Fortune Brands Reports Strong Second Quarter Sales and EPS Growth; Raises 2016 Annual EPS Outlook

Highlights from continuing operations demonstrating continued strong momentum:

DEERFIELD, Ill.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--July 27, 2016--Fortune Brands Home & Security, Inc. (NYSE: FBHS), an industry-leading home and security products company, today announced second quarter 2016 results from continuing operations and increased its 2016 annual outlook for earnings per share.

“We drove strong sales and profit gains across all segments in the second quarter as the home products market continued to grow at the pace that we had planned,” said Chris Klein, chief executive officer, Fortune Brands. “Based on continuing our strong performance, we are increasing our full year EPS outlook.”

Second Quarter 2016

For the second quarter of 2016, sales were $1.3 billion, an increase of 11 percent over the second quarter of 2015. Earnings per share were $0.80, compared to $0.48 in the prior-year quarter. EPS before charges/gains were $0.82, compared to $0.59 the same quarter last year. EPS before charges/ gains increased $0.23, with $0.18 from stronger operating performance and $0.05 from a lower tax rate. Operating income was $187.7 million, compared to $128.2 million in the prior-year quarter. Operating income before charges/gains was $191.7 million, compared to $150.5 million the same quarter last year, up 27 percent.

“In the second quarter, sales increased 12 percent for our U.S. home products businesses. Operating margin before charges/gains for the total company grew significantly by 190 basis points to 14.8 percent, with solid performance across all operating segments,” Klein said.

For each segment in the second quarter of 2016, compared to the prior-year quarter:


The Company also amended its credit agreement during the quarter. The duration of the credit facility has been extended to 2021, the revolver has been expanded to $1.25 billion and the term loan has been eliminated. “With the flexibility of this new credit facility, we are now better positioned to drive incremental growth with our balance sheet and cash flow,” said Lee Wyatt, chief financial officer.

Annual Outlook for 2016

The Company’s 2016 annual outlook continues to be based on a U.S. home products market growth assumption of 6 to 7 percent and an assumption of 5 to 6 percent growth for our total global market. Based on the Company’s expectation to continue outperforming the market and incremental sales from the Norcraft acquisition in the first half of the year, the Company continues to expect full-year 2016 sales growth in the range of 10 to 12 percent.

The Company increased its expectations for EPS before charges/gains to be in the range of $2.70 to $2.78, which compares to 2015 EPS before charges/gains of $2.07. The midpoint of the Company’s increased EPS outlook represents a $0.19 increase from the previous outlook, with $0.13 from a lower tax rate and $0.06 driven by stronger operating performance.

“Demand for our home products remains strong, our teams continue to outperform the market for our products and we have again increased our EPS outlook,” said Klein. “Included in our outlook, we also plan to increase our brand spending starting in the second half of 2016 to drive additional growth.”

The Company expects to generate free cash flow of approximately $400 million for the full year 2016.

Statements preceded by, followed by or that otherwise include the words “believes,” “expects,” “estimates,” “plans,” “outlook,” and similar expressions or future or conditional verbs such as “will,” “should,” “would,” “may” and “could” are generally forward-looking in nature and not historical facts. Where, in any forward-looking statement, we express an expectation or belief as to future results or events, such expectation or belief is based on the current plans and expectations of our management. Although we believe that these statements are based on reasonable assumptions, they are subject to numerous factors, risks and uncertainties that could cause actual outcomes and results to be materially different from those indicated in such statements. Our actual results could differ materially from the results contemplated by these forward-looking statements due to a number of factors, including the factors discussed in Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The forward-looking statements included in this release are made as of the date hereof, and except as required by law, we undertake no obligation to update, amend or clarify any forward-looking statements to reflect events, new information or circumstances occurring after the date of this release.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information

This press release includes measures not derived in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), such as diluted earnings per share before charges/gains, cabinet sales excluding the impact of the Norcraft acquisition, operating income before charges/gains, operating margin before charge/gains and free cash flow. These measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for any measure derived in accordance with GAAP and may also be inconsistent with similar measures presented by other companies.

* 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 sale of assets including property, plant and equipment) plus proceeds from the exercise of stock options. It additionally excludes payments of transaction costs related to the Norcraft acquisition. 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.

