Alliance Laundry Holdings LLC Reports 2010 Sales and Earnings

RIPON, Wis.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--March 8, 2010--Alliance Laundry Holdings LLC announced today results for the year ended December 31, 2009.

Net revenues for full year 2009 decreased $67.1 million, or 14.6%, to $393.2 million from $460.3 million for the full year 2008. Our net income for 2009 was $16.6 million as compared to $15.5 million for 2008. Adjusted EBITDA (see “About Non-GAAP Financial Measures” below) for 2009 increased $6.4 million to $78.4 million from $72.0 million for 2008.

Excluding the impact of an unfavorable $13.6 million non-cash mark-to-market adjustment related to the establishment of our new asset backed facility in the second quarter of 2009; net revenues decreased $53.5 million or 11.6% as compared to the full year 2008.

The overall net income increase of $1.1 million was primarily attributable to lower gross profit of $15.8 million, offset by lower interest expense of $8.9 million, lower operating expenses of $6.6 million and a lower provision for income taxes of $1.4 million.

“While the economy in 2009 was the worst our company has experienced in more than two decades, I’m proud to report the Alliance team responded in an extraordinary way,” said CEO Thomas F. L’Esperance. “We delivered record profits, improved our liquidity position and dramatically improved our balance sheet.”

L’Esperance concluded, “Despite a continued challenging environment, we look to build upon our progress in 2010. We will continue to invest in new products and expansion of our customer one programs. As a result, we believe we will be well positioned for continued industry leadership and growth as the global economy recovers.”

About Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In addition to disclosing financial results that are determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), we also disclose EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, which are non-GAAP measures. We have presented EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA because certain covenants in our Senior Credit Facility are tied to ratios based on these measures. “EBITDA” represents net income before interest expense, income tax (provision) benefit and depreciation and amortization (including non-cash interest income), and “Adjusted EBITDA” (as defined under the Senior Credit Facility) is EBITDA as further adjusted to exclude, among other things, certain non-recurring expenses and other non-recurring non-cash charges. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not represent, and should not be considered, an alternative to net income or cash flow from operations, as determined by GAAP, and our calculations thereof may not be comparable to similarly entitled measures reported by other companies. Our Senior Credit Facility requires us to satisfy specified financial ratios and tests, including a maximum of total debt to Adjusted EBITDA and a minimum Adjusted EBITDA to cash interest expense. To the extent that we fail to maintain either of these ratios within the limits set forth in the Senior Credit Facility, our ability to access amounts available under our Revolving Credit Facility would be limited, our liquidity would be adversely affected and our obligations under the Senior Credit Facility could be accelerated. In addition, any such acceleration would constitute an event of default under the indenture governing the Senior Subordinated Notes (the “Notes Indenture”), and such an event of default under the Notes Indenture could lead to an acceleration of our obligations under the Senior Subordinated Notes. A reconciliation of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA with the most directly comparable GAAP measure is included below for the twelve months ended December 31, 2009 along with the components of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA.

Reconciliation of Net income to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, and reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities for the Twelve Months Ended December 31, 2009 and 2008 (Dollars in Thousands):

(a) Depreciation and amortization amounts include amortization of deferred financing costs included in interest expense.
