  • 2Q 2022 earnings per share (EPS) of $1.46, a decrease of 6 percent versus a year ago; EPS before charges / gains of $1.67, an increase of 7 percent versus a year ago

DEERFIELD, Ill.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Jul. 27, 2022-- Fortune Brands Home & Security, Inc. (NYSE: FBHS, the “Company”, or “Fortune Brands”), an industry-leading home and security products company, today announced second quarter 2022 results.

“Our teams once again delivered strong results while also advancing key strategic priorities,” said Nicholas Fink, chief executive officer, Fortune Brands. “Consumer demand for our products remained resilient as net sales grew solidly, especially considering the stimulus-driven growth during this quarter last year. Additionally, each segment improved its margins sequentially and versus the prior year. The long-term fundamentals driving the housing market remain intact, and we are committed to thoughtfully taking the actions necessary to deliver margin progression and effectively manage our cash through any short-term softness in demand. Just as in previous cycles, we will be proactive and agile in our response to dynamic conditions, enabling us to continue achieving our long-term objectives. Finally, the separation of our two companies is moving forward ahead of schedule. Our teams are executing with excellence, and we are excited for the future of both New Fortune Brands and Cabinets.”

Second Quarter 2022

For the second quarter of 2022, sales were $2.1 billion, an increase of 9 percent over the second quarter of 2021. Earnings per share were $1.46, compared to $1.55 in the prior-year quarter, a decrease of 6 percent. EPS before charges / gains were $1.67, compared to $1.56 the same quarter last year, an increase of 7 percent. Operating income was $284.1 million, compared to $294.9 million in the prior-year quarter, a decrease of 4 percent. Operating income before charges / gains was $319.8 million, compared to $297.5 million the same quarter last year, up 7 percent. Operating margin was 13.5 percent, compared to 15.2 percent in the second quarter of 2021. Operating margin before charges / gains was 15.1 percent, compared to 15.4 percent in the second quarter of 2021.

 

For each segment in the second quarter of 2022, compared to the prior-year quarter:

  • Water Innovations sales decreased 6 percent, or 5 percent adjusting for FX. Results were impacted by coronavirus-related shutdowns in China; excluding China, sales increased 4 percent. Operating margin before charges / gains was 24.9 percent.
  • Outdoors & Security sales increased 13 percent driven by price across all product categories. Organically, sales increased 12 percent. Operating margin before charges / gains was 15.4 percent, up 70 basis points in the period over last year
  • Cabinet sales increased 21 percent, driven by price and volume growth. Operating margin before charges / gains was 11.5 percent, up 60 basis points in the period over last year.

Balance Sheet and Liquidity

At the end of the quarter, net debt was $3.0 billion and net debt to EBITDA was 2.3x. The Company had $361 million in cash and $564 million of availability under its revolving credit facility.

During the second quarter, the Company repurchased approximately $125 million in common stock and year-to-date has repurchased approximately $505 million in common stock.

Annual Outlook Update

The Company now anticipates delivering an increased full-year sales growth in the range of 6.5 percent to 7.5 percent relative to a global home products market growing at 3 percent to 5 percent and a U.S. home products market growing at 4 percent to 6 percent.

The Company now expects EPS before charges / gains for the full year to be in the range of $6.36 to $6.50 to account for incremental costs related to the separation.

The Company now expects to generate free cash flow of approximately $590 million to $630 million.

“We remain well positioned to achieve our long-term objectives,” said Patrick Hallinan, chief financial officer, Fortune Brands. “We are proactively managing expenses and cash in response to a dynamic housing products market and will continue to drive value-creation opportunities. Our balance sheet remains strong, and we will appropriately manage our liquidity and cash flow to pursue the best returns for our stakeholders.”

  ** Free cash flow is cash flow from operations calculated in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") less net capital expenditures (capital expenditures less proceeds from the disposition of assets including property, plant and equipment, and proceeds from the exercise of stock options). Free cash flow does not include adjustments for certain non-discretionary cash flows such as mandatory debt repayments. Free cash flow is a measure not derived in accordance with GAAP. Management believes that free cash flow provides investors with helpful supplemental information about the Company's ability to fund internal growth, make acquisitions, repay debt and related interest, pay dividends and repurchase common stock. This measure may be inconsistent with similar measures presented by other companies.

