Unifi Announces Fourth Quarter and Year End Results

 

 

GREENSBORO, N.C., July 24, 2013 – Unifi, Inc. (NYSE: UFI) today released preliminary operating results for its fourth quarter and fiscal year ended June 30, 2013. The Company’s reported net sales increased $12.8 million or 6.8% to $200.7 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2013, which consisted of 14 fiscal weeks, compared to net sales of $187.9 million for the quarter ended June 24, 2012, which consisted of 13 fiscal weeks. Net income for the June 2013 quarter was $10.5 million, or $0.54 per share, compared to net income of $11.3 million, or $0.56 per share, for the June 2012 quarter, as a 320 basis point improvement in gross margin was offset by lower earnings of unconsolidated affiliates and higher income tax expense.

Highlights for the June 2013 quarter included:

 

 

Adjusted EBITDA for the June 2013 quarter improved to $18.3 million compared to $14.1 million in the June 2012 quarter;

 

 

Gross margin improved significantly as a result of higher conversion margins and lower manufacturing costs driven by the Company’s mix enrichment and continuous improvement strategies;

 

 

Strong shipping volumes continued, as growth in U.S. retail demand benefitted the Company’s yarn operations in North America and China; and

 

 

The Company amended its $150 million bank credit facility to provide additional liquidity and improve its long-term operating flexibility.


The Company’s reported net sales increased $8.9 million or 1.3% to $714.0 million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2013, compared to net sales of $705.1 million for the fiscal year ended June 24, 2012. For the 2013 fiscal year, net income was $16.6 million, or $0.84 per share, compared to net income of $11.5 million, or $0.57 per share, for the prior fiscal year and adjusted EBITDA was $52.7 million compared to adjusted EBITDA of $39.8 million for the prior fiscal year.

Unifi Announces Fourth Quarter and Year End Results – page 2


Operating margins for the 2013 fiscal year were positively impacted by a 250 basis point improvement in gross margin and an $11.6 million decrease in interest expense related to the Company’s recently completed deleveraging strategy. These improvements were partially offset by an $8.3 million decrease in earnings from the Company’s unconsolidated affiliates and a $15.3 million increase in income taxes.


"Conversion margins for the June 2013 quarter improved, as raw material prices decreased, allowing us to recover margins lost during the run-up of raw material prices in the March 2013 quarter,” said Bill Jasper, Chairman and CEO of Unifi. “We are very pleased with the overall progress of our mix enrichment program and rigorous continuous improvement efforts. While we do not expect to consistently maintain the exceptional margins from the June 2013 quarter, we do expect our future financial performance to benefit from our continued investment in our premier value-added capabilities; continued growth of regional, synthetic apparel production; longer-term moderation of raw materials prices; and the continued recovery of our operations in Brazil and China.”


During the 2013 fiscal year, the Company utilized the $50.5 million of cash generated from operating activities and distributions from equity affiliates to repurchase 1.1 million shares of the Company’s common stock for $19.3 million and repay $23.8 million of outstanding debt. As of June 30, 2013, cash-on-hand was $8.8 million and total debt was $97.8 million.


"Due to our financial strength and positive operating results, we were able to successfully amend our $150 million bank credit facility during the June 2013 quarter," said Ron Smith, Chief Financial Officer of Unifi. “The amendment extends the maturity of the entire facility to May 2018; improves our liquidity by resetting the borrowings under the Term Loan to $50 million and eliminating scheduled quarterly principal payments; reduces the borrowing rate of the Term Loan; and removes share repurchases and certain optional debt prepayments from our fixed charge coverage ratio calculation. Accordingly, we believe the amendment provides additional stability to our long-term capital structure and significantly improves our flexibility and ability to execute on our strategic plans."

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES


Included in this presentation are certain non-GAAP financial measures designed to complement the financial information presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America ("GAAP") because management believes such measures are useful to investors.


EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Including Equity Affiliates and Adjusted EBITDA


EBITDA represents net income or loss attributable to Unifi, Inc. before income tax expense, net interest expense, and depreciation and amortization expense (excluding interest portion of amortization). Adjusted EBITDA Including Equity Affiliates represents EBITDA adjusted to exclude non-cash compensation expense net of distributions, gains or losses on extinguishment of debt, loss on previously held equity interest, operating expenses for Repreve Renewables, restructuring charges and startup costs, and certain other adjustments. Such other adjustments include gains or losses on sales or disposals of property, plant and equipment, currency and derivative gains or losses, certain employee healthcare expenses, and other operating or non-operating income or expense items necessary to understand the underlying results of the Company. Adjusted EBITDA represents Adjusted EBITDA Including Equity Affiliates adjusted to exclude equity in earnings and losses of unconsolidated affiliates. We present Adjusted EBITDA as a supplemental measure of our operating performance. We also present Adjusted EBITDA because we believe such measure is frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of companies in our industry.


EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Including Equity Affiliates and Adjusted EBITDA are alternative views of performance used by management, and we believe that investors' understanding of our performance is enhanced by disclosing these performance measures.  Our management uses Adjusted EBITDA: (i) as a measurement of operating performance because it assists us in comparing our operating performance on a consistent basis as it removes the impact of (a) items directly related to our asset base (primarily depreciation and amortization) and (b) items that we would not expect to occur as a part of our normal operating business; (ii) for planning purposes, including the preparation of our annual operating budget; (iii) as a valuation measure for evaluating our operating performance and our capacity to incur and service debt, fund capital expenditures and expand our business; and (iv) as one measure in determining the value of other acquisitions and dispositions.  Adjusted EBITDA is also a key performance metric utilized in the determination of variable compensation.


We believe that the use of EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Including Equity Affiliates and Adjusted EBITDA as operating performance measures provides investors and analysts with a measure of operating results unaffected by differences in capital structures, capital investment cycles, and ages of related assets, among otherwise comparable companies.  We also believe Adjusted EBITDA is an appropriate supplemental measure of debt service capacity, because cash expenditures on interest are, by definition, available to pay interest, and tax expense is inversely correlated to interest expense because tax expense decreases as deductible interest expense increases; and depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges.  Equity in earnings and losses of unconsolidated affiliates is excluded because such earnings or losses do not reflect our operating performance.  The other items excluded from Adjusted EBITDA are excluded in order to better reflect the performance of our continuing operations.


In evaluating EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Including Equity Affiliates and Adjusted EBITDA, you should be aware that in the future we may incur expenses similar to the adjustments in this presentation. Our presentation of EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Including Equity Affiliates and Adjusted EBITDA should not be construed as an inference that our future results will be unaffected by unusual or non-recurring items.  EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Including Equity Affiliates and Adjusted EBITDA are not measurements of our financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered as alternatives to net income, operating income or any other performance measures derived in accordance with GAAP or as an alternative to cash flow from operating activities as a measure of our liquidity.


-continued-

 

 
 

 

 


 

Unifi Announces Fourth Quarter and Year End Results – page 9


 

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

(continued)


Each of our Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Including Equity Affiliates measures has limitations as an analytical tool, and you should not consider it in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Some of these limitations are:


 

 

it does not reflect our cash expenditures, future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments;


 

 

it does not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs;


 

 

it does not reflect the interest expense or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or to make principal payments on our debt;


 

 

although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized will often have to be replaced in the future, and our Adjusted EBITDA (or our Adjusted EBITDA Including Equity Affiliates) measure does not reflect any cash requirements for such replacements;


 

 

it is not adjusted for all non-cash income or expense items that are reflected in our statements of cash flows;


 

 

it does not reflect the impact of earnings or charges resulting from matters we consider not indicative of our on-going operations;


 

 

it does not reflect limitations on or costs related to transferring earnings from our subsidiaries to us; and


 

 

other companies in our industry may calculate this measure differently than we do, which may limit its usefulness as a comparative measure.


