BlueLinx Announces Second Quarter 2023 Results

MARIETTA, Ga., Aug. 01, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- BlueLinx Holdings Inc. (NYSE: BXC), a leading U.S. wholesale distributor of building products, today reported financial results for the three months ended July 1, 2023.

SECOND QUARTER 2023 HIGHLIGHTS
(all comparisons are versus the prior year period unless otherwise noted)

  • Net sales of $816 million, a decrease of $423 million
  • Gross profit of $136 million, gross margin of 16.6% and specialty product gross margin of 19.1%
  • Net income of $24 million, or $2.70 diluted earnings per share
  • Adjusted net income of $26 million, or $2.91 adjusted diluted earnings per share
  • Adjusted EBITDA of $49 million, 6.0% of net sales
  • Operating cash generated of $64 million and free cash flow of $59 million
  • Available liquidity increased to $765 million, including $418 million cash on hand
  • Net debt of $153 million and net leverage ratio of 0.6x
  • Completed $12 million of share repurchases

“During the second quarter, we maintained both our price and cost discipline to deliver solid results in a market that continues to be soft when compared to last year,” stated Shyam Reddy, President, and CEO of BlueLinx. “Our specialty product gross margins improved to just over 19%, and we generated operating cash of $64 million during the period, further strengthening our overall financial condition. I am very pleased with the team’s focus on our strategic initiatives and the quality of their execution,” continued Reddy. 

“The building products market is improving, and two step distribution will continue to play a meaningful role given our product mix and value proposition,” continued Reddy. “We remain focused on the execution of our growth strategy and consistent in our approach to capital allocation to drive long-term value creation. During the second quarter, we invested $5 million in capital expenditures and returned $12 million to shareholders through repurchases of the company’s common stock under our existing $100 million share repurchase program. Our liquidity is exceptional and at the end of the period, net leverage was 0.6x.”

SECOND QUARTER 2023 FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE 
In the second quarter of 2023, net sales were $816 million, a decrease of $423 million, or 34% when compared to the second quarter of 2022. Gross profit was $136 million, a decrease of $66 million, or 33%, year-over-year, and gross margin was 16.6%, up 30 basis points from the same period last year.

Net sales of specialty products, which includes products such as engineered wood, siding, millwork, outdoor living, specialty lumber and panels and industrial products were $571 million, a decrease of $217 million, or 28% when compared to the second quarter of 2022. This decline was due to a combination of deflation and lower volume, primarily related to engineered wood products.   Gross profit from specialty product sales was $109 million, a decrease of $71 million, or 40% when compared to the second quarter of last year. Gross margin was 19.1% compared to 22.9% in the prior year period.

Net sales of structural products, which includes products such as lumber, plywood, oriented strand board, rebar, and remesh, decreased $207 million, or 46%, to $245 million in the second quarter. The decrease in structural sales was due primarily to the year-over-year declines in the average composite price of framing lumber and structural panels, which were 49% and 39% respectively. Gross profit from sales of structural products was $27 million, an increase of $6 million from the prior year period, and gross margin was 11.0%, up from 4.7% in the prior year period which was impacted by wood-based commodity price deflation and a lower of cost or market adjustment recorded that was not repeated during the current period.

Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses were $88.8 million in the second quarter, $2.6 million lower than the prior year period. The year-over-year decrease in SG&A was due primarily to lower delivery costs and variable compensation, partially offset by the inclusion of incremental operating expenses related to our acquisition of Vandermeer Forest Products.

Net income was $24 million, or $2.70 per diluted share, versus $71 million, or $7.48 per diluted share, in the prior year period. Adjusted Net Income was $26 million, or $2.91 per diluted share compared to $73 million, or $7.63 per diluted share in the second quarter of last year.

Adjusted EBITDA was $49 million, or 6.0% of net sales, for the second quarter of 2023, as compared to $112 million, or 9.1% of net sales in the second quarter of 2022.

Net cash generated from operating activities was $64 million in the second quarter of 2023 and free cash flow was $59 million. The cash generated during the second quarter was driven by net income and a net benefit from working capital, primarily related to a reduction of approximately $30 million in inventory.

CAPITAL ALLOCATION AND FINANCIAL POSITION
During the second quarter, BlueLinx invested $5 million of cash in capital investments used to improve its distribution facilities and upgrade its fleet. Additionally, the Company purchased approximately $12 million of the company’s common stock through open market transactions under its $100 million dollar share repurchase program, with $22 million remaining under the current authorization as of July 1, 2023. Under BlueLinx’s existing share repurchase authorization, the Company may repurchase its common stock at any time or from time to time, without prior notice, subject to prevailing market conditions and other considerations.

