Roundy’s, Inc. Reports First Quarter 2013 Financial Results

MILWAUKEE – May 9, 2013 – Roundy’s, Inc. (“Roundy’s”) (NYSE: RNDY), a leading grocer in the Midwest, today reported financial results for the first quarter ended March 30, 2013.

Q1 2013

 

   

Net sales increased 4.8% to $983.5 million

 

   

Adjusted net income* was $8.6 million, or $0.19 adjusted diluted net earnings per common share*, compared to $10.6 million, or $0.28 adjusted diluted net earnings per common share* in the prior year quarter

 

   

Adjusted EBITDA* was $44.0 million compared to $48.7 million in the same quarter last year

“We are pleased with our ability to continue to realize improvements in both sales and volume through our focus on customer-centric initiatives, despite experiencing additional competitive openings and increased promotional activity in our core markets,” said Robert Mariano, chairman, president and chief executive officer of Roundy’s. “In the first quarter, we further integrated new service, product and merchandising concepts into our group of 14 test stores in the Milwaukee area. Our early improvements in key operating and financial metrics across these stores gives us increased confidence to begin a roll-out to additional Milwaukee area stores over the remainder of this year.”

Mr. Mariano concluded, “The expansion of Mariano’s, our growth banner, continues on schedule as we recently opened our ninth and tenth stores with three more Mariano’s stores planned to open in the Chicago area in 2013 for a total 13 stores by year-end.”

Financial Results for First Quarter of 2013

Net sales for the first quarter of 2013 were $983.5 million, an increase of $45.3 million, or 4.8 %, from $938.2 million for the first quarter of 2012. The increase primarily reflects the benefit of new stores and a 1.3% increase in same-store sales. Same-store sales comparisons were positively impacted by the 2013 Easter and 2013 New Year’s holiday shifts, partially offset by the negative effect of competitive store openings, the shift to greater generic pharmacy sales and the challenging economic environment. Additionally, same-store sales were positively impacted by a 5.2% increase in average transaction size, partially offset by a 3.7% decrease in the number of customer transactions. Adjusted for the effect of the calendar shifts, same-store sales declined 0.8%.

 

 

* 

Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Net Earnings per Common Share and Adjusted EBITDA are non-GAAP financial measures. See the tables herein for important information about these measures and a full reconciliation to the most comparable GAAP measure.

Gross profit for the first quarter of 2013 increased 2.2% to $262.5 million, from $256.8 million in the same period last year. Gross profit as a percentage of net sales was 26.7% for the first quarter of 2013, compared to 27.4% in the same period last year. The decrease in gross profit as a percentage of net sales primarily reflects greater price and promotional investments in certain markets and increased shrink, partially offset by an increased perishable sales mix.

Operating and administrative expenses for the first quarter of 2013 increased to $235.8 million, from $226.1 million in the same period last year. The increase in operating and administrative expense dollars was primarily due to increased labor and occupancy costs related to new and replacement stores. Operating and administrative expenses as a percentage of net sales decreased to 24.0% in the first quarter of 2013, from 24.1% in the same period last year, due to increased fixed cost leveraging resulting from higher sales.

For the first quarter of 2013, net income was $8.6 million, or $0.19 diluted net earnings per common share, compared to reported net income of $2.3 million and adjusted net income of $10.6 million, or $0.06 diluted net earnings per common share and $0.28 adjusted diluted net earnings per common share, for the first quarter of 2012. Earnings per common share for the first quarter of 2013 is not comparable to the first quarter 2012 due to the difference in weighted average shares outstanding related to the initial public offering that was completed during the prior year period. Adjusted net income for the first quarter of 2012 excluded an $8.4 million after-tax charge, or $0.22 per diluted common share, for the early extinguishment of debt and one-time IPO expenses.

Adjusted EBITDA for the first quarter of 2013 was $44.0 million, compared to $48.7 million in the first quarter of 2012. The decrease was primarily due to the effect of the continued challenging economic and competitive environment.

Net cash flows provided by operating activities for the first quarter 2013 was $13.9 million, compared to cash used in operating activities of $6.9 million during the first quarter 2012. The increase in cash provided by operating activities was due primarily to decreased inventory levels, partially offset by timing of payments for inventory, both of which are related to the earlier timing of the Easter holiday compared to 2012, as well as higher net income.

The Company paid a dividend of $0.12 per share on all outstanding shares of its common stock during the first quarter. During the second quarter of fiscal 2013, the Company declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.12 per share of outstanding common stock, which will be paid on May 28, 2013 to stockholders of record as of May 20, 2013.

The Company presents Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP measure, to provide investors with a supplemental measure of its operating performance. The Company believes that Adjusted EBITDA is a useful performance measure and is used by the Company to facilitate a comparison of its operating performance on a consistent basis from period-to-period and to provide for a more complete understanding of factors and trends affecting the Company’s business than measures under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (‘‘GAAP’’) can provide alone. The Company’s board of directors and management also use Adjusted EBITDA as one of the primary methods for planning and forecasting overall expected performance and for evaluating on a quarterly and annual basis actual results against such expectations, and as a performance evaluation metric in determining achievement of certain compensation programs and plans for employees, including its senior executives.

The Company defines Adjusted EBITDA as earnings before interest expense, provision for income taxes, depreciation and amortization, LIFO charges, amortization of deferred financing costs, non-cash compensation expenses arising from the issuance of stock, costs incurred in connection with the Company’s IPO (or subsequent offerings of Roundy’s common stock), loss on debt extinguishment, certain non-recurring or unusual employee and pension related costs and goodwill impairment charges. Omitting interest, taxes and the other items provides a financial measure that facilitates comparisons of the Company’s results of operations with those of companies having different capital structures. Since the levels of indebtedness, tax structures, and methodologies in calculating LIFO expense that other companies have are different from the Company’s, it omits these amounts to facilitate investors’ ability to make these comparisons. Similarly, the Company omits depreciation and amortization because other companies may employ a greater or lesser amount of owned property, and because in the Company’s experience, whether a store is new or one that is fully or mostly depreciated does not necessarily correlate to the contribution that such store makes to operating performance. The Company believes that

 

11


investors, analysts and other interested parties consider Adjusted EBITDA an important measure of the Company’s operating performance. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to net income as a measure of the Company’s performance. Other companies in the Company’s industry may calculate Adjusted EBITDA differently than the Company does, limiting its usefulness as a comparative measure.

Adjusted EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool, and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of the Company’s results as reported under GAAP. The limitations of Adjusted EBITDA include: (i) it does not reflect the Company’s cash expenditures or future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments; (ii) it does not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, the Company’s working capital needs; (iii) it does not reflect income tax payments the Company may be required to make; and (iv) although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized often will have to be replaced in the future, and Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect any cash requirements for such replacements.
