CPG International Inc. Posts Second Quarter Results

Friday, August 6, 2010

CPG International Inc. (CPG) a leading manufacturer of premium, low maintenance building products for residential, commercial, and industrial markets today announced second quarter 2010 financial results.  CPG’s products include AZEK Trim, AZEK Deck, AZEK Porch, AZEK Moulding, and AZEK Rail for residential housing markets; bathroom and locker systems sold under the brand names Comtec Industries, Hiny Hider and TuffTec, used in commercial building markets; and Vycom which extrudes plastic sheet products under the names of Celtec, Seaboard® and Flametec® and other non-fabricated products for special applications in industrial markets.

Second Quarter Highlights

 
·
Second quarter sales were $85.7 million, up 37.5% from the second quarter 2009.  64.3% revenue growth at AZEK Deck, Rail and Trim and 74.3% volume growth at Vycom offset softness in the commercial market.

 
·
Gross margin decreased to 30.9% from 35.6% in the second quarter of 2009 driven primarily by higher material costs.

 
·
Net income was $2.8 million for the second quarter of 2010, compared to $0.1 million in the second quarter of 2009.

 
·
EBITDA increased to $16.6 million in the second quarter of 2010.  Adjusted EBITDA was $17.3 million in the second quarter of 2010, up from $14.5 million in the second quarter of 2009.

Year-to-Date Highlights

 
·
Sales for the first six months of 2010 were $180.4 million, up 25.5% from 2009.  Revenue growth at AZEK Deck, driven by new product offerings and a stabilizing residential repair and remodel market, and volume growth at Vycom offset softness in the commercial market.

 
·
Gross margin decreased to 31.1% in the first six months of 2010 from 34.9% driven primarily by higher material costs.

 
·
Net income was $6.0 million for 2010, compared to a net loss of $(7.0) million in 2009.

 
·
EBITDA increased to $36.7 million year-to-date in 2010.  Adjusted EBITDA was $38.5 million in the first six months of 2010, up from $35.5 million in the first six months of 2009.

“We are very excited about our second quarter results,” commented Eric Jungbluth, CPG’s President and Chief Executive Officer.  “Our new product initiatives and marketing efforts continue to differentiate us in the market place and are accelerating the conversion to our lower maintenance product offering.”

EBITDA Guidance

(See the accompanying financial schedules for full financial details and a reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures to their GAAP equivalents.)

CPG raised earnings guidance for 2010 with Adjusted EBITDA guidance of $57 million to $67 million.  Scott Harrison, Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, said “Based on our second quarter results, we are slightly increasing our Adjusted EBITDA guidance for the year.  We continue to expect revenue growth driven by new products and marketing initiatives, being partially offset by higher material costs and a challenging commercial market.  To help meet the demand for growth with AZEK Deck, we are increasing the expected range for capital expenditures in 2010 to $15 million to $20 million.”
