PGT Reports 2013 Third Quarter Results

VENICE, FL., October 30, 2013 - PGT, Inc. (NASDAQ: PGTI), the leading U.S. manufacturer and supplier of residential impact-resistant windows and doors, announces financial results for its third quarter and nine months ended September 28, 2013.

“We delivered our highest quarterly sales since the first quarter of 2007 coming in at $64.9 million, up 45.0% over the third quarter of 2012. A combination of improving market conditions and marketing programs focused on both consumers and dealers targeting our WinGuard products continues to drive both sales growth and share gains,” said PGT’s President and Chief Executive Officer, Rod Hershberger.

Mr. Hershberger continued, “During the quarter, impact sales grew 47% over prior year and represented 78% of total sales, compared to 77% a year ago. In addition, sales of non-impact products grew 38%. Sales increased in both our repair and remodel and new construction markets, up 40% and 58%, respectively. Net income was $6.3 million, and adjusted net income was $6.4 million compared to net income of $2.7 million a year ago. I am thankful for the hard work of our employees, both new and tenured, who delivered on our value proposition and drove the positive financial results in our third quarter. I also know we have the talent and drive to improve our operational performance as we drive top line sales.”

Our financial highlights for the third quarter ended September 28, 2013, compared to the same period last year, include:

Our financial highlights for the nine months ended September 28, 2013, compared to the same period last year, include:

Commenting on the third quarter and nine months ended September 28, 2013, Jeff Jackson, PGT’s Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, stated, “The 45.0% sales growth during the quarter generated a 37.3% increase in gross margin dollars. As a percent, however, gross margin decreased by 1.8% due to a temporary increase in labor and material costs in connection with the training of our new employees, including the 301 hired during the quarter. Margin was also impacted by the purchase of finished glass units to support sales in excess of our current glass capacities. These two factors negatively impacted margin during the quarter by 4.8%, which more than offset the 3.0% improvement in other factors including strong leverage of fixed costs.”

Mr. Jackson continued, “We continue to focus our efforts on both training and retaining newly hired employees to improve our production efficiency. We are also expanding our current glass fabrication capabilities by constructing a new facility. During August, we purchased land neighboring our existing campus for $1.7 million and expect operations to commence in our new glass facility in the third quarter of 2014. This action alone should improve our margins by approximately 2%.”

Mr. Jackson concluded, “Cash flow generated from operations was $8.9 million during the quarter. Lastly, selling, general and administrative expenses as a percent of sales decreased to 20.8%, compared to 25.9% in the third quarter of 2012 due to strong leverage in this category.”

Forward-looking statements usually can be identified by the use of words such as “goal”, “objective”, “plan”, “expect”, “anticipate”, “intend”, “project”, “believe”, “estimate”, “may”, “could”, or other words of similar meaning. Forward-looking statements provide our current expectations or forecasts of future events, results, circumstances or aspirations. Our disclosures in this report contain forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. We may also make forward-looking statements in our other documents filed or furnished with the Securities and Exchange Commission and in oral presentations. Forward-looking statements are based on assumptions and by their nature are subject to risks and uncertainties, many of which are outside of our control. Our actual results may differ materially from those set forth in our forward-looking statements. There is no assurance that any list of risks and uncertainties or risk factors is complete. Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those described in our forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to:

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This Press Release and the financial schedules include financial measures and terms not calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (GAAP). We believe that presentation of non-GAAP measures such as adjusted net income (loss), adjusted net income (loss) per share, EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA provides investors and analysts with an alternative method for assessing our operating results in a manner that enables investors and analysts to more thoroughly evaluate our current performance compared to past performance. We also believe these non-GAAP measures provide investors with a better baseline for assessing our future earnings potential. The non-GAAP measures included in this release are provided to give investors access to types of measures that we use in analyzing our results.

Adjusted net income (loss) consists of GAAP net income (loss) adjusted for the items included in the accompanying reconciliation. Adjusted net income (loss) per share consists of GAAP net income (loss) per share adjusted for the items included in the accompanying reconciliation. We believe these measures enable investors and analysts to more thoroughly evaluate our current performance as compared to the past performance and provide a better baseline for assessing the company’s future earnings potential. However, these measures do not provide a complete picture of our operations.

EBITDA consists of GAAP net income (loss) adjusted for the items included on the accompanying reconciliation. Adjusted EBITDA consists of EBITDA adjusted for the items included in the accompanying reconciliation. We believe that EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA provide useful information to investors and analysts about the company’s performance because they eliminate the effects of period to period changes in taxes, costs associated with capital investments and interest expense. EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA do not give effect to the cash the company must use to service its debt or pay its income taxes and thus do not reflect the funds generated from operations or actually available for capital investments.

Our calculations of adjusted net income (loss), adjusted net income (loss) per share, EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA are not necessarily comparable to calculations performed by other companies and reported as similarly titled measures. These non-GAAP measures should be considered in addition to results prepared in accordance with GAAP, but should not be considered a substitute for or superior to GAAP measures. Schedules that reconcile adjusted net income (loss), adjusted net income (loss) per share, EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA to GAAP net income (loss) are included in the financial schedules accompanying this release.