  (1) Restructuring charges are costs incurred to implement significant cost reduction initiatives and include workforce reduction costs.  
                       
  (2) "Other charges/gains" represent pre-tax charges directly related to restructuring initiatives that cannot be reported as restructuring under GAAP. Such costs may include losses on disposal of inventories, trade receivables allowances from exiting product lines, accelerated depreciation resulting from the closure of facilities and gains or losses on the sale of previously closed facilities. In total, we recognized other net charges/(gains) of $2.4 million and ($3.0) million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively, and other charges of $2.3 million and $4.2 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively.

In our Outdoors & Security segment, other charges also include an acquisition-related inventory step-up expense (Solar Innovations, "Solar") of $0.7 million classified in cost of products sold for the six months ended June 30, 2022, and $0.6 million and $0.9 million classified in selling, general and administrative for a compensation arrangement with the former owner of Solar for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively. Other charges also includes an acquisition-related inventory step-up expense (Larson) of $3.4 million classified in cost of products sold for the six months ended June 30, 2021.

At Corporate, other charges also include pre-tax expenditures of $4.4 million directly related to the separation of FBHS and its Cabinets business for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022. Also, at Corporate other charges include pre-tax expenditures of $0.3 million for banking, legal, accounting and other similar services directly related to the acquisition of Larson classified in selling, general and administrative expenses and a pre-tax charge of $0.2 million for a loss on sale of a Corporate asset during the six months ended June 30, 2021.

For the twelve months ended December 31, 2021, diluted EPS before charges/gains is net income calculated on a diluted per-share basis excluding $28.1 million ($22.9 million after tax or $0.17 per diluted share) of restructuring and other charges/gains, including costs for banking, legal, accounting and other similar services directly related to the separation of FBHS and its Cabinets business and $2.2 million of mark-to-market expense classified in the other expense, net associated with the acquisition of the remaining outstanding shares of Flo, which occurred in January 2022, loss on equity investments of $4.5 million ($3.4 million net of tax or $0.02 per diluted share), the impact from actuarial losses associated with our defined benefit plans of $1.0 million ($0.7 million net of tax) and a net tax expense of $0.2 million. In addition, we have excluded from this reconciliation the one-time external costs that are contingent on the separation between FBHS and its Cabinets business occurring, for which the timing is unknown. We estimate that these expenses will be in the range of $0.28 to $0.32 per diluted share and will be excluded from our diluted EPS before charges and gains.

Definitions of Terms: GAAP Measures          
                 
In the first quarter of 2022, our Plumbing segment was renamed “Water Innovations” in order to better align with our key brands and organizational purpose. The Plumbing segment name change is to the name only and had no impact on the Company’s historical financial position, results of operations, cash flow or segment level results previously reported.  
 
 
 
                 
In 2018, our Water Innovations segment entered into a strategic partnership with, and acquired non-controlling equity interests in, Flo Technologies, Inc. ("Flo"), a U.S. manufacturer of comprehensive water monitoring and shut-off systems with leak detection technologies. In January 2020, we entered into an agreement to acquire the remaining outstanding shares of Flo in a multi-phase transaction. As part of this agreement, we acquired a majority of Flo’s outstanding shares during 2020 and entered into a forward contract to purchase all remaining shares of Flo during the first quarter of 2022 for a price based on a multiple of Flo’s 2021 sales and adjusted earnings before interest and taxes. During the six months ended June 30, 2022, we made a final cash payment of $16.5 million to the legacy minority shareholders and it is classified in the Other financing, net line of the cash flow statement.  
 
 
 
 
 
 
                 
In January 2022, we acquired 100% of the outstanding equity of Solar Innovations LLC and an affiliated entity (together, "Solar"), a leading producer of wide-opening exterior door systems and outdoor enclosures, for a total gross purchase price of approximately $63 million ($61.6 million, net of cash acquired). The acquisition cost is subject to a final post-closing working capital adjustment. We financed the transaction using cash on hand and borrowings under our existing revolving credit facilities. Solar is part of the Outdoors & Security segment. Its complementary product offerings will support the segment’s outdoor living strategy.
