuate; ability to pass along product cost increases; inventory management risks; ability to implement our business strategies and achieve our growth objectives; acquisition and integration risks, including increased competition for acquisitions; risks associated with our large labor force and our customers’ labor force (including headwinds due to COVID-19) and ongoing labor market disruptions; retention of key personnel; construction defect and product liability claims; impairment of goodwill; adverse credit and financial markets events and conditions; credit sale risks; performance of individual branches; climate, environmental, health and safety laws and regulations; hazardous materials and related materials; laws and government regulations applicable to our business that could negatively impact demand for our products; failure or malfunctions in our information technology systems; security of personal information about our customers; intellectual property and other proprietary rights; unanticipated changes in our tax provisions; threats from terrorism, public health emergencies, violence, uncertain political conditions and geopolitical conflicts such as the ongoing conflict between Russia and Ukraine; risks related to our current indebtedness and our ability to obtain financing in the future; risks related to our common stock; and other risks, as described in Item 1A, “Risk Factors,” and elsewhere in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 2, 2022, as updated by our subsequent filings under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, including Forms 10-Q and 8-K.

 

Non-GAAP Financial Information

 

This release includes certain financial information, not prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Because not all companies calculate non-GAAP financial information identically (or at all), the presentations herein may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures used by other companies. Further, these measures should not be considered substitutes for the information contained in the historical financial information of the Company prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP that is set forth herein.

We present Adjusted EBITDA in order to evaluate the operating performance and efficiency of our business. Adjusted EBITDA represents EBITDA as further adjusted for items permitted under the covenants of our credit facilities. EBITDA represents our Net income (loss) plus the sum of income tax (benefit) expense, interest expense, net of interest income, and depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA is further adjusted for stock-based compensation expense, (gain) loss on sale of assets, and other non-cash items, financing fees, other fees, and expenses related to acquisitions and other non-recurring (income) loss. Adjusted EBITDA does not include pre-acquisition acquired Adjusted EBITDA. Adjusted EBITDA is not a measure of our liquidity or financial performance under U.S. GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to Net income, operating income or any other performance measures derived in accordance with U.S. GAAP, or as an alternative to cash flow from operating activities as a measure of our liquidity. The use of Adjusted EBITDA instead of Net income has limitations as an analytical tool. Because not all companies use identical calculations, our presentation of Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies, limiting its usefulness as a comparative measure. Net debt is defined as long-term debt (net of issuance costs and discounts) plus finance leases, net of cash and cash-equivalents on our balance sheet. Leverage Ratio is defined as Net debt to trailing twelve months Adjusted EBITDA. Free Cash Flow is defined as Cash Flow from Operating Activities, less capital expenditures. We define Organic Daily Sales as Organic Sales divided by the number of Selling Days in the relevant reporting period. We define Organic Sales as Net sales, including Net sales from newly-opened greenfield branches, but excluding Net sales from acquired branches until they have been under our ownership for at least four full fiscal quarters at the start of the fiscal year. Selling Days are the number of business days, excluding Saturdays, Sundays, and holidays, that SiteOne branches are open during the relevant reporting period.