Because of these limitations, neither Adjusted EBITDA nor Adjusted EBITDA Including Equity Affiliates should be considered as a measure of discretionary cash available to us to invest in the growth of our business or as a measure of cash that will be available to us to meet our obligations, including those under our outstanding debt obligations. You should compensate for these limitations by relying primarily on our GAAP results and using Adjusted EBITDA only as supplemental information.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
 Unifi, Inc.
Fourth Qtr. Conf. Call
July 25, 2013
(Unaudited)
 Included in this presentation are certain non-GAAP financial measures designed to complement the financial information presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America ("GAAP") because management believes such measures are useful to investors.      EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Including Equity Affiliates and Adjusted EBITDA      EBITDA represents net income or loss attributable to Unifi, Inc. before income tax expense, net interest expense, and depreciation and amortization expense (excluding interest portion of amortization).  Adjusted EBITDA Including Equity Affiliates represents EBITDA adjusted to exclude non-cash compensation expense net of distributions, gains or losses on extinguishment of debt, loss on previously held equity interest, operating expenses for Repreve Renewables, restructuring charges and startup costs, and certain other adjustments.  Such other adjustments include gains or losses on sales or disposals of property, plant and equipment, currency and derivative gains or losses, certain employee healthcare expenses, and other operating or non-operating income or expense items necessary to understand the underlying results of the Company. Adjusted EBITDA represents Adjusted EBITDA Including Equity Affiliates adjusted to exclude equity in earnings and losses of unconsolidated affiliates.  We present Adjusted EBITDA as a supplemental measure of our operating performance. We also present Adjusted EBITDA because we believe such measure is frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of companies in our industry.      EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Including Equity Affiliates and Adjusted EBITDA are alternative views of performance used by management, and we believe that investors' understanding of our performance is enhanced by disclosing these performance measures.  Our management uses Adjusted EBITDA: (i) as a measurement of operating performance because it assists us in comparing our operating performance on a consistent basis as it removes the impact of (a) items directly related to our asset base (primarily depreciation and amortization) and (b) items that we would not expect to occur as a part of our normal operating business; (ii) for planning purposes, including the preparation of our annual operating budget; (iii) as a valuation measure for evaluating our operating performance and our capacity to incur and service debt, fund capital expenditures and expand our business; and (iv) as one measure in determining the value of other acquisitions and dispositions.  Adjusted EBITDA is also a key performance metric utilized in the determination of variable compensation.      We believe that the use of EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Including Equity Affiliates and Adjusted EBITDA as operating performance measures provides investors and analysts with a measure of operating results unaffected by differences in capital structures, capital investment cycles, and ages of related assets, among otherwise comparable companies.  We also believe Adjusted EBITDA is an appropriate supplemental measure of debt service capacity, because cash expenditures on interest are, by definition, available to pay interest, and tax expense is inversely correlated to interest expense because tax expense decreases as deductible interest expense increases; and depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges.  Equity in earnings and losses of unconsolidated affiliates is excluded because such earnings or losses do not reflect our operating performance.  The other items excluded from Adjusted EBITDA are excluded in order to better reflect the performance of our continuing operations.      In evaluating EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Including Equity Affiliates and Adjusted EBITDA, you should be aware that in the future we may incur expenses similar to the adjustments in this presentation. Our presentation of EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Including Equity Affiliates and Adjusted EBITDA should not be construed as an inference that our future results will be unaffected by unusual or non-recurring items.  EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Including Equity Affiliates and Adjusted EBITDA are not measurements of our financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered as alternatives to net income, operating income or any other performance measures derived in accordance with GAAP or as an alternative to cash flow from operating activities as a measure of our liquidity.

 

 
 

 

 

Non-GAAP Financial Measures - continued
 Unifi, Inc.
Fourth Qtr. Conf. Call
July 25, 2013
(Unaudited)
 

Each of our Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Including Equity Affiliates measures has limitations as an analytical tool, and you should not consider it in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Some of these limitations are:
  
   •  it does not reflect our cash expenditures, future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments;

   •  it does not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs;

   •  it does not reflect the interest expense or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or to make principal payments on our  debt;

   •  although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized will often have to be replaced in the future,
      and our Adjusted EBITDA (or our Adjusted EBITDA Including Equity Affiliates) measure does not reflect any cash requirements for such replacements;

   •  it is not adjusted for all non-cash income or expense items that are reflected in our statements of cash flows;

   •  it does not reflect the impact of earnings or charges resulting from matters we consider not indicative of our on-going operations;

   •  it does not reflect limitations on or costs related to transferring earnings from our subsidiaries to us; and

   •  other companies in our industry may calculate this measure differently than we do, which may limit its usefulness as a comparative measure.


      Because of these limitations, neither Adjusted EBITDA nor Adjusted EBITDA Including Equity Affiliates should be considered as a measure of discretionary cash available to us to invest in the growth of our business or as a measure of cash that will be available to us to meet our obligations, including those under our outstanding debt obligations. You should compensate for these limitations by relying primarily on our GAAP results and using Adjusted EBITDA only as supplemental information.