As of July 1, 2023, total debt was $571 million, consisting of $300 million of senior secured notes that mature in 2029 and $271 million of finance leases. Available liquidity was $765 million which included an undrawn revolving credit facility that had $346 million of availability plus cash and cash equivalents of $418 million. Net debt was $153 million, resulting in a net leverage ratio of 0.6x on trailing twelve-month Adjusted EBITDA of $259 million.  

THIRD QUARTER 2023 OUTLOOK
Through the first four weeks of the third quarter of 2023, specialty product gross margin was in the range of 18.5% to 19.5% with average daily volumes consistent with what we experienced during the second quarter of 2023. Structural product gross margin was in the range of 12% to 13% given recent increases in wood-based commodity prices with relatively similar average daily sales volumes compared to the second quarter of 2023.

NON-GAAP MEASURES  
The Company reports its financial results in accordance with GAAP. The Company also believes that presentation of certain non-GAAP measures may be useful to investors and may provide a more complete understanding of the factors and trends affecting the business than using reported GAAP results alone. Any non-GAAP measures used herein are reconciled to their most directly comparable GAAP measures herein or in the financial tables accompanying this news release. The Company cautions that non-GAAP measures are not presentations made in accordance with GAAP and are not intended to present superior measures of our financial condition from those measures determined under GAAP. Non-GAAP measures should be considered in addition to, but not as a substitute for, the Company’s reported GAAP results. The Company further cautions that its non-GAAP measures, as used herein, are not necessarily comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies due to differences in methods of calculation.

Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin. BlueLinx defines Adjusted EBITDA as an amount equal to net income (loss) plus interest expense and all interest expense related items, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, and further adjusted for certain non-cash items and other special items, including compensation expense from share based compensation, one-time charges associated with the legal, consulting, and professional fees related to our merger and acquisition activities, gains or losses on sales of properties, amortization of deferred gains on real estate, and expense associated with our restructuring activities, such as severance, in addition to other significant and/or one-time, nonrecurring, non-operating items.

The Company presents Adjusted EBITDA because it is a primary measure used by management to evaluate operating performance.  Management believes this metric helps to enhance investors’ overall understanding of the financial performance and cash flows of the business. Management also believes Adjusted EBITDA is helpful in highlighting operating trends. Adjusted EBITDA is frequently used by securities analysts, investors, and other interested parties in their evaluation of companies, many of which present an Adjusted EBITDA measure when reporting their results. 

We determine our Adjusted EBITDA Margin, which we sometimes refer to as our Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of net sales, by dividing our Adjusted EBITDA for the applicable period by our net sales for the applicable period. We believe that this ratio is useful to investors because it more clearly defines the quality of earnings and operational efficiency of translating sales to profitability. 

Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Earnings Per Share (basic and/or diluted).   BlueLinx defines Adjusted Net Income as net income adjusted for certain non-cash items and other special items, including compensation expense from share based compensation, one-time charges associated with the legal, consulting, and professional fees related to our merger and acquisition activities, gains or losses on sales of properties, amortization of deferred gains on real estate, and expense associated with our restructuring activities, such as severance, in addition to other significant and/or one-time, nonrecurring, non-operating items, further adjusted for the tax impacts of such reconciling items. BlueLinx defines Adjusted Earnings Per Share (basic and/or diluted) as the Adjusted Net Income for the period divided by the weighted average outstanding shares (basic and/or diluted) for the periods presented.

We believe that Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Earnings Per Share (basic and/or diluted) are useful to investors to enhance investors’ overall understanding of the financial performance of the business. Management also believes Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Earnings Per Share (basic and/or diluted) are helpful in highlighting operating trends.

Free Cash Flow. BlueLinx defines free cash flow as net cash provided by operating activities less total capital expenditures. Free cash flow is a measure used by management to assess our financial performance, and we believe it is useful for investors because it relates the operating cash flow of the Company to the capital that is spent to continue and improve business operations. In particular, free cash flow indicates the amount of cash generated after capital expenditures that can be used for, among other things, investment in our business, strengthening our balance sheet, and repayment of our debt obligations. Free cash flow does not represent the residual cash flow available for discretionary expenditures since there may be other nondiscretionary expenditures that are not deducted from the measure.

Net Debt and Net Leverage Ratio. BlueLinx calculates net debt as its total short- and long-term debt, including outstanding balances under our senior secured notes and revolving credit facility and the total amount of its obligations under financing leases, less cash and cash equivalents. We believe that net debt is useful to investors because our management reviews our net debt as part of its management of overall liquidity, financial flexibility, capital structure and leverage, and creditors and credit analysts monitor our net debt as part of their assessments of our business. We determine our overall net leverage ratio by dividing our net debt by trailing twelve-month Adjusted EBITDA. We believe that this ratio is useful to investors because it is an indicator of our ability to meet our future financial obligations. In addition, the ratio is a measure that is frequently used by investors and creditors.

Given these risks and uncertainties, we caution you not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements. We expressly disclaim any obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statement as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law.
