Advanced Drainage Systems Announces Third Quarter Fiscal 2023 Results

Advanced Drainage Systems, Inc. (NYSE: WMS) (“ADS” or the “Company”), a leading provider of innovative water management solutions in the stormwater and onsite septic wastewater industries today announced financial results for the fiscal third quarter ended December 31, 2022.

Third Quarter Fiscal 2023 Results

  • Net sales decreased 8.4% to $655.2 million
  • Net income increased 11.7% to $83.2 million
  • Adjusted EBITDA (Non-GAAP) decreased 3.6% to $169.7 million

Year-to-Date Fiscal 2023 Results

  • Net sales increased 17.3% to $2,453.6 million
  • Net income increased 86.5% to $425.0 million
  • Adjusted EBITDA (Non-GAAP) increased 44.2% to $732.0 million
  • Cash provided by operating activities increased 240.7% to $660.4 million
  • Free cash flow (Non-GAAP) increased $440.1 million to $533.6 million

Scott Barbour, President and Chief Executive Officer of ADS commented, "The Company executed well in the fiscal third quarter despite a challenging demand environment. Through October and November, demand was largely in line with expectations, but in December domestic construction market demand slowed significantly. As a result, consolidated net sales declined 8% in the fiscal third quarter. The ADS business was down 3%, primarily due to weakness in the non-residential and retail businesses. The 30% decline in Infiltrator sales was a result of the lower residential market demand and inventory destocking, which completed in the fiscal third quarter as we previously communicated."

Barbour continued, "Importantly, though we are facing a challenging demand environment, our market leading position, value proposition and execution enabled us to manage costs, maintain favorable price/material cost and generate significant cash flow. As a result, the Company’s Adjusted EBITDA margin expanded 130 basis points and free cash flow increased $440 million, or 370% over the prior year. It is also important to point out that Net Income increased 11.7%. As demonstrated with the margin performance in the fiscal third quarter, our business model remains resilient in a lower demand environment. Going forward, we expect annual margin performance to be consistent with what we communicated at Investor Day in March 2022."

"As we look at the significant change in market dynamics that impact construction activity since the beginning of the fiscal year – interest rates nearly doubling and significant inflation – there is no doubt this is creating economic uncertainty. This combination has slowed down demand for the ADS and Infiltrator products. We expect the majority of calendar 2023 to remain a challenging demand environment."

Barbour concluded, "The need for the water management solutions and services we provide is as relevant as ever. The Company’s industry leading water management products have significant competitive advantages that will continue to drive above market results. We will work through this period of lower demand by managing our costs, including reducing headcount and optimizing our network. The long-term fundamentals and position of both ADS and Infiltrator remain intact, and we will manage the business through the external conditions appropriately to continue delivering value to our customers and shareholders."

Third Quarter Fiscal 2023 Results

Net sales decreased $60.2 million, or 8.4%, to $655.2 million, as compared to $715.4 million in the prior year quarter. Domestic pipe sales decreased $24.3 million, or 6.1%, to $375.7 million. Domestic allied products & other sales increased $1.6 million, or 1.1%, to $149.0 million. Infiltrator sales decreased $44.8 million, or 30.1%, to $103.9 million. The decrease in domestic net sales was driven by sales in the U.S. construction end markets. International sales increased $3.1 million, or 5.6%, to $59.0 million, driven by growth in the Canadian and Mexican businesses.

Gross profit increased $14.9 million, or 7.1%, to $223.9 million as compared to $209.0 million in the prior year. The increase in gross profit is primarily due to the favorable pricing on pipe, onsite septic and allied products as well as favorable material cost. This increase was partially offset by a decrease in volume, inflationary cost pressures and higher manufacturing costs.

Adjusted EBITDA (Non-GAAP) decreased $6.4 million, or 3.6%, to $169.7 million, as compared to $176.2 million in the prior year. The decrease is primarily due to the factors mentioned above, as well as an increase in selling, general and administrative expenses. As a percentage of net sales, Adjusted EBITDA was 25.9% as compared to 24.6% in the prior year.

Reconciliations of GAAP to Non-GAAP financial measures for Adjusted EBITDA and Free Cash Flow have been provided in the financial statement tables included in this press release. An explanation of these measures is also included below under the heading “Non-GAAP Financial Measures.”

Domestic pipe sales increased $243.0 million, or 21.0%, to $1,401.6 million. Domestic allied products & other sales increased $129.9 million, or 30.9%, to $550.2 million. Infiltrator sales decreased $0.4 million, or 0.1%, to $420.9 million. The increase in domestic net sales was driven by double-digit sales growth in the U.S. construction end markets. International sales increased $19.2 million, or 10.4%, to $203.9 million, driven by strong sales growth in the Canadian, Mexican and Exports businesses.

Gross profit increased $285.8 million, or 46.8%, to $896.0 million as compared to $610.2 million in the prior year. The increase in gross profit is primarily due to the favorable pricing on pipe, onsite septic and allied products as well as favorable material cost. This increase was partially offset by a decrease in volume, inflationary cost pressures and higher manufacturing costs.

Adjusted EBITDA (Non-GAAP) increased $224.4 million, or 44.2%, to $732.0 million, as compared to $507.5 million in the prior year. The increase is primarily due to the factors mentioned above. As a percentage of net sales, Adjusted EBITDA was 29.8% as compared to 24.3% in the prior year.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This press release contains financial information determined by methods other than in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). ADS management uses non-GAAP measures in its analysis of the Company’s performance. Investors are encouraged to review the reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures to the comparable GAAP results available in the accompanying tables.

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This press release includes references to organic results, Adjusted EBITDA and Free Cash Flow, non-GAAP financial measures. These non-GAAP financial measures are used in addition to and in conjunction with results presented in accordance with GAAP. These measures are not intended to be substitutes for those reported in accordance with GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA and Free Cash Flow may be different from non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies, even when similar terms are used to identify such measures.

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are non-GAAP financial measures that comprise net income before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation, non-cash charges and certain other expenses. The Company’s definition of Adjusted EBITDA may differ from similar measures used by other companies, even when similar terms are used to identify such measures. Adjusted EBITDA is a key metric used by management and the Company’s board of directors to assess financial performance and evaluate the effectiveness of the Company’s business strategies. Accordingly, management believes that Adjusted EBITDA provides useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating our operating results in the same manner as the Company’s management and board of directors. In order to provide investors with a meaningful reconciliation, the Company has provided below reconciliations of Adjusted EBITDA to net income.

Free Cash Flow is a non-GAAP financial measure that comprises cash flow from operating activities less capital expenditures. Free Cash Flow is a measure used by management and the Company’s board of directors to assess the Company’s ability to generate cash. Accordingly, management believes that Free Cash Flow provides useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating our ability to generate cash flow from operations after capital expenditures. In order to provide investors with a meaningful reconciliation, the Company has provided below a reconciliation of cash flow from operating activities to Free Cash Flow.

The following tables present a reconciliation of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA to Net Income and Free Cash Flow to Cash Flow from Operating Activities, the most comparable GAAP measures, for each of the periods indicated.
