PGT Reports 2011 Fourth Quarter Results

VENICE, FL, February 23, 2012 - PGT, Inc. (NASDAQ:  PGTI), the leading U.S. manufacturer and supplier of residential impact-resistant windows and doors, announces financial results for the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2011.  In the fourth quarter:

§  
Net sales were $35.7 million, a decrease of $3.3 million, or 8.5%, from prior year fourth quarter;

§  
Gross margin percentage in the fourth quarter of 2011 was 25.1%, compared to 25.7% for the fourth quarter 2010, when adjusted for 2010 consolidation charges;

§  
There was a net loss in the fourth quarter of 2011 of $6.3 million, compared to a net loss of $12.2 million for the fourth quarter of 2010.  Adjusted net loss was $3.6 million in the fourth quarter compared to an adjusted net loss of $4.6 million in the fourth quarter 2010. Adjusted net loss per diluted share was $0.07 compared to an adjusted net loss per diluted share of $0.09 in 2010; and

§  
Non-cash impairment charges totaled $6.0 million, compared to the prior year fourth quarter amount of $5.6 million.  The current year impairment relates to our trade names. The prior year impairment related to the closing of our North Carolina plant, completed in the second quarter of 2011. Consolidation charges totaled $2.1 million in the fourth quarter of 2010.


“During 2011, we completed our consolidation in the midst of a market mired in high unemployment, depressed housing prices, and economic uncertainty.  Housing starts did improve 22% over the fourth quarter of 2010, but remain well below historical averages.  Although the housing starts increase is a positive sign, the other factors mentioned suggest growth will be slow in the near future,” said Rod Hershberger, President and Chief Executive Officer of PGT.

Mr. Hershberger continued, “Sales decreased $3.3 million, or 8.5%, in the fourth quarter of 2011 compared to the same quarter a year ago, due mainly to decreased sales in our out of state markets, where sales were down $2.2 million, or  37.9%.  This decrease is due mainly to our decision to reduce our efforts out of state.  Also contributing to our sales decrease are the Architectural System products which decreased $900 thousand, or 60.0%.”

Jeff Jackson, PGT’s Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, further explained, “Our results for the quarter include savings of approximately $1.5 million from the consolidation which more than offset an additional $400 thousand in advertising investment and the negative impact of lost contribution from lower sales.  Adjusted EBITDA improved $400 thousand to $631 thousand or 1.8% of sales, compared to 0.6% a year ago. We also generated $2.9 million of cash from operations, and finished the quarter with net debt of $34.6 million.”

Mr. Hershberger closed by saying, “The Florida market continues to present challenges; however, the actions taken to date including the consolidation and the refocus on our core markets, as well as our continued belief in our people and our products, drive our confidence that PGT will remain the industry leader in impact resistant windows and doors.”