DILUTED EPS BEFORE CHARGES/GAINS RECONCILIATION

 
For the second quarter of 2016, diluted EPS before charges/gains is income from continuing operations, net of tax and including the impact from noncontrolling interests calculated on a diluted per-share basis excluding $4.0 million ($2.8 million after tax or $0.02 per diluted share) of net restructuring and other charges, the impact of the write off of prepaid debt issuance costs of $1.3 million ($0.8 million after tax) and a tax item of $0.8 million.
 
 

For the six months ended June 30, 2016, diluted EPS before charges/gains is income from continuing operations, net of tax and including the impact from noncontrolling interests calculated on a diluted per-share basis excluding $12.2 million ($8.4 million after tax or $0.06 per diluted share) of restructuring and other charges, the impact of the write off of prepaid debt issuance cost of $1.3 million ($0.8 million after tax), tax items of $1.1 million, and actuarial losses of $0.9 million ($0.6 million after tax).

 
 
For the second quarter of 2015, diluted EPS before charges/gains is income from continuing operations, net of tax and including the impact from noncontrolling interests calculated on a diluted per-share basis excluding $6.5 million ($5.5 million after tax or $0.03 per diluted share) of net restructuring and other charges, transaction costs related to the acquisition of Norcraft of $15.8 million ($12.6 million after tax or $0.08 per diluted share) and a tax item of $0.3 million.
 
 
For the six months ended June 30, 2015, diluted EPS before charges/gains is income from continuing operations, net of tax and including the impact from noncontrolling interests calculated on a diluted per-share basis excluding $11.3 million ($8.7 million after tax or $0.05 per diluted share) of restructuring and other charges, transaction costs related to the acquisition of Norcraft of $16.9 million ($13.3 million after tax or $0.09 per diluted share), and a tax item of $1.6 million ($0.01 per diluted share).

RECONCILIATION OF FULL YEAR 2016 EARNINGS GUIDANCE TO GAAP

 
For the full year, on a GAAP basis, the Company is targeting diluted EPS from continuing operations to be in the range of $2.60 to $2.68 per share. The Company is targeting diluted EPS before charges/gains from continuing operations to be in the range of $2.70 to $2.78 per share. The Company's GAAP basis EPS range assumes the Company incurs no actuarial gains or losses associated with its defined benefit plans for the remainder of the year. Reconciliation of non-GAAP diluted EPS guidance to GAAP diluted EPS guidance cannot be provided without unreasonable efforts on a forward-looking basis due to the high variability and low visibility with respect to gains and losses associated with our defined benefit plans and restructuring and other charges, which are excluded from the diluted EPS before charges/gains.

(1) Corporate expenses as derived in accordance with GAAP include the components of defined benefit plan expense other than service cost including actuarial gains and losses.
 
(2) Restructuring charges are costs incurred to implement significant cost reduction initiatives and include workforce reduction costs.
 
(3) "Other charges" represent charges or gains 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.
 
(4) Represents actuarial gains or losses associated with our defined benefit plans. Actuarial gains or losses in a period represent the difference between actual and actuarially assumed experience, principally related to liability discount rates and plan asset returns, as well as other actuarial assumptions including compensation rates, turnover rates, and health care cost trend rates. The Company recognizes actuarial gains or losses immediately in operating income to the extent they cumulatively exceed a “corridor.” The corridor is equal to the greater of 10% of the fair value of plan assets or 10% of a plan’s projected benefit obligation. Actuarial gains or losses are determined at required remeasurement dates which occur at least annually in the fourth quarter. Remeasurements due to plan amendments and settlements may also occur in interim periods during the year. Our operating income before charges/gains reflects our expected rate of return on pension plan assets which in a given period may materially differ from our actual return on plan assets. Our liability discount rates and plan asset returns are based upon difficult to predict fluctuations in global bond and equity markets that are not directly related to the Company’s business. We believe that the exclusion of actuarial gains or losses from operating income before charges/gains provides investors with useful supplemental information regarding the underlying performance of the business from period to period that may be considered in conjunction with our operating income as measured on a GAAP basis. We present this supplemental information because such actuarial gains or losses may create volatility in our operating income that does not necessarily have an immediate corresponding impact on operating cash flow or the actual compensation and benefits provided to our employees. The table below sets forth additional supplemental information on the Company’s historical actual and expected rate of return on plan assets, as well as discount rates used to value its defined benefit obligations:

(1) Restructuring charges are costs incurred to implement significant cost reduction initiatives and include workforce reduction costs.

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.
